Nuno's Pavilion

Best happy hour in Linden. Free (really good) Portuguese/Spanish food from 4pm-7pm and dollar drafts. If that's not enough reason to stop by, the actual menu is scrumptious. I had a seafood in garlic sauce over rice and I nearly went out to buy a time machine so I could rewind and eat it again. Seriously. I couldn't find one in the area though.

There's a downstairs area with some nice pool tables and an additional full bar and bathrooms. The bottom floor is used on the weekend as DClub, and it gets pretty poppin' down there. I have never attended the club before, but it's mostly a mix of hip hop and dance music based on what I've heard.

Oh and if you go during a 49ers game, the owner Nuno will give you a free drink every touchdown they make.

I bought a <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Frestaurant.com&s=c5fe485af4df376130bee54f875814d79c4d7913e1258123b1206d2bdbf4873b" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://restaurant.com</a> certificate for Nuno's and decided to give it a try on a Wednesday night.  Little did I not know, the restaurant is only open on weekends, so we had to eat in the bar.  No one else was eating, so I should've taken that as a warning sign.  

Our waitress was very friendly and it looked like a very diverse crowd.  A lot of people go there to play pool or have a drink.  My boyfriend ordered the T-bone steak and thought it wasn't too bad- but I ordered the prime rib and found it to be very gamey and fatty. It was almost like it was old and they tried to mask the left-over flavor by piling on parsley and a tangy sauce.  Both dishes came with yellow rice and spanish potatoes, which were average.  I wouldn't mind coming back here for a drink, but I'll pass on the food.

This place is very very good and I am often not that complimentary of places in Linden.

I came here for dinner with people from work.  I had the beef stroganoff which my wife used to make but now claims is too fattening.  I love noodles and beef so it was a natural choice.

Everyone liked their meals and we all went back to hotel happy.
