Similar to other reviews, I don't speak Portuguese & they don't know a lot of English. They do try to answer the question of 'what is it?' We bought a few things. The best for me was the large rolls that were 3 for $1.
Most items were on the sweet side with a unique flavor. We ate everything so nothing was bad. The yellow cake looking pieces were a Yuca cake. I'm still not sure what the 'Yuca' is but she pulled out the package with 'yuca' on it to try to help me understand. The cake was a very moist & sweet yellow cake that was large enough that everyone in the family had a taste. The chocolate cake was not what we are used to either but it was completely eaten as well.
The sweet items are heavy. I don't know what makes them heavy but my guess would be whatever they use for flour. I am not a cook or baker in any language so take that in their favor. The portions are very generous & reasonably priced. We did not try the hot buffet items as we were not there for lunch & I'm quite a picky eater.
I have nothing bad to say about the place except to ask them for an English label on items as well as Portuguese. Next time I'm at the Navy base I will stop in to see what else I can try. We stopped in around 2:30 pm so it was late for a bakery. Hopefully I can get by...
Read moreA unique place. Our son looked it up in his neighborhood, so we went there for breakfast as a convenience for him. It is not a normal restaurant, but there is plenty of seating.

I tried two different savory pastries and a chicken skewer. All were delicious. No table service is provided. English is not their first language. If you want savory for breakfast, get there early, before 9am, for a...
Read moreThe selection was small, but the food was excellent. Their baked goods are also amazing. The staff was friendly, but there is definitely a language barrier that could cause issues for some patrons. I would highly recommend trying the black beans and rice, the best I've had in a long time. Some of the food was a little closer to room temperature than I prefer, but it was still good and fresh. The location is easy to miss if you're not...
