Cooking on a stone. Order steak, tuna, or shrimp, and they bring you a stone, which must be heated to 400 or 500 degrees (maybe more) and you cut your tuna (which we ordered) to your size specification, grease up the stone with oil or butter and cook the meat to your specifications. I have never encounter this before. Cooking smoke fills the room.But the stone cooking is just one item out of hundreds on the menu. A note to the wise, order less than half of what you think you might eat. The neighborhood where this resteraunt is located reminded me of the polyglot populations, populated by various legal immigrant Europeans after World War II.

We stayed in Elisabeth overnight to catch a flight from NLIA. We found this great neighborhood restaurant, the service was pleasant, not over bearing, giving us plenty of time to choose and answer questions. Be aware the portions are very large each dish could have served 2-3 people. The food was very delicious as well as the dessert.

The best local Portuguese restaurant and bar outside of Newark. Always tasty favorites and specials. My favorite red sangria. Love the special grilled swordfish with tomato and mozzarella. Sandra knows her regulars and goes out of her way to ensure great service and Paul the owner will always make sure your meal is to your liking.

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.

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.
