We arrived an hour early and was able to enter quickly into the consulate. After a very long wait, we were the last to be interviewed. The consular officer was very friendly and good humored. She asked the typical questions and then let us know that we needed to submit a translated document (tradução juramentada) for approval. Everything was cleared a month later.
The only criticism I have is that they keep an instructional video on repeat nonstop in the waiting room - when you're waiting for hours, it can be a bit maddening.
Overall this is one of the best consulates I've had to deal with.
