Not one typically to write reviews, but after many enjoyable meals here (coming since 2005), it is high time to write one about Alameda. Restaurants come and go in Beijing, as does the quality of the food depending on the Chef in the kitchen - providing consistency in the quality of the food over time is something that most places in Beijing are unable to do. Alameda; however, is an exception to that, and they have found the recipe to consistent quality dishes, well trained wait staff, and a wonderful ambience, which always includes the colorful owner and head chef (both Brazilian). I have yet to have a bad dining experience over the several dozens of times I have been there since 2005. And they do this, while at the same time providing what I believe to be one of the best value dining experiences in the SanLiTun area. Their lunch rapido (business set) is still the gold standard for quality food and great price. The Saturday Brazilian Feijoada Lunch specials is one of the best kept secrets in the city, and I highly recommend all to try if they have not yet.
Thanks to the Alameda team for being you! Keep on doing what you do, and I'll be seeing you soon enough...getting hungry just writing this!
