Point Brazil — Restaurant in New York

Point Brazil is not only the best Brazilian restaurant in Astoria, it is one of the best restaurants period.

Especially for what you’re paying you are really getting a super deal.

The second you walk in you’re greeted by the genuine smiles of the amazing servers RAFA and ANA. You can tell that Rafa and Ana love their jobs and love serving up the amazing cuisine of their beautiful country. Ana’s genuine smile is the definition of hospitality!

The food is beautifully presented with every detail cared for, and the entire place is kept sparkling clean and the gorgeous decor on the walls takes you on a trip to Brazil🇧🇷.

The rice is perfectly fluffy, the pao de queijo is just like what you’d have on a chilly morning in Minas Gerais 🔺, the croquette is perfectly crunchy on the inside but soft and pillowy on the inside, the vinaigrette salsa is extremely fresh with the perfect kick of acidity. Practically all of the desserts will have you going for seconds.

I could go on and on and write essays about Point Brazil but you get the point: if you’re reading you simply must go.

If you’re really ready to feast then go for their all you can eat buffet option. Only $39.99 for that level of quality is really a no-brainer and a deal that is practically impossible to find in NYC these days.

I would give 7...

I eat here regularly. The salad bar always has incredible super food salads like quinoa, avocado salad, corn and bean salad, chopped kale salad etc....The hot buffet always has white and brown rice, beans, several fish selections which are always on point and never taste fishy. I normally never eat fish in restaurants but I will here. The steak is next level, the top sirloin is always cooked medium rare and to perfection. The fat on the top sirloin is so tender and explodes with flavor. They also have other great tender steaks as well like skirt steak, and sirloin roast. Lets not forget the chicken, the best chicken legs and the best chicken breast wrapped in bacon I've ever had. The chicken is never over cooked and always seasoned to perfection. None of their food is salty or over seasoned. They also serve acai bowls. This place is food paradise because you can get all of these amazing dishes for a very reasonable price. ...

Finally got the opportunity to come to this place and I'm salty I didn't come here sooner. It's been a minute since I've had some Brazilian food so I came here for lunch. I'm not even gonna complain about pricing in certain restaurants because it pretty much normal now. I settled on some roast beef, seafood fried rice and some veggies for the pallette. The food was heavenly, especially that cut of beef, it should be a sin for it to taste that good. The seafood fried rice was also enjoyable as well. Probably could've went with some plantains food but by how much my plate was already, I decided to forgo it for next time. The food wasn't the only good thing here, quite a good number of divine ladies on this hot Summer day was a treat for the eyes as well. Very much captured the Brazilian essence of the joint. LOL

Anyway, next time I come here, I'll give their fish fillet a try. The breading looked...
