| - After a failed attempt getting into another restaurant, we stumbled upon this gem! What a pleasant surprise! With rich, hearty, earthy flavors, my palate was ooohing and ahhhing the whole time! This Portuguese influenced hotspot was warm and friendly to start. We had to order at the register first, and then the staff brought our food to us. From the simple ham and cheese croissant sandwich, the salmon and avocado sandwich and the hearty puréed vegetable soup, each person enjoyed their respective dishes. The complex layers of spice and flavors made each bite delightful. Also of note was their stew-like Feijoada, which had a tomato base with stewed pork, carrots, and a medley of spices. It was served with crunchy bread crisps seasoned with various herbs and spices which also paired perfectly when soaked in either the soup or the stew. The Americano and Mocha were absolutely divine as well~~the Americano was similar to gritty Turkish coffee, but much milder and less gritty. The mocha had actual chocolate in it, melting away at the bottom. Finally, the brownies were the last item to mention be use they were dense, but not too sweet. Perfection! I flagged this spot for a future stop!
