Carvao BBQ

Both my friend and I go here as regulars to get our favorite delicious burgers!! Love the staff and shout out to Kat who makes the best Pina Colada drink ever!! Burgers are so filling and I love how seasoned the fries are. (Missed when this place use to put oregano on the fries, it gave it so much flavor! Also wish the bergen burger came back to the menu :( it was my favorite of all) But I respect David for doing his best to compromise for my favorite burger. All in all, I can't get a burger from anywhere else. I tried... trust me... This is the only place I must have a burger from when I'm craving it.

Update 5/2022 On my most recent visit, I am sad to day the place has changed. The quality of the food has degraded. It is possible that there are new cooks, and if so, then there should be consistency, but there is not. I traditionally order the usually, but each time the portions get smaller, prices get higher, and the flavor and presentation is absent. I do understand there are hard times upon many businesses but the goal is to maintain consistency to assure each experience is better than the last. Overall, they have lost their direction and focus more on the alcohol. Very sad!

The place is great. The ribs was delicious! Service was pretty large. Parking was a bit difficult since only street parking is available..had to go around in circles before i found a decent place to park.. But its all worth it!

Chicken and Ribs are to die for! Food is always excellent and the drink specials are not too shabby either. Definitely worth the visit and your time.

best neighborhood lay back bar with the best staff,Taylor,Kat, Morgan,Taigo the kitchen crew Always making delicious food thanks Vinnie. This staff is wonderful funny caring such charisma . 🌟👌

My favorite spot in Jersey City! Amazing staff, food, and vibes always. With decently priced drinks, food that fills you up, and music that gets you moving? I suggest Carvao to everyone I know. My partner and I have celebrated anniversaries, birthdays, and amazing times here. We'll be back soon 😁

A south American BBQ joint with a cozy relaxed feel. Bring a date or come cheer on your favorite team. The food is great. The ribs are unmatched in Jersey City.

I still give it 3 stars because of the lively atmosphere and music and karaoke. Fist time visiting jersey. The owner kinda rude when ordering food very rude but I was hungry. I can tell he is the owner because of the way he was harassing anyone who deemed looked like a “a low class”. The owner refused to prepare any beef for me and so was forced to go with the steroids and he was trying to force swine to me. He said beef would take long and he was very reluctant. It was only few minutes after 2300hr and club place opens to two. The food part rice taste good and black beans and I like the way they roast the chicken but you can tell it’s not high quality food. The rice looks like it’s bought pre processed just like the one you get at a dollar tree.The chicken it’s the cheapest you can grab at Walmart early in the morning with the red discounted stickers on while supplies last (those big horse size steroids chicken legs lol. but if you are conscious eater like me, you know you have to survive and one time of bad eating wount harm you. I really don’t like posting bad reviews but owner need to swallow a chill pill and I don’t want to sound personal. A bottle of Guinness 12 oz $6. A shot of cheap vodka $5 but I’m not complaining about that no. I enjoyed. A part from that just Johnny please be good.
