Put Silva’s Fresh Eatery + Churrascaria on Your New Restaurant to Go to List
Silva’s Fresh Eatery + Churrascaria has an authentic menu for nearby residents, travelers, and food lovers. Churrascaria is Portuguese, the most common language in Brazil, and refers to a steakhouse or barbeque. The modern decor, large wall of windows, Brazilian wood striped dining tables, large black and white photos of Brazilian athletes, and bar seating makes for an ideal place to grab a bite on your own, have a dinner date, or gather together your friends. The menu has something for meat lovers, the healthy-minded types, and fans of Brazilian cuisine.

Silva’s Fresh Eatery + Churrascaria has become a popular steakhouse in the South Coast Metro area. I had the pleasure of dining at Silva’s Fresh Eatery for dinner. The restaurant is where to dine while in the city for happy hour after work with colleagues, before seeing a play at the theater down the street, or after a day of shopping at the prestigious South Coast Plaza. Perfect for enjoying a delicious meal with family or dining with friends for a birthday.
"Our recipes are authentic, fresh and put together using the best organic, locally grown vegetables and highest quality proteins," General Manager Alex Ferreira. "This is a family operated business, and the care we put into every detail of the restaurant can be seen and tasted by our customers." (Bradley Public Relations & Marketing)
Grab a plate. Silva’s Fresh Eatery + Churrascaria is inspired by the owner’s aunt and her home cooking. Not only does the eatery offer quality meats, such as Garlic Picanha - Garlic and Fresh Herb Culotte Style Top Sirloin, the Chef’s Table of items includes fresh organic and seasonal greens, broccolini and grape salads, and sides such as a thrilling Brazilian stew and Feijão Jalo - Pinto beans prepared with onions and garlic. The serve yourself, all you can eat, Chef’s Table is a crowd pleaser.
Delicious sounding items on the kitchen menu include Esfirra - Ground Beef, Garlic, and Herbs Baked in Pastry as an appetizer, Mama Silva’s Classic Chicken Stroganoff - Mama’s special Chicken Stroganoff served over Basmati Rice with her special sauce as an entree, Calabresa Pizza - Calabrese Sausage, Mozzarella, Onions, and Olives. Silva’s also offers a “Power Lunch”, a one time through experience of the Chef’s Table Monday through Friday. The Chef’s Table, quality meats, healthy selections, and organic ingredients sets Silva’s apart from other steakhouses.
Alex Ferreira, brother of the owner, shared with me that at Silva’s the staff strives to make people smile. The restaurant is a business, yes, yet Alex and the team want to be good members of the community and treat people in a friendly manner as if customers were in his own home. That passion is key to making Silva’s stand out. The homemade desserts is another way Silva’s makes people happy.
The following items are the standouts at the all you can eat, serve yourself, Chef’s Table at Silva’s Fresh Eatery + Churrascaria.
Yucca fries, crispy on the outside and rightly salted, served with aioli (sauce made of garlic and olive oil)
