    Great food! We just thought that 2 things were missing to be an authentic Brazilian churrasco: chicken heart and farofa! It would be nice to have dessert options at the buffet as well.

    The menu here is varied and has several highlights depending on your tastes. They also have an interesting cocktail list but the wine by the glass is very limited. It's not obvious how to pick dishes off the menu regarding portion size and does not follow the traditional style . However sharing plates and mix and match gives this style something different. The drinks were very slow to be served and one main course not to our liking was removed from the final check. We were also informed on arrival that our table was for two hours only. That was a surprise and maybe that's enough time for some but we like to take our time over dinner and a $500+ bill. Overall it was good and we will return.

    The swordfish was amazing. Service was excellent. The pinapple upside-down cheesecake was so delicious I was sorry that I was too full to finish it. We ordered the Dungeness crab bisque. Our server warned us that it was rich. No joke. Yummy, but you could eat it with a fork. Could only eat a bit to save room for diner. But the swordfish *chefs kiss*!

    We spent around $50 per person, it was busy because it was Valentines but the service was exception regardless!! Super kind servers and delicious food and drinks! We love coming here for date night, but when we come for birthdays or special events they always make it special. Joci (I hope I’m spelling that right) was our server and was so kind and attentive!
