My friend lives in Boston and loves this place. He took me here for dinner and I love it too! :) For $22.00 a person you can get the all you can eat buffet and they also come around to your table with different meats. My favorite would have to be the garlic steak and I loved the plantains. Lots of variety to choose from and you definitely get your money's worth. read more

Oliveira's - Brazilian Near Me - Everett, Massachusetts

Four of my buddies brought me out for a birthday man-fest and Olivera's has the right tone. The odd grunts of Brazilian soap operas blare on the big screen television. You sit down at a clean-enough table. You get down to business. We all ordered the all-you-can-eat dinner. Just think endless rounds of plates. I went to check out the salad bar, snagged some freshly grilled plantains, but quickly realized I was in the wrong place. The skewers are where the magic happens. The waitress treated us well, but the "cook" (or should he be called the skewer-monger?) really made the night. He enjoyed our curiosity in his culinary offerings and catered to our enthusiasm. He must have walked over to our table with a new meat style ever 2-5 minutes... By the end of the first half an hour we realized we better slow down or we'd be comatosed in no time. With all things said and done, we had 14 different styles of cooked meats followed by a freaking delicious slice of chocolate cake over a couple hours of banter and BBQ euphoria. If you're on a diet or sensitive to salt, you're weak. Also, go somewhere else or you will regret your life. If you're hungry, with great friends and you've got an inkling for a dozen+ skewered meats, get on it. read more

Came here for lunch with some friends because one of them recommended it. For about $17 for all you can eat brazilian BBQ I was definitely down to try this place out. Location wise, it is pretty far from where I live (Waltham). It was a hassel to get here because most of the time we were going local and no freeway. Parking is very very limited in their lot but there is always street parking. The restaurant itself is nice and clean. They have several TVs and a spot where a live band plays. We got seated right away. There have plenty of side dishes to complement the meats they offer. They have a salad bar, a fruit bar, as well as other items such as fried plantain, rice, beans and pork stew, some fish dish, fries, fried yuca, and many other delicious sides. As for the meats, I tried the sirloin, lamb, chicken hearts, chicken, bacon wrapped chicken, and sausage. The best ones were definitely the lamb and chicken hearts. But all the meats are delicious. The chicken was kinda dry though but still very flavorful. Overall, not bad for $17. Most of the brazilian BBQs I've been to are at least $40 back in Cali. So for the price, not bad at all. read more

This is a reasonably priced steakhouse right in the Boston area. I really appreciated that this restaurant was able to accommodate my large party of about 20 guest on a Saturday evening. I made reservations about 2 or 3 days in advance and they were good about following up with me to confirm. Food: they have a great all you can eat options that is reasonable priced, where they bring to your table fresh skewers of all types of meat like Chicken, Pork, Beef, and Lamb. If you want a specific cut of meat, just ask one of the servers and they can bring it out for you. They will cut the meat right in front of you at the table. The meats were well seasoned, I didn't have to add anything to it. They also have a hot food bar where you can select from a choice of more meats and sides items like rice and vegetables. There is even a salad bar. Parking: they have a private parking lot along the back and side of the building. However this lot does tend to get filled to capacity but they do have street parking available right on the side of the restaurant. I would recommend this restaurant for an all you can eat meal with friends. Come hungry! read more

I came here on a Sunday after church for a family dinner. It was pretty packed. We opted for the weighed buffet style option, rather than paying the set price and eating as much as you'd like. All the food was very fresh and there were many options. My olive selection was overly salty but I enjoyed the salmon, as well as the different selections of meats that were cooked to perfection and very juicy. The deserts were also very good. I tried the flan, the tres leches cake and the chocolate cake. I don't even like chocolate cake but this one was so moist and the frosting paid perfectly with the cake. The flan was a little too dense but it was an overall good experience with good music, food, drinks and service. read more

Terrible service. Server stopped at our table once asked what we wanted to drink . One person said their drink order and she started to walk away. The Gaucho chef was going to only one table and that was it . We didn't see our server again. A different server had to come when he noticed we were satisfied we just asked for the bill and left . read more

During our last days, the inner carnivore called for Brazilian and so based on the rating this place was selected. Parking is at a premium since its located next to a heavily trafficked street. If you do find a parking slot, you must pay at the machine. As you enter, you have 2 areas where you can either select your sides for the Buffett or you can pay by the pound. We were taken to our seats and well this is where the perception game comes into play. It can be observed that its a community restaurant and area Brazilians have been eating there for years. Not only that but it has a bar area and people from the outside where going in to drink and listen to music. As a Texan, in Boston eating in a Brazilian restaurant where everyone is speaks Portuguese, you can infer we were out of place. I will not get stuck on this yet it was an uncomfortable feeling at times during our dinner. We ordered 2 Buffetts and kids ate chicken fingers and fries. The portion of fries was HUGE along with the chicken fingers. The beef, chicken, sausage, etc started to arrive. The issue there, as compared to other places, only one person was bringing the meats. Real nice young man yet only spoke Portuguese so my Spanish helped but not enough. Our regular waiter was more preoccupied with the bar and other duties so this combined with the young man serving us the meats made it vexing at times. When they were assisting us, the were very friendly. As most Brazilian restaurants, there is a cold table with veggies and other items which had that Chinesse Buffett feel when you know items have been sitting there for a while. Sadly, on this one experience, I wouldn't recommend it to eat yet you can see the bar scene was fun. At $74 it was a fail for us. read more

My 65 year old mother and I got kicked out for having a service animal lol If you have a service animal don't even try going in they will either ask you to leave while you've already sat at the table or at the entrance.

Food was pretty good, unfortunately this place had the worst hostess/waitress service. To begin, as I walked into this establishment there's a sign at the hostess station that reads "Please wait to be seated" and as I waited the hostess completely ignored me and the rest of the incoming clientele. When I asked how this restaurant worked, since it was my first time there, the hostess demonstrated a poor attitude, with an "annoyed" expression. She barely answered my question or explained how the restaurant worked and all I got was a nod, she did not speak, guide us to our seats, or answer my questions. I saw that a couple of people who had walked in went right up to the buffet line, so I did the same and later asked one of the waitresses that was passing by if I could sit anywhere as they had a pretty full house and she asked me if the hostess had not given me a table, I said no, and she seemed to be pissed about it, and just told me to sit anywhere. I thought it was just a one time bad experience, however a couple weeks after I was in Oliveiras again and had the displeasure of encountering the same hostess, which was once again pretty rude, some of the bbq servers noticed her behavior and I hope they took it up to management so they may place someone better suited for that position. Needless to say I will not be returning to this restaurant when in the area, there are other great spots with the same quality brazilian food in Revere. read more

I've ordered from here several times recently while staying in the area. Had it delivered. They were accommodating for special requests. Food was good, portions were large, prices reasonable. You won't be disappointed here! read more

Horrible customer service here I ordered delivery via a third party app and within seconds of confirming my order a co worker wanted some food as well. So I go to cancel my order to update it and am being charged full price basically to cancel supposedly food was ready and driver was dispatched within 24 seconds I swear on my life I would not make this up. So I call the restaurant and ask the man over the phone to cancel for me because I'd like to add to my order, he claimed it was ready and would not let me cancel this is all within a minute. I begged him and said I just wanted to add to the order and would still be getting food, he claimed they were not busy so my food was ready even though the Uber eats app was still loading for them to prepare. This is literally stealing if I was in the restaurant I could have canceled or just left, he refused to help me out and my co worker was left without a lunch. I will never eat from here again you can have the best food but with bad service it will always taste like trash. I mentioned I'd be leaving a review and the man told me to help myself so here it is!!! read more

The fish stew... oh my god, it's amazing. The meats and sides were awesome, but the fish stew our friend ordered... it was by the far the best dish I've had here in Everett. Going to miss it when I head home across the country. read more

The " heart of palms " salad ITS NOT A SALAD. It's a cold appetizer with YELLOW CHEESE, ham, heart of palms and olives. Pretty much ridiculous call that as a SALAD, because even in Brasil, this is not a salad. The yucca came just like french fries, almost doesn't taste like yucca, in the picture the showed as the pieces of real yucca. And the "picanha" was not even close to be REAL picanha. Terrible! SUPER expensive, they charge for delivery but they actually don't pay the delivery guy. We're COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED with Oliveira's delivery. We've at the Oliveira's in Sommerville already 3 times and we loved and got super excited to have delivery in the Everett location, trust me, in years of seamless, this was my WORST experience EVER !!!!!! I'll not recommend ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING! Nothing that came it was good. read more

This review is long over due , seeing me n my husband like going to this place and has have been for over 2yrs ...Always enjoy coming here!!! Great food and live music always leaves us feeling like an accomplished night out. Price- not to expensive for the buffet , which is a plus seeing the food is amazing. location- depending on night parking can be a little tricky. However on Saturday nights free parking at meters lol -this place is great for a date night , walk in grab and go , or simply a family night out. -customer service -is good , however just like any place your always going to have those few workers that are simply rude. But overall the service is good. read more

If you want the real deal in Brazilian BBQ, head over to the not so nice city of Everett. Sadly, my go-to spot was closed by the city for licensing reasons. So the Sis and I asked some locals and found out about Oliveira's down the street. The price wasn't as good as my old spot, but the food was just as good. Choose between the all you can eat or pay by the pound. Opt for the weight option, as it's a better bang for your buck. Mound on the sides, chit chat in Portuguese, and mosey on over to the Meat Dude. He'll give you some mean BBQ Chicken, sausage, prime rib, and other red meat treats. read more

Ehh. I had massive anxiety trying a Brazilian BBQ for my first time and this place wasn't the best at explaining things. I almost walked out. To the servers: Please take the time to explain how the Brazilian bbq works... not everyone automatically gets it. Other than that, the food was good. Now that I understand how it works, I'll be less nervous to try again in the future * 'all you can eat' does not include dessert or ice cream. I felt ripped off being charged for ice cream when I definitely wouldn't have got any if I didn't think 'all you can eat' meant 'all you can eat except the dessert'. Misleading and expensive.- but my meal was good. read more

Oliveira's is a cool Brazilian joint in Everette with some fantastic meat. Seriously, if you consider yourself a carnivore, you need to come here! This unassuming restaurant is a surprisingly good time, and more importantly, good eat. The place is divided into 3 sections: the casual buffet area, the slightly nicer dinner area with live musicians, and the bar with tvs and karaoke. I want to come back for a proper dinner soon, but I hung out at the bar with the family and had a really good time. We ordered some filets of beef and fries, and they were delicious. The meat was so flavorful, juicy, and out of this world good. Just be careful with the drinks! The bartender warned me her drinks were strong, and she wasn't kidding. I ordered one white russian, and it pretty much made me drunk. Granted, I'm a light weight, but I've never experienced unsteadiness and giddiness to the degree I did after that knock out of a drink. Who makes white russians that are almost entirely vodka...they do! To top it off, the people who work here are really nice. They are good at giving honest recommendations for both food and drinks, and definitely have a good sense of humor. read more

I've been to many rodizio-style restaurants from the uber fancy Fogo de Chao in D.C. to the more down-to-earth Midwestern Grill in Somerville, and a few places in between. Oliveira's is somewhere in the middle, closer to 'down-to-earth,' for sure, but it was still a fun experience. I recommend not getting too much at the salad bar--especially not starches!--because the best thing to do is fill up on the meat. That's what you're spending the 16.95 on... not to eat a bunch of white rice, right? (The fried yucca WAS pretty yummy, though.) I enjoyed the top sirloin and the steak the best. The chicken was all right, the chicken heart (not my fave, but sort of obligatory at these things, no?) was good, and the brisket was tender. Definitely opt for more sirloin and steak, though, when you get the chance. The meat here was cooked way more unevenly than at other rodizios I've been to... like even the different pieces I got--from the same slab of meat--ranged from way well-done to super rare. That wasn't so fun, but at least they're not sticklers for finishing everything on your plate. The waitress who seated us and refilled our waters was very nice, so the service sort of made up for the hit-or-miss food. It was fun, like I said, but out of all the other options there are in the greater Boston area for rodizio restaurants, I don't think this one tops the list. read more

If you like meat, then this is the place to be. I got takeout. You walk in and there's a buffet right in the middle with about 30 selections of rice, beans, homemade food, salads etc. After you've filled out the container, you scoot over to the right and you order the grilled meats. The selections are diverse: steak, sausage, lamb, chicken wings, chicken hearts (yummm!). Then, you weigh your takeout and pay. I try not to pay attention to how many pounds I consume in one sitting. They also have some yummy deserts, Brazilian cakes, panna-cota, mousses. It gets one star off because the steak was not sliced against the grain, making it very chewy and unpleasant. In fact I barely touched it, instead focusing on those delicious chicken hearts. read more

Holy crap this place was great. It's like Midwest Grille but twice as many options and half the price. That's right - HALF THE PRICE. it is $13.50 for all you can eat lunch or dinner. That's right - 13.50 for ALL YOU CAN EAT DINNER. You'd pay like $35 at midwest grille for this. The food was really good and there were about 30 buffet items to choose from. For fresh meats, the guy kept coming over and slicing me tenderloin, brisket, sirloin, lamb, chorizo, and 4 various kinds of chicken parts. They just opened a bar and have live music 4 days a week. The only bummer, of course, is that this joint is in Everett. Also, they need to redo the floor in the old room to match the one in the new room, it looks weird. But the waitstaff was super friendly and I really loved eating here, even though it was in Everett. read more

It doesn't look too nice but the meat selection and taste is AMAZING. My favorite was actually the grilled pineapple, you gotta try it! I also liked the Bacon-Wrapped Chicken and a lot of the steak and lamb. The buffet was a little lacking however and I was sad they didn't walk around bringing the food to you. read more

Amazing! All the food was surprisingly delicious, even the pasta, which I initially was very unsure of. The brisket was so, so good! Some of the best I've ever had. I'd recommend doing the all-you-can-eat because there's just too much good stuff to miss! The wait staff was also so friendly and very attentive! I cannot wait to go back!! read more

We love this place! We have been here many times and each time it is great! While my boyfriend obsesses over their meats, I can't get enough of the sides, especially all the salads they have. Nothing is over seasoned or too salty or not salty enough. We really enjoy the food here and will continue to come during the week when we are just too tired to cook! read more

Awesome. I'd never been to a south-american style restaurant before, and this was definitely a good new experience. We had the buffet, which was filled with delicious items, but the meats carved at the table were the best. Parking was tight, but I managed to get out again without damaging anything. I'd definitely say that everyone should try this place at least once. I'm planning to go back with more friends. read more

Amazing Place!! I just visited this place and had the Rodizio - all you can eat barbecue which they bring to your table - and it was Terrific! The service was good, the live music (which they have on Friday and Saturday nights) was very nice, the buffet was pretty good, but the meat was amazing! There was such a nice variety of meat, and it was all delicious. The buffet could be a little bit stronger, but it is overall great especially considering the price. Also, I love that there was a fruit buffet for dessert. The Rodizio is a great value and so much fun! The restaurant has a great atmosphere, and it's hard to believe that there is a such a gem in Everett. I highly recommend it and can't wait to go back! read more

I guess the service and food depends on whoever is working that day. We order that same thing three times and every time it was a different thing! This is what we got for a $20 plate, same one we order a lil while ago and got 3x as much. Our sushi also is all over the place, we ordered a LOBSTER MAKI, No lobster anywhere, all we got was tuna and crab rolls. Worst part: when we called to ask about the "discrepancy" the answer was unless you bring it here, there's nothing we can do. If a business can't do anything to a customer it should just close. To make it short: terrible terrible customer service, YOU WILL NOT GET WHAT YOU PAID FOR! unless the right person is there that day. Its really a hit or miss. One word of advice: PRAY! Pray the right person will be there. S-A-D. read more

Oliveira's - Brazilian Near Me - Everett, Massachusetts

This place was fantastic this evening! They knew it was our first time here, and they were so welcoming. We had a reservation for the dining room. They take reservations for the bar area as well. We were too early for the live music, which looks like it's set up in the bar. The food is just amazing. We had the rodizio option. There are two buffets of sides. We had the meat brought on skewers table side, and sliced of for us. There is a full menu, which has many entree and sides to choose from. You can also opt for the buffet including meat, which is then weighed, and then you pay. Everything was very fresh and tasty. The top sirloin, flank steak, spicy sausage, wings were all excellent. We love lamb, and Oliveira's didn't disappoint. Simply excellent! We finished off with a slice of chocolate mousse pie, just the thing. Dessert is extra, and not expensive. We cannot wait to return! We'll come later to be there for the music. read more

All in all, I'd give 3.5 stars. Oliveira's was a solid experience for my boyfriend's first encounter with a Brazilian style steakhouse. There were a few minor things that could have bumped it up to four stars, as Ive been to other rodizios and not had these issues. They have a reservation portion of their website where you can make a request. I did so expecting a call back to confirm and never got a call. So a few days later I called to talk to someone and was passed to 4 different people who all asked me what I wanted. Clearly, there was a lack of communication and customer service going on. Finally, due to some language barriers, I placed what I thought to be a reservation at 7:00. We arrive, there is a tiny parking space which I eventually had to Austin Powers my way out of, but a parking lot nonetheless. We enter the restaurant and immediately notice buffet style items and seating to the left and the right. The right area seemed a bit less formal and I was nervous at first cuz that was the only one I saw initially. The seating behind the host stand was where the live music was and an overall more pleasing decor. Of course, after the back and forth with the reservation, and me even extending myself and calling to let them know we might be 15 minutes for our reservation, they have no record of it. Luckily, the dining room wasn't too crowded so it didn't matter. But still, I talked to like 5 different people and not one of them took it down properly? We are seated and both order drinks and the rodizio, and the meat is immediately brought over. Keep it comin boys! I'm here to eat. We get up and get our sides and salad, etc from the buffet (strange note: they served sushi and spaghetti with marinara... not sure how authentic some of these side dishes were). Overall, the sides selection left something to be desired. I found myself sticking with mostly the rice and salad. Was a little sad there was no mashed potato or yucca option to be found. The meat was all delicious and clearly this place's strong point. We tried chicken wrapped in bacon, regular chicken, chicken wings, chicken sausage, and a couple cuts of beef. Salty, flavorful, tender, delicious. If you're on a diet or some sort of salt restriction, this is not the place for you. For anyone else who enjoys eating as much tasty different types of meat as possible, you will enjoy your experience here (ignore the random sexual innuendo). The other gripe I had with the service was that the main server never really checked up on us throughout the meal. While he initially was prompt, he forgot my water and I didn't see him for the next like 40 minutes. Add that with a ton of food (not to mention salty food) and I was in some pretty dire need of any beverage at that point. The live music was a nice touch (save the random technical difficulties) and the overall vibe of the place was nice. Everything from families to dates. Overall, the strong suit of this place is the meat and despite the minor pitfalls, is still worth the drive to Everett. Next time, I might just try ordering by the pound. Quick note: The Oliveira's in Woburn, Peabody, etc are not related to this one. While I believe it is a chain, the location in Everett is owned separately and by different management. Not sure if this affects how business is operated or what menu is served. read more

My review is also of the East Boston restaurant... I will probably need to update once I actually go to the restaurant myself, but my boyfriend ventured out a few Saturdays ago to try to find this place based on my really bad walking directions. In any case, he found it and brought us back seven pounds of meat and sides (priced by weight). I was not excited by the sides he chose, but the meat (a beef, a pork and sausage) was scrumptious. I mean, how can you go wrong with a tray of meat? The 2-liter of Coke he bought there still had Santa's smiling face on it... in March... but I'll let that one slide. read more

The picanha entree for two is ah-MAZ-ING! Great deal and really feeds 3-4 people. Less excited about their buffet. Didn't even have pão de queijo. No room for dessert. Service is very friendly and they have live music. read more
