    I never expected this to be some of the absolute best steak I’ve ever had. Just writing this review my fiancé and I wish we were back there sitting at our table! Servers were extremely nice and explained any questions we had very well.

    Our server, Patrick, was super. I've been to other Brazillion steakhouses, and the format us primarily buffet, salad bar and BBQ meats on skewers staff brings to yout table. The pricing was a bit better than other steakhouses. But the salad and buffet bars lacked variety of Barzilluon foods. Was more Americanized. most noticable was no variety of cheeses, limited fruit options. Meats were ok. Most were far too salty. I loved the staff attention to requests for rare, and well cuts. The staff was very good at accommodating customers needs and requests. In short, this restaurant is good for a rela r icely affordable, all you can eat standard american buffer and salad bar for the family with a few Brazilluon twists and representation, and a bit of style.

    It is traditional Brazilian style churrascaria. Come here hungry and you're sure to leave with the meat sweats.

    The server was cordial and clearly working hard with patrons. Very noisy to the point that it was hard to hear others at the table. The meat selection was excellent and very tasty, but they offered more medium to well-done. We had to ask for meat cooked rare several times. The buffet was extremely messy and did not appear to be attended too much other than filling items. More expensive than other Brazilian places I have gone to. Overall, good but not great.

    Oily, dirty and confusing! We will NEVER go back and were mislead by other reviewers (staff?). The confusing part is the pricing: by the plate (pounds) or at the table (sliced meat and salad bar). The waitress could barely explain this to us. The food is oily,oily,and oily! We could barely taste the difference between entrees. The rice was okay. Thank God for coconut cake and cappuccino which were great(that's the one star). The thing that freaked us out was the dirty glasses at the next table. We were in a sunny spot and could see the streaks and cloudiness of the "new table" settings!! Washed? I don't think so! UGH-if we could give no stars, we would. Don't go, not worth the $$$.

    4 of us had the rodizio, a few drinks, and dessert. The waitress, service, and food were great. My only complaint is that if you don't want the meat rodizio or salad bar, there aren't other menu options. I just wanted a steak with rice, feijoada, and a vegetable bc I didn't want to over eat... which I eventuality did in order to get my $$ worth on the rodizio. My other complaint is that the hot food serving station is next to a wall, so instead of having the option to serve yourself from 2 sides, you have to wait for people to move out of the way. The line is longer than I've seen at other rodizios.

    The food will never go wrong , great selection for meats . This location is a little small so you will be close to other guest . Service can be good or bad , depending on the night . The host I had tonight was completely unprofessional and seemed untrained , lacked hospitality . But her team definitely stepped up and made up for performance .

    Great experience but lines are long on the weekends . Also - the buffet style is nice but with everyone touching the same utensils to serve themselves it very unsanitary. Hand sanitizer was out when I went to use some . Other than that it was a great experience.

    The food was very excellent but the atmosphere felt a bit chaotic. None of the servers wore masks and one or two of them came right up into my face to speak. Made me nervous. The servers came around with the meat consistently but it took a while for someone to come around to get us started in the beginning and to bring our check at the end. We saw folks at other tables waiting for staff, as well. All in all it was good - we've been to other Brazilian steakhouses and the food here is better.
