| - The boyfriend and I ate here for Easter, since I had given up red meat and was dying for a fix. Of course, we had to go rodizio-style, and I wanted to at least experience the dinner offerings. So, we ended up getting a 2:15pm reservation for this place. DEFINITELY worth the wait, since we got to choose from the full 16 types of meat (instead of 6). Yes, the price was $36/person, but it was worth every penny.
Even though they gave us some broccoli, fried bananas, mashed potatoes, and cheese bread, I barely ate any of thee carbs, since I had to save room for the MEAT.
I did make sure to save room for the salad bar, since it included salmon with a passion fruit sauce, salad, peppers, portobello mushrooms, marinated mushrooms, caprese salad, meats/cheeses, beef carpaccio, chicken salad, seafood salad, etc. I ate just a few small selections from the salad bar, since I was all about the meat.
OMG. I was in heaven. I tried anything and everything that was steak. The Picahna (Top Sirloin) and Garlic Picahna were to die for. So juicy and delicious. They even had a different type of garlic steak, which was also good. I also tried the Prime Rib, Lamb, and Flank Steak, but I mostly filled up on the Picahna and Garlic Picahna. I'll admit, though, that the Flank Steak and Prime Rib were delicious, but my only objective was to eat Picahna.
They also had garlic bread that was almost immediately snatched up after the server came out from the kitchen. It tasted like it was garlic sourdough bread. Whatever it was, delicious.
I didn't really want to bother eating the Pineapple and Ham, Ribs, Pork, Chicken, or Sausage, so I really can't comment on those. By the time that the Salmon was brought out, I was just too stuffed. Next time.
I also saved some room for dessert, since I saw a couple of ladies pushing around a dessert cart (even though it was a little extra, it was worth it). It was all over for me once I saw that they had tiramisu (among other things)...I just felt like they were taunting me with their dessert selection, since it seemed that they were pushing the cart around in front of me while I was enjoying my meat. I did, however, have the tiramisu, and it was worth the wait/saved space.
The wait staff was great, although we did quite a bit of waiting before they refilled my water and before they brought out the check. They did come by quite a few times to ask if we wanted more wine, though.
I'll admit that when they came around, the staff was quite attentive.
We also received a $20 gift card to be used toward dinner.
I would've probably given them 5 stars, except for the few gripes that I had about the service.
I can't wait to come back.
