| - I'm extremely tempted to use Shari M.'s rating system here and rate this place the ultimate "SLAP MY ASS AND CALL ME SALLY!!" however I have a feeling it would be somehow inappropriate. Instead I'm going to confirm a warning Devan R. gave me when I told him I'd be coming here:
Do not even think about driving or doing any sort of physical activity once you finish at this place! Not only was my reaction time extremely slow, I had extreme difficulty making the move to check my blind spots while attempting to drive back home. I'm serious, it's dangerous.
Now on to the review:
Copacabana, to put it bluntly, is an all you can steak joint but oh man is it good. Live music, intimate setting even though the place is rather large, amazing service and great steaks. I don't even really know what else to say about this place.
When we were being seated, our server notified us of a "salad / appetizer" bar in the back but we opted to reserve any space available in our stomach for the great meat to come. The way it works is Gaucho's come around with the different items and if you want it, they carve off a piece and move on. I'm fairly certain in the 2+ hours we were there, we tried nearly everything on the menu (or close to it anyways - and minus the few items that are restricted to certain times of the year) and I loved each and every item.
Everything was cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and seasoned perfectly (one item was far too salty for me but still amazingly tasty). I might have made a mistake to want to fill every gap and crevice left in my stomach with beer and it definitely aided in me gaining ~5 pounds when I weighed myself the next morning.
Regardless it was completely worth it, the price is perfect for the amount and quality of food your getting and the service was just as good. I'll definitely be coming back here again, once I manage to recover.
