Wow, can’t believe this restaurant was here for 4 years and never knew about it. Took a chance last night and will be back multiple times! Food a mixture of Latin America spices and flavors. Portions priced for value with representative portions. Atmosphere and music had a “chill” vibe. Not a BYOB but the drinks we purchased were god sized and fairly priced compared to other restaurants in the area. At 10:00 I was told they move the tables and you can dance! This place is the total package for a delicious romantic dinner! I’ll be back with family and friends!!!!! I never done a second review but I’ve felt compelled to do one for this outstanding restaurant. The food, servers, price and decor(they change w/ the season and holidays) is second to none. While it’s not a BYOB they do not give “measured pours.” It was one of our daughters birthday and the were first class w/ an outstanding dessert and birthday shot gratis! This restaurant is not to be missed!!!!!!

Great food. Appetizers, Entree and desserts all top class! Excellent service too. Felt like being in an island. Would recommend to anyone who likes south american food. Brazilian food was so good. Very very spicy with great flavour, perfect blend of coconut milk and tomatoes. Very friendly staff too

Great restaurant. Very quick service and really delicious food. Everything from the main entree to the sides was really good. Our server Carolina was very attentive and friendly, even though we were seated outside. On top of that, the drink menu was really nice!

Went for Valentines Day. Amazing food. Amazing drinks. Service was spot on. Only issue was the live band was so loud you couldn’t hear yourself think or speak. If they are going to play to the whole restaurant put more speakers in the back or don’t offer seating 3 feet away from a speaker.

We loved it here! We came with my fiance, his parents and his sister. Everyone loved their dishes and the atmosphere of this place! All of our meals were delicious! We cannot wait to come back. They have options for everyone, whether you are gluten-free, vegetarian or you are picky they have food choices for everyone. We didn’t get any drinks but they looked so good! There was also free street parking when we went so it was easy to get a spot even on a Sunday evening!

I can't say enough good things about this establishment. The staff is absolutely excellent. Our server was named Joao (I hope I'm not butchering his name too badly). We have been there a couple of times, and have not been disappointed at all. The last time we were there I enjoyed the skirt steak which was absolutely impeccably cooked. My wife and I were there with older family members and were impressed by the fact that it was not overly noisy in the establishment. Our water glasses were regularly refilled. You cannot go wrong here. Definitely a place to add to your "Have to Check Out" list.
