What can I say? The ambiance was great. The music was great. The drinks were great. The servers were friendly and capable. The menu was inspired. The food was bad... and that's what I care about.
I went with a group of 8 and we ordered and shared everything. The Brazilian spicy shrimp entree was quite good as was the beet salad.
Everything else ranged from forgettable to poor. Most disappointingly, I ordered the Brazilian strip steak and it was like something I would get at a diner ala steak and eggs (without the eggs). This might sound harsh, but it is totally accurate. Sergio's employees - if you are reading this, my apologies, but you need to buy higher quality meat. You are probably getting furious and referencing that you buy your steak from some local organic rancher who charges you an arm and a leg. Well find somewhere else. Whole Foods' meat counter sells exponentially better steak than this.
The beef kebab appetizer tasted like nothing. Literally, chewy nothing. The fried cheese tasted like a mediocre mozzarella stick, albeit in a wedge shape. The pizzas had interesting toppings but were totally forgettable. I wanted to love this place but the taste fell far short.
