Its a bit more casual, decor is lighter. I think it may be slightly cheaper (comparing lunch menus). The buffet area has less things compared to Fazenda but still get a nice selection. If you have not been to a Brazillian BBQ before, basically they come round with different meats on sticks and they carve a slice for you at the table. For lunch, there were 7 different types of meat (I think) which included a couple different beef cuts, sausage, gammon and lamb. Previous visits to Fazenda, my favourite has been the gammon. However, my last visit is didn't meet the very high expectation from that first time having it. Its still good but not "incredible". Actually, if I am honest, at Picanha it seemed to be lacking a bit of flavour. Not often complain about it but it was lacking some salt - which you expect with gammon. The rest of the meats were all good - although some of the cuts were a bit too rare. I don't mind rare meat but I prefer medium-rare (leaning a bit more towards the rare) but some of it was rare. The standout meats, and I have since heard they are a favourite of customers of Picanha (and Fazenda) is the belly pork and the lamb. My last visit to Fazenda and the belly pork was my fav that time. Lovely, juicy, marinated with honey and cinnamon. So overall, good food, nice restaurant and good service.

Unfortunately, Bem Brasil missed on most. 1st, let's speak to the speed of service. Now I realize that the slower they serve, the more you fill up without eating. Still, slow is an understatement of how Bem Brasil operates. 2nd, let's talk quality. While I didn't expect every cut of meat to be top notch, I was very disappointed with what came our way. They offer 12 different meats, however, I'd classify only one or two as high-end. Furthermore, the portions offered of the high-end were small and the waiter wouldn't budge on how they were sliced. 3rd and finally, while I normally come out stuffed from these type of eateries, I left somewhat hungry. All I could eat, and I couldn't eat more - not because of availability, but because of desire.

Our…read morewaiter was always near by, seemed concerned if there was a possible issue and was friendly without being unauthentic. I have been to many other rodizios and this was similar but on the high end. Started with fried prawns and cheese bread. I gave my prawn to my son so cannot comment and the bread was probably the weakest part of the experience, not bad but not great. Salad bar was excellent. Some nice touches included sushi, corn chips, mozzarella with tomatoes and smoked salmon. You come here for the meat, though, and they did not disappoint. Many different cuts, including lamb, beef, sausage and chicken. As I said, been to many rodizios and the meat was among the best. Particularly liked the ribeye, garlic steak and lamb chops. What was very nice was how often both the servers and our waiters asked about our favorites and made sure we got them. Again, the service really stood out here. Finally, had sorbet for dessert. Again good, but not as good as the meat. Highly recommended, would love to come back.

As well as a wide selection of salads, stews and curries, you are offered a selection of 15 different skewered meats - each one grilled to perfection. With everything from fillet steak to chicken hearts you wont be disappointed. If you have room for more deliciousness, you simply turn your card to green. If you are full to the brim, turn it to red and you will be left alone! Staff are exceptionally attentive and very friendly. Will definately be returning here. P. S. Try their sangria - it is divine!

Booking the monthly girly night we had originally planned to visit Bembrasil. However after…read morereading Mark B review he has said he wouldn have rated it higher if he had not attended Fazenda. Looking at the website I thought it was worth spending that extra fiver as it looked swisher. Using the websites booking system it was very simple to pick out slot for 19:30. On arrival there was a reception desk who immediately acknowledged us and a waitress who I felt had been waiting for us led us immediately to a comfy leather booth. The waiter who served us for the rest of the evening queried whether we has been before. When we all shook our heads he explained that after helping ourselves to the salad bar we would simply flip this carded disk to green when we wanted meat and red to stop. After choosing a fazenda cocktail and malbec we waited for our drinks before we set off. The booth was stunning we were walled in by bottles of wine . In front lay the well presented salad bar and the lighting in general made it feel eloquent. Browsing the salad bar made me happy it consisted of various cheeses, sushi, stuffed peppers, dolmas, asparagus, stir fry, mushroom and other rices, roast potatoes, pork stews, prawns in mango, whitebait, chorizo and many others . Basically it wasn't your average salad bar it was creative and hard not to go mad with it. Sitting down with our catch we flipped the disk to green and let the meat commence. The service was so frequent and attentive there were no gaps on waiting for meat when it was set to green. We had beef skirt, pork belly, chicken hearts (thought I would give it a go!) Rib eye steak and various other cuts of meat cooked to my standard I.e rare. However my friend was a well done person so the waiters would cut bits from different parts to ensure this. After devouring some minted lamb the waiter asked if there were anything else on the meat menu that we had not tried. Spying the chicken and bacon, black pudding and Gammon with pineapple we selected these. What I noticed is that they do have a veggie option of pumpkin and goats cheese risotto and gnocchi. They also offered tuna steak for pescaterians. To finish I chose a light sorbet consisting of raspberry, scoop of mango and a third scoop of lemon and lime. Overall I could not fault the service so we agreed to the service charge. The ambiance was great and the food. For £32.60 A head I would say it's worth it. I would suggest it's good for groups and couples.

I'm from California & live in Toronto, Canada - you can tell Californians because when we live other places we whine about not getting a good burrito. Yes, but I'm in Chester - I wasn't expecting anything or trying to emulate 'home' - we were just walking by & a bit hungry so we popped in thinking it'd be kitschy & cool. Wow. Srsly. The food is a mixture of cuban, spanish, mexican, brazilian, etc. I had a burrito. I would actually rate the burrito a bit better than most of what passes in Toronto. The service was awesome, even tho I hadnn't quite tuned my 'English' ears yet (was needing translation). However the margarita was world-freakin-class. I was expecting some sort of margarita mix/tequila mixture, but it honestly tasted like fresh lime and tequila - like an authentic margarita. It - was- awesome. I doubt I'll have many chances to visit Chester again, but if I do, I'm totally hunting down this place. For expats who might be in the area: check this out for your burrito fix!

There are also non-alcoholic cocktails like Raspberry Ripple too, I plumped for an interestingly titled cocktail called 'Dave'. They all come in fancy glasses so you can do your best Del-Boy impression with the parasols and cherries! They are not cheap though at £5+ for some, so perhaps a place to visit for one round only. There is also a dance-floor in the centre of a good size, which I'm sure was packed later in the evening. Fiesta Havana also does food too, but although we enquired the wait time was too long, by virtue of its popularity. The dishes that came past us looked tasty and were predominantly tapas.

A nice mix of old and new, with some eclectic choices and some classics, and £1 for five songs. On a Saturday night there wasn't a wealth of atmosphere and it was pretty quiet. Last orders were called shortly after we started our drinks so we called it a night then. I think I'll return to De Nada at some point for a casual drink with friends and perhaps food, just not for a rip-roaring night out.

The food here is always great and about on par with the prices to be expected in Chorlton, the portions are on the smallish side but are priced within that 'tapas order when you feel like it' range so it's reasonably acceptable, you'd probably need to order a couple of things if you were desiring a full meal. They have a decent range of cask beer and the keg on offer is not your average mainstream beers either which is always a pleasant occurence. Because of it's location, it is never packed solid with people so it is a great option in Chorlton if you are after a beer and a bite without contending with the usual Chorlton crowds especially on a Friday/Saturday evening. De Nada has a lunch time special running pretty much constantly where you can grab an empanada and a beer for £5 which is a bargain. There is good outdoor seating on a front deck for the warmer months. In Winter this is relegated primarily to smokers which can be a slight turn off when you are walking up to the bar, but it's fairly common practice around Manchester.
