Sabor de Minas Restaurante — Restaurant in Newark

I took my husband here for his birthday May 2nd 2022 (a Monday) around 7:15pm .. There was no crowd and we found street parking pretty easy. Because normally parking in this area of Newark is slim to non. When we went in we were immediately greeted by the host and seated.. It was pretty empty in here seeing as though it was a Monday and raining so we had the attention of every waiter / waitress which was pretty nice.

So let me start by saying if your looking for a typical Brazilian all you can eat rodizio... this isn't the place for you... because they do it differently. Instead of the waiters coming to you with the meat selections.. you have to go and get it yourself (look at my picture for examples). This was different for us seeing as though we're use to them coming around with the selection of meat at other restaurants. They have a small buffet with Brazilian favorites such as Fried Rolled Pork Belly, Yuca , Carne de Sol com cebola, white rice and etc. The food didn't look too fresh but it was good. As for the meat some selections of meat were a bit fatty but the taste was delicious.. we were stuffed by the time we got our 2nd plate.. we payed around $74 with a few drinks and that's with gratuity that THEY ADDED. So please be aware.. also they charge you for water since they give you a bottle of water which I didn't know till the end. The service here was nice and the waitress took our dirty plates away fast and checked on us periodically.. the only reason why I didn't give 5 stars was the fact some of the meat was too fatty. Maybe it was just because it was a Monday but the service was GREAT as well as the music. They even have a small stage for a LIVE BAND that performs on certain days. And I love how one of the waitress informed me on certain Brazilian dishes I didn't know by telling me what they were.

Oh and the best part was as we were leaving they surprised us with a piece of Flan for dessert for my husband's birthday!!!! We loved it ❤️ .. I guess they overheard us saying that it was his birthday and we LOVED that they did that for us...

For the price of $24.99 I would go back for all you can eat again. The service was great. I just hope they're like this on busy...

We came thinking this was a traditional restaurant but found out it was a rodízio style restaurant. We ordered from the À la carte menu and we’re highly disappointed. Do not order the chicken parm with pasta unless you enjoy overly cooked pasta with no flavor and semi decent chicken parmigiana. The chicken for the chicken Cesar salad was over cooked and extremely tough to chew. Picanha Grelhada com banana e batata with the cheese sauce was the best choice orders for the table and it still disappointed us. The Steak was not seasoned well, the potatoes had no flavor, the cheese sauce had little to no salt and the fried banana was ok. Overall I was extremely disappointed with our order and the price tag did not warrant such a mediocre meal.

I won’t say this place is a total pass because as it is a rodízio style restaurant perhaps the buffet and meat from the rodizio is better then the offering they have on their À la carte menu. The atmosphere is definitely worth checking out as they had a great music selection and seam to offer live music on certain nights. The bar seemed lively and it looked like they had a great selection of Brazilian bar style...

I recently visited Delícias de Minas and although my experience was good it could have been better.

First let’s go with the pros. The staff is friendly and attentive. Also, we ordered some appetizers and they were tasty. The ambiance was nice.

What I didn’t like: First of all the drinks are expensive at this place. The cheapest beer was $7, so even you order a domestic beer like Coors light you’re still going to pay $7 which is too much for a standard Brazilian restaurant. My wife ordered a Pina Colada which was small and was $15 dollars.

The singer (Andre Neves) and the band were very competent and played good Brazilian music since we enjoy Sertanejo but everything ended very early. We were told they were going to play 2 sets on Saturday. One in the afternoon at 2pm and another one at 10pm. So we arrived shortly before 10pm and they played until around 11:30pm. Then they took a break, came back around 12am and played for about 20 mins so by 12:30am the music stopped, the place was dead and everyone was gone. Being that it was Saturday night we expected music until 2am which is when most places in...
