Dinner was amazing! The mini feijoada was bigger than expected and very tasty. The custard dessert was on point as was the caipirinha.

Really wanted to like this place but the food simply was not good. I’ve visited Brazil and been to a few Brazilian restaurants, so one thing I know: Brazilian food is great! And Brazilians know how to cook! The food here tasted like someone’s attempt at Brazilian food. The price point was moderate I’d say, but the quality of the food was subpar. I had the short ribs in a “red wine” sauce, and it was salty, tough, and hard to get off the bone. My son described his piranha as “edible.” We did enjoy the pork ribs, but sadly not enough to rate this food any higher.

I lived in Brazil and Rice x Beans is the best Brazilian food I've had in the US in a very long time. Feijoada was excellent, as was the Bobo do camarao. Order the coxinhas as an appetizer -- they were as good as the best I've ever had. Great place.

The food was very good, the service was attentive, the atmosphere was comfortable. The drinks were very good, and the price was reasonable, overall the experience was great. It is a small dining room but they manage it well. We had 4 of the menu items and two appetizers, everything was delicious.
