I ordered the picanha, which was very good, although cooked a bit more than I would have preferred. The caipirinha was also very good, and they don't use cheap cachaça (Velho Barreiro, ugh) like some places. É ótimo!

Some of the options were: boiled quail eggs, grill pork loin, grilled salmon, beets, salads, polpetone recheado ( meatballs filled with parmesan cheese), polenta, crab (siri) au gratin, etc. Also for being Saturday they had Feijoada Gorda (bean stew with feet, tongue, and ear of pork) and the Magra (with dry meat, sausage, and ribs) This is a favorite spot for the family because is close by, quick, and very cheap. There is great variety of options, but the food quality is moderate. The majority is in the 3 to 3.5 scale, but I had a couple 2.5. My biggest disappointment was the Picanha w Garlic ( It had too many nerves). However the polpetone, the standard picanha, and the spicy sausage (linguica apimentada) were very good.
