Description: Brazil Cafe is a very popular local hot spot for students and locals alike. It serves delicious tri-tip steak among other things (I'm a HUGE fan of the tri-tip) from a lovely sidewalk cafe that has chairs outside and booming Brazilian music. It is especially nice to sit here on a sunny day and just eat your yummy Brazilian food while you people watch. This place has been written up many times as a local favorite, and even has been reviewed favorably by National Geographic.
I always get their student meal (they have a whole sign of hand painted specials) that includes a tri-tip sandwich and a cup of their delicious mango smoothie for under $10. I would recommend their smoothie to everybody. For those wary of trying new food, they also give out free samples of their tri-tip and their smoothies regularly. This place is absolutely delicious and makes me wish I still lived in Berkeley. Warning: it is closed on rainy days and will close for dinner at times if the weather is not looking favorable.
