This was our favourite meal of the trip and we had some amazing ones. We were famished and so…read moreordered a lot of food, which was much more than we could handle. We ordered: -Guacamole with banana chips: this was a nice appy to start the meal, coming with very nicely seasoned guac and dehydrated banana chips. Great way to start the meal. Large portion. -Two different types of vegan quiche that were both decadent, rich and well-spiced. Great creamy texture and quite filling -Black risotto - one of the best risottos I've ever had. Very creamy, with lots of vegan mozzarella, mushrooms, pumpkin seeds, and plenty of microgreens on top. Absolutely divine. -Baião de dois (vegan). I hadn't tried one of these before, and man was it incredible. The main dish was a rice-based dish with vegan sausage, firm tofu, and veggies with a very complex flavour and wonderful textures. On the side was an incredible garlic-sauteed kale, fried banana, and a sort of polenta-like mash with hearts of palm/jackfruit(? - look up) that was sensational. Our server spoke no English, so we communicated via Google Translate. He was so kind, hospitable and friendly--told us he loved serving us at the end. Can't say enough good things about this place. You must try out Banana Verde.

Honestly, this place would be 5 stars if it wasn't for the SERVICE. I absolutely hate to identify…read morepeople but the older bald man who was our server was so nonchalant and absolutely rude. Not like outwardly aggressive type of rude but the kind of rude where he interacts like he couldn't give a damn about the table, the order, or his guests. I do not speak Portuguese but I try. I try so hard to speak Portuguese to a basic level, enough to order. He wouldn't even try to help me out. I know he didn't speak English (not his problem at all) but usually, I even asked for "agua" and he acted as if he couldn't understand me. I resorted to just pointing to items on the menu (which is fine as well) but then he acted like he could barely lean over to see/read which item I was pointing to or like having to come closer to read what I was pointing at was annoying for him. Honestly, we were so excited to come there and he just lets the air out of the room with his demeanor. One thing that wasn't his fault, the restaurant did not have NUMEROUS items that was on the menu. We ordered various items and multiple people had to select their second and third choices. Sounds small but again, when you don't speak the language (but trying your best), having to pick two and three times on the fly is not a nice experience. Food and drink - 5 Stars Ambiance- 5 Stars Service- 1

There is a reason I've eaten here 3 of the past 4 days. One is it makes me feel healthy. While I'm…read morenot exactly able to tell you the names of the assortment of dishes, everything seems fresh and plentiful in essential nutrients that can be lacking when one travels abroad. Try the pizza which always seems to be delicious. They also got veggie feijoda on certain days. The fresh mango is insanely good and I eat that until I fall over. They also provide delicious fresh drinks that are noticeably less sweet, a nice change of pace from the norm. They also provide ice cream and other goodies I have yet to try. The restaurant is also a health food store so you can buy all kinds of crazy hippie goodness that can be hard to find. The buffet line is kept clean and service/wifi is pretty good. So here is 5 stars for you, peace on earth.

Amazing guy, super friendly and such warm personality. 10/10 I order the following dishes 1. Biryani It was amazing. I was expecting a fusion of some sort which is what you get at most Indian places abroad(except Bay Area). But boy did they amaze me with a super authentic chicken biryani. The reason behind the authenticity was that they source the masalas from back home. I could taste the garam masala and fried jeera masala. Portion was good enough for two people(I had to box half). 10/10 2. Rayta: I normally don't like Rayta but this was from the good lot. Hope to come back here again!!
