I recently had the pleasure of dining at Capoeira Restaurant, and let me tell you, it's a gem that's not to be missed! Nestled in a super adorable spot, this restaurant exudes a casual vibe that's perfect for any occasion, whether you're there for an early dinner or just to enjoy a coffee or snack. The interior is thoughtfully decorated, creating a cozy and intimate atmosphere that makes you feel right at home.
The menu is a treasure trove of flavors, and I was particularly impressed by the fried cheese balls appetizer – a delightful way to start the meal. But the real showstopper was the steak with a unique coffee-flavored sauce, a specialty that's as intriguing as it is delicious. The pumpkin shrimp gratin, however, stole the show and was hands down the best dish of the night. It's a must-try for anyone visiting.
While Portuguese egg tarts are a classic at any Portuguese restaurant, they were a tad too sweet for my taste, but they're perfect for sharing with friends over a good conversation. Speaking of friends, the place is BYOB, which means you can bring your favorite bottle to complement the meal. The service is top-notch, and it's clear that Capoeira Restaurant is a beloved spot not just for me, but for the entire community. It's a place where every dish is crafted with care, and every visit feels like a celebration of good food and great company.
