    Fried Yuca
    Diogo R.

    I've been dying to try this place since I started hearing about a new fast-casual dining Brazilian restaurant was opening in Orem. The restaurant is easy to find and really cute inside with colors that reminded me of my home country, Brasil. It's smaller than o expected and almost all tables were full, which is always a good indicator. I ordered a classic feijoada and my wife the grilled chicken plate. We also added a side of Fries Yuca--a classic and a favorite of mine growing up in Recife--and I also ordered suco de Maracujá(passion fruit juice). The feijoada was delicious. The fact that it came with a piece of ribs was delicious. That reminded me a lot of eating feijoada in Brazil back in the day. The rice, farofa, vinagrete and collard greens were also delicious. When mixed together, it was the perfect bite. One of the best feijoadas in the area, compared to other Brazilian places in the state. The passion fruit juice was delicious, it tasted authentic--better than some places where it tastes fake. The yuca was spot on. Not oily, but juicy and not dry at all. My wife said it was too salty, but It was just perfect for me. Also, my wife wasn't crazy about the grilled chicken. It tasted like something you get at Cafe Rio or Chipotle. Nothing special--or Brazilian--to it, to be 100% honest. It wasn't bad, but it want special either. We were treated well by the friendly staff and will definitely come back to try the rest of the menu.

    Authentic Brazilian experience! This is quite the find. If you're looking for the real deal Brazilian experience, you'll find it here. Owners are from southern Brazil and take pride in their dishes. How you know it's authentic: The Feijoada comes with farofa. The Stroganoffs come with potato sticks. The passion fruit comes with the seeds. They have Yuka Fries, brigadeiro, and green olives available. Great people, great food! Please support!

    So fun trying Pitada Brazil this week! Pitada means "pinch" in Portuguese and I would say that it's an accurate name for this place. So fun to have a little "pinch of Brazil" right here in Utah county! I haven't had much Brazilian food before, so it was really fun to try something different than all the other restaurants around here. I loved the Chicken Stroganoff and would definitely recommend that if you plan on stopping by. The sauce was creamy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. The service was also great! With it being my first time here, our server helped to answer all our questions and gave great recommendations. You should come here next time you are in the mood for Brazilian.

    It is hard in this economy to find food that is delicious, inexpensive and fast. But Pitadas has all three. The food is amazing. I wish I was eating it right now. Everything was seasoned perfectly and fresh as a summers morn. We got two meals for under $20. Try to do that somewhere that has fresh ingredients I dare you. Service was also great. The people at the counter were very helpful and answered all my questions. The only negative thing I could say is the chairs aren't that comfortable but you will probably eat your food so fast you won't notice until you are full.

    I came in right before closing on a Wednesday night. I know nothing about Brazilian food, but the owner was very kind and understanding while taking my order. I ordered the feijoada, which comes with a couple of sides and a drink. Something I thought was cool is that this place lets you build your own side salad. The feijoada was flavorful and delicious. The rice and salad both tasted very fresh. The juices are freshly made as well. They have mango, passion fruit, and mint pineapple. I tried them all and they were all great. As I finished checking out, I was informed that there was a special promotion that day and I could get a free dessert. The chocolate mousse was my desert of choice and it was definitely rich and smooth. I look forward to returning soon and introducing this place to more people.

    So, I wasn't sure what to expect coming to this place. I've had Brazilian food from a few different places. And it was good. Nothing amazing. Well Pitada showed them all up. All the food here is made fresh daily. They even make their juices and chocolate mousse. (The passion fruit juice is delightful by the way. Limonade was very good too.) I was not prepared for a dish of cozy, comforting, warm you up food. Every element throughout the food was seasoned properly. Even the rice! And they have batata palha and farofa that add texture. (Team texture right here!) I really couldn't decide if I liked the beef or chicken stroganoff better. The fried yuca and fried polenta were also so yummy. The fried polenta reminded me of a hush puppy. Add to all that, the whole plate (rice, entree, and a salad) all come at a very reasonable price. Now I can say we didn't try the grilled chicken or steak. We went with the "right side" of the menu ;). Wanted to try the authentic things. The environment is bright and clean. Carries a great vibe. The staff is friendly and helpful and eager to serve you up good food. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

    Pitada Brazil is the perfect pinch of Brazil. No really. Apparently that's what it means. Pitada=pinch. But it's not your big bbq-style place you normally think of when you think Brazilian. This is the type of food your mom would make for the family on any given day. It's comfort food. It's stroganoff. It's beans and rice. It's food that's been cooking on the stove since this morning. It's food that's been cooked with love.

    The food here was amazing. Like so so good. We usually always go to Tucanos when we come to Utah to visit and this year, we cancelled our reservation just so we could eat here a second time before we left. The stroganoff was so delicious and the portion sizes are perfect. Best part: guaraná on tap!!!! Will definitely return next time we're in town.

    A dear friend treated me to a quick surprise lunch at Pitada Brazil, and it was well worth our visit. We ordered both their feijoada and their stroganoff, each of which we split between us. Each meal included a salad (which I brought home for my wife) and a tiny roll, and the feijoada included a fried banana. I also tried their all-you-can-drink Brazilian juices with my food. Our food was all priced decently, it was all ready very quickly, and it was all wonderfully delicious---and authentic, I suppose, as my friend who served as a missionary in Brazil can testify. Their service was both friendly and helpful. And their atmosphere was pleasant and good for our mealtime conversation. Considering my experience here, I felt surprised that they weren't busier, but perhaps people are still discovering this Brazilian gem.

We loved the sausage soup and beet salad! So unique and flavorful. For the main entree, the gnocchi and winter pasta were also a hit. Hard to top the soup and salad though!

However, we did have one drink server where we had some issues with, but our main waitress was lovely. For starters, our table shared the baked ricotta, balsamic glazed brussel sprouts, and bread rolls with honey and butter. The brussel sprouts were good, but the bread rolls were my favorite! They were so incredibly soft and pillowy. They honestly didn't even need the bread and butter! I was most excited for the baked ricotta, but unfortunately it was a disappointment for me. Ricotta is a very mild cheese to begin with, but I tasted absolutely zero flavor from it and it was mostly just adding a textural element to the bread. The fig walnut guanciale jam was overpoweringly sweet and the guanciale was also nonexistent. Overall, what I expected to be a flavorful combination, fell pretty flat and bland for me. Onto the main, I got to try the Block burger and the house made gnocchi. The burger was a standard burger, nothing too crazy. I was surprised the patty was actually moist because it was cooked well done. The same jam from the baked ricotta was used, so wasn't a big fan of it because again the overwhelmingly sweet didn't do much to elevate the burger. I also missed any flavor from the truffle cheese sauce. So it was a pretty average burger. My gnocchi definitely tasted better than it looked. Another friend also got the same dish and it looked like they just split our portions in half and served it on two separate plates. In general, I wasn't a big fan of this dish. The braised short rib was very tender, but the whole plate sat in a pool of salty sauce. I couldn't really make out any other flavors. The scoop of crème fraiche tasted exactly like sour cream and was not the consistency that I expected. The gnocchi's were made well, but I prefer mine a little firmer. However, this is complete personal preference. Overall, service was good, but food fell severely short of what I expected. I was so excited for all of these elevated flavors and ingredients, but, sadly, none of them came through.

I'm pleased to report that my experience could not have been further from that narrative. I ordered the blackened salmon salad and it was exceptional. Perfectly executed, deeply flavorful, and balanced in a way that makes you pause between bites just to appreciate it. At one point I genuinely had to check myself because the sensory enjoyment was so elevated I could have sworn I was on MDMA. I was not. The dish was simply that transporting. The crème brûlée was of Michelin caliber. Silky custard, flawlessly torched sugar crust, ideal sweetness. It stands just behind my own homemade version, which is the highest compliment I can give. The bruschetta was equally refined, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared. Service was polished and attentive throughout. Our waitress, short dark hair, excellent presence, anticipated needs without hovering. The only mystery was her missing name tag. Ambience deserves its own praise. The acoustics were perfect, allowing conversation without strain, while a Frank Sinatra style playlist set an elegant, nostalgic tone. For a moment I thought I was listening to one of my own Spotify playlists. Impeccable curation. At one point I noticed lemon trees growing inside the building and briefly questioned whether they were real. They were decorative, but that moment captures how immersive the dining experience felt.

While my wife likes to stick with her usual sure fire selection, she's determined next time to be more adventurous. We also like the drink choices including mocktails. Desserts are a problem, since every item is wonderful, although they are probably not made in house. [I've always wondered whose home a homemade was the locus of preparation.] La Jolla will continue to be our star restaurant selection for entertaining special guests from out of town and special occasions in town.
