The Best Restaurants in Newark, New Jersey | Eater NY

"Comida caseira, pure comfort food, is front and center at this family-owned restaurant, which specializes in beautifully presented Portuguese and Brazilian dishes. After a recent renovation, the setting matches the plates. Order the tutu a mineira (Brazilian grilled pork chop) served with a fried egg, sauteed collards, and pureed beans, or the camarao a guilho (shrimp in garlic sauce) to feel like you’ve traveled to an upscale neighborhood restaurant in Sao Paulo. On Friday nights from 6 p.m., guests can eat, drink, and groove to the new vinyl listening bar program." - Hank Zona
