Biggest Meal You've Ever Had
DESCRIPTION: I've only been to this place once, but I loved it and have never been so full. I've heard luke warm reviews from others, so maybe I should give it another chance before praising it too highly. Essentially this is a decent buffet with seafood and salads, then the meat carvers slice off as much of tasty, marinated, high quality meats as you'd like. Various steak, rabbit, pork, chicken, etc. They even brought out a whole pig at the end!

Meat lovers paradise
DESCRIPTION: They serve pretty much every kind of BBQ meat you can imagine. Feel free to ask for what you want as they don't always bring around all the options unless you request them. The first time we ate here all of the prepared foods on the "salad bar" where inedibly salty. No such problem the second time so I guess it was a fluke.

Great deal for the carnivorous
DESCRIPTION: A very authentic churrasqueria with a wonderful selection of fresh meats. Skip a meal before you go... you will need all the room in your stomach. Although it is supposed to be a casual restaurant, the ambiance and service are first class.

Very Authentic
DESCRIPTION: Definitely the place to go if you're an expatriate Brazilian, or if you are planning a trip down to Brazil and want to have some idea about the food down there. Make sure you get the "picanha" (top sirloin, but cut differently that what's customary in the US).

A Quality All-You-Can-Eat Buffet
DESCRIPTION: Its wasn t cheap - $27.95 per person for the only dinner choice - an all-you-can-eat buffet - but they did NOT soak you for the extras: $1.75 for bottomless beverages, $4 for dessert, was reasonable. Prices are lower for lunch and children. In the end, I've many times paid a lot more for a lot less. It s a unique dining experience, and everything we tried was good. They have a decent salad bar with many uncommon Brazilian items added. But the main feature is the meats. A dozen or so servers constantly roam through the dining area with skewers of BBQ'ed meats. A marker on your table tells them if you want more or need a rest. If the marker is green, you'll have a plateful in no time - varieties of beef, lamb, pork, rabbit, duck, chicken, sausages, etc. that just keep coming. If it can be grilled, they probably have it. You can also ask the waiter to send a particular meat server your way. I suspect some of the oddball things come out rather infrequently - like chicken hearts. The salad bar was pretty complete, and included soups, green salads, various other types of salads, and a few fruits and veggies - more than we could sample. In one case - clams and mussels in coconut sauce - I found mostly shells, but I'm sure a new tray was on the way had I waited. We all loved the fried banana. I was very impressed by the sausage, of all things. The Oxtail soup was great. Though stuffed, we couldn't resist sharing a piece of chocolate cake for dessert and it was every bit as good as it looked - delicious. It is not a place to go when you are not real hungry. Surprisingly, the average patron was not an obese glutton, and the salad bar did not look like the aftermath of a pig stampede. This is upper-class all-you-can-eat. My only [small] complaint is that most of the meats seem to share a common seasoning. I would have enjoyed more variation. Service was excellent. I thought it was a little noisy while waiting, but once I sat down, I didn't notice. I will be returning
