Was there for brunch. It was ok, had the pancake which was quite soggy, and empanadas which was crispy by very airy inside, could have done with double the filling.

Given the price, not sure I'd try their brunch again, but would probably give dinner a shot perhaps.

We went there for brunch after the Jersey City 5k and had the best experience. The food was amazing, highly recommend the cheese bread waffles (savory) and their brigadeiro coffee. The staff are extremely friendly and we had the best time! HIGHLY RECCOMEND

One of the best places in this area. The vibe here is very bohemian and Brazil/Portuguese. Food always tastes fresh and the people who work here are laid back and attentive. Different tables are very close to one another (good for 1 person or a group of 8)
