The decor (high ceilings, crimson walls, and abstract art) at this Brazilian churrascaria is dramatic, but the atmosphere is casual, upbeat, and welcoming. Upon being seated you'll be directed to the extensive seasonal salad bar, filled with a variety of more than 40 salads, roasted vegetables, and soups. After filling your plate head back to your seat, where you'll find a coasterlike disc -- one side red, the other green. When you're ready for your main course just flip your disc to green. Immediately a troop of carvers will show up, offering a variety of grilled and roasted meats, including garlic marinated
picanha (rump steak), Brazilian sausage, pork ribs and chicken breast from their skewers. The bacon-wrapped filet is to die for -- it simply melts in your mouth. When you've had your fill, simply turn your disc back to red. Assorted side dishes (served tableside) are available to complement your meal (if you actually have any room for them). A handful of a la carte items, including Australian lobster tail and shrimp cocktail, are available as well (at an additional cost). Drinks and desserts are extra, too.
Tip: Kids ages 7 to 12 eat half-price here, and kids 6 and younger can eat for free.
