Brasa Roja Express is a delightful gem tucked away on Elston Ave! 🌟 From the moment you walk in, the friendly staff welcomes you with genuine smiles. I indulged in their mouthwatering churrasco, cooked to perfection with a generous portion size. The crispy chicharrón empanadas served as a tasty appetizer – so good!

Their whole grilled chicken is bursting with flavor, and I can't wait to try the grilled rabbit next time. With great prices and a cozy atmosphere, this Colombian family restaurant is a must-visit for both lunch and dinner... I’ll be back soon! 🥳
