Have you ever tried Brazilian pizza? Me either. Well that is until we visited Braccia Pizzeria & Ristorante, one of Park Avenue’s newest restaurants. We recently tasted all that Braccia has to offer from savory and sweet pizzas to hand-made pastas and other Brazilian-Italian fusion dishes. A relatively small space, but one that’s filled with charm and authenticity. This cross-cultural fusion is certainly one of a kind in town and a spot worth visiting if you’re looking for something different for dinner.

Here’s a wide range of what we sampled and recommend if you’re craving some international flavor.

Beef Carpaccio: Paper thin beef slices with mixed greens, caper sauce with homemade pizza crisps.

Speciality Pizzas – Portuguese, Chicken with Catupiry, Brie with Apricot and Canadian Ham with Mango Chutney: A menu flooded with pizzas served on a flaky crust akin to a delicate cracker. Vastly different than America’s version, this pizza is made with a thin crust, a light pomodoro sauce and toppings with nods to both Brazil and Italy.

Fish en Croite: Fresh Cod in a chestnut crust accompanied by a Sicilian risotto. A mild and flaky fish infused with flavor thanks to it’s chestnut exterior. Paired with the creamy risotto, this dish is sure to make you a fan of Brazilian-Italian cuisine.

Tucked right behind Park Avenue, Braccia Pizzeria & Ristorante is sure to mix up your palate!
