Reviews for Via Brasil Restaurant in New York, NY
After a broadway show, this was our next stop. Food was really good. Restaurant was really nice but the ladies bathroom was... disgusting. Read more
This review is based on a Saturday afternoon visit at approximately 2:00 pm. Not crowded, plenty of seating available. This was... our second visit to this establishment. Our first visit three years ago was wonderful, not so much this time. The food was overcooked, over priced and overall disappointing. The picanha was burnt, the chicken was tough, the pao de queijo was cold, andthe caipirinha was not authentic tasting at all. The desserts were fabulous and the restaurant was very clean and our waiter wasvery nice, knowledgeable and friendly. Sadly, I would not return nor recommend. Read more
I love Brazilian food so was excited to try via BRASIL which is located in little brazil in nyc next to Times Square . We got... the pao do queijo (cheese buns) which were not the best (they didn’t have enough cheese in them + they didn’t have white /green sauce to accompanied it). For main I got the picanha (Brazilian sirloin) which was good. I do want to go back for themoqueca. Service was little bit weird. Not sure if they fully understood us / when we requested things.

My meal was good as was the service. I didn't try the meat offerings and probably should have. I had a shrimp over pasta dish.
The best Brazilian food I have had in the States. Great service too. Restroom is extra small and could be kept a little bit... better. Read more
It was pretty good. I'm used to the picanha and black beans being a little saltier, but this may match Americans taste buds a... bit better. Read more
The Brazilian sausage and manioc fries appetizer was good. We ordered 3 steaks and it took a long time, over an hour. All three... steaks at our table were actually over cooked and we each got a different cut of meat (sirloin, NY strip, and filet mignon) Iordered a medium rare steak and it was so over cooked to the point it was almost inedible. Normally, I would’ve sent it backbut I couldn’t imagine waiting another hour for dinner. The passion fruit mousse was good! Read more
I got the feijoada from the menu. It was more than enough food for two people. All the food was cooked properly and it had... enough spices especially on point for salt. I don’t know if it is the dish but it was a bit luck luster in flavor. Like it wasmissing something to make it really special. Service was fast and in point. Read more
