We decided to try Eskina after hearing good things, but unfortunately our experience didn't live up to the reviews. The food itself had good flavor, but it arrived only lukewarm. The bigger issue was the service. Once our food was dropped off, no one came back to check on us, ask if we needed anything, or refill drinks. We ended up feeling pretty much forgotten. At the end, we were also told that a 20% tip was the standard. I don't mind tipping well for good service, but I don't think it should be expected when the service wasn't there. We spent around $100 for two entrées, drinks, and a dessert. For that price, I expected much better service. This isn't a fine dining restaurant, so the overall value just didn't feel right. I really wanted to like this place because the atmosphere is nice and the menu has some interesting Brazilian dishes, but between the cold food, lack of attention from the staff, and the expectation of a 20% tip, I left disappointed. I hope they improve the service because the food has potential. read more

Our large party of 7 wanted to eat here on a Saturday. The service was friendly , the food as incredible, and the vibes were amazing! They play live music on Saturday so we were lucky to enjoy our food and the entertainment. We ordered the shared plate of steak with all sides and some people also got the buffet . I got a passion fruit juice and it was so delicious! read more

Eskina - Brazilian Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

Restaurant is a lively bright place with a tv screen showing the beautiful sites of Brazil. That was the best thing I can say about Sunday night dinner here I ordered the Picanha medium snd it was so tough and chewy that I left 70% of it. Anyone who knows me knows I never leave steak behind The beans were on the salty side. Garlic bread was good and thankfully I ordered it to get something in my stomach My wife ordered a kids portion filet mignon. Her steak was just a tough and chewy as my Picanha . It came with a small side of beans and plate of rice that could have fed three tables Maybe it was just a bad night, however being in Orlando does a restaurant really need to be good ? They most likely will never see a customer again We did let our server know as well as the manager know however no discount twas taken for the poor cut of meat read more

Eskina - Picanha - Brazilian Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

We went here for the Brazil World Cup game. Thank goodness we had reservations because the place was packed with a sea of yellow and green! The food was delicious! The steak was cooked perfectly and the side of grilled pineapple was a perfect sweet to have on the menu. The cheese empanadas are not stuffed full of cheese. It is only a thin layer coating the inside. For me it was perfect since I prefer lighter on the cheese but others may be disappointed. The Moscow mule was strong so one was enough for me. This was an amazing place to watch the game because they have a HUGE TV screen that covers the entire front wall area. read more

Eskina - Our favorite appetizer Pork belly - Brazilian Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

Worst service I've experienced in a long time. Our server struggled with the basics from the start: no water, forgotten drink orders, and zero communication. After we waited over an hour for our food, he blamed the long delay on us, claiming it was because we ordered our steaks well-done. When we pointed out that we'd actually ordered medium-rare, he called us liars and pulled out his order terminal to prove us wrong. The terminal, of course, confirmed we were right. Seconds later, our food was brought out completely cold. To top it off, he never apologized or made any attempt to make things right. Hostile service, massive delays, and cold food. Save your money and eat elsewhere. read more

Its really nice inside, and friendly staff but the food is awful. We got the picanha ans the fish plate. The picanha was so tough it was hard to cut through and extremely chewy and hardly any meat i think my husband got a total of 4 bites out of it and the rest was all fat. My fish plate was tasteless, ive never had tasteless fish before. The rice and beans on both our plates was 100% old and lukewarm at the most. we got pastel for appetizer ( that was okay) and passionfruit drink which was great. Im Brasilian and i lnow Brasilian food, this was from it. read more

The food here is very authentic from what I remember - 4.5 / 5 The caipirinhas are made with fresh fruit and were the highlight of my dinner. The feijoada buffet is good as well, multiple different varieties to choose from and the live Brazilian music was awesome with everyone doing there singing along! read more

Delicious authentic Brazilian food. Our server Geordana was so sweet. Lovely decor with a huge LED screen with images of Brazil. Nice vibe. read more

Cheap quality steak, no flavor, cook my steak wrong temperature. Not recommended. We will not be back

Delicious food, friendly staff (even though it was a major holiday). Brazilian sausage and sirloin was The Best!

For someone that's been around Brazilian cuisine my whole life -- Eskina has been a little taste of home in Orlando. The highlight: a little play area for the kids full bar (need another caipirinha!) Feijoada buffet on weekends live music If you're feeling like exploring your taste buds or just need a little taste of home, Eskina is a gem! read more

Staff and service was outstanding, however the food was very disappointing, it's not good, There was nothing fresh on the plate and it was very bland. For a plate that was $69, I feel the price point should have been about $19. Just look at the processed cheese they are using. Staff and service is what keep this place open. read more

When you make a reservation for Christmas Eve, and the restaurant accepts it, it is horrid that they closed 30 minutes before our scheduled time. Can't comment on their food, but I've already got a really bad taste in my mouth for this place. Bah humbug! read more

Really good food and great service. We came in on Friday night, they have live music at one end of the dining room, we chose to sit at the far end, can still enjoy the music but far enough so we can talk to each other The waiter was very nice, helpful and attentive. Based on his recomendations we got the Picanha Na Chapa (under classicos, shareables section of menu). Large portion and plenty of food for 3 people. Perfectly cooked and tender meat, comes with sides rice, potatoes, beans, salad. We also got some appetizers: the Porcas De Coxinhas (chickens balls) was very good, this comes with a mayo based dipping sauce. The Pastel De Queijo (cheese empanada) I was not a fan of, would prefer meat, also for only cheese as filling this is overpriced at $15. Very limited parking in front of the restaurant, but there is a plenty of parking behind the building. read more

Eskina - Heineken Beer - Brazilian Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

This place is one of my absolute favorites! The atmosphere is super pleasant -- cozy and vibrant at the same time. I come from Miami, but it's a must for me to stop here every time. The food is absolutely delicious, and the service is top-notch. Highly recommend it! Thank you Ana read more

Rodrigo the bartender was amazing!!! Best service ever!! The restaurant food is also amazing

I've been here 4 times already, and every time it's a great time, food is good, and the service is pretty good, the servers help out each other. Oh and most importantly really cold beer, just how us Brazilians like it. On Saturday's it is pretty busy because they have a live band playing and can get super noisy. If you're not into loud music, come on another day and enjoy their food, which has a ton of options. Also, since it's super busy on Saturday's you may have to wait for an hour for a table, because people are enjoying all you can eat Feijoada and the music, so they won't really won't be going anywhere for a while. In all I like it there and will keep going. read more

Eskina - All you can eat Feijoada - Brazilian Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

My girlfriend and I were so thrilled to try authentic Brazilian cuisine in Florida, since last we visited we tried another establishment that wasn't up to par. The ambiance was beautiful and we love when we have an opportunity to practice speaking Portuguese. However, the reason for 1 star was our food came out at different times, such as appetizers were spread out...one children's meal came out first with 2 apps. Then 1 entree came out and another children's meal. We waited a long time for the last entree and children's meal to come out. Both orders were incorrect which made us wait even longer, while others were eating due to their food getting cold while waiting...one of the children's meals came with cheese on the burgers when we requested no cheese. The entree was suppose to be medium via steak and it was well done. My girlfriend had such a horrible experience that she chose to not tip due to the lack of service, checking in and apologizing for the inconvenience. Then, I asked for a bag for my take home boxes but the waitstaff was annoyed that they didn't get tipped and the bag never arrived while I waited with my niece for over 5 mins or so. It was apparent that training is needed via waitstaff and hospitality in order for this establishment to receive 5 stars, which is very, very doable!!! I'm hoping this review changes their aspect and hospitality and provide their customers with a well-rounded experience. We truly felt alienated and felt there was a bad taste in our mouths. Luckily, I'm a kind soul and tipped but would of not as well to be honest if I knew she was going that route. Hope your experience is most pleasant than ours (2 adults with 3 children ages 5, 6, and 7. read more

There was kids running around the entire restaurant. Music is so loud you can barely hear the people sitting next to you at your table. Our server also gave our kids orders to the wrong table and didn't even bother checking in on us until we asked and then they realized their mistake. The food took over 45 mins to prepare. Would definitely not recommend. Service : 2 out of 10 Atmosphere : 0 out of 10 Food : 4 out of 10 read more

Fraldinha price is quite high for the price we paid. Parmigiana has a fair price and size . The entry and main dishes took quite a long time to be served to our table while the restaurant was empty. The waiter was not paying attention to our order and forgot to bring us water which we manage to order on arrival. After a long day in the park It was a good experience with Brazilian local food in Orlando Area but the music is loud and kids are running around the tables. read more

Food is amazing, skip the nasty buffet near by, trust me. You must try the cheese bites and beef lasagna. Best lasagna I've ever had. I'm a foodie and this place gets all 5 starts. To top it off service was great and Alex is amazing at recommending based on your taste buds! read more

This is the best place to eat and chill in Kissimmee and Orlando area. Brazilian food at highest quality, servers with the best smile, and drinks cold as the day is hot in Florida. Marcos Garrido is the best manager in action I've seen! Always ready to make you feel better. Gaby Ortiz is the best server and made us feel at ease with all the questions we had. Definitely a must if you around and want to have a good time. read more

As far as the food goes, it tasted well and was delicious. However, when it comes to service this restaurant fell way short. It seemed like our server, -Maria- was in no rush to provide basic customer service to our table. She was borderline rude, obnoxious, and was not attentive to our party of three. To the point where she didn't even bother circling back to our table to check up on us or ask us if we needed anything. We had to keep asking other servers for help, and ask them for things WHEN they actually came around... She didn't bother asking the table for further drinks, or waters... This is a Brazilian restaurant and we noticed that other parties who were Brazilian were receiving expeditious service and getting taken care of. Whilst, we were not... I don't know if being Hispanic has anything to do with that but that's how we felt as we were observing the ambiance, as well as the contrast between different servers and their table tops. read more
