I just had my dinner here tonight and booked a table thru website.I came earlier than my booking time and they still accommodated me. It was around 5:30pm when I came and there were only a few diners.I asked the staff who attended why their wifi connection is slow and he said the router is outside and I asked him if I can sit outside and he transferred me, he even opened the aircon there. What I ordered: Classic feijoada - 3.5/5. It comes with vegetable ang fruit on the side. Pollo Peruano - 3.5/5. It's good but nothing special. Nido frito - 4.5/5. I liked this one, the funnel cake was crispy, it has vanilla ice cream on top with strawberry syrup. Horchata - 3.5/5. This one is like coconut water with milk and spices, I think has cinnamon on it. Ambiance - 3.5/5Cleanliness - 4/5Customer service - 4/5Value - 3.5/5Food - 3.5/5

Met with my best friends, for our monthly bonding. We ordered a dozen of appetizers so we can wait for our other best friend.  We ordered the following appetizers:Päo de Queijo P195 Brazilian Freshly Baked Bread and Cheese Rolls/MozzarellaGuacamole & Chips P395Fresh Avocado Dip/ Sweet Potato Crisps/ Fried Plantain(banana)/TortillasElote P195Chargrilled Sweet Corn/ Chili Butter/ Mayo Lime / Crumbled CheeseThe Guacamole and chips had a pretty hefty serving and we weren't able to finish all of it. But the Guacamole for me lacked avocado, the taste of a true guacamole I know wasn't that evident. We liked the Päo de Queijo and Elote both have unique taste. Like the Päo de Queijo isn't like your ordinary cheese bread. The bread is much softer and the filling of cheese was one with the bread opposed to as it was jammed in, then melted inside. The Elote was a throwback to sweet corn from the streets except this is 10x better te mayo lime and chii butter together with crumbled cheese.was a game changer to the street sweet corn game. We kernelled our sweet corn so that it would be for sharing and didn't have the corn on the cob experience.Then came our mains which was:Picante de Pollo P330Slow Braised Chicken/ Black Beans/ Root Vegetables/ Coconut Creme/ Fried GarbanzosPollo Peruano P385Peruvian Pit chicken with corn rice/ mixed greens/ chimichurriThe Picante de pollo looked like your squid dish except it was chicken. The black color came from the black beans. Although it was slow braised chicken i found the meat to be a little too tender for me. It was good eating it at first but due to the hefty serving and the linear taste, I was kinda sick of it when I was finishing the rice.The Pollo Peruano was more of a delicious meal than the picante, the chicken was good combined with the corn rice and Chimichurri. Shouldve ordered this too instead.Food- 4/5 lots of great appetizersService 5/5 Service was prompt and they were telling us what dishes would take time.Price 3.5/5 Aside from the appetizers I found the mains too expensive. Although it has a hefty serving they couldve opted for a smalelr size as well.Ambiance 4/5 I like the aesthetic of this restaurant. It sticks out from the chain of restaurants its aligned with. it shows the latin/mexican roots of the resto.
