There used to be several good Brazilian restaurants in Santa Cruz but today there are only two that I can really recommend.
You pay per kilo (2.2 pounds is one kilo). Basically it’s cafeteria style and you serve yourself as much as you want. They then weigh what you’ve purchased and charge you per weight (including the plate, by the way). You can purchase to-go or to eat in.
They’ve got lots of veggies and salads. I like the variety available. If I find any others, I’ll add them to the list, or if you know of any you can add them by entering info through our Santa Cruz Restaurant Review.
