Quince was awesome. I had the spinach and tried the bacon and broccoli with a salad. Homemade salad dressing was amazing. My server was very helpful. They also make their own homemade healthy drinks which I tried the Green Detox. Nice little spot and very welcoming.

My friend Josie raved about this place so much and she was right as usual. We had the best Cheese Bread Waffles (I thought it would be impossible to top already perfect Brazilian cheese bread but fortunately I was wrong), Chicken Potato Balls (trust me, they look and taste much better than they sound!) and Feijoada which came with the freshest and tastiest collard greens imaginable. Prices were so reasonable I was able to take home one of each and every single dessert! My favorites were the flan, lemon cake and chocolate alfajores. María, please consider opening a Miami location or I may have to move to be closer to your amazing food and hospitality 🙂

Ended up stopping here with a friend when the restaurant we’d planned to go to was closed. I’m glad we did! This place is an adorable little cozy hole in the wall. The food was fresh and delicious and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. It’s a very intimate setting with only four tables and the food is made fresh daily so you may not always be able to get the same things. It feels more like you’re having a meal at someone’s house rather than a restaurant. And they had fresh baked desserts too! I had a chocolate chip cookie, which is apparently made by one of the staffs daughters and it was really yummy! This place also offers a lot of healthy alternatives and options for people with food sensitivities, such as vegan options and gluten free. I had a yummy crispy chicken dish with cheesy mash and mushrooms and the flavors were wonderful! The perfect spot for a meal with friends.

Adorable atmosphere, they bring you treats while you wait, and the food was excellent! The cheese bread waffles are to die for and the BEST flan!

If you haven’t discovered this charming spot in the heart of Auburndale yet, you’re missing out. We stopped in to try the Burger Week Turkey Burger and left absolutely impressed. It exceeded our expectations in every way the flavor, freshness, and presentation were on point.
From the moment we walked in, the hospitality was next level. The young lady at the counter was exceptionally kind and attentive, making us feel welcome right away. The vibe is cozy and inviting adorable without being overdone, making it perfect for a relaxed meal that still feels special.
This is not your average Polk County fare. If you’re craving something flavorful, fresh, and delightfully off the beaten path, do yourself a favor and drop by. The quality of the food and warmth of the service make this place a must visit. You’ll be pleasantly surprised and likely coming back for more.

My family and I came here for lunch today! We were so happy to hear that was a Brazilian restaurant bistro around here. The food was delicious, and the “pão de mel.” The service was superb and the atmosphere great.
We will be back.
