I ate here for lunch twice and breakfast once when staying in Vegas across the street. I was with wife and kids and wanted quality food, nice setting, a bit away from casino smoke.
It's a very nice setting. Upscale interior, solid furniture, nice waiting area. Service was uniformly good if not great throughout stay. It's a nice upscale all, right on the strip, and most importantly, it was very reasonably priced compared to other VEGAS Strip eating options.
If this was in Henderson, I might give it 1/2 star off as Value would fall.
They have an excellent $6 Steak and Eggs breakfast. Steak is top sirloin, served to your desired temperature (like mine medium). Eggs were standard scrambled the way I ordered. Potatoes were fried "home fries".
For Steak and Eggs of this quality, would have paid twice this and been happy.
Now on to lunch. I had the meat "buffet" option both other times. Now, most importantly you have to understand this:
* Quality of meet for $20 buffet lunch is not going to be what you would get for a $40-50 dinner buffet at other Brazillian restaurants.
It's just not going to happen. Instead, you get very tasty sausage, rotisserie mini chicken pieces, bacon wrapped turkey chunks, and some slice top sirloin.
No premium meats.
But the meats they give you are tasty and filling. Plus, you get an excellent "salad bar" buffet. I'm not a huge buffet person, but it's a nice one.
Cheeses, olives, salads, soups, breads, etc. I thought the calamari salad was pretty decent, and loved the fresh mozzarella, olives, artichokes, heart of palm salad, and a few other dishes.
So say what you will about this restaurant, but I think it's a decent to very good value. I think the setting is very nice. The service is good. And the food is tasty and filling and not overly expensive.
I do think you could get very expensive for dinner or if you run up certain menu choices, but that's your choice, isn't it?
Just don't think you are going to be in a nice setting, right on the strip, and get the same meal you could get at a Fuego de Chao.
