Not your average Churrascaria, terrible service! 5/12/2007

Thanksgiving dinner for four! We made sure to call for reservations, we were advised that the early bird special was still running for Thanksgiving, and we would also have the choice of the Thanksgiving buffet should we like... We arrived at 5pm to find the only choice was the thanksgiving special, of which there was no $5 reduction in price, but an additional $15/plate, and further the restaurant would only be open another hour. We stayed for dinner, knowing finding another restaurant on Thanksgiving would be fruitless. The staff did not circulate much more food in the remaining hour they were open, neither did the staff replenish the buffet as we had been advised they would do? The Manager was terrible and did nothing to improve our situation; instead he spent his evening smoking cigarettes outside the front entrance socializing with friends. I notice that most of the quality reviews listed here are from people that haven't eaten at a churrascaria... I search out churrascarias with a passion for quality. This place was the worst service of any churrascaria I've been to, the cost was average (if I hadn't been gouged by the Thanksgiving special), the food was below average, and the service was abysmal. One server splattered au jus, which he cleaned up using my napkin, which he returned to my lap after cleaning up his mess, I'm thinking "is this guy for real, or have I just fallen into the worst churrascaria in the world?" Don't waste your time eating at this churrascaria - You're better off trying any other location. I prefer San Diego's 'Rei DO Gado Restaurant'. A new one just opened in San Francisco that shows some promise too, ?Espetus?. Pros: Meat Cons: Service, selection, quality more
