Brazilian Steakhouse

Bakersfield

About the restaurant

Churrasco has three centuries of tradition in the vast plains of the southernmost region of Brazil. Gauchos would prepare a feast for their family and friends by slow roasting various cuts of meat from each of their herd over an open flame pit. They offered to each family and friend, the best of the Gaucho’s herd, where they carved the meats at each table in a show of skill and gift giving.

Located in Bakersfield’s Southwest neighborhood, Flame & Fire Brazilian Steakhouse is a modern experience into Brazil’s traditional churrascaria, featuring the rodizio style of carved meats table side, along with our exquisite market table. This is the third restaurant to Flame & Fire Brazilian Steakhouse, with two other locations in Roseville and Folsom California. Established in Roseville in 2014, we are proud to share with you the culture of great food and warm hospitality.

BOM APETITE!

We asked the bartender to turn down the music and he did. Gracias! The food was good but my fish was a bit overcooked. Not burnt but not moist and flakey. Everything else was good.

The service was good, very attentive, had a few charges that we suppose to have come with the meal but then were charged as add ons...they need to change their wording...as expensive as restaurants are, it's nice for them to say, "would you like to add on" and know you will pay extra instead of saying " it comes with" The food tasted great and the ambiance was good, they were fast and very in sync to get table served and cleaned

We heard from an acquaintance that Vatos Tacos opened up a location in the southwest so we decided to try it out. The food and service was good. Just be aware, it is an extremely loud dining and bar area. So as long as you are aware, or like the bar atmosphere you wont be disappointed with the food or service. Also, recommend making reservations. Even though there were people waiting when we walked in, we were seated right away once we checked on.
