Enjoyed the meal, this place was recommended to me and it was quite delicious had some pasteles which are a fried rectangular dish stuffed with your choice— I had cheese and pastel de palmito. It is quite greasy so make sure you get some napkins. There is a large language barrier where the members speak only in Portuguese which is a minor problem although had a tough time communicating for the wait time. They make these fresh so be prepared to wait. It also gets pretty hot inside so may feel uncomfortable on a hot day. It’s a cute little shop and highly recommend supporting local shops!

Absolutely delicious food (very affordable) and excellent service. I used to eat here everyday during lunch, for almost 2 years. Highly recommended!

Very easy to access via public transit (Davis Sq to Sullivan Sq bus), this tucked away pastelaria takes you south if the equator to true Brazilian delights. They offer a massive selection of pastéis, from chicken and cheese to guava and cheese. The coxinha was a bit too large and the chicken in the middle dried out a bit. Overall, the chicken seemed a bit dry but was definitely redeemed by the crispy, flaky shell of the pastéis itself (easy to air fry!). I definitely will be returning, with so many more things to try

store closed 30 minutes earlier (4:30 pm) than the time posted on the glass at the main entrance. IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME, if you're going to close 30 minutes earlier, let them know on the itinerary that the store is open until 5 but 30 minutes earlier they won't accept any more customers, horrible!

I normally love their food however there must have been a drop in quality control. I bought 3 mousse de Maracujá this morning as a gifts for my friends only to find out when I arrived that there was mold in them. Check what you buy before you leave. It’s difficult to tell but I know it’s moldy because the spots of blue are furry in comparison to the rest of the cream

Nice pastelitos! The girl at the cash register spoke good English, Spanish and Portuguese which is helpful. She was also very helpful and patient taking the time to explain to me what things where and the prices. I got a cavasa coconut pudding bread , flan, and a chocolate hazelnut cake bomb. I also had beef and cheese and onion pastelitos which were so good right out the fryer. Only thing was that it was kind of expensive for what I got. Pastelitos where 7$ each, casava coconut bread 3$, flan 4$, chocolate bomb 3.50$, 2L soda 5$. I recommend the pastelitos for sure!

I love there, everyone is friend and niece. Excellent employees and Brazilian food you won't regret!
