CASUAL DINING
|
| When we don't want to dress up, when the budget is a bit busted, when we're hanging out with the gang, these are the restaurants we choose. There's considerable variation among them in price, food style and atmosphere, but all cultivate a relaxed feeling and, in most cases, there's no need for reservations or anything fancier than T-shirt and slippers. |

It's Hale'iwa, dude, so naturally this isn't your average sushi bar. It's owned by a Brazilian, Alessia Ucelli, with a Brazilian chef, Renato Silva, and the menu takes a South American turn every once in a while, with ceviche alongside cucumber-salmon roll. The open-air ambience also offers a flavor of grass-roofed huts on Ipanema Beach; a covered deck includes conventional tables and also pillows-on-floor seating. Surf videos play, and there's often live music.
