Amazing service. There is so much going on once you get seated. Highly recommend this place if you’ve tried Fogo or Texas de Brazil before. Would definitely come back soon if you have an appetite.

Wether you like steak or not, this place is a must! The Salad Bar alone superseeds the value that one will pay coming to this place. When it comes to authentic Brazilian food, this place is a step up from Fogo De Chao, that's why I come here. The Steak and meat quality, variety is absolutely amazing and the service is unlike any other. This place is a must if you have not yet been here. You will thank me later.

Everything was perfectly seasoned and juicy "prime" quality meats. We went on a Thursday evening and service was a little slow. We waited a few times for the meat servers to make their way to our table..but they were fully booked. Still highly recommend. Best Brazilian Steakhoise in Chicago and suburbs.. you won't be disapointed.

Overall, I wasn’t super impressed. The ladies up front were really nice. Salad bar was just okay. I am not sure who our server was because there were so many different people bringing us stuff. Meat selection was like any other Brazilian steak house. My bariatric card wasn’t honored which is at other places so paid $65 for me to eat maybe a kids sized portion because that’s all my stomach can hold. My boyfriend really wanted to come so that’s why we went. It was just an OK place. Don’t think I would be back.

Impeccable service inside and outside (even by the Valet opening the car door for my wife even though I, not a valet, pulled the car up, thoughtful), Delicious and prompt food servings, I will return. All wait staff and servers were helpful and prompt. Salad bar could use more choices, and noise level not intimate given the large number of seats. One of the best restaurants in the area.
