Oh. My. Gosh. What a phenomenal experience I had here! So I came to NY to visit family and I was looking for a good restaurant in Queens, something that stood out in its own little unique way. When I say everything I had was good I mean it and I have serious standards especially when it comes to seafood. My dad and I ended up getting the grilled octopus, steamed clams, and the paella margarita (I spelt that wrong but you get the point). Each dish was in SOLID proportion and was just amazing in flavour - so many explosions. My wait team (because they really be teaming up and theyre efficient) was so awesome, they dealt with my group of five so well. They got my uncle and myself gorgeous birthday cakes, and I honestly couldn’t have asked more of the restaurant I was so happy if I could give a higher rating I would. Oh and the drinks are mod in MY opinion because I tasted minimum two shots in my mojito and it was made to my liking - just sour no sugar. No complaints, great work team!

This has been our date night go to for many years. Now it has become our Mother’s Day spot for the last 2 years. We have never had anything here that was not good. The food is amazing. The staff is the best of the best. Friendly, attentive and they are good for the best advice about the menu and specials.
Great dinner tonight…Very delicious whole fish! Actually the best fish I had this year. The potatoes came with it was also perfectly cooked. The paella was big size and had a lot of seafood in it. And the dessert flan was super delicious - not too sweet, but very tasty, just perfect for after lots of food!
Service was great - friendly waiters and waitress provided attentive service. Clean white table cloth. Great wine from Portugal. And the price of everything was very affordable.
I have recommended this restaurant to the hotel I’m staying at, and I will definitely go to this restaurant again next time when I visit New York.
Drinks are sweet, but our waitress hooked us up by making them a little stronger for us. Very familial and European country side feeling inside. Don't remember the names of the dishes, but you won't regret them, except for the grilled octopus 🤢
We come here every year for a company Christmas dinner. The food is consistently delicious. The flavors are authentic and the servings are generous.

Family styled atmosphere! Very noisy but not annoying, feels like a large family gathering. Staff is always smiling and gracious! Makes for a comfortable, relaxed environment. Drinks were really good and the food was delicious!
It was ok. Was not my first pick. We came with a party 6 adults and 1 toddler, the little one and I are the only ones who don't do seafood.
Not very many options if you don't eat seafood, what's a meal was quite good.
My boys love their skirt steak and fries. I decided to try something new. I got the cod fish cakes, very tasty. Also it was cold I decided on soup. The seafood bisque is rich, hearty and flavorful. All the staff are friendly and very helpful with questions. Don't forget to order the Sangria! This is one of my family's favorite restaurants.
Food is fantastic. Great menu. Atmosphere is relaxed and interesting. Our server Kaitlyn(sp?) was superb from recommendations to service.
There is a small parking lot. We were in NY from Chicago...this is a great place
Walked half a mile to eat here for a couple days in a row while i was using the lirr. This place is fire, everything was good, linguini con frutos de mar is the best. The camaro scampi was weaker as a dish but the only issue i had was the portion size not the taste. Chicken was great, tasty and freshly cooked although i had to wait like 45 minutes for the food to get back it was worth it. This is my top restaurant to come back to if im in jamaica again!
I've had lamb chops many times, it's one of my favorites. But nobody makes them like O Lavrador . They were incredible! Tender , juicy, Perfect !
Salty cod fish Bacalhau and grilled octopus are delicious.
Ordered thru door dash, had delivered to nearby hotel. The half chicken was very flavorful but a bit dry. And it appeared to be cut exactly in half so the protruding bones were an issue, but I survived. Two sides were to be included - didn’t get the salad at all. The saffron rice was enough to feed 5. Some veggies were included and they were very good and a bit peppery which was very nice. Overall a decent meal.
I really enjoyed my experience here. My family and I had a really nice time. The food was delicious (best paella I've had), drinks were great, but not strong enough...service was pretty good too. I would definitely return!
My daughter and I wanted to dine out so we chose this place. Omg we loved it, the atmosphere, the waiters and the scrumptious food served here. We definitely will come again. Our bill came with a lovely handwritten thank you and a smiley face🥰
Very Authentic Portugese food, waiter, and atmosphere. The delicious Sangria was served in Pottery, with a matching Pottery Pitcher. We had the assorted appetizer that included clams in a broth, Portuguese Sausage, Shrimp and Calamari. All were very good. I had Bacala with picked onions and mashed potatoes. Enough for 3 nights and very good. They brought over Complimentary Portugese sweet wine finish our dinner. We will be returning to this restaurant.
Restaurant was clean and comfy. Good parking. Wonderful service by the waiters.. prompt and courteous. Food was tasty and satisfying..we orders the 40$ that fed 2. Ambiance was nice.
