A hidden gem! Never knew about it. We love Brazilian Steakhouses and had never knew about this one so off we went! Reservations are recommended but not required but due to the limited amount of tables, do so on the really busy days (F-S-SUN). We went on a Tues night and had made reservations for when they opened at 5pm. The atmosphere is awesome, lighting low, nice decor, really cozy. The staff were very attentive and fun, always quick to serve when something was needed. Now to the food.. This was a little different from other Brazilian Steakhouses we have visited when it came to the sides. They were buffet style. The salad bar had a large amount of fresh options on it. See photos for an example. Now to the meats. Absolutely amazing they were. I tried most of them and I wanted more everytime. Very tender and nicely seasoned. Pineapple was also on the skewer and was amazing the point I had thirds lol. We didnt have enough room for dessert so I cannot say anything about that option, but Im sure they are killer. Made to order drinks and beers are available from the bar. Senior citizens get a discount. The price of 59.95 was very good for the experience we had. I cannot say anything bad at all. We shall be back for sure and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone.

Great food selection, and it is buffet style. Men come around tables with before, lamb, pork etc and slice it off for you. Service was a bit wanting as we had to ask 3 times for coffee & finally, 15 minutes later, finally got a cup. Waitress was nice & they were somewhat busy but still way too long to wait for a cup. $52 a person is a bit much so, it will be a looooong time before we go back.

When we arrived, we were told that they were short-staffed. I have to say, there was no way we would have known had they not told us. The service was absolutely fantastic and the food was delicious. Rafael was quick to bring the specific meats we requested as well as the marvelous pineapple - always smiling, and so kind and gracious. Every member of the staff was wonderful. Thank you to Genesis who seated us and Katherine our server as well as the rest of those who brought our food making sure our plates were never empty and also those who prepared all of food. You made our anniversary a perfect experience.

We went to Ipanema and honestly had such an amazing experience 😍 The hostess was incredibly sweet from the moment we arrived, and they seated us right in front of the grill so we could watch all the meats being prepared, which made the whole experience even more special.
The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was incredible. The picanha, filet mignon, sausages, lamb… the gauchos kept coming to our table over and over with fresh, hot meats nonstop 😂 It felt endless in the best way possible.
The grilled pineapple was AMAZING. My kids absolutely loved it, along with the cheese bread. They couldn’t get enough of it! The salad bar was also fresh, beautiful, and had so many delicious options.
Our server Katy was wonderful, always checking on us and making sure we had everything we needed. Even the bussers were constantly refilling our water and keeping the table clean the whole time.
We left so full and happy, I could barely walk afterwards 😂 Highly recommend this place and we will definitely be coming back. Such a wonderful family experience ❤️
