I have not been to this specific Brazilian Steakhouse, but have been to others that have a similar operating model. There is an abundance of food and the main courses of meats are offered as guests request them throughout the meal. The food is delicious and the salad bar is outstanding. You need to really pace yourself. Because of the meats coming around constantly during the main course as guests request various selections, there tends to be a constant interruption of your meal. I went to this type of restaurant with friends I had not seen in a very long time for a special occasion. While the food was abundant and delicious, the constant offering of various meats as the guests request them to be a rather hectic and interruptive pace of the meal. Visiting with others during the meal was difficult.

If you want a great food experience with a lot to eat, this is a good option. If you want a more social, relaxed dining experience, this may not be for you. They don't rush you, don't get me wrong, but it's just a constant offering of food. The food was great, but the experience was not my cup of tea.
