The service at Brasa is always friendly. The restaurant is clean and the huge windows provide a view for good people watching. The food is tasty and delicately seasoned. I have been there several times ...introducing friends and family to this new location. There was only one time when I was there with my sister and the food was less than enjoyable. I ordered the fish bowl and collard greens. The macaroni and cheese was overcooked, tasteless and the yams were cool...not warm enough to enjoy. I hope this was a one-time fluke...and not anything leaning towards a pattern.

This is our spot. My last meal will be the smothered chicken with red beans, yellow rice and cornbread. Yucca fries are great!

The restaurant has potential but it's very confusing. The menu is confusing and the food is confusing. Apparently it's suppose to be Caribbean and soul food but it just felt like glorified cultural food. It's overpriced and probably over hyped. The food was not filling at all. Our waiter was nice but he talked like a mouse. It was so loud in there that I couldn't hear him. He was polite but he was not loud enough for my party of 4 to hear. Eat here or not you probably could find a more cultural restaurant to eat at for cheaper and you won't leave hungry.

I come to and enjoy Brasa consistently enough that I should finally write a review. The short: service is consistently friendly and helpful, food is consistently good, great gluten-free option with (thus far) no cross-contamination incidents, and a very casual atmosphere. All of my friend group have different favorites: the egg sandwich, the pork bowl, the chilaquiles (my personal favorite.) Every protein comes in different forms: a plate, a sandwich, or a bowl. Most options (except the sandwiches and a couple of sides) are gluten-free. Quick run down of what I've tried: * Chilaquiles with red sauce (the GOAT): the red sauce is such a great flavor and pairs well with the smothered chicken. Their pickled jalapenos and an egg on top makes it a perfect weekend lunch dish. * Egg sandwich: the red sauce reappears on this, to great effect once more. Otherwise it's a simple-but-great egg sandwich served with their tortilla chips. * Fish sandwich: not bad, not my favorite. Flavors are not as punchy as the other options I've had. * Mac and cheese: delightful and simple, thick cheese sauce, no complaints. Crispy yuca, fried plantains, sweet cornbread, also all good. Really, the menu is full of great options. Their beverages don't disappoint either, the coffee and tea are very nice quality -- tea always comes out with a great color and flavor (not bitter at all), coffee pleases even the pickiest coffee nerds in my friend group. Also: no tipping, service fees are built into the menu prices.

It's probably my favorite restaurant! My other favorite restaurant is Alma, owned by the same people!
Awesome experience, fantastic food. A+ I have to type at least 85 characters for this to be a legit review so here you are.

The service was warm and great! The food was bad. I had the best meal (2 piece chicken) according to my server, and it was dry and unseasoned.
