Reviews
“ Staff is very friendly , they make a effort to communicate despite language difference. I highly recommend their whole chicken with fries . they have an amazing house made hot sauce and barbecue Sauce. Only critiqué i can give is that its a bit difficult to find parking because of the location but the quality of the food does make up for it . ”

“ This restaurant still amazing giving us so fresh and so delicious in anything on the menu. I'm recommended for you all people try to eat anything from appetizer to the end dessert and wonderful coffee. Very large PORTIONS. The price is soo just right. The best part is Beautiful sitting on Tables and chairs[ after the coronavirus] Every night the workers clean so spotless so clean. The city government gave them capital [A] I'm very very fuzzy and observant eater. ”

“ Huge portion sizes. A 1-person portion easily feeds two. The quality is very good too. This is my favorite "simple to-go" BBQ place in Newark. For under $15 you can grab a sizable container of chicken picadinho w/ two sides. This usually covers lunch and dinner for me Use their hot sauce sparingly as it is no joke ”

“ They are in a new location across the street. Plenty of tables now. Food is amazing. On top of their regular menu they have daily specials. I love their combos because you get so much food, even with a group you might have leftovers. They are also accommodating, I wanted something since I don't eat rice and potatoes so they make me sautéed veggies. ”

“ Listen, there are many legendary Brazilian barbecue places in Newark. Newark is home to places like Pulaski's and such. My personal opinion is Market Barbecue is the best. Even if it is by a little bit, I will still go here first. If you are in the mood for some barbecue at a great price with over-the-top portions, please give this off-Ferry Street place a try. We tried the combination platter which was great. had great portions of pork, shrimp, chorizo, vegetables, rice, and home fries to die for. Just try this place, ok? ”
