We who live far from home miss enjoying real Brazilian food and we always research different options of restaurants that offer meals of the rich cuisine of Brazil. If you're going through San Francisco Bay Area (San Francisco Bay area) you can also take the opportunity to discover the options of Brazilian restaurants in the region and let go of, in our opinion, the best food in the world! Shall we check?

BRAZILIAN RESTAURANTS IN SAN FRANCISCO

We select 16 restaurants in the San Francisco area to taste Brazilian delights. Some of them have more than one unit and, therefore, the total on the map is 18 restaurants. Half of them have our barbecue as their cuisine, so different from any other in the world. There are also other options such as cafes, pizzas, Minas Gerais food, etc. We we don't know them all, but they are on our list! To make it easier, we've put the restaurants on a map to help you locate them.
