Cashew lime & coconut Caipirinhas
Yalissa C.

I was in the area and happened to stumble upon this cute and inviting spot, so I decided to stop in for drinks. Their caipirinhas were flavorful and clearly made with good quality ingredients. I especially appreciated that they weren't overly sweet like you find at some places.

Casa charges a 3% credit card fee.
Titus P.

I was ready to be annoyed -- that credit card fee caught me off guard and honestly felt unnecessary. The oxtail was so good and I even liked the gravy. It was perfectly tender, rich, and full of flavor. I still think they should drop the extra charge, though, because great food like that doesn't need bad vibes attached to the bill. Just because of the credit card surcharge it will prevent me from being a repeat customer and I will warn my friends about this nuisance fee. BTW, the pork belly was really good. The place gets three stars instead of four because of the credit card fee.

Parts of the menu

We just had a wonderful bunch Casa. The dishes were exceptionally delicious and each one seemed to come with a special salad I including hearts a palm. Don't forget to order a side dish of their one of a kind "Shoe String Potato's " which as far as I know do not exist at any other place. In fact order 2 because promise they will go fast. I also enjoyed that you can have a conversation without yelling. Although I go love Brazilian music and goes from favorite to pop. -Enjoy

Service was fantastic!!! Our server was great. We had a group of 8 and had a great time. We sat outside and the weather was really nice. The food was good. We had steak, fish stew, yuca fries, empanadas. Drinks were really good too. I had the coconut water. Others had the passion fruit and lime cocktail which I tried and was very delicious.

Sausage & Croquettes
Katrina W.

I came here on a date with my boyfriend for restaurant week. We didn't actually end up doing the deal because it wasn't really much of a deal and we wanted more flexibility in what we could order. The food was quite good though and the service was excellent! For starters, we got Linguica Calabresa Com Cebola (Brazilian Pork Sausages), Salgadinhos Sortidos (Croquettes) and Caldinho de Feijao Com Ou Sem Cachaca (Spicy Bean Soup). The croquettes were AMAZING (some of the best that we've had). Tip: Don't accept the drizzle of alcohol in the spicy bean soup unless you want your soup to taste like an actual shot loll we had never had this before and when the server asked if we wanted the drizzle of alcohol, we assumed it was like when you cook with wine or something. This was not the case. The alcohol taste was sooo strong and not what we expected. We asked the server if it was possible to get it without the alcohol and they were so nice about it! Didn't charge us for a 2nd one. The 2nd one tasted much better and up our alley. For our mains, we got the Moqueca de Frutos do Mar Com Farofa de Dende (Seafood Stew) and the Picanha Com Arroz de Brocolis (Prime Steak). I loved both of them. The stew was perfect and soothing. The steak was tender and flavorful. Overall, great experience here!

I've always liked Brazilian cuisine, or at least the steakhouses. I have not tried real Brazilian cuisine until I tried this place. My husband and I treated our officiant (also my husband's cousin) to dinner here during restaurant week. It's located in West Village along the 2/3 line. We got there super early so we loitered in the neighborhood until our reservation time. The restaurant itself is not a large place so it filled up really quickly. Service was really friendly and quick. His cousin and I both got the caipirinha, which is the national alcoholic beverage of Brazil. It's made with Cachaça (which is fermented sugarcane juice), sugar, and lime. They have flavored ones like passionfruit which is really good. And it's not in-your-face with sweetness or tartness, so it pairs well with any of the dishes you get. Since it was restaurant week, it came with 3 courses -- appetizer, entree, and dessert. His cousin and I got the empanadas, which were f**king delicious. And my husband got the cheese bread. If you've ever been to a Brazilian steakhouse, the cheese breads are also served there. I didn't know they were cheese breads when I tried them for the first time. I just remembered they were really good and I wanted an endless supply of them. The empanadas come with 3 different ones: beef, heart of palm, and cheese. The cheese one I think I made my husband eat because I can't really eat cheese. But the empanadas were fresh and crispy, not too greasy, just perfect. Entree wise - the cousin and I both got the feijoda and my husband got the strogonoff. I first heard of feijoda on the Netflix show "Final Table". Feijoda is Brazil's national dish and it's basically a black-bean stew with meats and other vegetables. It's so good. It's defeintly soemthing you have to try at least once in your lifetime. It also comes with a side of rice, fruits and veggies, and farofa (which is toasted cassava flour). Everything together with the stew is just delicious and having the sides complements the stew. Everything is harmonious. Finally dessert: I got the chocolate bonbons, I don't remember who got the mousse and who got the flan but both were also really good. I'm not a big flan or mousse person, but it's worth a try. The chocolate bonbons are the perfect ending because it's not heavy. This is a place I definitely would return to and highly recommend. Staff was friendly and ambience is nice and casual.

Yucca crepe - pretty but bland
Alan S.

I'd probably be more generous with my grievances if the price point here were a bit lower, but a modest brunch for 3 here without alcohol cost us about $150. That being said, I do appreciate that they made the effort to offer an array of vegetarian options in spite of the limitations posed by traditional Brazilian cuisine. The vegan feijoada was quite good - smoky and rich flavors, paired with deliciously garlicky kale, spice-dusted plantains, and rice. I'd recommend they keep the seitan and tempeh in the stew, which I thought soaked up the flavor best, but the tofu and especially the vegan sausage had a bit too much going on by themselves. Still, $30 is too steep for this dish. The pao de quiejo were also fantastic (much better than those at nearby Brigadeiro Bakery), and the heart of palm empanadas exceeded my expectations in terms of flavor complexity. The yucca fries could have used more flavor (or some ketchup - we requested it, but it seemed to get lost in the mix). The yucca crepe was also on the bland side, even with a healthy portion of cheese and mushrooms inside. And don't get me wrong, I love yucca, as one of my favorite dishes was the stewed yucca at La Caridad 78 before they closed. Service is friendly but very, very slow. Don't come here on the weekends unless you want to make it a 2-hour affair from arrival to finish, even with a reservation.

BOLINHOS DE CHUVA (BRUNCH ONLY)  Cinnamon and sugar doughnuts
Annie Y.

Casa is a quaint restaurant located on a corner in West Village. The menu is pretty standard for traditional Brazilian food. We ordered PÃO DE QUEIJO (cheese bread) and BOLINHOS DE CHUVA (cinnamon sugar donut holes) to share. I liked the donut holes better as they were warm. The cheese bread cools off quickly so the outside can harden a bit if you don't eat it right away. I took advantage of the Fall Special 3 Course and ordered PASTEIZINHOS SORTIDOS (mixed empanadas), MOQUECA DE FRUTOS DO MAR (seafood stew), and BRIGADEIROS E BEIJINHOS (chocolate and coconut bonbons). I liked the heart of palm empanada best! It was smooth and creamy. The beef empanada was pretty average and wasn't anything special. The cheese empanada was very bare. There wasn't a lot of filling in them so I would order something else next time. The seafood stew was very flavorful and filling. I like how the stew, rice, etc. all came separately so you could scoop how much you wanted on your plate. The bonbons were bite sized and easy to share with the table. It was a good choice and wasn't too heavy or rich.

CAIPIRINHAS
Jessica S.

I loved this spot so much. I find it hard to come across rlly great NYC restaurants nowadays but i found this to be a gem. The food was all Delicious, i got the prato vegetariano with yuca fries and collard greens. The collard greens were Perfectly cooked and so vibrant especially with the jalapeno sauce they give you. I think id personally enjoy some sauce w the yuca, but it was still rlly nice! My friends also liked their entrees. Our lime mint and passionfruit lime caipirinhas were good -- on the stronger side. And we were such big fans of dessert: the corn ice cream is one of the best ive had in a while, and the flan was lovely. I definitely want to come back here again!! The vibe inside is really cozy and warmly lit, i think perfect for a date or to catch up with a friend.

Feijão (beans), Rice, Pão de Queijo (cheese bread), Cuscuz Paulista (like a casserole), Pastéis (like light empanadas), and a salad
Alexander T.

Why we keep coming back: for our first reservations eating indoors after the pandemic, I'm so glad we returned to Casa. We were seated immediately, served quickly, and feasted on some of the freshest, tastiest, and delightfully classic takes on Brazilian staples that Casa always serves up. What we ordered: there are a lot of great Brazilian dishes on the menu here, but we were more than happy this last visit just to split among us an assortment of appetizers we had grown homesick for. The highlights included CUSCUZ PAULISTA that tasted right out of a kitchen in São Paulo, PASTEIZINHOS that were wonderfully savory and fluffy without being too greasy, PÃO DE QUEIJO that you can't replicate frozen or with a mix, FEIJÃO that hit the spot, and some LIMONADA that tasted fresh from the juicer. What to avoid: of everything we've ordered from here over the years, I think the only real disappointment has been the EMPADINHAS. I'm not sure what dough they are using for this, but they'd be far better off just reheating the frozen variety that are now a dime-a-dozen in many Latino grocery stores with Brazilian items. What to expect: Casa is not a particularly large restaurant, but they make the most out of their space -- some big windows facing a not-too-busy street corner do a lot to help alleviate the claustrophobia. The table settings are a little too kitschy for my taste, but I suppose add to that homey feel.

I was duly impressed with Berimbau in 2024 and since it was MY night -- that's where we went. (Reservations, btw always warranted.) The Picahana feast ($149) previously included salad. In light of the national cyclosporiasis crisis, they've adapted their menu: steak, corn farofa, heirloom tomatoes and creamed spinach. If you're in NYC and enjoy red meat, visit Berimbau. The Picahana feast feeds three hungry adults, with leftovers. (Note to self: next time request medium rare; medium is a tad too well done.) I enjoyed their creamed spinach a bit more than T and my daughter. It had somewhat of a gummy consistency, more pronounced when the dish cooled. We were in accord with everything else, particularly their Brazillian rolls (pao de Quiejo) and guava/stracciatella dip. Rather than order from the wine list, we brought our own. $40 corkage fee. If you follow our lead, please call in advance. Desserts are small, but rich. Two for the three of us was perfect. We shared carmelized yuca cake with cupaucacu cream and cacau & caju, a satisfying dark chocolate. There are many celebrated steak houses in Manhattan which are often super-expensive and a la carte. While far from cheap, in comparison Berimbau offers a bang for one's buck and the Picahana cut is nothing short of delicious. Service is friendly and on-the-ball. Plus the dining room is very pretty.

Their happy hour wine selection is small but good. I had the red blend from Chile and it was surprisingly smooth. Of late I have been moving away from South American reds - find them too tannin-y but this was one was an exception. Their free Brazilian cheese bread is delicious. Burrata - so so Shrimp tacos - friend loved it. Burger - son loved it. Artichoke, avocado salad - it was pretty good. I am a vegetarian and eat mostly plant based so I wont seek this place out for a special meal but it is definitely an excellent choice for happy hour if you are seeing a play or want a drink after MOMA. Strongly recommend. While the bartenders are great, they are understaffed in the bar. So there is a bit of delay in every step. Not that fault of the workers.

Definitely get the crispy rice -- every version was great, but the crab and salmon tartare were the table's favorites. For crudo, we got both the yellowtail and the salmon, and the yellowtail was so good we had to order a second round. The skewers were also a hit. Each one comes with its own sauce depending on the meat or veggie, and they come three pieces per skewer, with a minimum order of three. We tried the beef, chicken, and eggplant, all cooked perfectly. We ordered all three desserts. Our favorite was the crêpe cake. Definitely order this.
