I was in the mood for Brazilian. I was in the process of having new hurricane doors and windows installed at my house (that's a separate review) and the men who fid the installation all happened to be Brazilian. And I was hungry, so I looked for Brazilian food and found Casa do Pastel. A pastel is essentially an empanada, but deep fried. I didn't know what to get, so I asked the young lady with the pretty smile what was good. She suggested the beef, egg and cheese (that's one) and the chicken, cheese and bacon. When she brought the food she asked if I wanted ketchup, because I am that white. I asked for hot sauce. Both were delicious. I prefer beef over chicken (my doctor hates that), so next time I'll have two beef. Or maybe a shrimp. I also had a glass of sugar cane juice. I've had that before and it was just like I remembered it. The place is clean. The service is excellent. The food is good. A very winning combination and I will be back. read more

Any place that serves Brazilian food is always a great option in my book! I hadn't been here since the renovation, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much better the pastel was compared to before. The service was excellent, and the prices were even better! Overall, a great spot for authentic Brazilian food at a good price. I'll definitely be back! read more

decent.. prob more like a 3.5. got the cheese bread and 2 chicken pastel. Cheese bread was decent but not light as typically expected... it was super dense and while not bad wished for a little more flavor. Chicken pastel was good though. read more

English I drove 20 minutes during my one-hour lunch break expecting a good Brazilian meal. I ordered a chicken pastel and sugarcane juice. The juice was okay, but the chicken pastel was inedible -- it tasted like raw dough filled with a gray, flavorless paste that seemed microwaved. I left without eating, wasting my entire lunch break and working the rest of the day without food. The person in the kitchen even peeked out to see if I would eat it. I left the food untouched on the table. No refund, no replacement, not even an apology was offered. I'm Brazilian and know what a good chicken pastel should be. I will not return and do not recommend this place due to serious food quality and service concerns. Português Dirigi 20 minutos no meu horário de almoço esperando uma boa refeição brasileira. Pedi um pastel de frango e um caldo de cana. O caldo estava ok, mas o pastel era intragável -- parecia massa crua com um recheio cinza e sem sabor, aparentemente aquecido no micro-ondas. Saí sem comer, perdi todo o meu horário de almoço e trabalhei o resto do dia sem comida. A pessoa da cozinha ainda espiou para ver se eu iria comer. Deixei o prato intacto na mesa. Não ofereceram reembolso, substituição ou sequer um pedido de desculpas. Sou brasileira e sei como um bom pastel de frango deve ser. Não volto mais e não recomendo devido à péssima qualidade da comida e do atendimento. read more

I wouldn't come back. The food just didn't hit the mark. We ordered the cheese and beef pastel -- the cheese one seemed premade and barely warmed, with unmelted cheese. The beef pastel had a good amount of filling, but it wasn't hot, which made it underwhelming. The coffee was watered down and had an odd taste -- definitely not enjoyable. The cheese pressed sandwich was below average, and the coxinha was just okay. The one highlight was the fresh orange juice, which was actually really good. Pricing is reasonable, but unfortunately, the quality doesn't match. Won't be returning. read more

I ordered online and paid 20.04$ for a chicken sandwich, a natural juice and what they are known for a Pastel. The service was good and I got my food quickly since I was the only one there. I would expect for a facility who names themselves house of pastels that the Pastels would be the best thing on the menu. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in finding my pastel had NO filling when i took my first bite. it all sat at the bottom and my pastel was 90% air and dough and 10% chicken corn and cheese. Essentially I paid 4.05$ for fried empanada dough. NOT PICTURED is my Pao de Queso (cheese bread) that had a piece of paper towel fried to the bottom of it which the front cashier replaced for me.. I will say the chicken sandwich was yummy and flavorful - the patty was 2x as big as the ciabatta it was served in but it was worth every bite. I would not have expected that to be tastier than what they are known for. I wouldn't recommend their sugar cane juice either - had an off after taste. read more

I was in the area and I got the munchies, I've seen this place several times so I decided to try it. I always assumed it is a Colombian bakery but I was so very wrong it is actually Brazilian. The place inside is very airy and the colors are very appealing to the eye. I got a café con leche and a chichen empanada. The empanada was very dense and different than your typical latin ones. Chicken filling felt almost like a paste, very different.the dough is the same as Colombian empanadas though. Service was good this is a order at the counter and bring to your table type place. No frills. I wasn't a fan of the empanada and based on that I would not come back, or rather, come back for that particular item. but the place is great and they also have cakes and desserts, which I didn't try. I would however try something else next time. read more

It's hard to find this place because it's on the far corner of the shopping center and the signage is not easily viewable from Sample. But the Brazilian salgados here are legit, they got all the savory pastries you want, the pastels, pies, empanadas, the coxinhas, the sfihas, the kibbe, the pao de queijo, all that stuff. Pastels are fresh fried to order. read more

Tasty victuals here. And, if you were afraid to ask, the Kibe appetizer is just like Middle Eastern Kibbe! I don't want to disclose all my food favorites here because when I want them I don't want to hear Casa do Pastel has sold out of my items. I love that Casa do Pastel has delivery partners. read more

Casa do Pastel - Margate - Two tickets to order my order because Cashier forgot 1 ingredient during ringup. Cashier confused things by saying way I ordered expensive. - Brazilian Near Me - Margate, Florida

Service was fast, they have a pretty large variety of menu items, and the inside is nicer than expected. I highly recommend the chicken cheese balls. The chicken salad sandwich looks very basic as it was just on sliced bread, but it was made very well. It tasted like they added a secret ingredient. My boyfriend liked the flan. Our empanadas were freshly fried. The dulce de leche empanada was yummy. The chicken in the chicken and cream cheese empanada was very dry... I did not enjoy it. Maybe it was a fluke; either way I will still be going back to try the other menu items. read more

Unfortunately wasn't a pleasant experience. Since one of the clerks, was keeping the mask under her nose and when I politely told her that her mask was dropping from her face, she ignored me and turned around. The other 2 girls were very polite. read more

This is a newly opened restaurant I have been waiting to try. They provided me with friendly service serving Brazilian baked or fried appetizers, desserts and natural juices. They serve food similar to what you would find in pastel stores and markets in Brazil. I had a chicken and a beef empanada fried which I shared with my son. We also had cheese bread. Queso de pan. The food was great I have already recommended the place to friends and will return. read more

Really good place for snacks and some Brazilian treats. We love the Coxinhas (please do get some chicken ones with cream cheese....amazing!!!) It is a small local and a simple decor but it reminded so much of home and local business with great food to offer from the home countries. They have churros, cheese balls and the most amazing Corn/Cheese and coconut cake.....delicious and out of this world, a true treat. The other deserts are also good, they make great flan and the chocolate cake is ok. We didn't like the passion fruit mousse that we love from another local Brazilian business. Prices are great and totally worth it. read more

Went here at 5:05 pm on Saturday 11/14/20. One girl behind the counter, one sweeping. I said I'd like 6box of pastries. They asked "how many" ? I said "I don't know yet but a small box". The stood there staring at me. What I expected was someone to grab a box and a piece of wax paper. Load the box, add it up at the register. I pay, I tip, I leave. I wasn't in the mood to train employees at a place that I'm not employed at so I put down my menu, said thank you and left. They stood inside laughing, completely oblivious as to what had happened. You lost a sale and you lost a customer. That's what happened. And their hearts of palm pastries are the bomb. Sad. read more

I give them 5 starts for their food alone truly some of my favorite Brazilian goodies and their mint beverage really is so refreshing in the summer please try and be open minded if you don't speak Portuguese, like me, I had to be a little patient with the language barrier but besides that they took care of me pretty well. They made a slight mistake ringing me up but offered me extra pan in exchange and I was cool with it. One of my fave places to go so be nice (: read more

Great food. Everything is very fresh and made to order. The food is delicious, the Empanadas, Quipes and Chicken balls, are very similar to the Dominican ones. Loved it all. Will return again. read more

Ever since we walked in this location, everything felt right, the young woman at the register was just great, explaining every single detail of the food we were ordering, also recommended the flan and the delicious corn pudding, the prices are right on target and the store is clean, the only objection I have is that they don't open early, other than that we are going back there tomorrow, great small place to have a late breakfast and lunch, kudos to the staff. read more

It should be noted that I have virtually zero experience with Brazilian food! I'm specifically referring to the difference between pastels and empanadas. The empanadas, in my opinion, lack filling. The pastels, however, I consider to actually be empanadas! There is a wide variety, including chicken, beef, cheese and if you're in the mood for something sweet, there is something called a nutella pastel, and it is simply deelishous!!! The sandwiches are pretty awesome too. My favorites are the black forest ham, chicken and basically any egg sandwich. The prices are fantastically reasonable and you can place an order for delivery via Uber Eats! read more

Authentic Brazilian food. The acai bowl has the acai pulp blended with bananas, it is not my favorite but you I think I could ask them not to make it like that. The pasteis are ok, I really liked the coxinha and the empadas. read more

I always pass this place on my walks to the beauty supply store near by so finally decided to check them out. Staff is friendly and explained the menu to me.

Food is reasonably priced and tastes good. If you're ever in the area check them out. read more

Very nice heart of palm empada and pastel. The place was very clean and has fast service!

Pretty good Brazilian food. My wife had pork and corn soup with a chicken pastry and some guava pastries. I had a chicken ball, beef and yucca pastry, cod and yucca pastry, and ground beef pastry. Everything was good except for the cod pastry. The cod pastry wasn't cooked completely and also wasn't that tasty. The sugar can juice also tastes really good. Next time I come here I'm trying the chicken pie or maybe several of the desserts. :) read more

We bought an acai bowl and we were VERY disappointed. The amount of "acai" which wasn't even pure because they add strawberries was very little. I could measure the amount of "acai" with two of my fingers. The bowl wasn't even half full. Never buying acai there again or going to that place...it's a rip off. It's also an insult to the Brazilians that are used to having good quality and quantity of acai. read more
