How's your salsa skill set? Can you dance the night away to a lively beat? Brazilian jazz and Latin sounds accompany dishes inspired by the respective cuisines, although the lobster bisque---which is neither---rivals the best in town. Fine house-made mozzarella adorns an herb-laced salad. Ground lamb cooked with Moroccan spices and presented on skewers as if it were lollipops make a good nosh, with three of them gracing the plate. Executive chef Chad Anderson manages to keep up the quality level under most challenging circumstances, as on weekends, when the place is packed. The wine list is so-so, but Brazilian-inspired mixed drinks---the caipirinha, for instance---and mojitos supplement.
