1. Berimbau Brazilian Kitchen
The restaurant is small, cozy, with rustic decor and great service (as most Brazilian places have), plus the food is really fantastic. It is loved not only by carnivores, but also by vegetarians. The portions are very generous, so feel free to share different dishes and try a little of everything.

2. TAP NYC | 100% Gluten-Free Sandwiches & Açaí Bowls | Upper West Side
Of course, we looked for the best coffee shops to work in on the Upper West Side, laptop-friendly coffee shops and not restaurants, but the individual tables are comfortable and you can get some work done for an hour or two, before taking a walk in the nearby park. .

3. Padoca Bakery + Cakes
Located on the Upper East Side, the place has great natural lighting, which is definitely a highlight. Their menu is fantastic for a quick breakfast or a hearty, healthy lunch. They have freshly made pastries, including savory ones, cookies, brownies, and açai bowls. The coffee is very good too!
4. Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse
The waiters go around the table with different meat options and you can choose the ones you want to try or reorder more of the same. Once you're satisfied, simply indicate that you're done by tossing a paper coin (one side is green, meaning you want to be served; the other is red, meaning you're done).

5. Emporium Brasil
One of their star dishes is the ribs, but we especially love the famous camarão na moranga. This is a unique dish made with fresh pumpkin stuffed with shrimp, hearts of palm and catupiry cheese. Yes, this is one of the best Brazilian dishes considered a “national passion”! Very, very tasty.

6. Bar Goyana
If you're looking for another suggestion, I loved their spicy mango margarita. It tastes like you're sitting on the beach instead of on a bar stool.

11. Cafe Patoro
The place is known for the love of the famous Pão de Queijo (PDQ). They explain what it is: “PDQ is a small gluten-free cheese bread roll. With a perfect balance of crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, PDQs are the most delicious when they are hot, right out of the oven.” It's actually hard to explain, so I guess you'll just have to get one and try.

It's a cozy space with minimal seating, but it's open seven days a week. So you have plenty of time to spend in case the lines are too long.
