We ordered grilled chicken, fries and rice. The grilled chicken was amazing, I tried one of their Portuguese drinks and it really tasted good. The place is clean but so small and it’s very hard to find parking, so we had to park in front of one of the residential houses in Hackensack.

Fairly good BBQ. The price is the best part of the meal - affordable for the portions. The pulled pork and the pork ribs were rather tough (not tender like expected). The fries and rice are bland. There is a small parking lot in the back, and the inside has 2-3 small tables for seating.

Not sure if they are under new management but they have definitely gone down hill. Unfortunately I had to write this review as a buyers beware, due to the over pricing, quality, and quantity of food. I was a regular here and use to love ordering the chicken, garlic shrimp and rice. This is my first visit in a while and I didn’t order the bbq chicken because it’s gotten smaller over time and very little meat, so this time I only ordered the shrimp and a side of rice. The rice was under cooked that it was still a little hard, and the shrimp are super tiny now, garlic sauce was different and both dishes were salty. This was definitely not worth $20, and it’s understandable to have to increase the prices do to the times we are in but the quality and quantity should never be affected.

I really like this place. I like their food, and would like to give them a better review. The food here is so good, but the people who work here have ZERO personality. I don't need to be entertained, but at least smile once in a while. It's sad

Fast food BBQ. Not great but decent. No eat in space to speak of so plan to take out. I got the pulled pork, it was on a regular hoagie roll and tasted very bland. A brioche roll would have been better. The meat was juicy and tender but average in taste. Fries were soggy.

The price for the portions are ridiculous. The 22 oz steak was cooked to perfection, I asked for medium rare and medium rare I received. I was surprised as the steak was very thick but it managed to be well cooked. The food great all around and the smoke flavors are definitely present as it’s cooked over wood charcoal. The side of rice and beans were big enough for well over two people.
The #3 combo which was the pork spare ribs and beef short ribs was amazing. Nice and juicy in the middle alongside the crispy bits on the outside with the wood smoked flavors. The combo came with the same choice of sides, rice and beans or substitute fries, but we declined as it was such large portions and didn’t feel the need to waste food. I definitely recommend this place and will be returning again. One downside is that the parking is quite hectic and small, but well worth it in order to eat here.

Ordered the beef short ribs and it was all fat. Couldn't even bite it. The fries that came with it were soggy from the grease dripping all over them. The spare ribs were extremely dry with barely any meat on them. We called grubhub to get a refund.

Food was good, but didn’t like the fact that the price shown online/menu is different from what I was charged. If the restaurant is raising prices, and they do not update the menu, they should let you know when ordering.
