The atmosphere in this restaurant is great. We’ve been here a few times, both before and after the change in ownership. On this visit, the food was just okay. The Boteca VIP burger was supposed to come with Brazilian sausage, but instead it had what looked more like a hotdog. The fries also had an odd aftertaste, almost like the oil they used was old.
For our family of five (two adults, an 11-year-old, and two small children), the bill came to $150. Be aware that an “auto gratuity for large parties” was added to the ticket. It is listed on their menu, but I almost left an extra $30 tip before I noticed it. (The auto gratuity starting at a family of 5 IS stated on their menu)
Service could have been better as well. A few times we needed something and couldn’t get the wait staff’s attention—they were in the back eating ice cream cones.
Overall, not a terrible experience, but not great either. Just keep an eye on the gratuity and know what to expect before going in.

We haven’t even left our meal yet, but I had to give 5 stars before I forget to do so. Truly amazing food and very good cocktails. I got the tropical shrimp, short rib croquettes, and yuca fries. So damn good.

Summary- has potential for 5 star review:
BEST Margarita/Ranch Water along the Grand Strand. So fresh, with lots of chopped fresh lime! Very different, in a good way- very worthwhile!
The menu is quite different, with lots of interesting combinations of fresh food:) We were impressed to see that they have a few vegan and gluten free options, and they are always willing to answer questions about the menu and accommodate whenever they can. The food is fresh and good, and the chef has extensive experience; it's obvious. The pico de gallo is handmade by him, and it is DELICIOUS!!!
Just be patient; there is a bit of a language barrier. I did have to ask multiple times for the same thing, however, I am not angry. I just want to be honest. We mentioned we were on a very tight schedule and they just couldn't understand. Instead of making our meal/drinks, the chef/server/bartender/manager went back to seven or so other tasks:(. We had to cancel our order:( He seems to run the entire show, while other staff don't do much. I just don't understand why. All of them are very pleasant and willing to please. This could be a really great review, the potential is there. Some tweaking is recommended, just so they can soar:)

This Brazilian restaurant exceeded my expectations. The food was amazing with its authentic flavors truly capturing Brazilian cuisine. The atmosphere was welcoming with the beautiful sounds of Jazz, which proved a soothing and relaxing evening out with my spouse. There was an added bonus with the wait staff being helpful and friendly. This is definitely a great restaurant for great food.

This place was so incredible all across the board. Atmosphere was very cute with soothing live jazz from Javier on the trumpet. Bina was so sweet and helpful and took amazing care of us and answered all of our questions. I got the tropical shrimp not mentally prepared for what I had in store for me. Presentation was so good and my husband and friends loved their food as well! Can’t recommend this spot enough.

Fabulous! Great food, great service, and great music! When most other places are “Myrtle Beach” good, this place was simply yummie (from a foodie). I had the feijorad and my wife had tropical shrimp, served in half a pineapple - beautiful!
Great place to be on the off time. Great people, delicious food. The price is very reasonable. I will be back again. I am glad I found this great restaurant to eat and enjoy my time with my wife on my vacation.

Extremely pleasantly surprised. While doing an event in Myrtle Beach SC we took a break and visited for a quick light bite to eat. Very pleasant atmosphere and server. The food was extremely fresh with great flavor. I truly appreciate the fact that the food wasn't salty and still had lots of flavor. The plating was nicely done and the portions are perfect. The restroom was clean . Met the owner whom was extremely nice and very pleasant to speak with. Strongly recommend seeking out this wonderful little Brazilian Restaurant.

It’s all about food - which is amazing! I order chicken stroganoff, favorite for me and kids! They also have adorable play area for children with books and connect games. Service is excellent too! Atmosphere can be cute and romantic! Lots of plants and light!
