Modern Portuguese-Style BBQ Restaurant Coming To Warren

WARREN, NJ — A new modern Portuguese-style BBQ restaurant, Brasa, is coming to Warren Township.

Construction will begin at Brasa this week at its location off Mountain Boulevard next to China City II.

The plan is to open this summer (hoping mid/late June). Unfortunately, due to COVID, permitting took a much longer time than anticipated, said Rob Olsen, one of the owners of Brasa.

The restaurant will be a modern version of a Portuguese-style BBQ, incorporating Spanish and Brazilian favorites as well, but specializing in grilled chicken, ribs, steaks and seafood.

Brasa will offer takeout, delivery and catering and feature a more upscale dining room during dinner hours.

"We have partnered with Unionville Vineyards and will proudly feature local New Jersey wines. Some of which will go great with our Sangria Starters!" said Olsen.
