Tapizn in El Segundo

Found this place after dropping friends off at LAX. Id heard there was a great Brazilian place near the airport and thought this might be it. The food was good, but when compared to the cost, I can think of a bunch of other restaurants that I would rather visit. Also, we asked for non-alcoholic drink options, but were ultimately served an alcohol based drink.

I came to Tapizôn for an event where I got to try their food for free, but I will be back because the people, the food, the music, the location, and the overall atmosphere were awesome!The items I was able to try:CHEESY DICE 4.5/5This was one of my favorites. I was expecting more of a cheese flavor, but that didn’t detract from the dish. They have a chewy inside with crunchy outside. Imagine fried tapioca and that’s what this is like. The real star of the show is the sweet and spicy açaí sauce; it is fantastic with this! I’ve never had anything like it.PUMPKIN SOUP VEGANA 3.5/5I am a huge pumpkin soup fan, so I was really looking forward to this dish. Tapizôn’s version is vegan and thus lacks the heaviness from traditional recipes which include lots of cream. It had a ginger forward taste which I really enjoyed. My only comment is that in my opinion, it needed more salt.GARLIC FRIED CHICKEN 3/5These had a very mild garlic flavor; it wasn’t in your face. Most of the pieces had a great crunch, but a few were soggy. The lemon added a good acidity and I loved the additional flavor of the pickled onions. The dipping sauce provided was togarashi mayo, although I didn’t taste a lot of togarashi.AHI TUNA CRUDO 5/5This was another favorite. This was so flavorful and the fish was so fresh. Yum! And I loved the tapioca paper chips.MOQUECA 4.5/5This was a very mild fish which is how I like ‘em! I loved the peppers in it which contrasted well with the coconut cream. My only comment is that this also seemed to be under salted.BRAZILIAN BRIGADIERO 3.5/5This dessert was surprising due to its consistency; I expected it to be a spoonful of chocolate pudding but man was it thick! It took time to eat… which meant more time to savor the flavor.ORIGINAL CAIPIRINHA 4.5/5I enjoyed this cocktail and would get it again. It’s both light and refreshing. Mine was very lime forward in flavor. I would like to try their passion fruit flavored cocktail next time!PRIMA PAVE - Rosé dolce 5/5I wish I asked for a second glass of this!I love that this is a nonalcoholic alternative for people who like wine.In addition to the wonderful food, original caipirinha cocktail, and non-alcoholic wine- all of which were fantastic, we also had the good fortune to try different flavors of a Brazilian energy drink brand called Soda Bossa.SODA BOSSA 5/5I tried the passion fruit, guayana berry, and dragon fruit Pitaya flavors. My favorite was the passion fruit, because I’m obsessed with the sweet and sour flavor of that fruit. My second favorite was the guayana berry, followed by my third, the dragon fruit Pitaya. However, all of them were good and definitely something I would buy instead of traditional/common energy drinks. Soda Bossa is a much healthier and tastier option.I had a wonderful time, ate some delicious food, and now know a new place to go to. I definitely recommend you give this place a try and bring friends so you can share several dishes. Your experience, of course, will be different because I was here for an event, but I hope it will be equally as wonderful. And I can recommend them if you’re interested in hosting an event there because they did a wonderful job.

The Cheese Dice was super crispy and delicious and the acai sauce blow my mind, super taste but the Ceviche and the Pao de Queijo sliders was not that good, the Ceviche was salty and the Pao de Queijo was hard to chew.

Absolutely LOVE Tapizôns food, drinks and ambiance.The menu is a blend of traditional Brazilian flavors and ingredients with a level of creativity that keeps every dish interesting! They have a bar and outdoor patio but honestly every table at Tapizôn is good!Mandatory: passion fruit caipirinha, dadinho appetizer that comes with crazy good açai spicy sauce and the pao de queijo sliders.Muito bom! Eu recomendo!Very good! I recommend!

Really enjoyed this restaurant in my home town. Ive never had Brazilian food and it was fantastic!! The atmosphere here is very tropical and relaxing. I suggest a bowl with chicken or shrimp, although they also have brisket! Lovely bar as well. Ill definitely be back when Im in town.

This was a great food and dining experience. I came here today to celebrate a friends birthday, upon the recommendation of another friend. The food was excellent and the service was phenomenal. We ordered a lot of food, and everything was just delicious. The tapioca tortilla for the taco may look a little different, but thats ok. It tasted chewy and yummy, added texture to each meal. Their brazilian cheese bread (Pao de quiejo) with the avocado butter was superb! And the yucca fries and guava ketchup! We could not get enough of these. We definitely want to come back and try more of their delicious menu.There is plenty of street parking and really great staff.

Really loved our brunch experience here. Tapizôn is a new entry to the downtown El Segundo dining scene, and it is a welcome complement to the neighborhood. The food was excellent. Fresh with a nice presentation (see pics). And overall we really loved the chill Brazilian vibe of Tapizôn.

We had a truly memorable dinner here while on a recent trip to the LA area. The atmosphere is one of a kind! I loved all of the plants and indoor/outdoor patio setting. So much thought and attention to detail with the decor and menu. Everything we had was delicious. But my favorites were the Cheesy Dice and Yucca Sticks!

Super cool ambience, friendly staff. Owners renovated the space well and the food was great! Will have to come back to try the things I was eyeing but sadly only could pick one, chose the brisket bowl. Tasty! Pao de quest was on point and the Avocado butter was interesting and paired well. My son got the chicken sliders and loved them. Will bring my wife back for a date night. Our waiter Hunter was awesome!
