Plenty of delicious plates to choose from.
If you are a meat lover than this is place is definitely for you.
Friendly staff food doesn't take long to prepare.
Try their empanadas. I shall return.

Thank you for your amazing review.
We value you as a customer and await your next visit here at Brasa Roja Express!


The Whole grilled chicken was really flavourful as with the rice and beans, beef empanada.
Wish I saw the grilled rabbit first but will definitely go bragh to try it.

Many thanks from the team at Brasa Roja Express! We hope to see you again very soon.


First let me start by saying that as soon as you walk in here you are greeted with a smile.
The staff makes you feel welcomed and present you to your table right away.
Churrasco is what I chose from their delish menu.
The price was perfect and the portion was pretty big as you can see on the pics below, medium well is what I chose.
As an appetizer I had their chicharon empanadas and I have to say very tasty.
They were crunchy on the outside and soft plus delish on the inside.
I would totally recommend this place for a nice dinner at an affordable price with large portions of deliciousness...lol enjoy.
