I have been here several times for different occasions from group celebrations, hens, get together with friends. On all occasions I have thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and entertainment. The buffet meal that they have as part of the entrance fee of $62 for Saturday includes Brazilian Churrascaria (BBQ grill) various BBQ meats I believe from 8 different choices including chicken, lamb, pork, spicy sausages, ribs. Spicy sausages are by far one of my favorite and the lamp. At the buffet section there are a wide range of options from salads, pulses, rice, vegetable dishes, traditional Brazilian beans and more, towards the end there are a few desserts options. On one occasion, our group was quite large and the bottom floor was completely filled, they had booked us upstairs which I had thought would be different in terms of the buffet, entertainment, however the atmosphere was just as lively and enjoyable probably a smaller version of the huge floor space ...read more
I celebrated my hens and my birthday here. Such a great atmosphere. Live band playing south american music. A dance floor to shake it off and then back to your table to eat more. Such a great way to enjoy food, having waiters bring all you can eat different types of meat on skewers, such a different way of dining. Then there is the salad bar, you can grab different types of salads or sides like chips, bread, veggies, sauces all to go with the different types of meat. A lot of fun with a group.
Poor service! We were seated at the wrong table, buffet plates were never collected, they just piled up on our table, dessert never came. Drinks didn't arrived until we went back 40 minutes later to order them again. Food tasted like school canteen food. Show has gone downhill. It used to be so much better! Definitely not worth the money.
Went here over the weekend and whilst it wasn't the worst restaurant experience I have ever had I would struggle to want to return.
You arrive at 7:30pm and are ushered into the "Lounge" upstairs for pre-drinks. We instantly were not impressed when we entered the lounge, it is simply a run down looking room upstairs with a few scattered chairs and tables - not enough for everyone to get a seat so we had to stand awkwardly in the corner with our drinks.
Come downstairs and you are seated and pointed to the salad bar to begin helping yourself. The salads selection was delicious, plentiful and set out very professionally and clean and I ended up going back for seconds and filling up before the meat had even come ...read more
