We had a wonderful time there. Service was excellent, sangria was excellent and the never ending rodizzio was excellent. Definately adding this to our favorite list.

We took a limo here for dinner party, 8 of us. We waited about 30 minutes after our reservation before getting seated. Had some sangria while waiting at the bar which was delicious. Once we sat down the waiter made a rude comment and said 'hellooo' because the person was on their phone and didn't take the menu right away.... More

Authentic Brazilian cuisine in an ethnic neighborhood. What more could you ask for? Portions are plentiful and perfectly prepared. My kids loved the leftovers. Our party of 6 sat for 3 hours without being rushed, which was a treat. Service was excellent. Will definitely be back again.

My husband and I have taken many of our friends to Fernandes - it's probably our all time favorite restaurant. The rodizio that you can see being made through windows, is perfect and a fun way to have dinner. They feed you well and you will never leave hungry, the meals can satisfy even the biggest appetite. Be warned, however,... More

We have been going to this resturant for years. Love the rodizio, chorizio and garlic shrimp. This is the one rodizio style resturant that we have visited and never left hungry. The meats are always done to perfection. It is off the beaten path, but worth the trip.

Was on a layover in New Jersey and a friend choose to take us to Fernandes. She had not been there but said it came highly recommended. Most people clearly were having a good time. Went on a Tuesday night around 8:00 and did not need a reservation. Location was a bit scary for someone from out of town. Valet... More

Amazing place with service that is VERY VERY detail oriented. Atmosphere was great, portions way big...I would say maybe even too big. Had surf and turf with fresh meat and fish..Very well prepared and presented. Pricing just like most of the other reastaurants in Newark very very inexpensive....will be back for sure!

Fernandes has been a favorite for years. They have amazing food and the staff is very friendly. My favorite part of eating here, is that they treat us like family. The rodizio is an endless line of meat being served, which is delicious, and I recommend coming hungry. Seafood paella is also very good and serves several people with enough... More

After reading negative reviews, I determined once again that, people have no idea what they're talking about! The food was delicious, and served piping hot - although it took AGES to get it. A definite go to spot to have a great meal. Of the 3 other people in my group, 2 had chicken parm - really? You come to... More
