- AAaronWashington, D.C. Area •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoHaving never before eaten Brazilian food, I recently went to Brazil and ate delicious food there. My wife had also never had Brazilian food and was unable to accompany me to Brazil. So, to attempt to bridge the gap, I took her to The Grill from Ipanema. The food was delicious! (I was very similar to what I ate in Brazil, in the best way!) Our server was excellent: friendly and attentive without being overbearing. We will definitely be returning!More infoThe Grill from Ipanema - DCPrice: Moderate• Brazilian• Adams Morgan•4.6
