With Brazilian cuisine you usually expect a predictable menu but Malagueta was different in the variety and creativity in its menu.
The use of spices and ingredients was creative, different and simply delicious. I am not a fish fan but even the pollock I tried was to die for! Everything was in perfect portions and very satisfying. The presentation of the food was very french style and makes you feel as though you are at a fancy restaurant. And honestly, the food at Malagueta was better than most over-priced, fancy restaurants Ihave been to.
I highly recommend Malagueta if you are in the mood for a wonderful and different meal. And the fact that it is tucked away in Astoria Queens is a plus as it keeps away those irritating ""too good for Queens"" types out.
Pros: Wonderful Food, Helpful Waiter, Fairly Priced
