    Cute shop
    Noel V.

    OMG the açaí bowls are heaven. Probably the best açaí bowls I have had. All the base flavors are really good. The toppings were all fresh. So many topping to choose from (most fruit options, toasted coconut, coconut flakes, agave, honey, condensed milk, protein powders, chia seeds, peanut butter, etc) We tried the custom bowls and they were fantastic. The bowls were about $9-$15 depending what size you get (kids, small, medium, large, or custom). They let you sample the base flavors like an ice cream shop so don't hesitate to try. The shop is the cutest thing ever. They incorporate the Brazilian culture into it.

    Cute nice girl took our orders. She said we could even sample any base we wanted to help us pick what to get. I got the Rio with honey instead of sweetened condensed milk and loved it. I also feel that I should add- this place has great reviews on Find Me Gluten Free so it is a celiac safe place. And they have gf Brazilian cheese bread too! My açaí bowl was delicious from the first to last bite. And great parking too!

    Rio Acai is our absolute FAVORITE Acai place. I love that their Acai base does not resemble a syrupy sorbet, and is filling, not sugary like other places can be. The ambience is so cute. They have a variety of sitting areas and a carpeted play area with toys for children. The service is always quick. We almost always have good experiences. However, I did dock one star because there is an older lady that works there that can be rude and impatient when we bring friends who are visiting for the first time and they have questions or don't know what they want right away.

    Now I know

    I've seen people at work back in 2016 having these amazing looking bowls of stuff... is it ice cream, healthy, good? All these questions... finally answered. I m off today and drive by here whenever I get coffee...When I walk in it's cool, peaceful, relaxing music, with an interesting jungle/beach with heme happening. I dig it. I feel good being here. The ordering process is easy. They have 6 tried and true basics or you can create your own. I choose the brand new Energy Bowl. The Açaí is stored and presented like you're in a ice cream shop, then there's the fresh berries and chopped fruit you can add and dry items you can add like granola, hemp hearts, chia seeds etc... Lastly there's to 6 squeeze bottles of sauce. I choose the peanut butter but wished I kept it fruity with the guava. There are restrooms and lots of lounge seating with couch's and comfortable chairs to chill. First bite! Was weird... I put peanut butter sauce on top of blueberries and kiwi... what was I thinking? It's good but weird... should have chosen a fruit based sauce. My bad! Next bite was the açaí and it was cold and delicious... like a sorbet. It's fresh, lots of fiber and good nutrition. Thank for reading this review and I will be back. Support your local small businesses

    Wow. Definitely the best açaí bowl I've ever had. Very fresh toppings! Their açaí peanut butter base has such a great texture and flavor. They have really good granola and peanut butter crumble topping as well. The service was good and they let you sample the base flavors. They have create your own bowl options as well as once they recommend on their menu as well. They also sell cheese bread. We didn't get that but will have to do so next time. Such a cute store too. Loved the theme and decor!

    This place is popping!! Came here for a refreshing lunch break and was surprised at the line waiting for order. The açaí bowl was delicious and I can definitely eat it everyday...except I can't because it's pretty pricey. The large (which is the what I got) is a pretty medium size too. It's a nice treat during the hot summer days but not something economical to eat frequently.

    In a small strip mall with swig and sbx. We never have to leave! Lots of parking. Helpful workers. Super cute interior. Build your own can be expensive but they were delish and filling. Limited outdoor seating

    açaí and mango base - coconut, banana, strawberry, almond butter, chia pudding, sweetened condensed milk.
    Lindsey C.

    Loved it! So fresh! I love you can choose different bases and mix them up a bit. I got the açaí and mango as the base. They have different fruit toppings; mango, banana, strawberry, blueberry. They offer sweetened condensed milk, peanut butter, Nutella, almond butter, chia pudding, bee pollen, chia seeds, dif coconut shavings. I was impressed with the selections they had. My bowl was awesome I'd definitely recommend. The place itself is also really cute - the decor gives a jungle vibe to it. It's a bummer it's closed on sundays. Also get the Brazilian cheese bread, u get 3 mini bite sized pieces for $1 with your bowl nice treat... wish they were bigger tho.

    Built my own medium acai bowl ($12.36)... this is how it looked before I even dug into it...

    I've been here twice since my last 3 star review and have been happy both times! The owner responded to my last review addressing my concerns very professionally and patiently, so I appreciate that! Definitely my go-to spot in the SoJo area!

The people who run this place are Brazilian so I believe the food should be pretty authentic. They are all very friendly. I liked the chicken coxinha. It was a bit dry, but the taste was great. We got the pastel beef too. However, I was quite disappointed that there weren't a lot of meat inside. I won't order this again. I enjoy their fruit tarts! There aren't very many Brazilian restaurants in Utah, so I'd recommend people who want Brazilian food to check this place out! I'd be interested to try their lunch buffet some time.

The restaurant is beautiful with fancy light up menus which is needed because it's pretty dark inside. I ordered the beef ribs and my husband ordered the picanha. Both came out extremely tough and chewy. My daughter had to spit out her bite because she got tired of chewing so we had to cut each piece into 1/2 cm pieces for it to be palatable. I've been to Brazilian steak houses before and beef ribs are usually the most tender and flavorful especially when there is bone. The server did say it was going to on the chewy side but I didn't think he was serious. Like why would you make meat intentionally chewy? For a $50 dish that came with no sides and worse than what we've made at home it's pretty disappointing. We also ordered a side of the grilled veggies which had some veggies that were so bitter and others that were undercooked and no seasoning. The purple yams were decent and the coquettes but again the pricing for each was exorbitant. Also because they have a somewhat open kitchen style concept the dining room got extremely hot and we were just dying to get out quickly. For two entrees, two sides, one app, a bottle of water and glass of wine a bill of $225 was not worth it. Sadly not a great experience.

That's quite a name, conjures up some western cowboy wagon train buffet! We don't have any buffets where I come from with names like that! I pointed it out to my crew and they wanted to come here for dinner some time. So, here we are it's dinner time at the Chuck Wagon ... or Rama or whatever! There plenty of parking and the big shopping center is located just north off the 215. We go in and it's actually a decent sized buffet dining room and seems more clean and organized than some Chinese buffets we've been to and all the servers speak perfect English too. The website has a good display of prices and what's on the menu everyday, so best to check that out. They offer regular American food every night like roast beef and fried chicken as well as turkey and mashed potatoes along with French fries and pizza, so you see, there's something for everybody here. It was BBQ night when we went, so there were ribs on the menu. Ribs, fried chicken and fries, can't beat that for around $19 per person, that's a reasonable price. The food quality wasn't say Vegas $90 buffet, but certainly well worth $19! I like the ribs just fine as did the rest of my crew, I know they're big on the rib thing. Yes, they do have decent salads, so it's not all meat and potatoes. I'd come back here again!

The dessert selection was amazing too, there was so much variety, like their rice puddinf. The staff was friendly, the restaurant was clean, and the food was consistently great both visits. Honestly, I wish we had a Chuck-A-Rama in California. We'd be regulars! If you're in Utah and looking for a buffet with homemade comfort food and plenty of options, this place is definitely worth a visit.
