The absolute best restaurant experience I’ve ever had. We came here to celebrate my dads birthday and our waiter (whom I wish we asked his name) was super friendly, they even gave us complimentary dessert! Everything was beyond delicious, couldn’t recommend this place more. Please, please, please do yourself a huge favor and come here for one of the best dining experiences you’ll ever have!!

I love this quaint restaurant with the most amazing service and the food is spectacular. I will definitely make this a frequent place to visit and bring everybody. I can possibly think of to enjoy.. I highly recommend the steak and beans and rice and well everything they have.

This was honestly one of the most unique and enjoyable dining experiences I’ve ever had. The restaurant felt so intimate, and is basically set in the basement apartment and courtyard of a family home. The food was literally perfect. You have unlimited access to the buffet which contains sides and salads, and order a main dish. The black beans were the best I’ve ever eaten. The picahna steak was incredibly flavorful and tender. The coconut shrimp dish was incredible, and the Oxtail special served on polenta was simply perfect. The true highlight though was the staff. It felt like they were welcoming you into their own home. Two women working in the open kitchen were so sweet, and our server was a gentleman who was also just great. They were the real treat to the meal, but the whole thing was awesome. Please please go support this super unique place!

We heard they do weekend brunch, buffet style with 2 seatings (2pm and 4pm). Reservations are required...just call ahead. It runs about 40/person. There's an appetizer period before the meal starts. The start is super nice and kind. The food is fantastic and truly delicious. There's so much and it's so good. If you're not walking away stuffed...there's something wrong.

This place was absolutely AMAZING! I felt like I was at my grandma's house eating a special Christmas/Sunday dinner. So many options of high-quality food, but the best part was the owner and her team. Truly hospitable and welcoming. I will be back, I will be highly recommending, and I will be sharing this experience as a gift for loved ones on their special day. Also, it was a very affordable experience for everything we were provided. Thank you for this blessing!!!

Incredibly cozy and authentic atmosphere. The food is just as authentic and is fresh and like it is from your moms kitchen. My wife is from Brazil and we came for the first time to celebrate our 10 year anniversary. She was impressed with every aspect of our experience and we cannot wait to come back with family, friends, and just the two of us. Highly recommend Sinha to anyone

10/10 experience for me! The owner is so very nice and all of the workers too. We made reservations for 4pm and you start off upstairs with some appetizers and drinks. Really nice to mingle with the other guests. Then we were seated downstairs where the food was. There were a few 2 seater tables and the others sat about 10 people. Delicious food!
