Ok let me just say-- I lived in Brazil for six months and have been searching all over LA for food that even slightly compares to the food in Brazil. Well, Sexy Beans has THE BEST comida brasileira (brazilian food) that tastes just like the real thing!!! :) other places might specialize in other Brazilian cuisine BUT this place does real Pratos Especiais (special plates) the way it needs to be done!! I mean literally- the BEANS are Unbelievably delicious!! I've not found it's equal anywhere in the states. It might even be BETTER than what I tried in Brazil itself... and that was amazing already!! But....This recipe though... it's marvelous!! :)))) the feijão/feijoada (beans), the picanha (special Brazilian steak), the frango (chicken)!!! I love it all so much and crave it all the time!!! :))) Since they opened (only a couple of weeks ago) I've ordered it four different times already ;)) I truly have deep cravings for those beans and that steak!!! :))) Thanks so much everyone at Sexy Beans for being the most authentic and delicious that I've found :))) and please be prepared for me to order from y'all at least...

The rice, bean, farofa, collard greens and vinagrete combination tasted like home, like lunch with the whole family at grandma's house, like coming from school and going straight to the kitchen for lunch. The meats were excellent, but I can live without them if I have rice, beans, farofa, collard greens and vinagrete. If you have the chance, do yourself a favor and taste...
Read moreFINALLY! An amazing Brazilian restaurant that does it RIGHT! My wife and I have been searching for food like this for years in Los Angeles, to no avail. This food is as good as it gets. The food is authentic, and clearly made with love and care. We tried it on a whim while driving through Culver City, and it has now become my weekly and often times daily go-to for great food. What started with a curious impulse has now become a culinary obsession for my wife and myself. Beef, chicken, vegetarian, chili, and sandwiches are all unbelievably tasty, fresh and fun. Needless to say, we will be back...
