lRestaurant Review
Even if you don't ordinarily have drinks before dinner, it's hard to resist beginning a meal here with a caipirinha, a mixture of lime, sugar, and cachaca, a spirit distilled from sugarcane. Caipirinhas are a good foil to some of the spicy appetizers--codfish croquettes (bolhino de bacalhau) or chicken-and-cheese croquettes, both served with a spicy sauce.

The menu offers plenty to choose from among the seafood stews with palm oil and coconut milk, the marinated grilled fish, the steaks well seasoned and seared, and chicken imbued with garlic and pepper.

Restaurant Review
Sassy and full of energy, this Brazilian restaurant in hip Adams-Morgan serves authentic dishes with flair in a funky environment complete with plastic palm trees.
 

Restaurant Review
The decor here is funky, fresh, colorful and invigorating. There are palm trees and blue string lights all around. It’s a small place, though, so reservations are recommended, especially since it is very popular and fills up around 7:30 p.m.
