This is a very rare vegan recommendation for a Brazilian restaurant, but the Brazil-loving carnivorous friend I met for dinner at Rice x Beans was equally pleased. It was such a treat to enjoy a delicious, well balanced, and attractive meal without feeling like it was slapped together as a second tier consideration. The rice and beans are, in fact, delicious as were all the vegetables that came with them. Service was attentive and fast. A delightful evening altogether!

Mixed experience. Food is fun and executed with care. Drinks as well were great. But the service and energy is off.

I took my daughter to Rice and Beans on 11/2/24 as her birthday dinner after a show. I wanted something different and decided on Brazilian food. I couldn’t have made a better choice for dinner. The food was delicious and sooooo fresh! Everything arrived nice and hot (temperature wise). The waiter told us the owner is the chef and even the desserts are made in house. The honey cake we had for dessert was served warm and oh so good. We will be back and I will highly recommend Rice and Beans to anyone. PS- If you are a seafood lover - the seafood stew is incredible and my daughter’s steak was perfection.

Rice x Beans is so much more than it appears to be when you first step in. At first, it looks like a quaint bar on a busy 10th Avenue in Hell’s Kitchen with a small seating area in the back. What it really is is a terrific restaurant with a talented and creative chef, excellent servers, and a charming bar in the front. We split the Brazilian salad which was huge and absolutely loaded with not only flavor but all kinds of seafood and vegetables. The shrimp in an acorn squash for dinner is not only delicious but beautifully presented and full of shrimp, and the grilled salmon with capers was very good. The waiters were charming and so much more engaged than your typical New York waiters - they actually seemed to care about the food, the restaurant, and our experience there. The only drawback for me was that the bar did not serve Chardonnay, but with it being a Brazilian restaurant, this seems like an unfair thing to complain about. Highly recommend!
