    Whole BBQ Combo

    I really love this place but could you please stop being cheap with the piri-piri sauce ? Thank you The picture is the actual amount that was given to me, at this point I'm ready to purchase 5oz of this from you Loll!

    Very happy with my order. I've had their food in the past but i was very hungry yesterday and this hit different! I was swarmed by kids in my house begging for some because the smell appealed to their senses. I was not aware of the curbside pick up, so i went in to pick up my take out and they were a bit aggressive. However i understand. We can't take chances with COVID. But aside from that the food was great. No complaints. Will be here again.

    If I could give zero stars I would. So I ordered the gardenia vegetable as part of my delivery order and this is what I got. DISGUSTING - scraps and stems! And they had the nerve to charge me $5 for this MESS! Ya'll saw this mess as you put it in the container. I used to frequent this establishment every couple of months, but never again. Y'all just lost a valuable customer. Down right NASTY!

    Obviously burnt empanadas:(

    Usually have a good experience but today was disappointing. The beef ribs were good but the spare ribs were overcooked and so was the empanada (pictured)

    I called in an order to go and the food was ready and got when u got there 15 mins later, total plus. It seemed busy and this was a Saturday afternoon so that was a good sign. I really liked the pork ribs and the chicken wasn't that bad. The fries however were a bit pale and JUST cooked and lacked salt. Rice was kind of hard but I do like that they gave bread, since I was starving and needed something for the ride home. Yet, no utensils and had to ask for BBQ sauce, unlike most places that offer or just automatically provide these types of condiments. Ultimately not a super bad experience and would potentially return.

    So my friend and I ordered takeout from here and she picked it up. Check out what i got verses what my friend got mind you we ordered the same thing. I got nothing but skin and bone on mine. So I called them to let them know. So I walk in and the owner said sorry we can't do anything about it. I said this is what you sell to your customers skin and bones. So she took my platter to show the other cooks and they were breathing and talking over the food. She throws a mini piece of chicken in the same container they had been breathing and talking over. I will NEVER spend my money here again. Stay away from this place owner is nasty!

    Grabbed lunch here on a Wednesday afternoon. I'm from the Ironbound section of Newark which is predominantly Portuguese/Brazilian cuisine, so I'm very familiar with this BBQ style. I'll start by saying that this is a very clean establishment, which I love. There wasn't a greasy feel to it or too strong of a bbq smell where you walk out smelling like a piece of chicken lol. Staff was very friendly and attentive. We ordered a chicken and rib combo, which comes with yellow rice and fries. Everything was great. The rice was nice and loose, the fries were crispy, and the meat was delicious. It was a little on the salty side but no harm done. If anything, it made the bbq better. In the end, the waitress offered coffee and dessert but we passed. I did see cheesecake and chocolate cake amongst other desserts, all of which looked very appetizing. Will recommend and be coming back for sure.

    So I've been wanting to visit this place for years and today I felt for some bbq. The restaurant is…read moreconveniently found near vermella in Union across from Kean. There is a huge parking lot so there is ample parking even since the area is busy. The restaurant when I arrived was very clean. There was only one person in front of me ordering with a young man. The guy behind the counter was very friendly and patient and helpful to pick out the best of the menu. I ordered the 3 meat sampler with ribs, pulled pork and brisket. None of the sides looked too appealing so I left them out and didn't get the combo meal. To my surprise it was a whopping $30 for the 3 meats. Granted it is certainly enough to feed two people, I was expecting a side of some sort to come with it, a roll, something. Last minute I was given a cold slaw. Taste wise it isn't the best bbq I've had but if you're a carnivore like me...it will meet the need. The pulled pork had too many overcooked hard areas and the ribs were just okay. Will I be back? Maybe maybe not. I didn't eat anything that I would necessarily write home about but maybe.

    Got TGTG from in Nov2025. It was for $9 but the retail value said it was for $27. It's a scam…read more Similar to Target/Amazon black Friday sale, they put a very hight retail price to make it seem like there's value. For $9 it's okay for 1 meal. I probably wouldn't stop by after trying this TGTG. I'd probably have to spend at least $60 to get a BBQ from here and it doesn't seem worth it. I would hit up Red white and Que in green Brook for decent BBQ around the area.
