The name says it all. You're here to order a picanha AKA sirloin cap or rump cap. A thick, juicy muscle topped with a tasty fat cap. The entire chunk of beef is seasoned, and charred over open fire before being sliced up and grilled to a juicy rare.
Tip: Eat the fat! More than ever, this is flavor.
The cut does not possess the flavor of premium steak cuts or butchers cuts but throw in the right sides and sauce it up properly and it's all good.
As a plate, two thick slices along with a very well made, snappy, aggressively seasoned, grilled sausage. Two sides of your choice, don't pass on the yucca fries or the arepitas (deep fried corn meal cakes). Both with enough oily goodness to act as a perfect foil. if you must, skewered grilled veg (peppers, zucchini, onions) works too.
A bright chimmi and what can only be described as a creamy chimmi accompany the steak. Dip everything in the sauces. Trust.
Great also as a sandwich. Good hoagie roll holds in all the juicy slices of picanha. Sauce and grilled veg complete the gut bursting two fister.
At $28 for a plate or $24 for a sandwich, either way, you won't break the bank with the super satisfying fat and flavor filled meal your cardiologist wouldn't approve of.
Order at the counter. Self service seating. Better yet, easy online ordering through grubhub and supply your own booze to round out the meal.
Simple and delicious.
