You can take a table and sit or you can be standing as well, enjoying the music, which sometimes it's 'danceable' :) It usually gets crowded so it's better if you can arrive not too late!

Great variety of menu choices. Good priced wine by the glass…read moreor bottle Bruschetta with two varieties on the same order gives you a nice combo of flavors. Mushroom & cheese combo was too thick and clumpy. The tomato & mozzarella was lighter. (Bruscare means toasted bread) This bread was fluffy room temp.Fettuccini Limone was delicious (the cream sauce could be a lot less thick so the lemon can be balanced with the cream. (Could not separate the strands of pasta for the heavy cream/cheese.) Shrimp were sautéed perfect. Service: Vinicius provided great table service and was very knowledgeable on menu and wine choices. In fact all the staff I observed took special care to provide a great personal touch. Ambiance: This landmark spot could use a little touch up to the mosaic banquets (more pillows to sit on & for back support.) Chipped and gouged edges and missing tiles need attention. Dark green walls need refurbishing. (The Devil is always in the details.) When we visit this landmark spot we enjoy all it has to offer.

We visited on a Monday evening when it was nice and quiet; may be different on other days/times. Service was ok. The feijão tropeiro was really delicious, with excellent pork and quality ingredients (and cheap too). We'd return just for this! Yum!!
