Brasa's opened this week on 331 north of the bay. I went to get take-out Friday night on a friend's recommendation and was impressed. The interiors were nice, the food was good, and the service was FANTASTIC. I believed it is owned by the same people who own Coco's. It is a latin grill not mexican food. The entrees are around $15.00. Please support this restaurant. Those of us who live in Freeport need it! :biggrin:

We had chicken tamales and beef spring rolls as an appetizer. Then we split the pork chops with beans, rice, and plantains. YUM!

I noticed the open sign in the window today, but there were zero (0) cars there, so I didn't stop for lunch. Please tell me lunch entrees are less than $15?

I noticed that they had a separate lunch menu.

Olive and SJ - LOVE LOVE LOVE your new tars that I barely paid attention to the topic at hand....food sounds great but please do indeed confirm that lunch is a bit more reasonable than $15/plate.

Other than that, thanks for sharing.

I am telling you, Freeport will be the place to go for food in the future. There are some awesome developments coming about in Freeport, much different from most in SoWal, but just as cool if not more so.

Brasa Latin Grill lunch review! Uncle Timmy, Spidey and I went yesterday and had an "average" meal. We had Arroz con Pollo, served with black beans and fried plantains, Columbian style. It was tasty (especially the black beans) but not at all spicey (we were wishing for some Louisiana hot sauce). Our appetizer was a Salman tartar with onion and lemon juice served on a fried tortilla, on a bed of chopped spinach - interesting and enjoyable.

The restaurant is really nicely decorated and neat as a pin. It has a very small and adorable bar. They serve beer and wine.

Yes, they have cuban sandwiches and I'll be tack to try it. They have a more extensive dinner menu - which I didn't really look at - but we enjoyed the food enough to go back and try again.

Very different food experience for this area. Average pricing.

I'm afraid it ain't gonna compare to Miami latino food, sorry to say. but, still a good place for something different around here.

I went for lunch yesterday and feel very similar...I had the Burrito Latino but with chicken instead of beef. Also tasted arroz con pollo...it was ok. The pico de gallo is what made my burrito especially tasty, but I had to ask for more of it. Looks like it is owned by the same people as Coco's? Or at least a guy who used to work/works at Coco's was in there.
