Community Rating
Reviews via GoogleWhat diners say — our read
The headline average flatters this listing; the recent half does not. Where how guests are treated comes up, the rating that follows averages 5.0, so it reads as a strength.
Conspicuously absent: portion size, which no reviewer brings up. 9 of 14 rated reviews are four stars or higher; 4 are two or lower. 5 stars is the modal score, given by 9 of the 14 reviewers who rated.
Against that, the kitchen inspects well — an A (100/100), nothing cited at the most recent DBPR visit. That inspection was on January 28, 2026. Across its inspection history the kitchen is improving, which argues for giving it the benefit of the doubt. On health score it sits safer than 100% of the Orange County restaurants we grade. The inspector left without citing anything — worth noting, since most visits find something.
Neither signal is decisive on its own here, which is why both are shown. Everything above is computed from the 14 reviews reproduced below.

Watched the Brazil vs Scotland WC 2026 game.

Fui no 2 jogo da seleção na copa. O lugar estava muito cheio, um calor enorme e você não tinha onde colocar o seu balde pq tinham poucas mesas . Eu sugeriria que no caso desses eventos que eles colocassem ao invés das mesas habituais mesas altas que ocupam pouco espaço e que mesmo que não hajam cadeiras suficientes pelo menos temos onde colocar nossas coisas pois do meu lado teve um desentendimento pois um homem sozinho estava com uma mesa e dai a menina educadamente pediu pra por o balde na ponta da mesa pq não tinha nem espaço no chão pra botar e o cara disse não é que ela chegasse cedo . Só não teve confusão mesmo pq foi com uma mulher. A esqueci de falar um absurdo cobrar 20 dólares para entrar .

A Brasileira has fallen in my estimation. Following FIFA's dynamic ticket pricing strategy, the restaurant will charge $20.00 to anyone who wants to watch Brazil's World Cup matches. Regular customers like me have to pay just to watch the national team from which the bar derives its name. Disappointing! A Brasileira caiu no meu conceito. Acompanhando a estrategia da FIFA de preco dinamico de ingressos, o restaurante vai cobrar $20.00 para quem quiser assistir aos jogos do Brasil na copa do mundo. Clientes regulares como eu, tem que pagar para assistir a selecao da qual deriva o nome bar. Lamentavel!

I ordered the Bife Acebolado through Doordash. When I first opened the bag I smiled in satisfaction: their package is impeccable! But I very quickly changed my mind when I saw the food: a mountain of onions and rice with barely a mirage of beef underneath for thirty something dollars!!!! Ridiculous!!!! The fries were completely unseasoned and there were no salt little packs. Big no-no!!! It was the first and last time!
