Rio Picanha Steakhouse offers a variety of meats at their buffet and great lunch prices, especially for seniors. Families enjoy the consistent meat service and delicious desserts like homemade flan, along with attentive staff. The restaurant serves Brazilian BBQ cuisine, featuring dishes like beef, pork, sheep, and chicken. The ‘Picaña’ is a highlight, referring to the top part of beef used in churrasco. While the salad bar may not have as many options as other Brazilian restaurants, the amazing meat quality compensates. The three-colored sticks on the table add a fun element, allowing customers to signal when they want more meat or need a break. Located in West Covina, east of LA, the restaurant has a seating capacity of 250. The cost of unlimited BBQ dishes is $50 per person, with side dishes like salad and rice included for free, while alcohol and beverages are separate. Tax and tip are added when paying, and the prices may have risen slightly. Kid-friendliness is also a plus, as infants are allowed. The restaurant has the potential to excel further with some updates and an expanded menu, although the restroom could be nicer. Customers appreciate the delicious food and attentive service, making it a place worth returning to. Recent reviews mention a rich variety of more than ten kinds of barbecued meats, including beef, mutton, pork, chicken, sausages, and offal, served directly to the table. Servers are friendly and attentive, often remembering preferences after a few rounds, enhancing the dining experience. Many guests praise the wide selection of hot and cold foods, with standout dishes like chicken stroganoff and lamb with mint jelly. The weekday lunch special is affordable, with some customers even receiving senior discounts without asking. Overall, the restaurant offers a satisfying meal with great service and tasty options, making it a popular choice for families and meat lovers.
