The Best Restaurants in the Berkshires | Eater Boston

"Cristiane Melo entered the food industry by taking orders over WhatsApp from her friends in the local Brazilian community. Her cooking became so popular that she decided to open a restaurant with her family right in the heart of the Berkshires. Have the espetinhos (steak skewer) made from a cut of beef that is between the sirloin and rump. And don’t miss the yuca fries and deep-fried salgadinhos — literally, “salty bites” — filled with cheese, beef, chicken, or sausage. The desserts are also worth exploring, especially the mousses and the churros. Be sure to check their social media feeds for specials like feijoada (Brazilian bean stew) or kibbeh." - Emma Van Slyck

This is the best food I’ve had in a long time. The Brazilian limeade is delicious. The passion fruit mousse is both tart and sweet, amazing. I got the Brazilian platter appetizer. Everything was incredible.

My service was amazing and quick and the waitress was lovely. I had amazing food and for a great price. It was a nice, clean restaurant inside (I forgot to take a pic of inside but it was super cute)! The pastels were incredible and the what I think was an aioli they served it with was sooo good. I will definitely be visiting again to try more of the menu!

Great food! Stopped in while on vacation and it was a great experience even for first-timers not familiar with Brazilian. Wait staff was attentive and friendly and helpful! Will make this a regular stop each year when we come through.

Tried something new and was very pleasantly surprised. The food is excellent and flavorful. The prices are good. For 4 people- 4 entrees, 2 appetizers, 3 Brazilian lime aids, and a dessert, $108 is a great price! Our waitress was very sweet in helping us with the menu and understanding what certain things are. But yeah, I’d recommend the lime aid, it is beyond delicious.

We have ate here twice and I believe we will be regulars! We can’t stop talking about our Valentine’s Day dinner. The portions are perfect, the taste is delicious and we have not had a better Brazilian restaurant experience than here. The service is always good, I love how the server is always engaging and describes each dish. She sells us every time! Lol. We are never disappointed. Beautiful atmosphere, friendly and welcoming.

We visited here on a whim with our kids on a road trip. The server was so attentive and kind, as well as flexible when we had questions. We tried the sampler platter and used that as a jumping off point for ordering more of what we most enjoyed. We all loved the pastels—the pastry crust was amazing. The yucca fries came with cheese to dip in and were nice and crispy, but I do wish they were finished with a salt (maybe they normally are and it was just an oversight?). The whole family fought over the Brazilian limeade. I’m definitely going to try to recreate it at home for the warmer months. They have a buffet you can order by the pound if you already know what you like! All in all a nice place!

They have a very comfortable feel. The service is excellent, open and friendly. Finally the food is superior! We are planning to go back again before we leave the area. (and the passion fruit mousse is delicious!) I don’t post reviews for mediocrity. This is worth the visit.
