You’re going to want to save up before you come to this Brazilian steakhouse, but you’ll be glad you did. The $50 prix-fixe menu includes a first course—a banquet-style buffet offering casseroles and vegetables—and for the main course, waiters offer your table select cuts of beef, pork, lamb, or chicken sliced right from the skewer. For dessert (provided you have room), there’s a tough-to-choose selection of Brazilian pastries, pies, and cakes. The décor is just as opulent—marble fixtures resembling something from a Frank Gehry building, overflowing plants, high ceilings, and tuxedoed gents stroking a nearby piano. Stick around long enough and you’ll enjoy free appetizers; now try to say “obrigado” with your mouth full.
Wait staff keeps you going, and will make sure you are properly stuffed. Be careful when they wheel around the extra carts, because you will have to pay extra for some of what they offer. Good for large groups of people.
