Great restaurant with super friendly service (the owner) who is not very talkative but love to serves his food. You can just feel it and should try to get to chat with him. The food is super and authentic brasilian! We liked the bean stew and the steak. The banana dish is a bit special and was nit my favourite but since it is traditional I tried it.

I had feijoada, plus they give you a plate with rice to combine. My partner had a bistec which was super delicious! The owners were super friendly, I wish I could speak Portuguese to have a proper conversation about the restaurant. I would recommend it to anyone, but please be aware this is not a typical flashy instagram restaurant but rather a traditional restaurant with...
