    Our large group loved this authentic restaurant. The staff was a delight to talk to and to order food and drink from. We were really taken care of. Service was amazing and actually all of our food choices were delicious! No one had issues which I was amazed about. Prices looked reasonable on the regular menu. For this weekend they offered a prix fix option for the world culture festival and I was so full and satisfied after receiving the courses. I had a traditional Brazilian option and it did not disappoint. I have walked by this place for years not knowing it was here and once I saw it on google maps I had to make a reservation for my Brazilian group and try them out. We were a large group and we were all glad we came! I recommend this beautiful and cozy restaurant. It was a great official beginning of the world culture weekend for us.

    During restaurant week in DC, my brother and I tried this place and we were glad we did. This was our first time in an authentic Brazilian restaurant and we loved every dish. Our server recommended dishes and drinks most authentic to Brazil and we enjoyed all of her suggestions. The flavors married very well and the meats were marinated and prepared well. The menu selection for the restaurant week was pretty big and the price was very reasonable. I would definitely come back here again! Here’s what we ordered: Bolinho de Carne Picanha Biro Brigadier de Colher Com Amendoim (melted chocolate bar) Caldo de Sururu Churraso Misto Pudim de Leite

    I went here for my friends birthday dinner . Food is good and the service is excellent. This is a very intimate restaurant. It is located in a awkward spot. If you keep walking, you’ll miss it also you have to find street parking or a parking garage.

    Got in on a last minute reservation. The staff was so attentive despite having the room next door full of people for a comedy show. There was one small mistake with our order but they very kindly fixed it quickly and were above and beyond with their service. Will definitely come back again, and will tell everyone I know to visit this amazing restaurant. Sorry no photos, I was enjoying the people I was with. Maybe if I return later this week.

    Brunch here is a hidden gem of DC!! It’s incredible and a really great value! Portions are huge! The fried banana is INCREDIBLE! Not a thing we didn’t like.

    Excellent service, great menu options and perfect for large groups. We were a group of 10. We made it more family style. We ordered multiple tapas and 8 entrees. It was enough to share. We came in hungry and left very satisfied. We also brought our own wine. It was a $15 corkage fee. Feijoada-deli-delicious and generous portions. Cheese bread-yumm! Brazilian Paella-different, but tasty Steaks- it had a good flavor but wasn't very tender. We pretty much ordered everything on their menu. I'm just stating the standouts from our evening. It was our daughters's bday, initially they passed out the dessert menu only to take it back and bring a huge baked Alaska. Enough for everyone at our table to share! It's the little things that make come back :)
