Brasilian restaurant just over the road from the Bristol Royal Infirmary. The menu mixes Brasilian and Mediterranean influences to produce good tasting dishes. There's Brahma beer to enjoy out on the terrace at the back overlooking the city centre rooftops. On Monday nights there's live bossa nova & música popular brasileira. Ótimo.

DJ Gilles Peterson is a fan of the place. On a recent visit to Bristol after returning from a tour in Brasil he wrote: "...ironically ate in a brazilian restaurant called bocanova and served by a guy who was at zero zero in rio exactly a week ago (apparently there are only 17 people in the world!)- big up daniel and great food by the way - known to be rainer truby's fave restaurant down west."
