I was recommended to eat here. and all I can say is I was very satisfied. This place has a valet parking. The welcoming was good. The environment is cozy, place is kept clean, servers were very attentive. All of them wore the mask properly not under the nose they also have hand sanitizer stands in different areas 100+. Our food was on point delicious I have no complaints every I got on my table was delightful. I have posted some imagies so you can take a look how nicely were served. And all meat kept coming WOOOW!!! SUPER GOOD. The plates and servings are like for people, but if you have a big appetite then is good. (EXELENT). To drink I order a regular mojito not bad the alcohol level was exelent I enjoyed the drink. I also order a red wine sangria 🤩oh my gosh!! super delicious. One of the servers got my attention when I saw him bringing a dish to another table they have ordered a 🐟fish (Rafael one of the servers literally removed the bones & skin off it completely, so if you struggle with the fish bones just ask for him). What an amazing way of removing the bones💯✔️. That's the reason I don't eat fish at all. But after what I saw today that solves my problem. The dessert orange sorbet was served inside of a frozen orange peel thers an image too. Cappuccino was good. I want to thank each one who approached our table from the servers, food runner, bus boy. Thank you all. My kids don't usually feel good in a restaurant, but here we all loved it.... I truly recommend This place. 100%

Good service from the wait staff. Just ok service from the manager. We asked for a corner area for 13 people, but they separated us - 2 round tables. When we asked for the other round table next to us by the wall, they said they couldn't as that was assigned to another party that wasn't scheduled to arrive for another 2 hours! (We reserved over the phone days ahead and had specifically asked for a corner areabto which they said they could accommodate.) Food is overpriced for what they have. I would not mind as much if the food was delicious, but it's not. The only thing delicious is the clams with garlic sauce. The calamari is decent/good. EVERYTHING else is bland, overpriced & not worth your time nor money. Red sangria was not too sweet nor strong - easy to drink with the 1st/2nd glass. I ordered a T-bone steak (~$70). It was a very cheap cut of meat with no flavor at all and VERY sinewy! I have had better steak for less. Even the Spanish rice that comes with it is tasteless. Another person ordered the crusted ahi tuna. Although presentation was nice, again it was absolutely bland. Someone else ordered the porterhouse (~$93). It didn't look like 32 oz & again absolutely bland! I've ordered a lot of steak in NYC, NJ and California (Gallaghers, Delmonico's, Camines, Shadow on the Hudson, Del Frisco's, etc) for MUCH better and with no qualms about spending money on good food. Skip this place. I'm not sure why others are raving about this place. It must be the alcohol talking, or people liking bland food. Unfortunately this is not my 1st time here. I get invited to birthdays, gatherings and other events & each time, I come away thinking the same thing - wasted calorie and cheap cuts of overpriced meat. This place for some reason is popular and gets booked frequently for birthdays probably not by the same people. They pack the place to full capacity! Every seat was taken on the 1st & 2nd floor. (This was on a Friday eve 6pm with no one wearing masks.)

Food here was ok but it is a little pricey. Not saying it was bad because it wasn't just nothing special. I feel I could have gotten the same meal somewhere for a better price. Went on a Saturday night at 8pm and it was packed. Couldn't even get into valet parking so we had to look in the street. Doesn't seem like the best area to be walking around late at night. Make sure to make reservations. The service was good, the issue I had personally was I felt I was being rushed. We were having apps and he came and took my plate away before I got more calamari. I felt they could have come a few times more to check on us. I was looking for a waiter because I ran out of drinks. The place itself is nice and big. We were seated upstairs and it was pretty crowded. No music in the background but it's really loud. I could barely hear a friend 2 seats away. We also had this unnecessarily loud group behind us. It's a 25min drive for me to get here so I probably won't be coming back. I feel I can do same or better closer to me. If I was from the area I would like to give it another shot.

LOVE this place!!! NEVER disappoints... the BEST rodizio and fantastic food!! Great sangria and drinks. They are Portuguese owned and do they know how to do it right!!! No one does it better.... It is a meat lovers dream. So many different cuts of meat served to perfection. They waiters come around with large skewers fresh off the fire and slice the meat off right in front of you. You tell them what cuts you like... they will bring them over too. The fire roasted pineapple at the end is yummy too. Also have a salad bar too. FULL menu is available with lots of seafood as well. Everything looks/tastes amazing!!! Service and staff are friendly, attentive and AWSOME!!! A+++ They also have safe & secure valet parking. Not the cheapest place to eat but DEF worth the $$$$. You get what you pay for and that is EXCELLENT FOOD, EXCELLENT SERVICE and a great time!! Place can get crowded... make a reservation or go on the off hours.

Would go again - Now that I live in Dallas, there aren't as many Brazilian Rodizio places near me. So when one is found, it is a gem! I found Fernandes from a small selection of restaurants in North Jersey. What made me choose them was the 2,000+ reviews with a 4.5 star rating on Google. I'm glad I found them. One of the best Rodizio around North Jersey that I had so far. I sat at the bar given it was a solo dinner night. I ate most of the meats they offer such as picanha, ribeye, beef ribs, short ribs, grilled pineapple, etc. The meats were slightly salty but juicy with the right amount of tenderness. Absolutely delicious. If you're looking for Rodizio, I would recommend Fernandes. And, if you're looking for a solo dinner, sit at the bar where the amazing Thamy can serve you. Valet parking is available on the backside of the restaurant. The interior has a casual but sophisticated vibe. Good for date night or just out with friends.
