Great food! Lara always provides outstanding service and goes out of her way to please you. Haven't tried all of their food but it's a matter of time since it's one of my husband's favorite Brazilian places. The carrot cake and the coxinha are our favorites.

This place beats out all the “latin” food in Riverside. After trying out 3 nearby “latin” restaurants. I was seriously impressed, at first you think bakery- which yea they have a good amount of pasteries if you look at their menu they have quite an amount of offerings. Got the Steak w/ rice , eggs, pinto beans - this came with a small garden side salad. Really good portion, steak wasn’t skimpy and was cooked just right! The beans needed a tad more salt. The meal was absolutely delicious! The sweet milk cake was good as well! Would recommend/ return!
