   We tried this restaurant for the first time on Valentine’s Day. We had experienced a Brazilian steakhouse before, but this one was absolutely the BEST! Everything we tried was cooked to perfection. The service was also excellent, even on such a busy night. We definitely will go back!

   We were there for lunch and both had only the salad bar so I can't comment on the main attraction, being the meat. The salad bar was okay with a fair amount of choice and the food was fine but not exceptional. Just not remotely worth $36 per person in our view. Very nice place with excellent service. Maybe would return to try the other offerings, but would not return for the salad bar.

   We had very high expectations for our dinner. Unfortunately, we were VERY DISAPPOINTED!! It’s a beautiful restaurant. Cocktails were very good. After choosing a bottle of wine, we were told they didn’t have it. The steaks were delivered in huge chunks instead of delicious slices from the traditional sword from grilling. The beef was mediocre at best. Best thing was grilled pineapple. We will not be returning.

    We Celebrated my mother in laws 77th BIRTHDAY!! The Staff was SO Incredibly Gracious and Kind to Her. EXCEPTIONAL Service and Courtesy throughout our stay. Of Course the Meats were Plentiful and Perfectly prepared. The Salad and Extras bar was Beautifully stocked and Displayed. The Waiter and Waitress stopped in constantly to check in and provide refreshed beverages. The Manager, passed by twice during our brief stay , once to Welcome us and Wish us Well on the Celebration. Secondly, to make sure all things were prepared to our Satisfaction and to offer my Mother in Law Her Any Wish regarding desert. Unbeknownst to him that she has a Fair Size Sweet Tooth. A Phenomenal Experience Overall. Many Thanks Rr !!
