Let customers speak for us
some of our favorite Items
Picanha
Also known as the Coulotte, the Picanha is a very popular cut in churrasco dishes and is gaining recognition in America.
It is amazing because of the incredibly buttery fat cap which is absolutely meant to be consumed and not trimmed off. What makes this great is the meat happens to also be incredibly marbled as you can see.
Iberico Pork
Iberico pork, which comes from Spain, is an incredible eating experience. Unlike American pork, you can consume this pork rare or higher.
It has an incredible nutty flavor that is hard to describe and really just needs to be experienced. It is one of our absolute favorite items that we sell.
Ora King Salmon
Ora King salmon, raised in the pristine waters of New Zealand, is the absolute pinnacle of farmed salmon. With vibrant marbling and a rich, buttery texture, it eats more like Wagyu beef than traditional fish.
Its flavor is incredibly clean, delicate yet decadent, and absolutely unforgettable. Whether served raw, lightly seared, or gently roasted, Ora King is one of those rare ingredients that stops you in your tracks.
