I will repeat this as my palate was pleased with the offering. My spouse enjoyed his usual meal with lox and cream cheese although the capers all gathered on one end of crepe so he missed the saltiness in each bite. Since we dined long after the lunch crowd had eaten, the restaurant was quiet and peaceful. It's one of our favorite places to relax and enjoy food with an international twist.

The meatball appetizer was three mini meatballs. I've seen meatballs on sub sandwiches bigger than these. The lasagna, was really without any sauce. It was a bolognese sauce. Also it lacked the stretchy cheese pull that one expects from a lasagna. The pasta dishes from what I tried was a little to al dente, there was too much chew in the pasta. That said for the prices that they charge to not offer a side salad or at least some bread with the meal is disappointing.

We were a party of six, and everybody seemed very happy with their meals. Service was fine, ambience and noise level fine. Menu is similar or same as at other locations, with many choices and lots of variety on apps, entrees, sides and desserts. I was disappointed in one thing....the gumbo they served. The base was not at all like a roux should be; it was much more like the tomato-based sauce often used in soups. It was tasty, but anyone ordering a gumbo because they want the real thing will be sorely disappointed. Still, we'd go back any time for a nice meal.

We have been going to Copper Celler probably for as long as they have been in business. I think…read moreit's pretty safe to say that not only has it been one of my parents, favorite restaurants throughout my life, I've always enjoyed it too. We were disappointed when they closed their original location, but we have tried to be supportive of this location, and my mom has always liked cappuccino. It's a cool idea to have two restaurants and one with two different menus. We had a disappointing experience. The restaurant was not particularly busy looking, so it was odd that it shook so long for our wine and drinks to come out. We ordered salads, specifying. We wanted them as soon as they were ready, and then we ordered entrées at the same time. Our salads came out, which took more time than seemed necessary, and before we could even start eating them, our entrees came out. The runner who brought her entrées, seemed confused as to why we weren't ready for our entrées. As we didn't have enough room on the table, we asked them to take our entrées back until we finished our salads. Our server, who seemed very pleasant, never came to check on us until after our entrees were brought out a second time & never mentioned the error with the pacing. Our fish was on the dry side, which could probably be attributed to the fact that it went back to the kitchen and sat under a warming lamp. We had a great time, because why would we let dinner spoil our evening, and we'll be back because I believe in supporting copper cellar, but I don't know that first time guests, or non-loyal guests would be willing to overlook an expensive meal that wasn't treated like it was expensive by the kitchen or wait staff. Hopefully, it was just a bad night, as every restaurant has them.

We both had the full experience- all meats, salad bar, sides and a dessert. You have a two-sided coaster (green/red) and you flip green up if you want a server to bring you more meat. So many amazing choices- picanha, filet mignon wrapped in bacon, top or bottom sirloin, lamb, chicken legs, pork sausages, and it wasn't on the menu but a really delicious teriyaki chicken. They will cut the meat from a skewer at your table and you may enjoy all you want. I skipped some of the choices and had extra of a few. My favorites were the top sirloin, picanha and the lamb. Everything was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The salad bar had a great selection with everything being fresh and a server always checking it. The manager checked with us and this was one of the best parts of the experience. We truly felt like valued customers and he ensured we had anything we wanted. This restaurant may have had the best service we have ever experienced. Finished the evening with a slice of key lime pie and my wife had the chocolate eruption cake. Both were delicious and we plan on going back soon.

I was craving a steak and knew about Brazeiros when they first opened many many years ago. I thought, since I was starving, it would be a huge opportunity for me to take advantage of the all you can eat meats. There was one problem, I was dressed in athletic shorts and a shirt. I know there isn't a dress code per se, but I didn't want to cause issues either looking like a bum on a Saturday night. I called them in advance, otherwise I would have time to Texas Roadhouse. The hostess was very nice and told me not to worry. That's exactly what I wanted to hear! I got sat immediately and I went to work. Flipping my coaster to green, I ate non-stop meats (mostly picanha, since that's my favorite). I do like how they have salt shakers and pepper at the table. Granted some of the complaints for Brazilian steakhouses is that it's too salty. Brazeiros wasn't salty enough but having the option to add my salt and pepper to every sliced meat was great. I also like how they have the grilled pineapple, which is something not all churrascarias do. I ate continuously for an hour and a half and then went on my merry way back to Nashville! Highly recommend this place if you're in the area! The staff is so kind and accommodating!

Speakeasy Elegance meets Neighborhood Warmth Finding a…read moredining experience that feels both effortlessly sophisticated and incredibly welcoming is a rare feat, but Bocados Latino Fusion manages to hit that sweet spot perfectly. Nestled in a modest storefront, this nine-table culinary boutique transforms an intimate space into a high-end destination that feels like a well-kept neighborhood secret. The moment you step inside, the outside world fades away. The dining room features a sophisticated design with striking black walls and ceilings, giving it a cozy, moody, "speakeasy-style" vibe. Seating layout: It's intimate--hosting just nine tables inside, alongside a sleek 10-seat bar. The Patio: In the warmer months, the energy expands beautifully to a 25-seat outdoor patio, making it an ideal spot to linger over drinks. Whether you're stopping by for an after-work wind-down or a celebratory date night, the atmosphere feels exclusive yet completely unpretentious. The cocktail program, curated by mixologist Gutierrez, is an absolute masterclass in original flavor profiling. They balance striking visuals with complex spirits: The Mezcalita: A showstopper. Crafted with 400 Conejos Mezcal, triple sec, agave, and lime, it features a striking, mysterious jet-black hue thanks to an infusion of activated charcoal. Breeze Blossom: A refreshing, vibrant purple cocktail combining Indigo Gin, St. Germain, lime, cucumber, and fresh mint. Guarito: A delightfully dangerous orange-tinted drink featuring Mil Demonios Aguardiente (a Colombian liqueur), guava syrup, orange soda, and lime. The Extras: Beyond the creative originals, they boast an impressive lineup of 18 different Tequilas and traditional favorites like the Carajillo or a crisp bottle of Argentinian Quilmes Clásica beer. Chef Maria Felipe Gonzalez's culinary philosophy centers on elegance, fun, and deeply authentic flavors elevated to fine-dining standards. The menu is intentionally designed for sharing, with dishes that interact and complement one another beautifully. Must-Order Highlights: Lobster Andouille Empanadas: A total triumph. These cornmeal turnovers are stuffed with rich lobster meat and a savory, smoky andouille sausage sofrito. It bridges coastal luxury with traditional comfort food in a single, perfect bite. Cevichoto: A playful nod to its Choto-area location, this refreshing shrimp and tuna ceviche is brightened with mango and cucumber. Bocado Shrimp: Crispy, delightful shrimp served alongside piquant, flash-fried shishito peppers. Pairing this side-by-side with the Cevichoto yields an incredible contrast of warm, crispy crunch and chilled, acidic brightness. Gambas del Pacífico: An absolute do-not-miss main event. These are jumbo shrimp stuffed with tender salmon, wrapped snugly in smoky Benton's bacon, and finished with a decadent drizzle of chipotle aioli. Bocados Latino Fusion is a masterclass in what happens when passionate chefs have genuine fun in the kitchen. The flavors are sharp, the cocktails are inventive, and the moody, intimate atmosphere makes you want to stay for just one more round. Incredible service. Check it out!
