Maybe it was an off night because of the snow storm. I had the paella which was the worst I have ever had. The mussel appetizer was nearly inedible. Very tough and chewy. My daughters chicken and garlic sauce also had an unpleasant texture. The wait staff wasnât able to answer our basic questions. We expected a good meal based on the previous reviews and were very disappointed.

This place has the best food. I really like the Shrimp in Garlic. This is really only shrimp, garlic and olive oil. The best as an appetizer. Then I get the shrimp in wine sauce. A great dish that comes out sizzling. Highly recommended.

Went to the bar area with a couple of friends on a Friday night. I've been commuting for 24 years. Finally, I agreed to stop off at Newark Penn Station and took a short walk to Adega. Great bar scene, plus we ordered churrizo and garlic shrimp, which were fantastic. I'm embarrassed it took me so long to do this, but I'm glad I did. Will definitely be back!Happy to have you, Larry! No matter when you decide to swing by -- it's always the perfect time for us. I'm so happy to know that the food and service were both a big hit, and here's to doing it all over again real soon! -Marco O., GM

Second time visiting here. Really enjoy the local vibe (although seems like more and more folks are discovering!). Bar area was filled with fans cheering on their soccer team, but the dining room was comfortable and quiet. Great service. Food is fresh and good. Easy to walk to Prudential Center for shows. Servings are generous! Highly recommend the Tres Leches cake and flan, both delicious.

My sister lives in Portugal so I have been able to try a good deal of Portuguese food in restaurants there. This place has a wonderful old world feel, is sparklingly clean, and has a diverse real Portuguese menu. There also a dedicated parking lot right outside in an apparently very safe neighborhood.We had among us seafood, chicken, steak, salad, rice, Portuguese soup - all with a nice flavorful touch - and some wonderful vino verde - young green wine - all at very fair prices.We chatted with the owner and had an orange cake dessert made by his wife. All unhurried; all with willing, helpful service. The only thing missing was my sister - still in Portugal.

Had a long leisurely lunch with an old colleague. I had one of the lunch specials, the Paella Valencia. Very good. Lots of seafood, Spanish sausage and a half of a lobster tail. Huge portions. Plan on leaving with a doggie bag. The bread was delicious. Excellent service. On site parking lot. Accessibility ramp. The only negative thing that I can say, if it is a negative--they wouldn't let me package my own leftovers. Said that it was't allowed. This is the first time that I have encountered this. I prefer to put my leftovers in the container myself. They were nice about it though. They didn't rush us and let us stay as long as we wanted. I definitely would go again. It's worth a visit.

The Portuguese cuisine was expensive and average considering what one can find in Newark Iron Bond. To make the experience even worse after lunch with my spouse, is that I was charged a mandatory 15% tip without my authorization. I confronted the waiter who had nothing to say. I sent an instant message to their Facebook page. No response whatsoever.

First off, nice ambiance and a great wine list! It is loaded with a fabulous selection of Spanish wines. Pleasantly surprised. Lots of options on the menu. We started off with some clams to share that were really flavorful and perfectly done. For our entrees we ordered a paella and suckling pig. Both huge portions but both also dry...very dry. Was expecting better. Expensive.I'm glad you appreciated our extensive wine list. It's wonderful you enjoyed the clams as well. As for the entrees, I'm sorry you weren't as impressed there. I look forward to the next opportunity we get to earn another star or two from you.Sincerely,Andres, Manager

We routinely have our holiday party here as it is convenient and reasonable priced per person. I always order the black bean soup as a starter as it is really good. I am also a big fan of the paella. The sangria is top notch and they host a lot of holiday parties. If you are looking to have a large party down neck, this is a great choice.

First time at this restaurant and fell in love with it. Service, wine list and food was fantastic. They bring bread and complimentry soup and we had ordered calimari which was good. We tried paella that was the best I've had in the US. So full we did not experience desert. Some on street parking and a well lit lot across the street for restaurant patrons.
