Generous portions of authentic Brazilian 🇧🇷 cuisine
The ambiance here won’t disappoint!! 😍 I absolutely loved it—stepping inside felt like walking from winter into summer. There’s all kinds of colorful South American design, and the owners are a couple from 🇧🇷 Brazil! So warm and welcoming, full of that South American hospitality 🔥 Now let’s talk about the food! Every dish was amazing! 🔶 Steak Unbeatable value for money!! 😱 Brazilian-style steak that’s insanely fragrant. They serve a huge portion, and the marbling is perfect— kills those overpriced steaks at old-school steak houses. This place is so honest! Highly recommend ordering this! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🔶 Grilled Octopus Risotto Delicious!! 😋 The risotto base with grilled octopus is perfection. One bite and you’re in heaven—haven’t found better grilled octopus 🐙 in JC yet! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🔶 Pumpkin Stew with Shrimp This was a winter special ❄️. Loved the pumpkin 🎃 bowl—it gave cozy winter vibes. The tiger shrimp 🦐 stewed in pumpkin sauce was absolute fire 🔥! First bite was mind-blowing, though it got a little heavy toward the end. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🔶 Traditional Portuguese Egg Tarts So good!! 😋 I’m a fan of this style—they sprinkle cinnamon on top and serve it with a refreshing lemon guava ice cream 🍨. Mixing them is pure magic! More traditional in flavor, but once you get into it, you’ll love it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🔶 Original Guava Juice Freshly squeezed guava juice with no added sugar 🍹. A bit tart, but perfect for those who love the pure taste. They have lots of juice options! ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’m obsessed!! 🥰 Hoping everyone in JC discovers this adorable spot—warm, unique Brazilian food. They even have a brunch menu on weekends I haven’t tried yet… next visit for sure!
