Raw meat, tasteless.  Cheese bread old and hard.  Food was disgusting.
Werner A.

DISGUSTING. Not recommended at all. Food. The food was so old and tasteless. The meat was nothing but disgusting. Not flavor. Every time I asked for medium well it was served raw, no salt, no garlic, tasteless. If one of your most popular foods is the cheese bread it should be outstanding but this was old and hard. Ambiance. Dinner time and the restaurant completely empty. Service. The only reason I have one date is that our waiter Douglas was the best. Very kind very attentive. But the guy that was serving the meat was the opposite.

Delicious food

Since i had missed the delicious Brazilian food we decided to visit this restaurant. First timer...This Brazilian Steakhouse serves delicious food with a phenomenal service. The manager who assisted us was extremely hospitable and every member of the staff was very attentive and cordial. The price of the buffet is very reasonable. I tried a couple of meat cuts and they were excellent. The picanha, sausage, lamb, rice and beans and every bite was very savory and delicious. I really enjoyed the rice, farofa and beans!!!! Overall everything was very tasty. I ordered the maracujá caipirinha and I loved it. The restaurant is very unique and the service provided was outstanding. I was happy to enjoyed a truly Brazilian experience. We will revisit to try the desserts! ;)

$111 lunch for 2.  $18% mandatory tip FOR A SELF-HELP BUFFET!!! THATS JUST OUTRAGEOUS!
Josh S.

Worst dining value in south FL. Brazilian lunch, loaded with salt and mediocre quality foods. The nerve of them to charge this much ($38.95pp) for a buffet, $3.50 for a can of soda and to add a mandatory 18% tip (for a self-serve buffet!!!! Wtf are they thinking???). That's $15.99 to bring a cup of coffee and 2 sodas to the table, and take away a few empty dishes!?!?. Empty empanadas, a bowl of bananas, a bowl of corn, average lobster bisque...mediocre food. Steak wrapped in undercooked bacon. The worst was the citrus chicken skewer which was little drumsticks. Not even chicken breasts. Is this a joke? This little restaurant is a TERRIBLE value for lunch and I left there feeling I had been taken advantage of.

Finally I found the authentic and DELICIOUS Brazilian Restaurant inMiami The food has absolutely D E L I C I O U S , place is clean fresh Im definitely come back for more

Caipirinha- drink of Brazil
Matt B.

This place is a hole-in-the-wall GEM! Was skeptical at first when I pulled in but tried it anyway and so glad I did. Food is awesome! The local Brazilian drink taste great too. Definitely recommend

My husband and I finally decided to stop in and we are glad that we did. Once we entered the beautiful restaurant we were greeted and seated immediately. Don't let the outside of the building fool you, it's a really nice, date night spot. It's an all you can eat with a great variety salad bar and you go straight to the meat section yourself. This is so much better that waiting for them to serve you. We found the meat to be good quality and cooked for different tastes. The food was so good that we had to take dessert to go. We will be back!

Bit of a hole in the wall. If I wasn't invited to this place by a friend, I would have never known it existed. Once you step inside you know you're in for a treat. Has a strong ambiance, All you can eat food bar and Steak + Sausages roasting on a spit. The food was surprisingly good.

This was my first visit to this restaurant, the food was very well cooked, the staff members were all very friendly and all helped out. The restaurant was very clean and the salad bar was kept clean and well stocked with fresh food This was a different Experience for me for a rhodesian restaurant. I'm use to them coming to the table, but wanted to give this a try since the reviews were so good. Glad I did, I will come back next time Im in the neighborhood

Can we do the rodízio and sit outdoors?

What's the cost of the buffet?

Do they cook pork together with everything else in the same pot / grill?

For certain dishes like Feijoada Not for everything they serve!!

Do I "HAVE" to make a reservation?

I never had to. At least for party of 4-5 people there's always tables available.

Do they have a salad bar only price? How much is it if so?

I suggest you don't go to that restaurant. The food is the least convenient for its price. Little variety - Prices not posted for easy looking. Very bad experience

How much does the standard buffet dinner cost?

$30

We've seen their sign for a couple of years now on Federal heading north between Hollywood and…read moreSheridan. The name never landed with us as it sounded like a standalone food court. It was the sign underneath that read, "Too tired to cook today?" that made us take notice. Looking at the online menu we found that it was not only a who's who of Latin dishes of different nationalities, but they also served bar fare - chicken wings, burgers, quesadillas, etc. Not knowing what their specialty was, we never committed to it. But today was one of those days where we felt like something different and we took a chance. The gamble paid off big. The menu was all over the place, so not knowing what direction to go in, I addressed the waiter who was all too ready to help. He pointed me to some of his faves: the Bandeja Paisa, Lomo Saltado, and Ropa Vieja. I'd had my eye on the Lomo Saltado, a popular Peruvian stir fry dish. The Bandeja Paisa is Colombian, and the Ropa Vieja - Cuban. I asked him what the nationality of the ownership was, when he revealed it was Colombian. I was immediately skeptical of ordering the ropa vieja - being half Cuban, I could not fathom the idea of a Colombian-owned restaurant pulling this off. So Joe took one for the team there. The waiter assured me that everything he has tried has in fact been delectable. But hey, what else is he supposed to say? But no, he assured me these were not marketing words, but words of experience. So I went for the Lomo Saltado which was served with black beans and rice, and french fries. He didn't hesitate to vouch for the black beans... I think he sensed my Colombian skepticism. Joe had replaced his fries for sweet plantains, so I took his cue and substituted my fries for tostones. But, not before warning the waiter that I would be particularly particular about the quality of my favorite plantain dish. He gave me a confident nod - so I played along. Joe's dish came out a few seconds before mine, and being the impatient carnivore that I am, I (let's say borrowed) his ropa vieja before he had a chance to pick up his fork. I was very pleasantly surprised. On par with any old clothes I have tried at any Cuban restaurant... and even better than some, albeit in longer strands than I've experienced. However, extremely juicy, full of flavor and tender. Then came my Lomo. I'm a first-timer, so I have nothing to compare it to, but it was fan-tastic. A bit charred outside with a juicy medium innard that cuts like butter, and to my relief, deceivingly tender. The lomo napped on a bed of sautée-charred veggies whose sweetness was a nicely balanced contrast to the savory meat. The black beans were definitely on point and seasoned with Colombian love. And those ten-ton-tostones!!! By far the thickest fried medallions I've had, but with a brutally loud crunch and still a real easy chew. And unlike John Travolta in a black T-Bird jacket, totally Greaseless. Often times, tostones of this variety are tough and as chewable as week-old yellow paper mache. Nope, these are some of the best tostones I've had in a couple of years. But by far the best of their kind. I also borrowed one of Joe's sweet plantations which once again left no trace of greased lightning and were rendered a perfect dark brown with a nice and plush sunshine yellow inside. The portions were more than generous and the price was comfortably modest. I expressed my deepest gratitude to our waiter for his patience and his spot on recommendations. He also swore by their burger which he had just sampled for the first time and which is made partly with Colombian chorizo and served with a side of chimichurri. Chorizo and chimichurri for little cha-ching.... I'm sure I'll be chowing on that real soon. Food Corner is a cornucopia of Latin influences, and so far, it's also a master of two of them.

The ceviche and causa were standout dishes, and while the concha was good, I didn't think it quite justified the price. I also had a fantastic cocktail that I'd definitely order again.
