Not only is the decor inviting and the staff knowledgeable of the menu/nice to look at, but the food holds up to the staff's boasting description and the laid back atmosphere. It seem purely Brazilian at first--with a shrine to Pele--but this is Brazilian outside of the box, with its Indian and Italian influence: creative curry dishes, bolognese, wild bass with bananas, tasty appetizers (fresh crab, baked provoleta in an iron skillet, and a bruschetta that's overflowing with heirloom tomatoes), not to mention a drink menu that successfully pulls off sakerinhas, quenching sparkling peach mojitos, assorted beer options, and a fantastic selection of wines (tempranillo and verdejo by the glass, along with other less complex options). This place is definitely going to give Cafe Havana a run for their money.
Pros: inexpensive, great for summer
