About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Great for scenic views
  • Good for special occasions
We would like to welcome you to join us for a taste of Brazil. Enjoy our second story wraparound view of the scenic Channel Island Harbor Marina, with a back drop of the Ventura Hills as you experience authentic Brazilian Cuisine such as feijoada and of course our signature dish, the Moqueca. We take your choice of seafood, marinated it in lime and garlic – lobster, shrimp, fish and an array of shellfish – and prepare with family recipes, in the beautifully bubbling clay pot or Moqueca cooking style.
We also offer the most popular Brazilian drink, the refreshing “caipirinha” made with Cachaca (Brazilian liquor derived from unrefined sugar cane), as well as a full bar and a selection of many others Brazilian cocktails.

    BEWARE Charged Double Tip! My husband and I had a small gathering 2 weeks. I tip the 20% of the bill. When I left out the restaurant and reviewed my receipt I noticed that I was automatically charged a 18% Tip because I had a group of 8. I immediately called the restaurant and was assured by the manager that she would not charge me the additional 20% Tip making my total tip 38%. However, the manager LIED and charged me for the additional Tip. They even removed the 18% TIP LINE ITEM on the "copy" they sent my credit card company to dispute the charge. However, I kept the original receipt. UNPROFESSIONAL, SHADY, DECEITFUL and FRAUDS! BEWARE DO NOT TIP!!!! The restaurant

    I booked my reservation though open table. When I got to the reservation (I printed the reservation I had made a week ahead of time for the address) they told me they no longer took reservations through Open table even when I showed them my reservation. I was told to wait for the manager and waited 10 minutes before the hostess decided tha good customer relationship meant that she should honor the reservation and sit us anyone. Now, I will confirm with reservation. What was nice is that Open Table had sent me a text that it was time to drive to the restaurant. It knew my location at hotel and that traffic was heavy and we needed the 40 minutes to drive the 5 miles

    I recommend this place for those of you who are adventurous eaters. The food was delicious and different from other Brazilian restaurants we have experienced. We started our dinner experience with an order of Capa Santa Gratinada which were basically scallops and an order of Lula Frita or fried calamari. These were good but nothing extraordinary. Then we ordered the Moqueca Mista de Mariscos and the Paella Capixaba and we were surprised at the generous portions of the food. Everything was well cooked and had good flavors. The waiters were pleasant and did their best to serve us well. The ambiance was enhanced by live music. Overall it was a very nice experience. I do recommend this place.

    I arrived at the restaurant and said I had reservations. They did not have my name, and then said they do not honor "Open Table" reservations anymore. Luckily, it was a slow night and we got a table. We enjoyed the meal.

    This was our first visit and we expected a very good dining experience and were not disappointed. We liked the idea of splitting a course with a very generous portion for two. The guitar music was a little too loud when sitting near the bar area. We recommend sitting in the west end of the dining room. We will return.

    We had dinner with friends prior to going to a comedy club and the food and service was superb. We had a few appetizers and shared them - all very tasty and the moqueca dishes were fantastic. I had the seaford and it was to die for - so fresh!
