![]() Churrascos Restaurant Review: Chef-owner Michael Cordúa’s signature dish is the churrasco, a charcoal-grilled center-cut beef tenderloin steak, butterflied in a jelly-roll fashion and basted with chimichurri sauce. To avoid eating all the addictive, and gratis, plantain chips, start with a soulful soup like the deep black bean served in a sourdough bread boule or the Peruvian lobster-and-crab chowder. We also like the crisp salads with hearts of palm and creamy cilantro dressing. For variety, try the cerdo marinero, marinated pork tenderloin with lump crab meat, avocado, yucca and shrimp. With every entrée, expect an innovative array of vegetables: grilled yellow squash, zucchini, potatoes, garlic spinach, sautéed mushrooms and fried yucca. Somehow, save room for the tres leches cake, a dense vanilla cake laced with three creams and smothered in a rich meringue topping. We prefer the décor at this location, which is stylishly rustic with animal skin rugs, red painted accent walls and South American artifacts. |
