    Salad Bar
    Janet M.

    Brazil Express Grill in Schaumburg is hands down one of our favorite places to eat, always my husbands first choice. From the moment you walk in, the staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. There's plenty of parking, which makes it easy and stress-free to visit, and the restaurant itself is always spotless and well kept including the restrooms. One thing that really stands out for our family is how autism-friendly and understanding the staff are. We have an autistic son, and the team here has always been patient, kind, and very aware of our needs. That level of understanding means so much to families like ours and makes dining out a truly enjoyable experience. The food is absolutely delicious. The steak is incredible juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. It honestly rivals some of the best steakhouses we've been to and no I'm not afraid to admit that. The salad bar has tons of fresh options, so there is something for everyone, and everything is well stocked and presented beautifully. Now then sangria is fantastic. It's refreshing, light, and perfectly balanced, not overly strong, which actually makes it even more enjoyable to sip with a meal. Between the welcoming atmosphere, clean space, amazing food, and thoughtful staff, this place is a gem. We will absolutely continue coming back again and again. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great meal and a restaurant that truly makes guests feel comfortable and valued. You won't regret coming!

    Everything here tasted very fresh and authentic. Service was excellent and friendly. The coconut caipirinha was really good. The meat was tender and salted well. Highly recommend if you're seeking an authentic Brazilian steakhouse.

    This place overall is a 4.5 but I'll round it to a 5 on here. We came here for the $40 summer special. The regular unlimited menu is about $50 Mon-Thurs and $52 Fri-Sun. That's per adult. It was easy to find the restaurant with tons of parking. We had a reservation but we didn't really need it since it wasn't busy on a Saturday night. Just a note, the $40 summer special includes 8 meats, whereas the regular full price includes 11. The salad bar was unlimited, it's not as huge as the corporate restaurants but they do have some excellent quality items. The croquettes were dry and tough. However, I've enjoyed the mushrooms in wine sauce, tilapia milanese, beef stroganoff, lasagna, and salad. Lettuce was fresh. The side dishes were all very good. Fried plantains were sweet and delicious. Mashed potatoes were creamy and not watery. Cheese bread practically melts in your mouth. I could eat a whole basket of those. Steaks were cooked especially when medium rare. The chicken drumstick and chicken breast wrapped in bacon were tasty. The meat cuts easily and it's not bland. Brazilian sausage is always a highlight. Parmesan pork was good. The Brazilian flan was extra but it was superb. Flan is always worth getting. Service was great. If you wanted a specific meat, they would get it for you as well as any sides you want. Our drinks were always refilled. This is still a good bargain even if it's the regular price. Not as crowded as Texas de Brazil, Fogo, etc. I'm not a fan of crowds.

    The various meats served we're all cooked superbly. Come with an empty stomach. The salad bar and sides were all extremely tasty. A fully stocked bar provides any alcoholic beverage you want. Dessert menu is deep and I recommend the Tres Leches. Service was extremely quick and prompt. Everything arrived at the right time. The servers are top notch. Our group of 10 dined on a Friday night and the ambiance was enhanced by solo guitar player. The restaurant is located in a strip mall off of Roselle Rd and plenty of parking is available. Highly recommended

    The service is excellent! We order off the à la Carte menu as we are not an "all you can eat" type. The blackened tilapia is a go to along with the Brazilian, black bean stew is our go to. Everything we have tried has been tasty!

    I can't say enough great things about this restaurant! We arrived after being told we had to wait 2 hours at Texas de Brazil. The owner, Mario, is so kind and so accommodating. The restaurant was packed and busy but he found us a table right away and had us seated within 5 minutes. Service was excellent, the server was on top of refills and bringing us more cheese bread and fried Bananas. Their salad bar had a good assortment of appetizers and salad ingredients. Their rice and black beans were by far my favorite! The amount of meats that were circulating were impeccable. Delicious, hot and the steaks were at the perfect temperatures. The restaurant is big enough for larger parties of people and also a great ambiance for families or date night. Definitely recommend making a reservation for larger parties. We had a great experience and will definitely be back!

    This is such a hidden gem! I've been here for lunch before and it's not the usual AYCE set up for lunchtime. It's a la carte and you order off the menu. The downside is that it's not AYCE and there's no buffet but the upside is that you get to order your favorite cut which was the picanha for me. You're also able to order your preferred side dishes and I had the rice and beans with a big bowl of chimichurri sauce. For dinner, it's AYCE which is the usual Brazilian steakhouse style. You help yourself to the salad bar and one of the reasons why I really like this place is because you get hot food items to choose from as well as soup. Don't make the rookie mistake of filling up on the salad bar/buffet because there are meats galore! As soon as you put that green card up, they will bombard you with the assortment of meats in various cuts. The garlic beef and the picanha are my top choices. It's also nice to get the grilled pineapple in the circulation. Between the salad bar/soup and meats, they also give you bananas, mashed potatoes and the cheesy bread as needed. I swear we had at least 5 baskets of the bread. They're so good! There's an up-charge if you go during the weekend so if you're looking for a cost-effective brazilian schmorgasborg, then try going during the week.

    Week One of our Random World Culinary Adventure. We have a bowl of about 50 different cuisine and…read morefood types, and once a week (schedule and budget permitting) we draw one and go there. The first week was Peruvian. Having been here years ago (not sure if it was the same name) I already knew at the jump that this was our destination. This is an unassuming place in a strip mall, off Lake street. Upon entering you are greeted with, frankly, a beautiful bar and restaurant. The Alpacas are a great touch. We started off with some yucca cheese balls, tropical ceviche and bruschetta. We are still raving about the bruschetta a few hours later. The cheese balls were also amazing. Ceviche was fantastic, but we could have used a few additional plantains. For our meals we had a Arroz Con Pato (duck), Chaufa (a wok), and a Fettuccine à la Diabla Con Bife (steak and pasta). The best of the 3 was the Fettuccine (aka steak and fettuccine). The steak was cooked perfect, the entire thing had amazing flavor. The Arroz Con Pato looked nothing like the menu. It was very good, albeit with the duck being more on the dry side. Flavorwise though, very good. The wok, same deal - looked nothing like the menu. However the person eating it was pleased and that's all i care about. For dessert we had a passion fruit mango cheesecake which was delicious but so rich, not sure I've ever said that. Benefit to it being rich was that I brought it home to eat at my leisure. The spicy churro cake was also a hit. Service was great, it was lunchtime and one woman running both front and back of house but she did great. We loved it, and will return.

    Great service and cute ambience! We ordered the ceviche clásico and the lomo saltado, which were…read moredelicious and similar to what I had in Peru. There aren't many Peruvian places in the Chicagoland area but this is better than the one in the city. We also got the passion fruit cheesecake and that was amazing.
