Great service, albeit slow, but the place was packed. There were six of us who all had the full Rodizio. This was 1.5 weeks ago on a Friday night. We had reservations. Quick in and seated. Very nice servers. The salad bar had a lot of options and was very good. The meat selection was decent though we weren't offered any of the more exotic meats. The garlic beef and sweet and spicy (not really) chicken were the best. We were there 1.5 to 2 hours (slow service) and didn't feel it was worth the amount of money for the 1 inch bits of meat. Seriously tiny pieces. We've been to other Brazilian style restaurants and we've never been served such small pieces.

This was the most amazing experience I have ever had. All you can eat, and our server Ben was so charming!!! Will definitely be coming back.

Beautiful location and yummy food. However service is lacking for such a large and priced restaurant. There aren't enough waiters to refill water and checkup with table. Then there aren't as many selections of meat as I'm used to at the sister store in Salt Lake. The Salt Lake location blows its sister out of the water. But seating arrangements in a timely fashion even with reservation is an common issue between both locations

This place was incredible. Soooo much amazing food. Great service! Can’t wait to eat here again! PS The cheesecake was amazing!

To start, the ambiance was great. If you get the "unlimited meats" package, you get this little block that you can flip to tell the servers whether or not you want meat. If it's on, a new meat is coming around every 3 minutes, sometimes sooner. It's pretty exciting. There's a salad and sides bar, very nice touch/palette cleanser between your meats. The deserts are amazing too. But be warned, these are not included in the "unlimited" package and the waiters won't always mention it. I think they were six dollars each, but if I came again I would still order them. Great way to end the meal.

Went with our whole family and it was great. The meat was hot and tasty, and the staff was great. The only complaint is the Alfredo from the salad bar was not good at all, but other than that literally a 10/10 restaurant for us.

The service was great but I feel like they need to season their meats better. The beef meats tended to taste the same they were more room temperature than hot. I have eaten at other Brazilian steak houses and found them to have better meat. The salad bar was impressive and the mashed potatoes were good! We went with a group of 10 and there were 4 teens in our group they ordered the chocolate caked with ice cream and ended up not eating it because the v Cake was frozen. I think they are on yo something here but they need to step up their game! Season the meat serve it hot and you should be good!

Okay, so there's no way around this, except to compare this place against Tucanos... To be honest, I feel as if this place is a few steps down. The dessert menu is almost identical, you put both of the locations have a pretty good dessert menu. The salad bar though, or appetizer bar I guess, is LACKING a lot, compared to Tucanos. (I like the sushi Tucanos has, and although these folks have fried bananas, it ain't very good.) I liked their fish, as well as their ham... I think they're ham was my favorite thing that I tried. Their chicken, I feel was overcooked, both boneless and wings. But, I think the customer service was pretty awesome, and I really appreciate how friendly everybody was. I loved how because I checked in on Yelp, that I get 2 free desserts and 2 free drinks. I ordered the, "GUARANÁ ANTARTICA" which I did NOT like, but their "RODIZIO LIMEADE" was amazing! I had their Creme Brulee, but I think it was overcooked on top... I then ordered the, "TORTA BRIGADEIRO" and ask them that they put it in a box to go... Because I was planning on eating it later that night When they brought the "TORTA BRIGADEIRO" to me though, it was on a plate, and it looked like a big mess, when I tried transferring it to it to go box... It still tasted great, but I wish they would have listened. All in all, I'm sure the place is decent, but I feel as if there are better options.
Haven't been in over 10 yrs thought we'd give it another go....remembered why we don't go. Made a reservation and we arrived 10 min early for said reservation and were still made to wait for almost 30 min past our reservation time. So poor scheduling there. Then as we were getting up to get seated a family walking out had a kid who looked green in the face and the dad just said "don't get the chicken" as he walked by. We should have just left then....but we didn't and thus it was an adventure in to uncooked and horribly unseasoned meats. It was just not good, we kept thinking we will give it the benefit of the doubt and tried all we could stand but I gave up after the 4th meat came around wildly undercooked with absolutely no seasoning. My ridiculously overpriced meal that was edible consisted of a slice of glazed ham, frisée salad, and some of the glazed pineapple that was all that was edible. The staff was friendly but inattentive we never got water refills, finally asked and she never came back. It was just a hot mess. They have 3 teenagers at the front who look like they were frazzled beyond their training to deal with customers and it was only 7:00 Heaven help how the rest of the evening must have gone for them. Also by far the most professional looking folks of the night were not the front desk. Definitely could use a cleaning up there. Basically it is just a sad copy of Tucanos that hasn't even remotely hit the mark on execution. I'm sure they must bank off people coming to this location forgetting tucanos moved in to town further and aren't bothered to go drive there thinking "oh I'll stay it's Brazilian grill how different can it be?!" Oh how sad they are when they leave. Salt guys!! just a little salt or freaking anything!! it was so bad ya'll just don't. If you're hankering for Brazilian grill just make a reservation a week out at tucanos or be ok with waiting an hour for a table don't cop out for this as a back up....not worth it.

We've been fans of the Brazilian restaurant but this was our first visit at the new Provo location. We were very happy with the quality of the meats and the salad bar. The recommendation is to get small samples of the meats and try to remember which one is your favorite for a second serving. Don't forget to check out the Brazilian cheese bread bites as they are always worth two or more. I enjoy the meats but always finish with the roasted pineapple!!! My wife loved the limeade and I had my usual Guaraná Antarctica. We are going back soon.

This is a very fun and delicious experience! The meats (and the impeccable pineapple) are grilled and brought out on spits, where you can have a portion sliced off for you. It's comparable to Tucanos in that sense.The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, and very attentive.The food itself is great with several different options. As a person who doesn't find cheesy options most favorable, their parmesan steak and pork were phenomenal. And, again, the pineapple was impeccable.I recommend this for any event.

This is the second Brazilian steakhouse I've tried in the Provo/ Orem area. While it was significantly better than Toucanos, it still left a lot to be desired. The mashed potatoes and rice were lukewarm. Almost all of the meat was overcooked. They have lots of options which is amazing, but I think I would prefer fewer options that were cooked/ seasoned properly. Service staff was friendly, so no complaints there. Brooke, Emily, and Adam were mostly attentive and very pleasant to be around. At $30 a plate, I expect more from the kitchen.

The different flavors of limeade just really taste like lime and they decided my tip amount for me
