Customer Reviews
This Brazilian buffet boasts a large selection of different kinds of dishes. There's even a grilling section where there are different types of barbecued meat that's perfectly cooked and sliced up in front for you. The buffet is by the pound and it's so easy to stack that plate as everything looks extremely delicious and is!!! There's steak, chicken, and pork that was very tender, oxtail that I liked, and different vegetable and meat dishes, and a salad bar, also beautiful tasty desserts and a huge selection of beverages. You pay first before you eat it and no worries about the bill. You do have to stand in line with your meal to pay though, which it's a bit hard to get the drink and juggle a plate of food. So plan accordingly. I really enjoyed their delicious buffet and I highly recommend it. Definitely a must try and I promise, you will be full when you leave.
The fresh selection of food is substantial and the hospitality is so nice. Very welcoming ambience.
🪳 🤮 DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! My sister recommended this place bc her and her family love it and been going there for years! So I tired it and the first time it was pretty good, but last night we went and this time the Food was cold/stale and surprisingly only two/3 options for meat! Chicken wings chicken breast wrapped in bacon or steak. Once we made out plates and paid we sat to eat there at the restaurant and as we were about to start eating a cockroach came running across the table walked over a plate of food and then circled the table and ended up in the napkin holder! Naturally me and my lil girl screamed and my partner began to gather our things to leave I went to the cashier and explained what happened and she wasn’t surprised and offered to let us make new plates!!!! I said no I don’t want a new plate that disgusting and we are no longer even hungry at this point so please just give us back our money she went back and forth with us about making a plate to go etc and we had to keep insisting to get our money back she finally spoke to someone in the back and came back and gave us our money back and continued serving food and letting people sit to eat didn’t even bother cleaning our table aside from taking the plates!!!!
Been coming here for years but recently they changed their steak from top sirloin cap to chuck. Very hard and chewy, even when cooked med rare. Wont be coming back anymore.
The food is delicious but the system they have to charge is a little sketchy I got charge $52 for two plates of food when I asked the cashier about how many pounds and how much was by pound she ignored me and acted like she was mad because I was asking they need to be more clear with their scale system
