We came in here just for drinks and also ended having some snacks. They were good but this is the first time we tried Brazillian food so can't really compare it to anything else. We really liked the chill atmosphere and the whole vibe of the place. Our server was very friendly!

Amazing little cozy Brazilian/Belgium place with really fantastic cocktails. The Brazilian appetizer and food are authentic and delicious and the mousse desserts from Chef Johan are sublime! Obrigado

The spot's millennial core decor didn't overshadow the super friendly service. The drinks were consistently well-balanced and delicious. Ordering everything on the menu revealed the kitchen's consistent quality. The coxinha stood out, crispy on the outside with a delicious filling, enhanced by the awesome green sauce. The stews and meat dishes were all nicely executed, tender, and flavorful. This place offers an overall excellent dining experience, and the prices are reasonable. The coxinha's textural contrast, crispy exterior and soft filling, was a highlight, the herbaceous and slightly acidic green sauce complemented it well. The meat dishes showed tender cuts, signaling careful preparation and appropriate cooking. The stews were rich and deeply flavored, indicating skillful layering of ingredients. Portion sizes were appropriate for the prices, enhancing the value. The ambiance, despite its specific aesthetic, was secondary to the food. The friendly service added to the welcoming atmosphere. This joint is commendable for its consistent quality and value, making it a worthwhile dining destination.

Bar Goyana is the most lovely, welcoming taste of Brazil in NYC. My husband and I were first introduced to this gem by friends, and then knew that we had to have our wedding dinner here. My husband is from Rio de Janeiro and was thrilled to find a Brazilian spot so close to us. Jackie and Johan (the owners) are truly the best - some of the nicest people we’ve ever met They helped make our day so special. Now we love going for any occasion and especially love going for the parties and themed nights they host!

I had an amazing family lunch at this Brazilian restaurant, and everything was perfect. The warm, tropical, and classic ambiance made us feel right at home. I started with an Aperol Spritz, which was perfectly refreshing, and enjoyed a delicious beef stroganoff—tender, flavorful, and comforting. The service was outstanding; the staff was attentive and friendly, making the whole experience even better. It’s a fantastic spot for a relaxed yet memorable meal. Highly recommend it for anyone craving authentic Brazilian flavors!

We had a great lunch yesterday with Jovana- the food was so good and we loved the service and feel of the Bar/Dining Room. We sat at a high top and had the Pastel, Queijo Coalho, and Jalepeno Parmesan Pao de queijo - then of course... TWO feijoadas. My wife had their incredible caparenas (guava/passion fruit), and I had multiple Duvals. Delicious meal, can’t wait to come back.

I can’t say enough of good things in this restaurant. The cocktails are fancy and delicious so we got 2 glasses for each of us! The appetizers are just incredible tasty(we ordered 4 out of 6 from the menu) so I recommend you should try all of them. Moreover, you MUST try Brazilian Chicken Fricasse OMG it’s sooooo goooood!!!! The staffs are very efficient, happy, and polite. Highly recommended for Bar Goyana!!!! We’ll definitely be back soon :)) sorry I didn’t have a lot of food pics(it’s all gone so quickly right after they put them on the table )
