very trendy little venue, perfect pre-clubbing stop.. delicious fusion finger foods, full bar, and totally shi-shi atmosphere. check out the pictures

been here twice. once with & once without reservations. either way. was treated with great service. but of course, we were ordering way more than normal (5 plates for 2 people.. haha)

make sure to get the yucca bread! (the reason why i got to brazilian BbQs)

Dishes I tried:

This small plates restaurants used to be one of my favorites, but the quality of food has taken a dive since i first came here.

The atmosphere and the bar is interesting, and worth a visit… but only for the drinks.
