It's an AYCE buffet with churrascaria and the set price is R$268 (~$50 USD) plus 13% service charge. It includes the salad bar with vegetables, salads, soup, seafood, sushi, and churrascaria (meat, seafood, sides). The best options for the churrascaria were the ribeye steak, salmon with passion fruit sauce, and the lamb. I did appreciate that if you request a churrascaria item, they do bring it to you. You can also request sauces as well, the chimichurri sauce was good. I think the buffet was good value since you get a large selection of food and the quality was pretty good.

We got the toscano sausage which was fabulous and the best along with broccoli rice and steak. The broccoli rice was fantastic but the steak could be better.

Service was also very good, attentive and friendly, and the overall atmosphere was lively and pleasant. The buffet had a decent selection, though it was a bit hit or miss. Personally I skipped the sushi, as the fish looked a little darker than expected. But maybe that's the colour of raw salmon in Brazil. Cocktails were very good, though they did come with quite a bit of ice. Parking on the street is very challenging, but you mainly come here on walk, since this area is quite touristy and offers many stores nearby.

For starters the ambiance was great, and wait staff was very accommodating! We were greeted and seated right away! The salad bar was very appealing and was filled with a wide selection of choices. The oxtails that were near the salad bar were so amazing and seasoned to perfection! I tried a small portion of a lot of items and was very pleased with them all. When we sat down the staff started over with the different meats and all the ones I tried were sooooooo goooooood! I would highly recommend this place and will visit again, when I'm in town!

While in Brazil, you learn quickly that the locals love steak and I love steak so figured this would be a fun trip. We decided to come to Carretao which is a rodizio style Brazilian restaurant. Once seated inside the weight staff try the very best to explain to us how everything works. You're given a disc which is right on one side and green on the other side as long as the green side is showing the staff will continuously bring different cuts of delicious meats to your table and slice you off some samples. There was an open salad bar, which was loaded with fresh salads and little appetizers, but the main attraction was the never ending Daisy chain of meats. I was in heaven, and I enjoyed every moment of it. My only complaint about this restaurant was that I definitely bought my appetite and after sometime, I noticed that the staff stopped coming to the table with the prime cuts of meat, but would only come with the less desirable cuts this didn't bother me too much because I definitely ate more than my fair share lol. I would absolutely come here again. The price was amazing. The staff was friendly and at the end of dinner we got some delicious dessert shots, which were quite a treat.

The filet mignon was seasoned in butter and other stuff so it wasnt my favorite. There no menu here so it's basically all you can eat steak and what they have at the salad bar. The salad bar had pork, cod and other options as well. I got th sea bass and thought it was delicious. I saw the waiter walk around with some sausage I think but he didn't come to my table. The owner of the place or manager used a translator app to ask me questions from Portuguese to English. The price is very reasonable here and the service is top notch. The only issue I had was flagging down someone to get the check since it took a while for the manager or owner to come. Their machine will show you the R price and the price in US dollars. I didn't have the option to leave tip so I don't know if that's already added in.
