Seafood, Portuguese style. GIGANTIC mariscada/paella servings. Enough for 2, possibly 3 people. You can't go wrong with this giant metal pot filled TO THE BRIM with clams, mussels, shrimp, lobster,...

As with all of the finer Iberian restaurants in the Ironbound, the first thing you notice when you approach the restaurant are the beautiful, typically European solid wood doors. You can spot the good...

Do you like meat and seafood? Iberia is the only place to go for it in Jersey. Order some paella and the Rodizio or aka all-you-can-eat BBQ chicken, steak, pork, turkey, ribs, and sausage. However,...

Iberia is the WORST service I have ever experienced in my life. The waiter hit me with a menu... I guess I forgot to wear the suits of armor (visible in the restaurant). Why? Because receiving a...

I must be a picky star-giver. The previous reviewer for this restaurant gave five stars here, but I'd only give it three. Few doors down is Fornos and I feel their food is much better than here at...

You only find me in Newark, NJ when I'm dining at this place. Hands down the best Portuguese restaurant in the "Ironbound." I wouldn't have kept coming here for the past 10 years if I didn't think so....
