Delicious food, very accommodating and attentive staff, great atmosphere! They have a private area available for special events. So much meat!

Loved the tritip, and the prosciutto at the salad bar was very good (prosciutto often tastes rancid to me).

I would highly recommend Brazilian to anyone. This location is top notch. Service is on point all night from the entire staff. Food is on par with the price and has most of the favorite meats. The selection at all Brazilian places varies slightly. I enjoyed all of it including the pineapple which is not always available at other establishments.

Great place all around. I like them better than Fogo de Chao for their meat flavor and their warm food selection at the buffet bar. Always pretty easy to get a reservation too so whenever I need my Brazilian steak fix, I visit them either in San Mateo or SF.

Still good since our first time many many years ago.

It really seemed that everyone was synchronized and exactly knew what they were doing.whatever change u guys did keep it up.
We also noticed majority were male workers which I was most impressed with than the other female folks who were not impressive at all (from the last 2 visits).

Anyway we got to meet Mario who was very friendly and liked how he interacted with our picky son. Thank you guys until we see you guys again

You gotta love meat to like this place. I find the meat lacks "art", just slabs of meat grilled, without any interesting taste. Salad bar is extensive but nothing to write home about. For the price this is over-rated. Two people with one dessert and one hot tea cost $100 for lunch.

Fun place if you like to taste different meats, good varieties of salad. Cheese bread do not skip it, friendly staff. Good place to go with family and friends.

First time there was great experience. I dont eat meat but they had really good fish and salad bar.the dessert were yummy. Flan was on point and their fruity mousse was good if you like sour tart flavor.the red sangria was delish! Pretty strong but good!

We ate with a very large group, service was impeccable. Food was amazing and very generous. I couldn't believe how often the servers came to our table offering different meats.

Very good Brazilian Steakhouse. My personal favorites: beef ribs, chicken hearts, pork belly, and fried plantains. All they were missing was some good sauce like a chimichurri and chicken gizzards. Very fun place for a group dinner.

Pricey but delicious food. A place to spend a while and eat and savor slowly. Great drinks to go with a large selection of slow cooked meats

I would have given this place 4 stars if they had not charged us for 12 rodizio instead of 10. Although our original reservation was for 12, I'm sure our server could clearly see that only 10 people were present. So not only did they receive the additional $121.90 for the additional 2 meals but they also received the additional tax & tip ($33).
Don't get me wrong, the food was pretty good, I especially recommend the papaya from the side bar, the filet mignon was pretty good, I tried several other meats, some were a little over cooked in my opinion. The mint mocha was strong, pretty and delicious. The service was on point, once we were finally seated, we waited an additional 20-30 minutes after our reservation time. I don't know if it is Espetus practice to charge for people not in attendance or not but either way, it is a pretty shady charging us, we didnt realize it until we got home. All the confusion of the additional cost really put a damper on our evening we had to use cash & 4 credit cards to split the bill, we probably won't be returning.

Wowza! Everything from the moment you walk into this place is amazing, even the locks on the bathroom doors are well designed. Food was absolutely delish! The bill? ! Not so delish, but what can you say after everything else was so great!

I came here for my birthday. I prefer this location versus the SF location because I don't like driving in SF. They only have street parking. Around 60 bucks person. We were there for 1.5 hrs and they made around 2 trips for each meat.
My favorites were bacon wrapped filet mignon, garlic sirloin and lastly the flank steak. I will be back here Instead of espetus sf and fogo de chao sf.

First time and I love the variety of meats. I ate so much that I took a nap in the car within 5 minutes of leaving the restaurant. I look forward to coming back.

First time going to Brazilian Steak House. The experience was great. Service was excellent, food was delicious, ambiance was great, and the food was delicious. Very pricey, so choose your company wisely.

I would recommend forgoing the appetizers and salad (which are delucious, and included in the price of the meal), and loading up on your favorite cuts of meat. Desserts were good, but some options are better than others and dessert is not included in the price of the meal.
