“"Authentic Brazilian Flavors and Excellent Service!"

I recently dined at this restaurant and was blown away by the experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the menu offers a fantastic variety of authentic Brazilian dishes. The meats were perfectly grilled, tender, and flavorful, and the sides paired beautifully.

The service was top-notch, with attentive staff ensuring we always had fresh servings and great recommendations. The cocktails were also spot on, refreshing and well-balanced.

If you're looking for delicious Brazilian cuisine and a memorable dining experience, this place is a must-visit!“

“Always good food and service! We were surprised to learn that the Moroccan Chicken is no longer on the menu and we wish you would bring it back! That was our favorite, although your pork ribs and other items are also delicious. Our dog LOVES your chicken and rice from the pet menu! Thank you for maintaining a delicious and clean, dog friendly establishment to take our pet out to dinner with us!“

“I like the big portion of this restaurant. I went 2 people so we ordered 2 dishes. We tried: 1. Pork Back Bone Stew: very huge portion. The meat is soft and you can feel the broth has been well cooked that gives you the sweet and rich taste. 2. Stir Fried Squid (because I love squid!): very good. This dish can be eaten with rice (if you want to be full) or will paired good with a taste of Soju. The portions are big so don't over ordering or you will have some food to go. The food is a little plaint and there's salt to add (if you are a salty food fan) to assure you don't leave the broth behind. You will feel healthy as you leave the place. Will be great to have for hangover or when you are sick. I went on a weekend night for dinner and the restaurant was a little quiet. I think this place is most suitable for lunch. I would definitely come back to try their other stews and pork belly!“

Come on stop charging for it, no one would ever pay for a ketchup packet, why charge people eating wings for ranch or blue cheese!?“

“It's delicious little planets like this that keep me 2 sizes over my ideal waistline. The food is fresh, prepared in an open kitchen, and is really, really fricken good. When I say it's good I mean that the food is a master class in the foundational flavor profiles of Mexican-American cooking. It's like watching Tiger Woods' flawless swing at the Master's, Kobe Bryant under pressure, gracefully sinking a three from way outside, or watching Kelly Slater threading a big, dark, and scary Teahupo'o cavern - It's beautiful.
Ordering in English is an option which is nice because my Spanish es "muy informal" (putting it politely). The staff is courteous and friendly. Do yourself a favor and eat her next time your hungry. Chances are, you'll see me :)!“

“You know that one restaurant you were eating at since you were little and still go to to this day? For me, it's Boiling Point and they've been around for 20 YEARS! (Wow, I've just aged myself, haven't I?)

I remember having to grab the sauces yourself at a little sauce cart at their OG Hacienda Heights location.

I have SO many memories here and so many favorites, but the 臭臭鍋 (Taiwanese stinky hot pot) will always have my heart.

Some things have changed, like their BRAND NEW drinks menu, but the taste is always just like how I remember it to be~

Thanks for reading! ^-^“
