    Picanha a la Orlando.
    Julianna S.

    We came to enjoy some delicious Brazilian food this Saturday early afternoon. We were seated right away. There are lots of tables and space in the restaurant. Our waitress took our drink orders and appetizers quickly. As they were brought to our table we ordered our main course. Food was served hot and fairly quickly. The picanha was absolutely delicious. 5 generous slices. We ordered family style which came with rice, beans, farofa, sautéed collard greens and French fries. Price for food was very reasonable. Now the drinks I found a bit over priced. My passion fruit juice was $8. And it was good but nothing out of this world. But the service is always amazing and food very flavorful. I normally get dessert but this time did not.

    LOVED the feel of Boteco do Mnalo. Super authentic! They cooked their Picanha steak just right. The texture was tender, and the flavor stood out. Simple seasoning let the meat shine. A solid choice if you want a well-prepared steak.

    Highly recommend checking out Boteca do Manolo restaurant. Everything tastes homemade, service is speedy, the ambianceis filled with life and emotions from watching fútbol games in real time. Our server was Marcelle, delightful woman that has a smile that lights up the room. She answered all my questions and found the answer to one she didn't know. This American girl asked lots of questions. Posting more as I travel the menu with the smorgasbord family style foods. We started with Cod Fritters that made me wonder if it was actually crab. It was so finely flaked it was melt in the mouth good. I tried it with the lengendary hot suace malagueta that will give you a run for your money to gulp water down quickly. The next appetizer were pasteles made of ground beef, chicken and a third of shredded beef. Delectable because they have a surprise of melted cream cheese that melds the flavors of the meat and cheese into a memorable bite of goodness White rice and black beans. The staple of any true Latin meal. The right balance of salt and seasonings in the black beans that make you hungry for more. Vinagreti is the salsa that is the definition of fresh. Finely chopped tomatoes, green peppers, onions, chives and a splash of vinegar that provides acidity and ummpffff The Picanha (Top Sirloin) is tender and juicy as it appears to be sautéd in butter and a hint of sauce which makes this meat satiates your pallet. Even when it cools down it is like eating the best burger you had. Yucca, one of my favorite potato substitutes is sooooo yummy. Try it with the vinagreta for an extra amount of mouth watering flavor. Couve aka kale is finely sliced (like spaghetti) and sautéd with garlic and chives which makes a flavorful side dish that adds another layer of intensity that is not too strong. Wait for it. Trying the Flan next. Can't. Wait. It doesn't disappoint. You will be thrilled Sending a shout out to Rodrigo de Silva who took me there to experience Brazil on US turf.

    So we had a Brazilian uber driver take us to our hotel and we asked him where he would eat Brazilian food, and this was the recommendation. This place was the gem of our trip to Orlando. Vey close to the Disney parks and lots of other fun spots around it. They were playing the Soccer games and it was packed, but we barely waited for a table. Our waiter was amazing!!!! He catered to our every need. If you like spicy a must try is their chili oil. I wish they bottled and sold it, I was ready to buy it on the spot. Everything I ate was fantastic, but the shrimp empanadas blew me out of the water. Full bar and good for small or large parties. Huge portions so be ready for that. It seems to also be served family style so plenty of sharing. A MUST-TRY!!!!

    Bacalhau com risoto de camarão ! Muito bom ( só é chato ficar tirando as espinhas ) hehe

    You must go! They have a menu with several options! There is NO reason to say you don't like it. My favorite so far is the Camarão ao Molho de Catupiry but a picanha is always good as well.

    They were playing the soccer game that was fun and lively then live music I was having so much fun

    Traditional Brazilian food, done well, in a nice place with table service and a full bar. The emphasis is on meats of all kinds, and the VERY extensive menu does a good job of picturing everything. The prices seem high at first, but even the half portion is more than enough for two people. There is also a lunch menu. Hard surfaces, so it can get noisy.

    It's a really nice place to eat with a family. Their portions are for 4 people. We like to go there when we want something to bring home and eat later. The empanadas (pastéis) are really good. Staff are always friendly and nice. The place has a nice environment and some days they bring people to sing there, and sometimes is too loud. We like the picanha, parmigiana (ask without ham, I don't know why they put it).

    Food is great but customer beware of break ins out on the parking lot. This looks like a bad area at the end of International drive and the parking lot around the back of the restaurante is unmonitored. My car was broken into and there were other cars with broken glasses as well. Judging by the SEVERAL signs "do not leave your belongings inside the car", taped on every wall inside the restaurant, this is a common problem that no one is really doing anything about. Service was great and food was really good but we will not be back.

    Everything was fantastic! Service and the food exceeded mine and my Brazilian girlfriend's expectations. Don't forget to grab the Caipirinha! Music and vibe was awesome.

    I feel that as a Brazilian I have to come forward and give this place the review it deserves. My man is Puerto Rican, and we have been to this place together at least 5 times already (and will keep coming back). The price justifies how much food you will get (which is a lot) and the quality... checks kiss. Everything is well seasoned! The drinks are 9/10 are on point! I don't know who the bartender was yesterday, but all the drinks he made were lowkey terrible but this is a rare occurrence! And the waiter and manager, God bless them, were kind enough to take it off our check. The place looks beautiful, and the bathroom is always clean. I wish I had more photos to share. I want to give a special s/o to a waiter, Danilo, every time we show up he comes over to greet us and always makes sure we're straight we the drinks just the way we like it. He is an excellent server.

    I called ahead about a little over a week ago to make a dinner reservation for a party of 22. The…read morestaff was great, from making the reservation to reconfirming the morning of the dinner. When I arrived with some of my dinner guests, we still had a wait before we were escorted to a private room. We encountered an issue with one of the servers and I had to request to speak with a manager. Rachel came over and we spoke about the unfortunate situation we were having. Rachel apologized and worked to get us someone else to take care of us. After that, we settled in and enjoyed the rest of our dinner. I ordered the Beef Empanadas, the Tequila Sunburn Glazed Salmon (comes with Mashed Sweet Potato and Green Beans) and a Dragon Fruit Margarita. The Dragon Fruit Margarita was delicious. I didn't want to get full before receiving my food so I took sips while we waited. It was hard not drinking it all too quickly. It was good. It was served in a glass with a sugar coated rim and lime wedge. The Beef Empanadas are an all-time favorite and never disappoints. I couldn't eat all my food so I packaged the rest to go. I was presented with a glass of ice cream topped with whipped cream and cherries. A candle perfectly placed in the ice cream was lit and waiting for me to make a birthday wish and blow out the flame. The night was not over yet. After dinner, we went outside and sat to listen to the live steel pan music. It was a wonderful way to end the evening. As the cool air embraced us so did the melodic tunes of the steel pan music. Thank you Rachel for salvaging the evening and remedying our unfortunate experience with one of the service staff. Your response and actions saved the evening and help earned this four star rating.

A two-story restaurant…read morelocated on the City Walk outside the parks with a variety of seating types, you will find the restaurant's light and open atmosphere is quite welcoming. There is even a large fishbowl at one of the host stands with a Cowfish swimming about a giant hamburger. The menu offers so many choices, I found it hard to decide. Ultimately, I landed on the All American Bacon Double Cheeseburgooshi - a combination of a bacon double cheeseburger in sushi form. Hubby got a Bento Box that included a slider, sushi roll, edamame and more. I was a little worried that I wouldn't like my dish. It seemed a bit out there but once it arrived, I was beyond pleasantly surprised and loved every bite! Hubby also loved his bento box and we left quite full. They also offer a myriad of unique and fun drinks including one in a fish shaped glass with boba pearls and a Bloody Mary with, basically, a whole meal on top! This was a 10/10 for us - next time we are in Orlando, we will make time to return. Note that reservations are a must!

First off, the concept alone is wild. Instead of choosing between sushi or burgers, you get both. And somehow it actually works. The "Burgushi" idea sounds like it shouldn't... but it does. The bento box is probably the move if you can't decide. It gives you a little bit of everything and is perfect after a long park day when you're starving but also indecisive. We did this through the Ride and Dine package, which made it super convenient. Having a reserved meal time built into a Universal day just hits differently. It's a nice break from the chaos of the parks, and CityWalk has such a fun energy at night. The value feels worth it when you factor in the portion sizes and the overall experience. Food wise, the burgers are solid, juicy, and definitely not an afterthought, and the sushi is surprisingly fresh for a theme park spot. The menu is huge and creative, with everything from classic rolls to over the top fusion options, plus shakes and drinks if you're feeling it. The vibe is very "Universal." Colorful, slightly over the top, and a little loud, but it works. Think quirky décor, bright lights, and a mix of tourists, families, and people decompressing after a park day. Overall, not necessarily a fine dining sushi spot, but that's not what you come here for. You come for the experience, the variety, and the fact that you can eat a burger and sushi in the same bite if you really want to. Perfect for a fun Universal night! Was great for our needs to eat some dinner before hitting the park to throw beads!
