"Shared the cod patties for appetizer, and the Fejoada Completa and the Muqueca Completa (Bahian style). Both were delicious. The restaurant is very cute and casual inside. Comfortable with children; added bonus is their bathroom has a changing table. Service was very friendly. Street parking only, but we had no problem on an early weekend night."

"A second fryer dedicated for gluten free!! I was in fried plantain heaven!! The very knowledgeable staff were also quick to inform me that the muqueca, with it's accompanying rice and muqueca "gravy" (thickened with cassava flour), were all gluten free! It was a nice feast! Ready to go back and try more options on the menu!"

"Their bacalhau (lightly fried salted codfish) balls has significantly higher mashed potato content than fish. But it was good. In a potatoey type of way.If you're looking for Bahia style moqueca stew- with coconut milk then oops wrong place. They serve Espirito Santo style (without coconut milk). Which is pretty good too.~ $22 for a moqueca c..." Read more

There were plenty of parties eating but there was no wait in getting a table. The menu is almost all seafood, which was fine with us, I think the only items were a co..." Read more

Cute colorful decor, an atmosphere and waitstaff that are warm and inviting. Now let's cut to the chase. We ordered the Fish Muque..." Read more

"The food is slow cooked so order some appetizers and a drink from the bar. The service is very friendly and these savory tastes of Brazil are perfect anytime for lunch or dinner."

"This restaurant has great food but the service was so terrible I can't in good conscience give it a good review. Judging from the other reviews, our experience was not an aberration. Our server made a big fuss that we were a party of 7, not 6, as one our friends has a four week old baby. I asked for an extra glass three times to three different servers and..." Read more

"Very good food, BUT

We were only 2, stay there for 20 minutes, and the check came with a 15% tip. And they still ask for gratuity!!!!! do you want me to pay your bills too?

I don't like this to happen, and the worst part is that we were only 2.

That's rude and is not the way to treat customers."
