Best Brazilian Restaurants in Des Plaines

I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was exceptional, each dish was full of flavor and the quality of the ingredients was evident. The atmosphere of the place is very pleasant, with a cozy decor that invites you to relax. I was able to enjoy my time and my meal with great satisfaction, which made the evening even more special. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good food in a pleasant setting. I will definitely be returning!

Team did a great job on Valentine’s Day, it was very busy, but I had no complaints. The service and food was great!

Going to a place regularly has it's perks. The servers get to know you the carvers do too and you don't need to ask for anything. I didn't even fully sit down with my plate of salad, card not yet turned to green and I already got my favorite cut of meat (lamb picana) brought to the table. The service was on point the whole dinner and they even made some special requests for me (rare/blueish instead of medium for some of the filet mignons), which I really appreciated. As 99.9% of the time a great meal/experience and service!

Amaru put together a restaurant week menu that was the culinary equivalent of a highlight reel. A bold and well-composed departure from the excellent regular menu, the $60, 3- course tasting menu exemplified the restaurant’s pan-Latin influence. As a four-person party we were able to taste every item from each of the three courses and every plate was a standout. All of the portions were nearly entre-sized and there was an exuberance in the flavors and textures that showcased the kitchen’s mastery. There wasn’t a single dish that I wouldn’t be delighted to see on the regular menu. As always the service was warm and attentive. Bravo.
