    On offer here is the standard Brazilian BBQ experience. The waiters bring you various skewers of…read moredifferent meats for as long as your card is turned to green. Need a break? Turn it to red. The building is lovely, architecturally at least. The interior decor wasn't so great. There's nothing particularly wrong with it, just nothing particularly right either. It's a great space which could have had a really nice Brazilian themed feel, but it's just got some square black tables and generic leather chairs partnered with inoffensive piped music. It could be any restaurant anywhere. The menu online looked really good buy I felt like it failed to live up to its potential. We visited on a Wednesday evening and it wasn't very busy, which perhaps didn't help. The buffet dishes would have been really good but they hadn't been refreshed, the things which should have been hot no longer were and some of the things which were meant to be cold were obviously flagging a little. Perhaps on a busy night this is better but for us it wasn't great, and as my girlfriend is vegetarian this was her entire meal. You could argue this isn't really a place for vegetarians, and I would agree. The real draw of Brazilian BBQ is the lure of endless varied meats and here is no exception. The meats were mostly pretty good, nicely cooked and well infused with various seasonings and marinades. A couple of chicken offerings were the exception to the rule, I don't know what they had been subjected to before arriving on my plate but they were hard enough to throw through the living room window of someone you don't like. Certainly more than a match for my dentistry. Full BBQ menu was £23, vegetarian option £11. We had a drink each and no dessert and spent just over £40. I left full but not feeling like it represented good value for money, nor particularly compelled to return.

The meat was good (although a few bits under-done), the salads not bad and the cocktails very well done - finally a barman who can make a decent caiprinha! - The only downside was the rice, which had stood for too long and was lacking garlic, and the lack of treats like Pão de Queijo. The service was excellent. Some of the waiting staff were clearly new, but very attentive and prompt. I'll certainly be going back - the management seem very keen to improve and I am sure they'll only get better.

    My sister asked me where I wanted to go for my birthday and I was excited too see that there is a…read moreBrazilian Rodizio in Peterborough. I reside in the states and have visited various Brazilian restaurants including Texas De Brazil - which if you visit America I highly recommend. I was sorely disappointed with Samba Brazil. The "salad bar" was almost nonexistent compared with the vast variety I have seen at other Brazilian places, and as for the four items on the hot plates, they were unappetizing and the rice was cold and hard. I had some on my plate with pork which was also luke warm at best. This doesn't surprise me as the food is located right by the front door where the cold air comes in! When we complained about this to the owner he tested the temperature and stated that it was 65 degrees. (Which has now been put on Facebook under my sisters review as 77 degrees, this is incorrect!) Even so, while this may have been true for the bottom of the pan, the top was cold and was inedible regardless. I might also add that at this time we had been in the restaurant for approximately 15 minutes served a £2.20 coke from the can, plated our "food" from the buffet and then told the meat would be another 5-10 minutes. I refused to let my sister pay £23.99 per person for this lacking and appalling spread when it doesn't justify its self, wish I had taken pictures. Fortunately we left and had a delicious meal elsewhere. As for the other "groups" it was 7:30 pm on a Saturday night, there was two other people on another table. While waiting outside for our taxi we noticed two additional people walk in, and five minutes walked back out. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant The owner as claimed we were after a free meal. This is laughable at best. We complained at the beginning of our meal after we waited for management to come to our table. He was rude and argumentative. We then, as we had already decided left this restaurant as the food we had seen thus far didn't leave much to be desired. If one was "after a free meal" they surely would complain at the end after eating their fill. This is a sorry attempt by the owner which I have seen him claim on other bad reviews. He has also claimed we hate half of ours plates. Again this is false. We did not eat but a couple of bites which left s bad taste in our mouths. I refuse to pay for something that is not editable. We left before the meat was served, because even though we had prebooked, and been in the place for 10-15 minutes at this point the meat was still going to be 5-10 minutes. Not that I have to justify myself but we left this restaurant and went to a local restaurant in Peterborough which has been around for 30+ years which was lovely. I don't foresee this for this restaurant. Sorry. As for the owners claims of our reviews being fake reviews. I don't see how a customers experience and then posting about it is FAKE. Take the bad review and do better! Your food, service and attitude is poor. Best of luck!

The enthusiastic staff attended us immediately upon arrival and led us to our table. They explained their offers, a 2 course set menu with a drink for £17 or 3 course £20, in addition to an all day happy hour celebrating their 25th Birthday ;) Their food and cocktail menu's were extensive, with individual sections detailing vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options. The food and cocktails were delicious and portions generous. Will definitely be returning to this fab little find! :)

We almost didn't find Las Iguanas but I'm glad we did because it was perfect. It's a good idea to get there before 7.30 as that is when their Happy Hour 2-for-1 cocktails offer ends. We both enjoyed a Bellini which the barman kindly lit up with candles (it was my birthday after all). My wife liked the idea of some guacamole so we shared that for starters. The waitress, Sophie, was very attentive, so when we moved onto the main course and my wife realised she didn't like burritos, Sophie didn't hesitate to change it for something else. In the end we both enjoyed the Bahia Moqueca, a light tasting Brazilian curry. The real treat that made me a fan however, wasn't the Latin music, fabulous decor or friendly staff but the Churros we had for dessert. I would return again for these alone. These doughnut like fingers taste amazing with the creamy De Leche dip or the dark chocolate. A dream come true. A Latin restaurant nearby that we'll both return to.
