First time having brazilian food. I've driven by this place many times over the years but never tried it until today. I ordered the picanha plate with cashew juice. It was so delicious! There's also a nice patio area to sit at. The service was excellent as well, food came out fast and the waitress was super friendly. I'll definitely be back again!

Authentic and delicious. Great service. Affordable. Just wish they had a completely enclosed area

Service was above and beyond, and the food was great. We even got some free dessert to celebrate their 8 year anniversary! To 8 more!

Authentic Brazilian food. Beans and rice taste homemade and the picanha is juice. Service was excellent, owner was very attentive.

The food was quite good and plentiful. Remember, you're ordering steak so this isn't inexpensive , but it's cheaper than a fancy Brazilian steakhouse When we were there a whole bunch of Brazilians were ordering, so I'm guessing it's authentic We ordered the plates and a Brazilian soft drink. The steak was well cooked, the sides were good and it came with a Small container of salsa as well as a lovely pepper sauce Casual? Oh yes! It's Located in one of the old Weinerschnitelzel buildings with the eating area covered and "fenced " off from the car park , but you are adjacent to a busy road. This is not a romantic dining spot BUT they do bring the food out to you AND the folks who work there are super nice This is definitely worth trying if you've never been

Say "Welcome to Authentic Brazilian Food!" I was in Torrance, CA visiting a friend in the hospital and I found this delicious and delightful little Brazilian restaurant - Brazilian Plate House. The food was excellent and the entire staff was very friendly and welcoming. I speak a little Portuguese so talking with the owner and her staff was fun. They were very gracious and kind with my pronunciations. I ate here twice now and had the picanha and feijoda on Saturday (Brazilians always have feijoda on Saturdays). On Monday, I had the tilapia Fit plate with yuca, grilled zucchini, fried bananas, and a salad. My only complaint is that they do not have any inside seating and no propane gas heaters on the outside deck. After sunset the outside seating can be chilly in February. So dress warm or get your food to go. Enjoy! You will love it! Em português: diga "Bem-vindo à autêntica comida brasileira!" Eu estava em Torrance, CA visitando um amigo no hospital e encontrei este pequeno e delicioso restaurante brasileiro - Brazilian Plate House. A comida era excelente e toda a equipe foi muito simpática e acolhedora. Falo um pouco de português, então conversar com a proprietária e sua equipe foi divertido. Eles foram muito gentis e gentis com minha pronúncia. Já comi aqui duas vezes e no sábado comi picanha e feijoda (os brasileiros sempre comem feijoda aos sábados). Na segunda-feira pedi o prato Fit de tilápia com mandioca, abobrinha grelhada, banana frita e salada. Minha única reclamação é que eles não têm assentos internos nem aquecedores a gás propano no deck externo. Após o pôr do sol, os assentos externos podem estar frios em fevereiro. Então vista-se bem ou leve sua comida para viagem. Aproveitar! Você vai adorar!

Best Brazilian food I've tried outside Brazil. It tastes just like an authentic homemade cuisine. We ordered 2 different plates, 3 appetizers, drinks, dessert. Everything was phenomenal! The service was fast and friendly. They made sure we had everything and were ok. I wish I lived closer. Would be there every week.

Excellent picanha- tender, tasty, and juicy, especially the fat! Fries were great too. It was well-seasoned and crispy. Fried yucca was much better than the boiled one. It was a tad too expensive ($24 with tax and tip) considering it was a 6oz steak albeit with many sides.

Brazilian Plate House has always been a very unassuming restaurant along Torrance Blvd, but alas I finally decided to give it a try with a few friends on a Saturday afternoon. You order and pay at the window facing the street, and there are plenty of covered outdoor seating adjacent to the restaurant. Prices are fairly steep for what you get, I definitely recommend you check their menu online before going in person. I ordered a carne louca sandwich and fresh guava juice. The Carne Louca sandwich includes shredded beef and onions on a sourdough baguette (kind of reminded me of a Philly cheesesteak without the cheese). It also comes with lettuce, tomatoes, mustard, mayo, and hot sauce on the sauce. The beef was very savory and cooked well, I could pretty much eat the sandwich without any toppings, but the veggies and sauces add a nice touch. Including some cheese would elevate the sandwich to another level. The fresh guava juice was really good and refreshing. It wasn't very sweet, which is what I prefer, and there was a strong guava flavor. It makes for a perfect pick-me-up on a hot day. Overall, I enjoyed the meal, though the prices would probably prevent me from eating here regularly. It's still worth a try if you're in the area!
