Was driving by and caught this place out of the corner of my eye. Thought it Looked authentic, so my wife and I decided to give it a try. Best decision we made! Walked in and the owner greeted us with a hello and friendly smile. Announced that the empanadas are made fresh. We ate there and got to know the owner and sampled everything including the deserts. This place is a 10/10. We will be a new regular going forward.

This is my second trip to Pastel Brazil Cafe. I made sure to go back because last time I didn't take photos and the food was so good. I've had their chicken and beef Pastels. The pastels are made to order, so you'll get a chance to talk to the owner while you wait. Today, I had soda from Brazil, and the owner told me I'd get addicted. He was right. When you go, make sure to try the chocolate chip cookie. You get what you pay for, and with the quality of the foods, it's definitely worth every penny. I'll definitely be going back for more.

I often travel far in search of good food. I found it at Pastel Brazil. The owner was very pleasant and his sister sure knows how to cook. A gem in Port St Lucie.

So good!!! The pastel/empanadas were made fresh to order & weren’t overly fried or under seasoned. They were light & fluffy & perfect. Ive never liked fried empanadas until now! I can’t recommend this place enough. The coxinha was soooo flavorful and crisp. 6 stars!

I tried this place and I was not satisfied. There is a weird smell within the store and with the food. I had an upset stomach with diarrhea after eating from here. I called the place to let him know and he didn't care whatsoever. It is not like I was asking for a refund or anything. I am sorry, I like to try new things, but NEVER AGAIN!

Don't believe the bad review. This place is spotless. No bad smell like the bad review said. The only aroma is good smelling food. A nice small and welcoming place to grab a pastele or other delicious specialties. The sweets are very good too. If you don't like extra spicy food, no problem, they do not put hot stuff in the food. If you want you can add that later. Also kudos for not using ridiculous amounts of salt. All I can say is Mmmm as in yummy!
