7 PM on Saturday night definitely expect a wait. We made a reservation so we got sat faster, so definitely something to consider depending on when you are wanting to dine.
The service was amazing, they have a card system to let the people bringing around the meats know if you are wanting to continue to get more meat or not. They had many different varieties as well as different cuts. The meats were all very delicious, though a little fatty! I saw some people said that it was salty, I did not have that problem at all. You can let them know how medium/rare you want the meat, but I will say that they do tend to be more on the medium rare side. I love medium rare, so I had no issues. You do get access to the unlimited salad and sides bar. They have many options for sides including Mac n cheese, mashed potatoes, beans, rice, fried plantains, etc. the salad bar had many options as well, and there was also bread and butter available. Overall we left very full and satisfied!
Wanted to add that the service was excellent! They def went above and beyond.
Overall, It is a little pricy, so I prob would not come outside of a special occasion, but it was def worth it!

Decent food but hardly any flavor on any of it. I have been to 5 or so of these across the US and 2 overseas and this one was my least favorite so far.
The servers were nice and were at the table frequently. Usually bringing new stuff. Pineapple was amazing.
Service was really good

Went for Sunday brunch. Very nice inside, but on the smaller side. Very nice host at front. He was so friendly and wished us a good celebration. Only 5 meats offered at brunch. Most seemed to be Parmesan crusted. Restaurant was busy. Salad bar on smaller side. Will return but probably not on a Sunday.

VERY good dining experience. The atmosphere was relaxed upscale, if not romantic when we arrived prior to the dinner rush. (Reservations recommended) Servers were attentive, the food of good quality, and I give it 4/5 for Brazilian authenticity because it is a little bit Americanized but mostly there. All that was missing was the feijoada, farofa, & Portuguese! A+, definitely recommend.

Every piece of meat that y'all had was tough!! Y'all don't know how to cut meat at all!!! We wasn't offered much on meats!!! We wasn't impressed at all!! The buffet sucks!! The variety was very little it's not kid-friendly at all!! Very little to choose from!!! We spent $200!! Was there probably 30 min to 40 minutes.. we could have went somewhere better!! With way better food!! Any more options to eat on.. we drove over an hour to this place we will never ever ever ever ever ever ever come back here!!!!!! I would never recommend this place!!!😡😡😡😡💯💯
