I just tried this restaurant this week and I absolutely loved the food and the people who work there were super nice!!!!!

We've eaten here a few times before, when visiting family in the area and never had an issue. Today, my wife and I went for lunch. We knew the procedure - take a plastic plate, select what you want, have it weighed then go and eat.

The guy at the counter jotted down the figure from the scale; my plate showed as 11.72 but I don't know if that was an actual weight in ounces or a dollar amount. I was about to ask him but my wife asked for two cups of water and neither he nor a girl working in the back area seemed to understand what we wanted.
How are people allowed into the country who can't speak or understand basic English??

It took about two minutes to finally get them to comprehend and by that time I realized there was no point in asking questions about the scale figure. One thing that has always bothered me is that they don't give you a copy of the figure and when you go to pay after eating, how do they know which figure refers to your plate. They seem to charge randomly if you don't get the all you can eat buffet.

Unfortunately, although some of the food is recognizable to non-Brazillians, the fact that nothing is labelled makes it difficult to know what you are actually getting. Today, this was a bit of a disaster as both my wife and I selected what we thought was well cooked fried plantains. It turned out to be pieces of pork with a very thick layer of skin and fat. Yep, I know, it was our fault for not being more careful.

Then I saw what definitely appeared to be some sort of grayish looking mushrooms, not unlike the type you would see in an Asian meal. When I bit into one, I discovered that it was what seemed to be chicken hearts. They went in the trash along with the pork fat. If you do decide to eat here, bear in mind that fat and bones etc., contribute to your plate's weight.

Overall, they have a decent selection of food but the quality does tend to vary and as others have already said, their prices have increased quite a bit. I don't know if they provide the same dishes each day but it would be very helpful if the food was labelled in English, Spanish as well as Portuguese. Either way, we won't be rushing back.

If you're looking for a cozy and inviting spot to enjoy some great food and catch a soccer game, this place is a fantastic find. The atmosphere is really pleasant, making it a comfortable place to relax. And the food? Absolutely delicious. I particularly enjoyed the meat dishes, and the feijoada was a standout – rich, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. It's definitely a winning combination for a chill meal and some fútibol!

Excellent! Very good Brazilian food. More important, you can fill your plate with as much as you want and pay for it weight wise. Nothing to be underestimated in an area where a visit to a restaurant might lead to disappointments in terms of the size of the meal.

Used to be all you can eat, now all their locations are 10.75 per lb per plate, I wouldn't call that buffet all you can eat anymore.
