    What they call Lemon checkerboard and rice (more like cardboard and rice) & a simple salad
    Juan D.

    Their food quality & taste are really bad, & for the price they charge, the quantity you get is horrible. As you can see, the tray is only a little over an inch high. They charge $27.50. The salad was a tiny salad. They charged $11.25. RIDICULOUS!! By comparison, Colonia BBQ has the same dish at $24. The tray is almost 3 inches high and larger. Their food tastes amazing. Their salad tray is the same size as the food tray, and they only charge $11.50. The only reason we ordered from Avenel BBQ is because Colonia BBQ is closed on Mondays. But never again will I order from Avenel BBQ. I DO NOT RECOMMEND AVENEL BBQ

They had a wide variety of food, all ranging from beef, pork, chicken, seafood, and some vegetarian options. They had an extensive wine menu, and my boyfriend joyfully enjoyed a glass of wine. I got the brazilian fried chicken, which was extremely flavorful, and i was surprised there wasn't any breading on the chicken as typical fried chicken does. I much preferred the no-breading style, which I think is the Brazilian way. I would have preferred a boneless dish, as there were quite a few pieces with bones, and it was pretty oily at the bottom of the dish. It came with two very large sides, and totaled around $25. 100% would recommend this dish, but I do think at a lower price point, this could make do with just one side, instead of two, as the main dish was quite large enough to fill me up. My favorite part of this meal was the garlic butter bread that they provide for free. It comes out extremely fresh with lots of chopped up garlic, which is my favorite part of garlic bread. It was a great way to start the dinner off. The service was great and the waiters were extremely attentive. They regularly checked up on how we felt about the food and filled up our drinks. The restaurant was pretty empty while we were dining, but the space was laid out very nicely and the decor was beautiful. Would come again if it wasn't so far!

The bar was PACKED on friday around 5pm when we arrived. There are some picnic tables and seating adjacent to the bar to enjoy drinks, no food. No service, you walk up to the bar yourself. Food was amazing! Portions are gigantic and everything was delicious. Friday through Sunday you need to call for reservations, we tried 3 times, no answer and no call back but we did get seated outside. Service stinks. Automatic 20% gratuity added to all checks. Our waiter disappeared constantly, never checked in to see how are food was, left us wanting more drinks. We had to flag down another server to get the bill, then run it. We will definitely return for drinks, hopefully the bar service is better. The Flan is amazing! So amazing it needs it's own section of our review.
