Nice atmosphere, it really reminds me of Brazil, and I loved it. The feijoada (kind of bean stew with meat) was good as well, but I found the amount of rice quite desproporcional: the quantity of rice and feijoada were supposed to be equal. It should have more jerked beef too, but is ok if you consider the price.
I didn't get any juices so I can't talk about it.
I saw a few signs/descriptions in English, most of them in Portuguese, but the staff should be able to help you if you need anything. Personally, I think they should have more things written in English, so anyone would be able to order or at least understand what they are going to eat.
They're kind and lovely people, always smiling. If I came back to Tia Maria, I'd try Picanha (the pictures are amazing) instead of feijoada.
Ah, I hope my food was made by Aunt Maria hehehe great experience, good luck for you guys opening a restaurant...
Read moreI'm always excited when a new Brazilian place opens in Dublin.
Tia Maria does simple, flavorful Brazilian comfort food, with a small focussed menu. Delicious!
We got feijoada (bean stew with pork) and picanha especial (steak with fried egg).
The bean and pork stew was really tasty, with nice flavorful spices. Nice and warm in my belly.
The picanha was a little weak in comparison. My wife thought it was too chewy. Cooked properly though: she ordered it medium rare and that's how it came out, which is uncommon in Dublin! (See second picture, showing the proper level of cooked.)
I want to come back to explore the rest...
Read moreAmazing! The food you can see that is super fresh and made with love 💕😊 I loved the vibe. They was playing Brazilian music and the atmosphere was like a housing one, warm and cute. I ordered the Picanha and the dish it’s huge for one person hehehe and the price is great! Super worth it! 😃😍 Ps: guys I have been to a few Brazilians places to have the food and NONE of them have the real pimenta 🌶️ malagueta. And guess what? They finally HAVE!...
