What's Good HereWhat's Good Here: There are a handful of good venues for rodizio in the Ironbound, but this one is the best. Choicest meats plus good service. Skip the tiny salad bar and save room for the rodizio!

Serious EatsSerious Eats: Their menu is a small novel, but there's really only one thing to order: rodizio, giant skewers of charcoal-grilled meat paraded through the gaudy dining room by solemn waiters with carving knifes.

MC C.MC C: Steak on the tile!

G R.G Rob: Great service. Great food. Gotta have some Sangria and try the Portobello Mushrooms sautéed in garlic and balsamic.

Tom L.Tom Lenox: It's not a Portugese restaurant, it's a Spanish restaurant.

AboutNewJerseyComAboutNewJerseyCom: The category for Don Pepe's is wrong - it is not an Italian restaurant - it's Portuguese. The restaurant is great and a tradition whenever I go to a Devils game or to the NJ Performing Arts Center.
