Great new chicken place. The chicken was delicious and freshly roasted on the premises. The sides were also very good especially the garlic string beans, corn and the new potatoes. The chicken fingers were also freshly made. Deliveries were also very quick. Prices were moderate but you are getting freshly made product. Highly recommended.

If you like Portuguese bbq, then Oporto may be for you, although no one speaks the language. Standard fare is just Chicken and Ribs, both are accompanied with a generous helping of fries, rice, or rice and beans. Oporto is a "churasquira" that compliments the original Portuguese ones.Not much ambiance if you eat in. Great healthy take-out.

You can tell they are still working out the kinks here. Service is very slow. Food is average. However, I like the bar setup and I would definitely come back to sit at a bar and watch a game and maybe try some of the other appetizers.
