The Goianeiro buffet: farofa with eggs, fried plantains, fries, roast chicken and stews

Our story

“With the unmistakable flavor of Minas and the love of Goiás’ heart, we created Restaurante Goianeiro.”

Goianeiro brings the food of Brazil’s heartland to the Seattle area: slow-simmered beans, crackling torresmo, cassava fried golden, greens sautéed in garlic and meat straight off the coals. Comida de verdade — real food, made the way it is back home.

Minas e Goiás · Sabor de casa

From our kitchen

On the coals, in the pot, out of the oven.

Churrasco na brasa

Skewers turning slowly over live coals — beef, sausage and chicken grilled the Brazilian way, then sliced right onto your plate.

Feijão tropeiro

The classic of Minas Gerais: beans tossed with toasted cassava flour, crispy pork belly, collard greens and egg.

Torresmo, mandioca & couve

Golden cassava, crackling pork belly and garlicky collard greens — the trio every Brazilian table knows by heart.

Sizzling cast-iron plate of sliced steak, onions and fries under melted cheese

Na chapa

Sliced steak and onions brought to the table still sizzling on cast iron, piled with fries and melted cheese.
