My first trip at Little Brazil in Collins Avenue was good. We ordered the Chicken Parmigiana/Milanesa, Picanha Palito, and the Camarão ao alho e óleo. The chicken parmigiana is huge. Crispy on the outside and tender inside. The Camarāo is served with olive oil and bread. The Picanha Palito were strips of delicious picanha served with french fries. They were all good! The place have a casual dining atmosphere. Street parking is available. Service was good and hospitable. Check it out! read more

Let me start with the service... the best that I can remember in Miami Beach. Rafael took amazing care of us from the second we arrived. Patricia was equally as welcoming and amazing. We decided to try to lunch special since we recently moved to this side of town and my husband is Brazilian. Not to mention we both took the day off. The food!!! Ok, the lunch special was out of this world. $15 for picanha!!! Of course we had to try the collard greens and dessert. look at the pictures. We didn't leave a crumb of any anything! The food arrived quickly and HOT!! Steaks were cooked to perfection, beans were full of flavor. Even the French fries were great. I'm not a huge fan of collard greens but these were terrific. Very fresh and garlicky. We loved the flan too. Overall our top pick for lunch in Miami Beach!!! You cannot match the service and good and prices anywhere!!!!! read more

Found this place because of great yelp reviews when I was visiting Miami for the day. Restaurant wasn't busy when we walked in so the ambience was nice. It was my partner's first time trying Brazilian food so we were excited to try different items on the menu. First off, I want to say that the food was amazing. Truly mouthwatering flavors and textures of both the appetizer and entrees. Now for the negative and the only part of the experience that was a major disappointment. The service by the waitstaff was truly awful. Ordering food took so long and it took forever just to get a glass of water. When it came time to check out, our server seemed to avoid us when I looked around and even raised my hand to ask for the check. I finally had to stand up from my table and go back to the bussing station to ask someone to deliver the check. Well it was very disappointing to see that the bill had already included a 18% service tip for our server. Now the service made sense, no matter how attentive or not the servers are-they'll get a pretty great tip regardless. This was a disappointing end to an otherwise fabulous tasting meal. I don't think the kitchen should suffer for the lack of front of house service so I would recommend trying this place still but maybe get your meal to go! read more

What's not to love! Little Brazil is amazing, serving up truly authentic Brazilian food. The dadinhos de tapioca were delicious, and the pepper jelly made the perfect dipping sauce! I usually don't eat pork, but the Linguiça Com Mandioca (Brazilian sausage with yucca) was unbelievable, especially with the chimichurri sauce. It was so good that my boyfriend and I came back the next day. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're leaving the beach! read more

The star for me is their profiteroles! They're incredible and a must try if you're gonna visit, so so good! Definitely the best dessert to try. They're even good left overs They have plenty of indoor seating and outdoor as well. Bathrooms are always clean and the ambience in the restaurant is always great.

One of our favorite restaurants in Miami beach! The ambience is always great and upbeat, great music and the service has always been incredible as well. My favorite things to order are their freshly made fruit juices, lemonade or passion fruit in particular. Their fried kebabs to start with and of course the picanha as an entree. I always end up ordering their profiteroles for dessert and they are delicious and the perfect way to end your meal. read more

Hidden gem in North Bay Village serving tasty Brazilian dishes. As we walked in, the place is inviting and cozy. The servers also greeted us with a smile. Ordered the Dadinhos de Tapioca to start. These fried cheese cubes were very savory. First time trying them and I'm hooked. We also got the Sauteed Garlic Shrimp. It was delightful. That garlic sauce is perfect to dip the bread. For the main courses, I got the Grilled Picanha of course cause I love meat :) It was perfectly cooked and juicy. Also came with farofa and rice and beans. My friend Jojo got the Bife Piemontese which are beef strips on white creamy mushroom rice similar to risotto. So delish. For the finale, we shared the Profiterole. Wow! What a presentation! Served on our table, this tower of frozen puffs was a sight to see when our server poured the melted chocolate brigadeiro. Absolutely divine! Awesome place to dine with your friends and family. It's casual and affordable and the food is delicious. Good portions too. read more

Traveling to Brazil has been on my bucket list for YEARS. My favorite way to mentally transport there? With picanha with (a few) caipirinhas! This weekend I stopped by this foodie haven to order my go-to dishes (and a few new ones, of course.) Little Brazil comes highly recommended -- be sure to stop by on their karaoke nights to try your luck at some of Brazil's most loved songs. Must-haves include: Caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail, made with cachaça, sugar, and lime. Red Sangria Dadinhos de Tapioca, tapioca and cheese fried cubes with red pepper jelly Pichana Steak with rice, beans, farofa and vinaigrette Fraldinha Grelhada Steak with fries and heart of palm sauce read more

I've been years ago and this is the first time back in awhile. Mixed feelings because we did enjoy the food, but the prices have increased dramatically which was a turn off for me. Beef stroganoff used to be $18-20...now it's $30?? Four small pieces of pão de queso is $8? Again all good, but disappointed in how much everything has gone up. We really enjoyed the steak, it was cooked well and the flavor was great. The garlic shrimp were tasty as well. We also ordered the chicken stroganoff and it was good but didn't taste like stroganoff to me, the sauce was very mustardy/yellow. Overall, food is good but new price increases put a damper for me! read more

Decent spot in North Miami. Not the best Brazilian I've been to but wasn't the worst either. Appetizers were quite small and pricey for what they were. Server tried to push for alcohol and the more expensive entrees several times during the ordering process, but with 2 vegans and 3/4 of us being non-drinkers, there weren't many options to begin with. Once declined, she seemed a bit upset and rarely checked on our table afterwards. Which was quite upsetting since I thought everyone was pretty kind in the beginning. Wouldn't come again, but the food was good enough for the visit. read more

WOW is what comes to my mind when I remember the flavor of the food in this place. Went there last week. I thought i wrote the review but apparently I forgot . This is a little spot in the Collins Ave. Once I got there i realized that Parking is complicated. Pretty much you park in the street and they are only around 6 spots. Not sure if there is a public parking close by. I didn't see it. I was lucky and found a spot right away. We ordered: -COXINHA: Is a croquette filled with chicken and cream cheese. It was delicious. Crispy in the outside, Soft and creamy in the inside -BOLINHO DE BACALHAU: this are croquettes made with codfish. Amazing. You can taste the codfish and feel it in little pieces. -PICANHA: grill steak topped with garlic and served with rice and beans. The steak was on point. We ordered medium and it was perfectly cooked. The beans were amazing as well. Its hard to find good beans so this one really surprised us. -MOQUECA: This was the plate of the day. They offered it and we decided to try it. Its a seafood stew that comes with white rice. It was really good. My only concern with this one is that I think the portion can be bigger. Even the appetizers were bigger than this. and last but no least. Our favorite part. The dessert. -PROFITEROLE: OMG! I still feel the flavor in my mouth when thinking on this. YOU NEED TO TRY IT. They are small hollow pastries, filled with ice cream and covered with hot chocolate fudge! DELiCIOUS. We were so full that we couldnt finish the dessert and I almost cry for it . I will come back just to get more of it. The service was really good. When we went they were only 2 other tables besides us, and the 2 waitress were amazing and attentive on everyone. This place is definitely a little gem from Brazil. read more

We picked up a kids menu chicken platter for our son when we had dinner reservations elsewhere without him. If we had another night in town we'd definitely have come here for the whole family, the kids platter was so good! Honestly blown away by the kids platter: homemade chicken strips, beans (with bacon!), rice, and french fries. The beans were really well seasoned, cooked with bacon, in a tasty, rich broth. The rice was cooked with garlic and perfectly cooked. Even the french fries were top notch. And the chicken strips were perfect golden brown, moist and well seasoned. I'm not sure my two year old really appreciated what he was eating. And at $12 it felt like a really great value, more than enough food for even an adult. I just wish we'd had another night in town to try out the rest of the menu. I'll also add that the staff were extremely friendly and hospitable on the phone and in person even though we were only there for pickup. Thanks for a great meal! read more

I've been to this restaurant a few times before, but not since the pandemic hit. I was leaving the beach with my bf and he mentioned grabbing some pastels. Well if you've never tried one then you haven't lived!! It's a fried, cheese or meat filled pastry. The ones here tasted like they were baked, but I could be wrong. They were more bready than fried flaky which was fine. It was still delicious! My boo had the beef one and I had the cheese one. It was served with house made hot sauce which was very hot lol (for me). I only had a small amount on my pastry and it was good to go. We had some Guarana sodas with those to start. We decided after to get the picanha for one and split it. I'm so glad we did bc it was huge! It served 3 pieces of picanha, rice, beans and farofa. It was SO good! The rice and beans were very flavorful and the meat was super soft! I will be back for that for sure! For dessert, we ordered 2 espressos and an order of brigadero. It was house made and super fresh! I loved it and so will you read more

It was storming really bad when we decided to go out for dinner. We had a hankering for Brazilian steak and this Yelp recommendation was spot on. I think the weather kept most people inside so we were seated right away. We had appetizers (coxinha and pastel) which were good but the pièce de résistance was the picanha steak. I got the 14oz and my fiancé got the 20oz. I wasn't sure either of us would finish our food but everything tasted so good we managed to eat it all!! Dessert was even more delicious, a traditional flan (pudim de leite) and coconut flan. Yum yum. Sooo good. We ordered 2 more coconut flan to go. This had to be one of the best dinners we had on our trip to Miami. read more

We had an absolutely outstanding experience at this Fogo de Chão in Miami Beach--easily one of the…read morebest visits I've ever had at any location. I dine at Fogo de Chão about once a month back home in Georgia, so I already had high expectations, but the level of service here truly exceeded anything I've experienced before. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. Manager Sergio was incredibly attentive and made sure everything ran seamlessly throughout our visit. It's clear he takes great pride in his team and the guest experience. Our server, Manuel, was top-notch--professional, friendly, and always one step ahead of our needs. Brandon also stood out with his attentiveness and positive energy, consistently checking in and ensuring we were well taken care of. And Marisabel at the cashier was the perfect finishing touch--warm, efficient, and genuinely kind. The food was just as impressive as the service. The meats were flavorful, well-seasoned, and perfectly prepared. What really stood out was how accommodating the gaucho chefs were when they learned that I prefer my cuts a bit more well done. Without hesitation, they made sure to bring options cooked exactly to my liking, which made the experience feel personalized and thoughtful. Overall, this location sets a new standard. Between the exceptional service, the high-quality food, and the attention to detail, this Miami Beach Fogo de Chão delivers an experience that goes above and beyond. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town--and honestly, I wish my home location in Georgia could match this level of excellence! Fyi: They will be relocating to Lincoln!

One of the worst dining experiences I've had. From the beginning, the service was extremely…read moredisappointing. The food came out in tiny portions, and instead of bringing everything together, they would bring one small dish and then make us wait another 20 minutes for the next item. The entire meal felt disorganized, and we spent most of the time just waiting. What made it worse was that the quality and experience did not match the price at all. Despite the terrible service, we still decided to leave a $20 tip because we understand servers work hard. However, after leaving, I noticed my card was charged $67, which was shocking and very frustrating. This is not how customers should be treated. Slow service, poor communication, disappointing portions, and unclear charges made the entire experience feel like a waste of money. I hope management looks into this because customers deserve better service and transparency.

We spotted Samba Brazil and saw that there was one available parking spot in front of their restaurant! That is rare in Miami Beach so we knew it was a sign to go in! It was the right thing to do! We got there just as they were opening for dinner so it was empty, which we didn't mind because it was quiet and peaceful after a very stressful day for us both. There was nice Latin music playing and we were greeted quickly by Leticia, who became our server. She was very nice and helpful. Her suggestions were great and we had a delicious dinner! We shared the Picanha steak dinner with rice and beans and sauces. It's $43 for 2 people. We thought that was reasonable. It was cooked to perfection in Medium. Juicy and tender, easy to cut! I also loved the red beans with the rice. Nicely seasoned, not spicy hot, just right. The beans were delicious and the rice was good. We had water for our liquid. For dessert, my daughter had the Churros and I had the Brigadeiros. I had a bite of the churros but it was hard and crunchy so I didnt like it. Maybe it is supposed to be that way but I prefer the soft version. The brigadeiros were out of this world delicious!! Simply perfection! I'm giving 5 stars because of them. We enjoyed our first visit here and will be back soon. It is not too far from our neighborhood. Leticia was wonderful as our server. If you get the chance, you should try this place!

This is a tourist trap for sure…read more First of all, service was mid asf. They had an autogratuity of 18% for a party of 2 people. Let us also note how when we asked for the check, mind you, it was not busy (lol), it took several reminders from us. When we finally got the check, she instantly showed us the additional tip screen. It's insane that this place is rated so high. The food was very much average - not terrible but definitely not amazing. Presentation was okay but very much overrated and overpriced... the picanha and the salmon were ~ 30 each. I'm a small individual and yet the steak was not even enough to fill me up. If you are in a dire need for food and are okay with waiting a decent bit of time with virtually no service, feel free to stop by here. However, if you are truly looking for a nice place to dine and feel like you're getting your money's worth in at the very minimum, taste,... do not stop by here :)

Stop by to try this place today because I walked by all the time and the menu is very attractive…read more Location is OK in typical vibe for the outdoor eating on the street. The overlap at 2 PM between two drinks for the price of one and the brunch menu was very attractive. So why not? I'd read the reviews of others before coming here and people seem to love it or hate it. Unfortunately, I'm on Team Meh. Quick summary would be below average food cooked poorly at extremely high prices. Two light meals, and one round of two for one drinks for $80 come with high expectations. If I had come with low expectations, they would not even have achieved that. To put it into context, I asked the waiter what he would recommend from the brunch menu and he said the burgers were excellent. I looked at the menu and it said 8 ounce burgers with a variety of different toppings. I ordered the Gorgonzola burger. I expected a big juicy burger, considering this is a steakhouse, with nice fresh toppings. The toppings I got were good but not exciting and the blue cheese they used did not have the familiar taste of Gorgonzola. The burger was a flat patty, which clearly didn't even weigh a quarter of a pound, which was overcooked like a hockey puck and had the flavor of a fast food burger. Not even a good fast food burger. toppings were pretty good ut lacked balance and unfortunately did nothing to mask the awful taste of the meat. And even with the bacon (did not see or taste any), onions (overcooked), blue cheese and barbecue sauce, there was not enough food to satisfy my appetite and I am leaving hungry. We ordered two drinks and the drinks weren't bad. They were generous pours and were tasty and well worth the two for one price and actually a bargain for Miami Beach. So if I can leave with one good recommendation for those who want to, stop by for drinks when it's two for one. I'm sure you would be satisfied. My wife had the chicken and waffles. I didn't taste them, but the waffles look like eggos but smaller. She said they tasted good and then said.middling. At over $20 she should be saying they were great. All in all if they can't get a small meal like this right, I'm not coming here for $150 steak. There are a lot of restaurants on the Lincoln Road mall, including another churrascaria. I personally would not waste my time or money on this one. Sidenote: the waiter Camilo was excellent. He took great care of us and even brought water for our dog.

I went with a dear friend for his birthday at Nossa on Thursday and had an amazing time. The entire…read moreexperience was definitely one to remember. The environment of the restaurant is dark and mysterious, edgy and luxurious, which elevated my anticipation of the meal to come. The complimentary glass of champagne was a nice welcome. When it was time to dine, all the guests for the evening were led down a low lit hallway to the dining room. When the frosted glass doors slid open, they revealed a beautiful chef's table situated in the center of the room. All the lighting, colors, and decoration point your eyes toward the chef as if he was on a stage. The restaurant is small, only a few seats around the table. This was nice because you get to know about your fellow guests. Everyone in attendance was so fun and personable. Now for the food. I will confess, I do not normally even like sushi or crave Asian food of this style. However, I loved every dish that was served to me. They hit all the senses - sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste. Other reviews have gone into detail about the various dishes and how good they are so I don't need to. I just want to echo those points and simply express gratitude to the chef for opening my horizons to enjoy these dishes I would not normally have. The showmanship is just right. The chef jokes with the guests and shows off his techniques but there is nothing kitschy or cliché about it. If anyone is concerned about that, let me allay your fears. There were three birthdays being celebrated that night, one of which was my friend's. The restaurant treated us all with a delicious coconut ice cream topped with caviar and finished with a cloud of gold dust. Seeing my friend light up from the gold dust finish made me so happy. Everyone who had a birthday walked away feeling extra special. Finally, a word about cocktails. The Japanese whiskey old fashioned was stunningly good. I had two of them. They source some very old and rare Japanese whiskeys to make their cocktails so they were certainly special. Would I recommend Nossa to others? Absolutely! They limit reservations to a max of two people so go with a close friend or loved one on a special occasion. It was be an experience you both remember and cherish.

Highlights: * Ultra luxury Omakase…read more* Starting at $295+++ per person * An exciting and exclusive experience dinner and a culinary "Show" Omakases in the Miami area have become almost as common to find as Lamborghinis and Ferraris on South Beach lately and high end venues where you can easily beg for the right to pay in advance and spend over $1,000 ++ per couple for dinner with wine or sake, tax, tip and extras, are becoming quite common. If you're going to drop a grand or two for dinner you are 1. Looking for something really special, 2. Want great food, great service and a special experience, 3. Can afford it or at least for a special occasion. I can't speak to your budget but Nossa, which means "Wow" in Portuguese will provide you with a very unique experience, a "Wow". You pay for a non refundable meal on Tock, in advance. Tax, tip, beverages and extras will be paid onsite later. There are only 15 or so spots per night, 6-8 per seating. Be sure to pay attention to the email instructions. You must arrive in advance (not Miami time). Part of the fun is finding the place. You are directed to a small poke shop where it looks like you're in the wrong place. You ask the cashier for instructions. He hands you an envelope with your name on it. You open it up and it tells you how to find Nossa. There is a secret hidden entrance close by and they will ask you the password before allowing you in. The secret door opens to a small speakeasy type bar with silent movies playing on the wall and you are offered a complimentary glass of bubbles (Prosecco). You are later escorted into a beautiful room, black with red lights, Japanese lanterns, jellyfish art, a large open kitchen and a custom semi circular marble dining counter with a spot light over each guests service area, where you and a few other guests (8 total maximum) will enjoy watching the night's preparations served directly in front of you. Depending on the theme of the night the focus might be on fish, wagyu, caviar, sake or whiskey matching. Chef Max Kamakura of Brazilian and Japanese background starts the show. Expect a lot of smoke, fire and showmanship as he creates 13 or more courses for you. On our visit in August the focus was Wagyu A5, see photo of menu. We had 7 different Wagyu preparations (oyster, tartare, smoking sando, tataki, Shabu shabu, uni, lemon and chasola), with 4 nigiris and dessert. We also took them up on several additional nigiris which were $20 each ++ per person extra, adds up. There is a small wine and sake list or corkage is available for wine collectors. I found it interesting that Nossa ages their own fish. Yes certain fish can be aged if you know what your doing. And like prime dry aged beef the fish can gain amazing complexity. We tried some aged fish next to fresh and it was quite surprising. Chef Kamakura uses an array of special cooking gadgets, smokers, and at times it looks like the lab of a mad scientist or a magician. When he's done you are served in an array of unique and attractive dishes. Nossa is not for everyone, but if you're an adventurous foodie who can handle Michelin prices and are looking for a unique experience then Nossa is for you.

We were so surprised and impressed by the service, quality, value, and execution of food. Alberto was our main waiter who was supported by additional staff who were friendly and attentive- simply professional and hospitable. We tried the ham croquettes, melted cheese with chorizo, and fried calamari for starters; and the tomahawk, rib eye, and picana steaks as our mains. The croquettes were so delicious with two dipping sauces- the green herbal one was a perfect pairing. The melted cheese was excellent, prepared and presented in a cast iron skillet with crisp edges. The fried calamari was delightful as well with large fresh pieces and accompanied by fried zucchini chips amidst the calamari. The stars of the show were the meats that were prepared just the way we wanted and like. Each person in our group ranked the meats in different order but we loved the taste with the sides- sweet potato fries, regular fries, grilled corn, and the salt and sauces. The meal was better than expected and just what we needed. We left very happy, very satisfied, and very grateful for the experience. Thanks to Alberto and team!

To start, I was trying to eat at Tapelia and when we asked to be seated we were put in Ole Ole…read morerestaurant which was confusing but we went with it as we didn't want to sit outside. A short recap of the restaurant is the food is not worth the wait at all! We placed our order of drinks, appetizers and main dishes at 2:57. The restaurant was at maybe 60-70% capacity. Our drinks came relatively fast. When we noticed our patrons next to us had already almost finished their appetizers despite being seated AFTER we placed our order we started getting annoyed that our guacamole appetizer hadn't even appeared despite it now being 3:20! When Henry, the manager, asked if we were ok, we asked where our appetizers were in a respectful way and our waitress, Adriana, came by immediately saying, "you only ordered 5 min ago" with such atrocious attitude that wouldn't even be suited for an off Highway Diner. Henry did a great job trying to lighten the experience, and our guacamole did arrive shortly after. Then at 3:45 when we hadn't seen our waitress once since the previous encounter, and our main dishes hadn't arrived we went straight for Henry and he said, "oh you're food is done, are you ready for them?" As if we had to ask versus them arriving when done. They came immediately after. Henry offered to remove one of our appetizers for the trouble but did not. Which is fine, we hadn't expected it, though it was more just annoying as he said he would. I love to tip good service, though this is a prime example of why it is not ok for 20% to be automatically included in a check. The patrons next to us had a different server and their food came out with great time and they seemed to have the experience we were hoping for when we arrived. So I would have happily tipped their server 20%, however Adriana did not deserve hers and by automatically getting it there is no way for her to be motivated to improve. Onto food, three of us ordered a salad with steak, I forget the name but the steak was so hard to cut and even harder to chew. The other in our group ordered the Chiro Burger? And there was chorizo in it, and lacked flavor per him. The guacamole was delicious as were the fries but the melted cheese with chorizo was not good. Miami has such amazing food, so I'd skip this place.
