Samba Taste of BrazilSamba Taste of Brazil - A SurpriseJust down Main Street from the Hopkins Art & Theater Complex, this little restaurant & limited Brazilian grocery was a very pleasant surprise. The tomato & cheese pastel was perfect. I had the seafood Moqueca, which was excellent. Everyone in our party of four had good food. A special treat was a Brazilian guitar player singing softly in the background. Good food, good service, good prices. This is not a fancy place, but we will definitely recommend it to anyone.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellent lunch spotThis is a great place for lunch - the food is really good, at a great price, and it does not take long to arrive.

Located on the small town's mainstreet, it's a fun spot for groups, welcoming to families and kind of romantic. Fantastic food (you must try the cheese bread!), wonderful desserts (the flan is to die for) and one of the best selections of Brazilian wine/beer I've found, this place has found a spot in my heart -- or more notably, my stomach!3/19/2013 12:00:00 AM
