We went around 2pm on a Saturday. Service here was really…read moregreat. The restaurant was relatively empty. We did the full experience. Any meats we requested came out fast. Interior was clean and beautiful. As always unlimited cheese bread was amazing. Would go again to this location. Room for improvement: I wish they would ask for our phone number for the fogo rewards. They also forgot to bring out the sides but once I brought it to their attention it was fixed.

So my sister graduated medical school in NJ and we were looking for a quick restaurant so that we…read morecan dine. The staff at the front were welcoming and courteous. Unfortunately, my overall experience was very disappointing due to poor service. Our server, a shorter male who I believe was named Ricardo, took our order. I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and yuca fries. After waiting 25 minutes, I asked a staff member serving steak to check on the order, and he agreed. After 45 minutes, I followed up again with another staff member, a woman with reddish hair in a ponytail, and asked her to check with the kitchen. After waiting over an hour with no update, when she passed back, I informed her that I no longer wanted the food, and she acknowledged my request. Throughout this entire time, our server never once checked in on us. When he finally came to the table, I confirmed that my order had been canceled, and he said yes. He then proceeded to tell us that cooking takes time and that we needed to be patient. I dine out regularly and understand reasonable wait times, but the lack of communication and follow-up was unacceptable. The comment made by our server felt dismissive and unprofessional, especially given the circumstances. Overall, this experience did not meet expectations, and I will likely just stick to New York in the future.

The steak was flavorful and cooked beautifully, the rice and beans were rich and comforting, and everything tasted fresh and homemade. What really stood out was the hospitality. The gentleman preparing and serving the food was incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely cared about the experience. Amazing service and delicious food -- definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to when I'm in Bound Brook.

My friend and ai travelled down to Bom Dia for Happy Hour, as advertised on their website. However,…read morewhen we got there, the waitress told us that they no longer did that. We were kinda disappointed. Luckily we also planned on having a full meal at the restaurant and did so. Another friend joined us. My friend and I both got the Mixto Especial Brasiliero as our main courses. It was huge! All the meats were delicious and the fries were amazing. I will say it was great! We also each got an empanada. I loved my chicken empanada and my friend enjoyed his beef one. The third member of our party had the 1/2 grilled chicken, 1/2 Brazilian chicken platter. He enjoyed his meal as well. I will say that the food at the restaurant was great. Just disappointed that the happy hour did not exist.

This was my first time having Brazilian food and I loved it! I'm gluten-free (celiac) and I was so…read moreexcited that EVERYTHING on the menu, including dessert, was GF! My only problem was that it was hard to make a decision on what to order because I had so many choices (being GF, I'm usually limited)! Not only was the food great, but the service was excellent and very friendly. Will definitely be going back!

I picked this place for my birthday and it was the first time we had ever been. Everything was not…read moreperfect, but I loved the food, decor, and our waiter Sebastian gave good recommendations on what to eat. He also was very sweet. The place had a great vibe and I loved that the copocabana lady was everywhere. Very cool! We had a late reservation at 8 on Saturday and we were definitely a little rushed at the end so I would recommend eating earlier. We probably would prefer a 7 reservation as the kitchen seems to close around 9 and cleanup begins while you are eating. The food was all gluten free and there were plenty of dairy free options. I thought the food was clean and delicious and I could tell the chef put a lot of effort into his cooking. I also felt good after I ate it which is not always the case for me. They take great care in picking ingredients and it shows through in the taste and flavors of their food. I liked every single thing I ate. I also took home a lot of leftovers! I liked the food just as much a day later. Absolutely delicious. The other little issue I had was they tack on a service fee/ gratuity of 20%. We have seen this on vacations but never in the states. I feel this makes some people confused and uncomfortable. We always tip at least 20% for good service. The forced service fee/gratuity is not something we personally are a fan of. I would definitely 100% go back for the food and my husband felt the same. If in the area, check this place out as you will enjoy.

Omg my bf and I came here for restaurant week and we've never left a place more stuffed. For…read morecontext, I eat fish and not meat, and our waiter was very helpful in pointing out that the chicken + fish combo would actually be cheaper than the restaurant week deal. The servers here are all super nice and the man with the fish/shrimp made sure to come around to our table frequently. The cold bar was extensive and had a wonderful variety. I really had to limit myself on what I'd got and you could have a full dinner based on the cold bar alone. The cheese bread is soooo good. As part of restaurant week, we got the yuca fries and plantains which were super yummy. My bf loved all of the meat he got - he was so happy and satisfied. The shrimp was really good as was the fried cheese. The salmon was cooked well but definitely needed the mango salsa for flavor. The pineapple was one of the best things here - you HAVE to get it. We were honestly too full for dessert but it came with the restaurant week deal so we got tres leches anyways. The tres leches was super moist and tasty. This place is an amazing bang for your buck and we're super excited to come back. It was a really fun vibe here on a Friday night!

We were in the area and decided to try something new , came across this place and went in to check it out , here is how it went : Upon entering we were greeted by Jonas and an AMAZINGGGGGGGG bartender named Will .

He goes out of his way to make sure everything is perfect , we sat at the bar and had some delicious appetizers seasoned to perfection . I'm am Brazilian and I have been to MANY Brazilian steakhouses but this one topped them all and the didn't even try the rodizio. The whole vibe just makes you want to stay as long as you can , the only issue with that is that you will probably weight 100lbs more by the time you leave haha !! Everything is just so good . Jonas was very attentive and always asking if we needed anything else . An absolute amazing experience , we will definitely go back to enjoy other selections .

After anticipating visiting here for quite some time, we planned a special birthday dinner and…read morecould not have been more disappointed. Simply put, our $600 dining experience was pathetic to say the least. So let's take it from the top..... Made a reservation a week beforehand and proceeded to be walked passed numerous available tables to be seated completely in the back of the restaurant by the kitchen door. Let's just say.. no windows, no atmosphere just a kitchen door swinging open and shut the entire meal and UNBEARABLE HEAT. It must've been 85 degrees where our table was and we could've been easily sat somewhere else to alleviate this issue but instead when we told the staff how uncomfortable it was they said they'd turn the AC down and made a joke about us having the meat sweats... This was not a laughing matter, be professional, you claim to be an upscale establishment. The service was comical. We've dined at plenty of Brazilian steakhouses before so we knew the routine but talk about being annoyed the entire meal. After being in our seats for no more than a minute we are bombarded by 2 or 3 servers at once with meat. How about a greeting and some drinks first, give us a second to get settled. My aggravation really started when we were served HOT WATER, not ice water, not room temperature water but hot water. We had to ask for glasses of ice but it melted in a few short minutes. Trying to make the best out of the situation we ordered a bottle of wine and sure enough the red wine was hot in temperature as well. Knowing we were fighting a losing battle with this heat we did our best to eat and made the effort to leave quickly. Somehow we went from being bombarded with servers to just sitting around hoping someone would come to our table to offer us another meat or anything at this point. Yes, our cards were all flipped to the green side. I even stuck it on my forehead at one point using all the sweat dripping down my face. In conclusion, what a terrible dining experience...by the end we walked out drenched in sweat after begging for the check. Not even a simple apology for anything. I could go on and on but I leave it at this, $600 well spent I guess. You should be ashamed of yourselves LeBlon Steakhouse, thank you for ruining my birthday dinner. Side note: Don't believe the hype like I did, the buffet was severely lacking in options and the food was sub par.

I enjoyed the contemporary design of the restaurant and the food was amazing. I had a dish that I normally don't make and don't see it in restaurants across the US - beef parmigiana. The meat was very tender, and the tomato sauce was well balanced without a lot of acidity, which I liked. It's a good size and you will probably take some home. Luis, the owner, is very proud of their vinyl equipment and says that the music selection of the DJs is very diverse and upbeat. This is a son and mother business and mom is in charge of the kitchen, menu design, produce purchase to keep everything fresh. I would definitely dine here again and I recommend it.

I did not expect to enjoy this restaurant that much! It's unfortunate that it's located far into…read moreNewark, but I'm so happy I was able to try it. They had a wide variety of food, all ranging from beef, pork, chicken, seafood, and some vegetarian options. They had an extensive wine menu, and my boyfriend joyfully enjoyed a glass of wine. I got the brazilian fried chicken, which was extremely flavorful, and i was surprised there wasn't any breading on the chicken as typical fried chicken does. I much preferred the no-breading style, which I think is the Brazilian way. I would have preferred a boneless dish, as there were quite a few pieces with bones, and it was pretty oily at the bottom of the dish. It came with two very large sides, and totaled around $25. 100% would recommend this dish, but I do think at a lower price point, this could make do with just one side, instead of two, as the main dish was quite large enough to fill me up. My favorite part of this meal was the garlic butter bread that they provide for free. It comes out extremely fresh with lots of chopped up garlic, which is my favorite part of garlic bread. It was a great way to start the dinner off. The service was great and the waiters were extremely attentive. They regularly checked up on how we felt about the food and filled up our drinks. The restaurant was pretty empty while we were dining, but the space was laid out very nicely and the decor was beautiful. Would come again if it wasn't so far!

Something that could be improved was: Sometimes, I didn't know what meat was coming to the table.

Some negatives were: Mashed potatoes came out a bit cold The server did not know a drink that was on THEIR website - but she asked quickly and the bartender made the drink. Overall, the experience was very good!

I even received a rose for the occasion! However, we waited 10 minutes before someone finally approached us and asked, 'Is anyone helping you? Are you okay with tap water?' I understand it was a busy Valentine's Day weekend, but I expected a proper greeting rather than just being asked about tap water. When she brought the water, she asked if it was our first time. We said yes, expecting a brief explanation of the restaurant's concept. Instead, she just said, 'Technically, the meats will come to you, and you can go to the market and get anything you want. That's our special for tonight, you can go ahead and head over to the marketplace.' We went to the 'marketplace,' and it was delicious! We tried several items, and everything was tasty and fresh. Salads. Cold cuts. Rice. Beans. Zero complaints there. Back at the table, the gauchos began bringing the meats--filet mignon, picanha, sausage, bacon-wrapped steak, chicken, and lamb. Everything was cooked to perfection. The service, however, stayed subpar. My mango caipirinha arrived five minutes later, but my husband's Coke never showed up. We waited all dinner for it and never received it. Our waitress only came back once because we flagged her down for water, and then again for the check. Even the tables around us were wondering where she was. This was extremely disappointing!!! Zero smiles or a nice tone from Her. The food was delicious (5 stars), but the service she provided was definitely 0 stars. I want to come back for the food, but the service is making me think twice. Mi esposo y yo vinimos a este steakhouse para la cena de San Valentín; era nuestra primera vez. Teníamos una reservación a las 9:00 PM y nos sentaron a las 9:03 PM. Incluso recibí una rosa por la ocasión. Sin embargo, esperamos 10 minutos hasta que alguien se acercó y nos preguntó: '¿Alguien los está atendiendo? ¿Está bien agua del grifo?'. Entiendo que era fin de semana de San Valentín, pero siento que debieron habernos saludado formalmente en lugar de solo preguntar por el agua. Cuando trajo el agua, preguntó si era nuestra primera vez. Dijimos que sí, esperando una breve explicación del restaurante. En cambio, ella solo dijo: 'Técnicamente, las carnes llegarán a su mesa y pueden ir a la barra y servirse lo que quieran. Ese es nuestro especial de hoy. Ok, pueden pasar al marketplace'. Fuimos al 'marketplace' y estaba delicioso. Probamos varias cosas y todo estaba muy rico y fresco; cero quejas sobre el buffet. De vuelta en la mesa, los meseros empezaron a traer las carnes: filet mignon, picanha, salchicha, carne con tocino, pollo y cordero. Todo estaba a la perfección. Sin embargo, el servicio dejó mucho que desear. Mi caipirinha de mango llegó a los cinco minutos, pero la Coca-Cola de mi esposo nunca llegó. La esperamos toda la cena y nunca la trajeron. La mesera solo regresó una vez porque la llamamos para pedir más agua y luego para la cuenta. Incluso en las mesas de al lado preguntaban dónde estaba ella. La comida estuvo deliciosa (5 estrellas), pero el servicio que ella brindó definitivamente fue de 0 estrellas. Quiero volver por la comida, pero el servicio me hace dudar.
