Don Pepe 844 McCarter Hwy - 973.623.4662 Popular Spanish/Portugese Cuisine: Spanish Recommended Dishes:Garlic Chicken and Portuguese Coffee Drink Review:Awesome Old World Cooking and hospitality.

Fernandes 2 Steak House 158 Fleming Ave. - 973.465.4533 $15.01 - $30 Friendly Restaurant serving Spanish-Porteguese food, plus\nBrazilian-style Rodizio (unlimited helpings of various skewered meats). Cuisine: Spanish Recommended Dishes:Rodizio, Seafood, Grilled Meats Rodizio, Baccalau, Beef Natale, Tuna. Rodizio, Galacia Review:Good Newark Iberian with a PLUS Along with the typical (and good) Newark Iberian Menu of Seafood, Paella, Mariscada, etc. There is a huge selection of grilled meats and seafood. But the reason most people are here is the "Rodizio"... Brazilian-style rotisserie meats... lots of selection... all you can eat... and cheap! Service is exceptional, and it's a pretty place to top it off! Secure off-street parking (In a bad area, but worth the journey!) Review:One of the best Of all the Portuguese restuarants in this area, Fernandes is certainly one of the best. First, the place is very, very nice. Really nice decor, beautiful atmosphere... just a very cool place. Second, the staff goes out of their way to make you feel like a VIP. Third, the food is awesome. Whether you're ordering a traditional Portuguese dish, or Brazilian Rodizio, or even a more americanized meal, everything is excellent. And, despite what the person before me wrote, this is NOT in a bad area. Granted, it's outside the Ironbound, and isn't as pleasant as driving down Ferry Street, but it certainly is NOT a "bad" area. Review:You can't say no to Rodizio Nothing beats a Rodizio dinner at Fernandes with a pitcher of Sangria. Try the Galacia for desert.
