When I opened the DoorDash Special I saw that the steak was too well done, because I had asked for medium-rare and there was no pink at all. That said, the meat was still juicy and absolutely delicious, mainly due to how well the fat on the steak was cooked. I admit I ate the brisket, top sirloin and pork and enjoyed every bite. I had decided to try the veggies, which were some kind of greens with onion and had been cooked in some type of flavored broth, and a warm shredded cabbage dish. The greens had a bit of a bitterness to them that, while not my favorite, were still tasty. I put that down to my particular taste and not to the preparation. I would order the meat again and just get fries and the Brazilian vinaigrette.
The Mousse de Limão was luscious! Creamy, sweet and tart and very filling. I had half with my meal and saved half for tomorrow, as a treat. Give this place a try; I don't think you'll be disappointed.

He amount of food was good for the price. Loved the garlic beef and pork sausage. Only complaint was that the yucca fries were hard to chew. But that could be because it was is a closed container. Otherwise everything else was great

Barely got a mix of meats like I order (1lb of chosen meats); it was almost all top sirloin, and it was cooked well done, not medium like I specified. The sirloin was so tough and chewy it was terrible.
