Bossa Nova Brazilian Cuisine

Born from a passion for authentic Brazilian flavors, Bossa Nova brings the rich culinary traditions of Brazil to the heart of Los Angeles. Founded by Chef Francisco, who grew up cooking alongside his grandparents in Bahia, and co-founder Aurelio, a former army officer turned restauranteur, Bossa Nova blends Brazilian soul with Californian energy. From our humble beginnings in the 90s to becoming a beloved local favorite, we're known for our handcrafted dishes, warm hospitality, and vibrant atmosphere.
