Who’s the Bossa?

bossa.jpg 001Bossa Grill, the fast and casual Brazilian restaurant planned for 3242 N. Rock Road, is just about finished. Its owner, Alberto Moreira, says it will open after the July 4 weekend, though he doesn’t have a specific date.

I drove past the building this morning and it looks nice. It has sort of a Pei Wei feel, and that’s exactly how Moreira describes the place. He says it will be similar to Pei Wei in service style — customers order at a counter and then be served at tables — but the food will be Southern European with South American influences, including a lot of grilled fish and chicken.

I’ll let you know when an official opening date is determined.
