Espetus Churrascaria - San FranciscoToo pricey.Too pricey! It'd also be good to offer some fish. My husband and I are not meat eater at all. We went to please our son.5/19/2013 12:00:00 AMThis is one of our favoriteThis is one of our favorite places! Stay hungry and then unleash :-) The service is incredible. Check out the San Mateo location as well.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMMeat lover's dreamThe food is amazing and you HAVE to go hungry because there is sooo much of it! The only downside is that they tend to overbook the reservations and we had to wait in a very crowded bar that had barely a place to stand in where you weren't in the way of the waiters. We waited 20 min. just to get a drink at the bar; we got a table at 8:55 for or 8:30 reservation. On the other hand, it was the best table in the restaurant. Overall, I say they made it up to us in the end with great food and great service.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMReally good timeI so enjoyed Espetus. All the meats were good but the filet mignon sent me to heaven. I loved their Brazilian national cocktail, much like a mojito, with cane sugar at the end of the drink. My only regret is not having the chance to taste the skewered prawns. We were already on our dessert course, which was great as well--a chocolate bomb cake with ice cream. I was full for 2 days afterwards. Best advice is to fast for a while before going to Espetus.5/13/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and great serviceI went there on a Holiday weekend, they took great care of my small group. Food speaks for itself, awesome! Servers constantly come by to take care of all your needs.5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat experience awesome choicesGreat experience awesome choices of meat not even sure if I tried them all but was full and pleased
Little pricey5/11/2013 12:00:00 AMThis was my first time tryingThis was my first time trying Brazilian food and everything was amazing! It was my boyfriend's birthday and he loves all types of meat. The meat was tender and flavorful and there was so many to choose from. I will definitely come back. Oh, the service was fantastic and on point!5/6/2013 12:00:00 AMAlways a wonderful eveningI have been going to this restaurant for 5 years, and every time I go it is just as good or better then before. I recommend this place to all people visiting, I have staff dinners there, and always find time in between special occasions to just have a wonderful dinning experience.
Over the years I have come to know several of the staff there and I so enjoy their award winning service and the attention they pay to all the details.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMWhat more can I say?The food is amazing. The buffet is to die for as is the meat. The little plate of bread, polenta, and fried bananas are brilliant. Be prepared to eat until you die!!!5/1/2013 12:00:00 AMExcellentExcellent service, delicious food. This restaurant is super.

Special kudos to the people that served us. Meat selection and quality was very good. Salad bar selection was equally good: the black beans with pork and paella dishes were memorable.4/27/2013 12:00:00 AMCome hungry or staty home.Come hungry or staty home. Came by for lunch on Friday and left two hours later ready for a nap. The nine selections offered on the lunch menu were a nice and tasty variety. The cordial servers kept the food coming for as long as we wanted and to satisfy our appetites. How could we say no to someone with a smile, huge knife and never ending skewers of grilled meat? No dinner that night...4/26/2013 12:00:00 AMWorth every pennyGreat food and nice ambient. It might cost you but it's worth it.4/25/2013 12:00:00 AMIt was goodThe food is very good. They offer all kinds of meats. You fill up fast! Salad bar is super good! It's really pricey though- just a warning! Definitely save a trip there for a really special event. It was 5 of us FOR LUNCH and the total came out to over $300 (including tip). We did each get a drink (which aren't included) and we didn't get dessert (not included).
Also, we went for my dad's birthday (I had told them through opentable that it was for his bday, but they never said or did anything.4/21/2013 12:00:00 AM2nd time dinning here and2nd time dinning here and i absolutely love this place ! if you are not into meat then i wouldn't advise coming here BUT otherwise this place rocks , the salad bar is awesome and the meat selections are perfect (especially the beef ribs !)4/20/2013 12:00:00 AMweekend in San Franone of the very few Brazillian steak houses in San Francisco they do pretty good job with all of their meats. I like the grilled pineapple and shrimp additions to the otherwise red meat agenda. My only complaint is that they don't offer a variation on temperature as do other Brazillian steak houses, you get it as they choose to serve it.4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMThe dining experience at EspetusThe dining experience at Espetus Churrascaria was very good. The air condition was on so it was a bit cold but the waitress promptly had it turned off when asked. Excellent dining experience once I got warmer.4/10/2013 12:00:00 AMCarnivores paradise.

The meat is delicious, varied, and plentiful - great for a special occasion.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMI was in absolute heaven here!I was in absolute heaven here! I came as a way to break my veganism after 6 months. The quality of the meat was so delicious that I felt the animal's were done justice. It was literally the best meal I have ever had. You must try the Pudim, it is to die for! The Pão de Queijo was also the best I've had, not too salty, and a perfect balance of cheese.
Service was a little slow at first, but after we asked them to pick it up we were getting bombarded with options.
This place is a must!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMAwesome restaurant!Excellent food! Great service, quick and friendly.
