"Na próxima vez tiro fotos. Amo esse churrasco de rua. Lá somos recebidos como antigos amigos pelo Pablo... esse é o nome desse simpático uruguaio erradicado no Brasil e que trouxe sua expertise em cortes de carnes para nos dar o prazer de comer um maravilhoso churrasco suculento e super saboroso. O ambiente descontraído das ruas do subúrbio do Rio completamente o charme e a experiência...! Super recomendo."

"Petiscos maravilhosos. Frango macio e com um tempero sensacional. Espetinho de Baby beef super macio e suculento. Espeto de linguiça de pernil divino. Cerveja super gelada que vinha numa taça de vidro congelada. Ele é bem simpático e a mocinha que deve as mesas é pura simpatia também"
