Menu 4/24
Deniece W.

This place was just ok for me. The food was good. The steak in the bife grelhado lunch special needed a sauce of some kind, a chimichurri maybe? It was also overcooked for my tastes. In previous photos of their menu on Yelp, that lunch special I got was $15. It's been marked up to $18. There's another Brazilian restaurant down the street that does a similar lunch special with a better cut of steak (picanha) for $15. Service could have been much better. There was only one other table when we were there, so they weren't busy. Our server didn't really check on us. I had to get up to get condiments for us.

I stopped by on a Friday evening and tried the Picanha for two, served with rice and beans. The steak was cooked very well, and the rice and beans complemented the meal nicely. Overall, I'd rate the food an honest four--it was definitely above average, though not quite the best I've had. The service was also really nice. Definitely a nice place to have a lowkey dinner.

Torresmo de rolo

While I ordered take out for the first time OMG I know MUST go eat at the restaurant. Had the Picanha and Torresmo de Rolo both were great!!

We walked by recently and realized this restaurant changed ownership and decided to check it out! We love Feijoada so we came for dinner to try some. It's a black beans stew that's cooked for hours with dried beef pork loin smoked pork bacon sausage and ribs, served with stir fry collard greens sliced orange, rice, and toasted yuca flour. We ordered that for 2 people and then got a chicken catupiry pastel to start. The pastel was super crunchy and delicious! I'm glad we split it because it was hugggeee! Then when our main came out it was played in a cast iron skillet along with a large pot with the stew. The Feijoada was super flavorful with large pieces of ribs. We devoured most of it but still had some left to take home. We skipped dessert this time but can't wait to go back for more! Check it out if you're in North Beach.

Excellent food. We got fejiouda (hopefully didn't butcher the name too much) and shrimp with the creamy sauce, and cheese bread. Everything was excellent. Initially we saw it was totally empty but decided to try it out, this place is awesome.

The food was excellent. The portions are really large, too. I had feijoada and it was really good here. It took a bit longer than my dining companions, but worth the wait. The cheesy bread is good, although too much food for me. This spot seem more like a less touristy area, but it's definitely a neighborhood gem.

Service was fantastic; even kind! And the Picanha was to die for would definitely recommend for Brazilian cuisine lovers!!

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!

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!

They have a large outdoor patio area and a small indoor dining area. Food we had: mussels, cheese dip, classic mix plate, surf and turf, chocolate cake, cheesecake. Absolutely everything we had was amazing. The steaks and seafood were both cooked perfectly. They have a ton of gluten free options. The cheesecake doesn't have a crust on it. The only option to replace bread though is corn tortilla chips but they were still really good with the cheese dip.
