iberia restaurant & tavern

how do they hide the jockey's strap marks. went here late night as they were recommended as best late night restaurant near harrison nj. waiter was in rush to get order so service was poor throughout entire meal. my son and i both got portuguese steaks which was prettygooddespite not being cooked to temperature ordered. my poor wife suffered through steak and shrimp special that had undeveined smelly tiny raw garlic shrimp in a puddle of fake melted butter. her steak was purple raw and full of so much grizzle and vein that she literally attemted to chew through two small cuts of steak and 1 ea. shrimpbefore giving up. when the waiter asked if she wanted it wrapped to go she told him it was terribly unedible to which he replied "oh" then handed us the check for all three meals!! stay away!!!

verygoodas long as you are not expecting fine dining.... the food is hearty and plentiful, the service adequate at best and the presentations are more about bounty and less about pretty. that said, everything we had was cooked well, flavorful and big portions. they had lobster (2 for ~$30) cooked one of 4 ways - our group tried it each way and each way was fresh and good. their garlic lobster got the top rating from the group, crab-meat stuffed second and the broiled third. sangria (red) was verygoodbut expensive given how much ice is in the pitcher therefore it yields only a few glasses. busboys are more important than the waiters as they are the ones that look after you once the order is taken - you only see the waiter for your order and the check.
