Algarve BBQ II Portuguese Restaurant


You don't always have to go to the Ironbound to get good Portuguese BBQ! Algarve opened up right here in Orange back in December 2009, and has been serving up delicious, HEAPING portions of tender grilled meat ever since. Its great for lunch or dinner- just make sure you go with a group, this is the perfect kind of place to order a big plate of food and split it. We went with the standard BBQ chicken for starters and it was tender and juicy and the large plate was more than enough for 4 of us. (And for $12.95, split 4 ways it was also a great deal!). The order also comes with a huge serving of rice and french fries. Make sure to take advantage of the BBQ and hot sauce they put out on the table. Also, I usually can't resist ordering anytime I see plantains on the menu, so we ordered a plate of those. I consider myself somewhat of a plantain connosieur and let me tell you, these were perfectly cooked plantains. They weren't too mushy or too crispy, they had just the right amount of fried-ness. To wash it all down? Try an uptown: a mix of their homemade lemonade and ice tea.
