Brazilian Restaurants in Dublin

If you’ve ever craved authentic Brazilian food while in Dublin, you’re in luck. The city’s got a handful of spots that don’t just throw the word ‘Brazilian’ on the menu but actually nail the flavours. You’ll find places serving rich feijoada, that slow-cooked black bean stew with pork that hits just right on a cold evening. And for the meat lover, a nicely grilled picanha steak with a squeeze of lime is available in several restaurants around the city.

For a truly local experience, hit up the eateries around Smithfield or along Camden Street where some of these Brazilian joints have settled in. They bring more than food , there’s always the sound of samba or the chance to sip on a well-made caipirinha (don’t be shy about asking them to make it with fresh lime). One spot I keep going back to is Alma, where the portions are generous and the atmosphere feels genuine, not overdone for tourists.

Pro tip: Brazilian food is all about sharing, so try going with friends to sample several dishes rather than ordering just one. And keep an eye out for their festival nights, especially around Carnaval time when places get lively with music and dancing, reminding you you’re not just in Dublin but a bit of Brazil too.
