| - This is a food review: We did the rodizio fire pit here. The restaurant was not very busy so they had all the diners in one small area so it felt kind of weird being in this island of activity in an otherwise empty room. The decor was pretty interesting to look at though. The servers here are all very well trained. Ask any question about the menu and they have a spiel ready to go. The cocktails sounded good, but no one else wanted to try one since they were so expensive, so I didn't get to enjoy since I didn't want to drink alone.
Like I said, we all did the rodizio, which I thought would be more popular, but it seemed like the vast majority of tables were ordering off the menu. There is no buffet here. Instead you get a gaucho platter that has a selection of salads, meats, cheese, beans, and corn. I actually found this to be the best part of the meal. The salads were really good. You can ask for more if you'd like, but I held back since I wanted to save room for meat. You're also supposed to get bread, but we never got bread. They seemed to be somewhat inconsistent on that. The table next to us got bread right after they ordered, we never got bread, and the table across from us got bread after they had finished eating and looked kind of upset about it. It appeared to be just normal bread though. It would have been nice if they offered the cheese bread. That table that got their bread at the end seemed kind of cursed the whole time we were there. They were there before us and also both ordered the rodizio, but the gauchos kept skipping them. I think it was because they barely touched their salad. They continued to get skipped even after we were getting meat. The guy sat their the whole time glaring, but never said anything. They should adopt the red/green system here. Our busser was especially good. She never let our drinks go empty for long.
This is my third trip to a Brazilian BBQ and I think I liked the meat here the most. The other places I have tried had more variety, but the quality didn't seem as good and also the seasoning they used wasn't as overpowering. That being said, I don't think I like Brazilian BBQ. It's just too much meat for me.
