    One of the nice bars along Rua Nelsom Mandela where there's plenty of sidewalk to stroll and see…read morethe what bars have to offer. It's a good spot to hang out with friends, have a smoke on the outside patio, watch a soccer match on the tv and try the variety of craft draft beers they have on tap. The service was fine, early on a non-busy weekday night. We tried the cheesy cheddar fries with bacon. Be cautioned that cheddar is used lightly around here, any orange colored cheese. If you're a Wisconsin cheese enthusiast, you will be sorely disappointed that this cheese is distributed among the fries in a paste, shaped like it was squeeze from a tube. Luckily it's easy to pick off since it was a bit dry and tasteless. It came with a much better cheese dipping sauce and BBQ sauce and was sprinkled with bits of bacon. The fries weren't super crispy but what can you expect at a bar. The bruschetta appetizer was a very generous proportion that makes it easy to share with a table. There's six giant toasts with three different toppings. The beers on tap rotate regularly but the delirium averbode was a nice refreshing beer while the Brooklyn sorachi saison was also delicious and spicy. Both were R$30 for a 300 mL cup, a little too pricy to enjoy too much of. To be fair, all craft beer, especially imported beer is quite pricy. They did offer larger amounts for incrementally higher prices and growlers were available. They have the best space on that street since they get to spread out in front of the Caixa bank when it's closed.

    It only had happy hour on the Pilsen beer. The food was…read morehorrible! I asked for a shrimp risotto and got something alike but totally disgusting! Not a risotto! Also I thought it was expensive but the bar looked cheap.
