Now, I normally Yelp before I go to a new place, but this place was HIGHLY recommended by some friends of mine, so I went out on blind faith. Previous reviews aside, my experience was NOTHING like theirs! The place was packed (on a Friday night, Christmas Eve) and the ambiance was very nice!
Our servers couldn't have had better table-side manners and the meat was good! Everything I had was hot, fresh, juicy and cooked to heaven! Roasted meat on a stick brings out the primal nature in me and I would consider myself a well-to-do Southern (California) Belle! I rolled up my sleeves and duked it out with the best of them! I even tried a piece of alligator, and yes, it tastes like chicken (which now begs the question: WHAT EXACTLY DOES CHICKEN TASTE LIKE IF EVERY F'N THING TASTES LIKE IT?!). Lastly, what I most appreciated was the rotisserie pineapple....*drool* covered in butter, cinnamon and sugary deliciousness. According to the servers, it's served last so the acids from the fruit help with the digestion of the heavy meats. Whatever, it was F'N YUMMY!!
Honestly, I've been to better Brazilian BBQ spots, but none of them are in the state (Um, Fago de Chao is on my wish list thank-you-very-much). It was a bit on the pricey side, but considering it was all-you-can-nom meat, meat, and more meat (and a salad bar blah, blah, blah), I feel it was worth it. I'll definitely have to do some more recon on this place and see how it goes.
