   Reserved for a surprise birthday celebration for my wife. Came in day of to finalize the details everything seemed perfect. Once the guest arrived for dinner they were told the reservation had been cancelled and was never seated. Once I arrived with my wife (surprise now ruined because everyone is in front of the restaurant 😔), I had to some what argue with the staff to get everyone seated. The staff seemed to have no knowledge of any of the details to the party and I was extremely disappointed.

   The dining room experience was lovely. Our server was attentive but not hovering. The customer service manager made sure the experience was a delight. The bar team leaves a lot to be desired but I’m sure with time they’ll work out their kinks. The espresso martinis are perfect.

   FOOD WAS VERY TASTY. SERVICE WAS A LITTLE TO BE DESIRED. I THINK OUR WAITER WAS OVERWHELMED WITH HAVING TO SERVE OTHER TABLES.

   Eating here is an experience, not just a fabulous meal. So many choices for the starters that it was hard to control trying everything. I highly recommend trying foods you have not tried before as there are so many Brazilian options you will not find in other restaurants. I recommend any of the meats and take it slow. They come around and bring more meat as often as you want it. The cocktails and mocktails were lovely. I enjoyed the pineapple old fashioned; my friends enjoyed the mocktail martini and the blood orange martini. We had the Brazilian chocolate cake which is called the brigadiero. It's so very chocolatey but more sweet than dark chocolate.

   The dining experience was amazing. My boyfriend and I are normals at the National Harbor’s location where the bar menu is only enjoyed at the bar. At this location, you are able to enjoy the bar menu in the main dining area. The tables are differentiated by colored puckers so that the servers know who are participating in the experience and who’s not. I enjoyed the lamb board, the chicken sliders, empanadas, and a chilled bottle of Rośe. For some reason my Happy birthday pucker was removed from my table at a point and while leaving I noticed that there was a gentleman seated behind that had a beautiful a happy birthday dessert plate. One the host, (I sure wish I could remember his name) compensated for it giving us a free dessert to take home and STILL brought a Happy Birthday presentation. Ambiance- 10/10 Service- 10/10 Food-10/10 Drinks-10/10 Pricing- 10/10 (final bill was under $100 for food for two persons and a bottle of wine) Overall- 10/10

   Our dinner was good, we had fun, and it was a bit overpriced but only as expected.
