Brasilis BBQ is the straightforward way into Danbury's Brazilian food scene: a churrascaria on Main Street where skewers of picanha, sausage, and chicken hearts come off the grill and onto your plate, backed by a buffet of rice, beans, farofa, and salads sold by the pound at lunch. It is the kind of place Brazilian expats actually eat, which in Danbury — home to one of New England's largest Brazilian communities — is saying something.
Don't expect polish; expect generous portions, guaraná soda in the fridge, and Portuguese as the default language of the room. Weekend lunches are the liveliest time to come. If the rodizio format is new to you, pace yourself — the meat keeps coming until you signal stop.
