The name of this restaurant derives from the owner's favorite type of hangout. The cuisine is the result of an interesting experiment in Brazilian-American fusion and it works. Seafood takes on a new and zesty existence, and the salads are full of life. Upbeat Brazilian music helps to make you feel as if you were in Rio, and the artwork here is joyously circus-related. The Feijoada (a black bean and sausage stew) is delicious and memorable. Yellowfin tuna, salmon and many other seafood dishes are cooked and garnished in interesting ways.
