Nossa Caipirinha Bar

"Nossa Caipirinha Bar, operated by Last Word Hospitality, closed in Los Feliz at the end of 2024. The group is known for other restaurants like Found Oyster and Barra Santos." - Rebecca Roland

"This very good Brazilian steakhouse in Loz Feliz also works as a day-drinking spot or a late-night dive. Sure, you'll be doing a disservice to your stomach if you leave without eating pão de queijo or chicken heart skewers, but you can certainly come here just for a fun, caipirinha-sponsored night out. Hang at the bar by yourself and drink an excellent cachaça espresso martini or dance to a bossanova DJ set on a Wednesday. Either way, you'll be in an open-air room full of people ready to pretend they care about your photography project. " - brant cox, nikko duren

"You just got out of a movie at the Los Feliz 6 with your date and neither of you is ready to call it just yet. Go grab some snacks and a nightcap or two at Nossa Caipirinha Bar. The tiny Brazilian spot on Hillhurst opened in 2021 as a more formal restaurant, but has now evolved into the kind of casual hangout spot perfect for a last-minute add-on to date night. There’s an open-air dining room and a sidewalk patio—both offering excellent Los Feliz people-watching—plus hearty bar food like chicken heart skewers and mortadella sandwiches, and of course refreshing caipirinhas, the daiquiri-like national cocktail of Brazil." - Brant Cox, Sylvio Martins

"Some nights, you dream about a neighborhood bar with sidewalk seating where you can snack on meat skewers and order a hibiscus-flavored cocktail at 5pm. Well, we've got good news: that bar exists, and it’s called Nossa Caipirinha Bar. This casual little place in Los Feliz is a cross between a Brazilian restaurant and a great neighborhood drinking den where you can make new friends. If you’ve never had a caipirinha before, order one here. It's the national cocktail of Brazil, and they have five different varieties of this decidedly tropical drink on their menu. Sip one for a refreshing cool-down on a warm night." - Sylvio Martins, Brant Cox, Nikko Duren, Garrett Snyder

"If you agree that bossa nova and crisp caipirinhas sound like the making of a sexy little night out, head to Nossa Caipirinha Bar. This dimly lit restaurant in Los Feliz has a spacious sidewalk patio where you can lounge outside with cocktails, and they host a weekly vinyl night featuring DJs spinning Brazilian funk and tropicalia tracks. Nossa has also mastered the "drink and a light bite" formula, so you can spend the night snacking on pillowy pão de queijo and creamy coxinhas with a side of spicy biquinho pepper mayo for dipping. These plates are hearty but definitely on the small side, so split the moqueca on sweet coconut rice with the table if you need something a bit more substantial." - sylvio martins
