I love going to Tempero do Brasil because it's really authentic. The staff is Brazilian and friendly, the food is good and the restaurant has that laid-back atmosphere of the beach places in the Brazilian Northeast. I usually have the Moqueca, Bobo de Camarao or Feijoada, which are also the dishes I recommend if you are not Brazilian. Most everything else on the menu is home-style food, something we would eat at home or during a work day, nothing fancy. If you are a Brazilian searching for comfort food, it's great, but not very appealing to other nationalities (at least that's what my American/Australian co-workers told me after eating the Steak and Fries, they said it was plain). REMINDER: Brazilian food is not spicy, I always have to mention that, most people in the US expect it to be like Mexican food - and it's very different! Try the Casquinha de Siri appetizer (crab dish), drink a caipirinha, end the meal with a pudim (caramel flan). Yummy!

Pros: Authentic food, friendly staff

Cons: Parking

Insider Tips

What to Drink

Order a Caipirinha, the Brazilian national drink: similar to a margarita, with cachaca (Brazilian liquor) muddled with lime, sugar and ice.
