You will definitely leave full! We chose this place because of the great reviews and it did not disappoint. We went on a Monday night and it was packed. The kind of great service where your water glass is always refilled. Constant attention. You don't need to dress up for this place. We went on a whim so I thought I'd be underdressed, but when we got there folks were in t-shirts. Everyone is comfortable, kids and babies, just eating and drinking and being merry.

Similar to Fogo De Chao, this is an all you can eat Brazilian BBQ. Their salad bar was extensive with many choices ranging from charcuterie to deviled eggs. Personally, I enjoyed their picanha the most and got many cuts of this meat. The other meats weren’t bad but picanha was my favorite by far. It was a bit pricey ($60ish) per person, so make sure to come hungry. They also brought us out a celebratory flan as I was celebrating my birthday, which was very nice.

My family and I had dinner Friday evening, the restaurant was busy however it didn’t take away from the superior service we received. The food was excellent and the service was top tier. We spoke with a gentleman that asked if we were celebrating a special occasion, we shared my daughter was returning to college out of state the following day, he inquired where she would be traveling to and she told him Connecticut , she goes to Yale University, when our dessert was delivered to our table her dessert said congratulations. So sweet of him to acknowledge her, we definitely will be returning soon.

Phenomenal service, high-class, great experience. Admittedly, I had hoped for a bit more variety in the types of meat being served, but they do also take requests to ensure customer satisfaction. Be aware that kids are no longer free at age 2, and the adult meals are pricey. Most diners will find it to be a very worthwhile endeavor overall.
