    About

    Portugal Express is a family-run Portuguese restaurant on South Broad Street in Elizabeth, founded by Emidio and Rosemary Horta in 1996. Its owner menu ranges from garlic shrimp, cod cakes and seafood rice to bitoque, picadinho, grilled ribs, chicken and pork with clams. Homemade rice pudding, flan and serradura finish the meal, with dine-in and takeout available. Diners often praise the substantial portions and friendly, casual atmosphere, though reviews also report uneven service or food and difficult street parking.
