In Short
This tiny cafe, easily overlooked in the corner of a parking lot despite its brightly colored trimmings, is a gem. The Brazilian owner and his team of chefs serve a variety of exotic sandwiches and salads (with names like "The Ipanema" and "The Bossanova") along with award-winning tri-tip dishes accented by house cilantro-garlic sauce. On hot days, a line of locals and tourists waiting for fresh mango smoothies stretches down the block.

I don't write reviews...but the review that dope gave was sooo far off that I had to do something to attempt to negate it - so here it goes. This place rocks - killer tri-tip, amazing sauce. Overflowing quantities. The veggie sandwiches - try the Carnival - are fantastic and also overflowing. The music is great while you wait to take something to go, or sit and enjoy at one of the most unique places I've ever seen. The owner is great fun and will keep you entertained while you wait.

It's basically a sandwich that looks big because the bread slices are huge and fluffy. The quality of the meat leaves much to be desired. The cilantro sauce is nice though. It's a "sack" and given the low quality, the prices are not justified. You might be fooled into thinking you are getting a good deal, but what you are really buying for $8.50 is a bellyful of dough..I will go elsewhere to spend my $8.50.

The Details on Brazil Fresh Squeeze Cafe

The Extras:

If the owner, Pedro, takes your order, make sure to ask him for his recommendations and let him create something off the menu.

Where to Sit:

Berkeley weather usually favors sunny sidewalk seating, but tables under the canopy on the side of the trailer allow for shaded enjoyment of elaborate paintings and Brazilian music.

Look Good:

Grab as many napkins as you can before sitting down; these sandwiches get messy.
