I ate at this Bufalo Grill, a Brazilian buffet styled rodizio grill, prior to eating at Chimarrao. In fact, I went to Chimarrao in the city center anticipating it would be like Bufalo Grill. It wasn't. I found Bufalo Grill to be much better.
Bufalo Grill is located in Parque das Nacoes, and within a short walk of the Tryp Oriente Hotel. With several restaurants in Parque das Nacoes, I stumbled into it and was able to tell that it featured buffet style dining. The location is very nice, being modern and with a high ceiling and floor to ceiling windows that look out on the Rio Tejo and some of the Expo 98 buildings.
Virtually every item I sampled, including all of the meat and poultry, was good. There was no doubt about that. Even a dessert ordered at the end of the meal was very good. The pricing scheme seemed simple. While the service was slightly less friendly than at Chimarrao, everything else, particularly the setting, was better at Bufalo Grill.
A meal here called for a snooze afterwards. It was convenient to be a short walking distance away from the Tryp Oriente Hotel ... and a comfortable bed. What they didn't offer was a wheelbarrow ride back to the hotel! read more
