   Sticky nasty tables. Servers never came back until I called them to return my napkins. $200 Not worth $20 of food. Quality has really gone done.

   No one can ever leave there hungry...it is a deliciously overwhelming amount of food beautifully presented with something to suit everyone's taste. The staff is very accommodating and friendly. Excellent value for the money and a fun way to enjoy a great meal with family and/or friends. We will return soon.

   Even though we had made reservations, my family and I still faced a 28-minute wait to be seated. The menu prices were not updated. The price of the churrasco on the menu they give it to us was $ 54, but we were charged $ 71 per person. In the meat rotation, they only brought us chicken meat for a while until I complained to the service. The fact that I was at Brazilian churrasca restaurant I'm very disappointed with the churrasco. Additionally, the people sitting next to us were obnoxious and made a lot of noise that was completely out of character. I understand that the restaurant staff has no control over it, but it disturbs those who are there to have a peaceful dinner.

   The waiters and waitresses were very attentive but the quality of the meat for an authentic Brazilian was sub par. The picanha and rib eye had zero taste. I don’t think it is worth the money. Either find a regular good steakhouse or head to the ironbound in Newark, NJ for the real deal.

   Great service and food! My wife and I enjoyed a great variety of really tasty dishes. Everything was fresh and delicious! From the salad bar to the side dishes brought to the table. (Rodizio style). Bar menu looks great too and fair priced. The restaurant ambience was really inviting too. Highly recommend!

    Awful - it’s been a long time since I’ve had such a bad dining experience. The food was passable at best, but the service and experience were terrible. There were very long periods between people coming to us, we would have ordered more drinks but were never able to because no one asked. They are suppose to come around with meat. The meat selection on the menu was inaccurate - only half of the options were offered to us. They have a red/green system so the servers know when to come to you (or not) and that was never honored. As noted above, hardly anyone approached us. They also offer you a tiny pineapple drink and they don’t tell you that they are going to charge you for it! And it’s an expensive drink! For what we paid for vs what we got in terms of both quality and quantity - it was bad value, almost like a rip off. What was suppose to be a nice night out was really ruined by this restaurant. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant.
