Go for the succulent pulled pork (alone or nestled atop a roll, doused in pickled cabbage and the famed, addictive "green sauce ") and so-good-it-can’t-be-good-for-you creamed spinach Read more

City Pages

Most everything is great, though this critic is partial to the deeply flavored rice and pigeon peas with local ham , and the cabbage salad , an ephemeral, minty elevation of traditional cole slaw . Read more

Ricki Groskreutz

Try as we might, we haven't come across a single item we didn't like. Sprinkle the Hot Pepper Vinegar on your scratch made tortilla chips - ADDICTIVE!

Nicholas Kolnik

The Butterscotch Pudding will be the best $3 you spend in your life.

Robin Edman

The rice and beans are the best, just a little spicy . Be warned, though. In the evening the service is excruciatingly slow. It's worth it, unless you're in a hurry.

Nicole

The sandwiches are amazing-pulled chicken and pork ! Also the sides are tasty and you can get a few to share. One of my favorite places!

Nicholas Kolnik

The slow-roasted pork sandwich is stupid good.

Ogul Sertac Kayserilioglu

Mekaka soup . The legendary soup ... If you like fish , you should order that one. soup includes fish , shrimp , rice and a little spice. Try it!

Jeremy Dowd

Inventive non-alcoholic drinks, well-seasoned slow cooked meats, and soulful sides make for a great meal. Restaurant opens all windowed doors in the summer for a fresh breeze.

City Pages

Voted top 15 places to eat with kids! The food is responsibly farmed , free of chemicals, and abounding in delicious vegetable options.

Their scrambled eggs were so nice and fluffy, and I love their rice and beans.

Erik Laing

Order to share, its the right thing to do, and the pulled chicken is surprisingly good!

Erica Dao

Order the over easy egg & pulled pork bowl . And a corn muffin . To. Die. For. This will now be the only thing I order here.

Nathan Stohlmann

The entire menu is excellent but the fried yuka is always a standout.

Lee Zukor

We love the pulled pork & beef & just about everything else here (collards , grits , yams , etc). My kids go for the rotisserie chicken & organic rice . Local Food Lovers get a free entree when you buy 1 Read more

Tarah Davis

Whatever sauce comes with the Rotisserie Chicken is DELICIOUS! Try it!

Mpls.St.Paul Magazine

The mojo sauce that comes with the slow-roasted pork should be used on everything: pulled chicken , yucca fries , shoe leather, everything.

Fernando Flores

Heavy Table

Smoked & Braised Beef : slow cooked, chopped, and seasoned with the Brasa's "signature" mild sauce . Tender and robust, with a hint of sweetness, it just shouts: "beef !" Read more

ᴡ Thompson

Great family style local restaurant . Emphasis on rotisserie/Southern-style cooking. Try the yams & andouille sausage !

Mike Wassenaar

All good. Collards tremendous. Creamed Spinach to die for. Yuca with mojo picante muy sabrosa.

Laura Heurung

You've never had brussels spouts like this before. Wow!

Poe Kopp

The last few times I have been to Brasa the food was not worth the high price. I would not recommend it- the pulled pork was dry and the green tomatoes were so thin and only 3 slices.

David Edgerton Jr.

Braised beef , black beans , and yellow rice . Don't forget the pineapple ginger ale .

Carrie Rigdon

I like the food but after sitting at our table for 15 minutes with no service (place was not busy), we left

Laura Heurung

Order the Yuca , I dream about the green sauce .
