"Not only does Farofa make great Brazilian food, but it also provides incredible value. The narrow, casual spot has a short menu that revolves around meat: picanha, chicken, linguiça, and more cuts of beef cooked on slow-turning skewers. You can order all of the above as a platter with sides like outstanding yuca fries, fried bananas, rice, potato salad, and more. Or, you can elect to get your meat in sandwich form. It’s all delicious, served in generous portions, and just about the entire menu is under $15." - mariana trabanino, virginia otazo, ryan pfeffer
