Sadly, my former favorite Brazilian steakhouse Caro de Boi has closed, so my friends and I thought we'd give this place a try. We were VERY disappointed! The first meats we got were overcooked (very well done!), and after asking several different people we finally got them to bring some that was more rare - it was in fact nearly raw, and very bland. The only exception was the turkey, which was quite tasty. Aside from the marinated brussels sprouts which were very tasty, the salad bar selections were also very bland and uninteresting. We were brought bread which I was expecting to be the usual basket of cheenies which are made from yucca flour, but instead got a wheat based substitute which since I am wheat intolerant was another disappointment. After the meal we decided to try dessert since they had our favorite papaya cream on the menu. This was the worst part of the whole experience! It looked beautiful.. but whatever chambord substitute was poured over the cream had spoiled and as we took our first bite it began to curdle the cream!! Needless to say this was sent back. Overall the experience was very disappointing and I will not be going back!
Cons: Bland overcooked meat, mediocre salad bar, no chicken hearts, spoiled dessert.
