Our story

Two chimneys,
one long table.

Brasas isn't big, and that's the point. The bar runs along one wall, two charcoal chimneys throw heat across the room, and reviewers keep reaching for the same word: cozy. They mean the kind of place where the servers smile through a Saturday rush and a birthday cake arrives in dry ice and sparklers.

The food reads straight off the coast and out of the highlands. Ceviche cured the second you order it, anticuchos and lomo off the charcoal, chaufa stacked in a hot bowl. As one regular put it, Peruvian cuisine this good is rare and hard to find this far out on Long Island. On weekends, a live band plays by the bar.

“Authentic Peruvian food and a pleasant vibe. The two chimneys make you feel very cozy and warm.”
