Food was good for the first time here, some of the meat was fatty but they were nice enough to exhange the fatty pieces for better pieces. Good variety of sides. Sevice was good except for their customer interaction didnt like their approach to us. Environment is nice looks very festive.

Excellent! Llevamos nuestros empleados y quedaron muy encantados! Gracias Lo único que no me gusta de Yelp es que te obligan a escribir demasiado

We just arrived in Newark and we were researching for lunch! We found this amazing brazilian place! It is a all you can eat, with a big variety of the Brazilian Dishes and also Brazilian Bbq! Everything was really delicious ! The place is beautiful and cozy! Feels like I am in my beautiful country, Brasil Evelyn was such an amazing person, she was very helpful, took such a great care of us. The juices and caipirinhas were great! And also the pineapple desert!

Ambiance: Music was too loud, hard to have a conversation. Decor was good, nothing too outstanding Service: very average. The water brought over barely had ice in it, but they did put lemon in. Food: we got the all you can eat. The servers dont speak english so when they come by with the skewer and announce what it was, it became a guessing game... i honestly wasnt sure what meat. Other than that food was decent. Nothing standing out of it being a brazilian rodizio. I dont think there was filet mignon as one of the meat. Their salad bar was pretty good, had alot of choices. One thing I would recommend is the pineapple at the very end. Cinnamon pineapple... Sorry, was very hungry and totally forgot to take pics...

Went on friendly date to The Taste Of Brazil. We were greeted at the front by a waitress. A Groupon was used and redeemed before we were seated. There was a self serve buffet with different types of foods. After we plated the food from the buffet, the servers came around with many different types of steaks other meats to choose from. There was chicken, lamb and my first time favorite was the fried pineapple it was so good with light dusting of cinnamon! I would love to go back!
