I wish I could’ve taken better pictures, but I really enjoy this Brazilian steakhouse. I’ve been here twice, and both times I’ve been satisfied with the food. The experience is worth the $70 for such high quality meats! The side dishes are also good, but try not to go to over board since you’re mostly paying for the fancy meats. I had to learn that the hard way the first time. Definitely a yummy and filling dinner!

Visited after a short tour of Alcatraz. We did a an early dinner and it was a quick trip with the local line and perfectly accessible. They had a special summer offering which discounted the meal but the experience was phenomenal. We received attentive service and the food was well cooked and quality. We had visited a handful of Brazilian steakhouses from different states and this one left an impression!

This place was beyond delicious! From the salad bar with fresh paella, arroz, beans, corn, mango salsa, and soooo much more. To the stars of the show, the wonderful multitude of meat cuts from top sirloin, filet Minton, ribs, etc; everything was delicious at this espetus location! I’ve been to Fogo multiple times from CA, to GA, to DC but this Espetus beats them all out in meat quality and salad bar! As far as the drinks, my party ordered multiple passion fruit caipirinha and a passion fruit mojito and they were all strong yet sweet and masked the alcohol well. I left filled to the brim and wondering why I over-ate to such a degree. Will definitely make plans to come back again soon!

Delicious, lots of options of savory bead fresh off the vertical rotisserie they slice off for you. Also, the buffet for non-meat items was full of great options like fried bananas and fresh fruit and vegetables. Whatever that cheese bread is called that they drop off for you is amazing.

It's been about 5 years or so since I last been here. The side dishes have changed but the steaks have not. The service remains the same. Very hospitable.

The Meats are Juicy and delicious, this was place was well kept far as clean restaurant's goes. The service was Pretty elegant, the wait staff helped us figure out what's going on and where every…

I'd give the food a 3.8 here but overall a solid 4. Pretty simple setup, but thrre were some inconsistencies with the various meats. Some too salty, some without much flavor. We enjoyed the sirloin, lamp, and sausage the most. Drinks were good and strong. Ordered Pudim as well but the caramel sauce was burnt. It was taken off the bill though.

The salad selection was great! The service was exceptional. Drinks were on point. The big let down was the meats. They were dry and salty. We had reservations for 5:30pm it felt like we were served the left overs from lunch. The fresh meats starting coming out around 6:45pm. Try going at that time.

Think mass level cruise cuisine. Quality is adequate. Culture diversity in name only. IE: Paella, Seafood and other proteins flavorless and a rubber like consistency. Service was waiters in a factory like Assembly line of meats and chicken. In the 90 min I attended A holiday party chicken entrees We’re presented in a 3 to 1 ratio To meats. I personally requested ribs 3X after their 1 brief appearance. Was told they would Advise and have them brought. Never happened. In conclusion, good place for quantity., The culture aspect iis Completely homogenized and Chain like. (Maybe should be Called Brazilian Sizzler).

The experience was strange, first I was served by a table then we ended up with another waiter, and very little attention. The meats were short, I think it wasn’t enough, there were no seafood. I once went to Napa from the same chain and excellent service. Here they fell short. I would come back maybe not, I have a bad taste in my mouth.

I went here for a company event but only managed to take pictures of the dessert. The dessert was okay but it could have been better. The various cuts of meat were solid but similar to other Brazilian steakhouse restaurant. It’s been a while since I’ve done a Brazilian steakhouse; so, I would want to check other spots out before checking this one out again. The staff was nice and friendly, though.

We were disappointed. Most of the tables appeared to be work groups - men. We were 5 friends. Our friend chose it because she knew that 3 of us had met and lived in Brazil for many years. We were s…

Flavorful food overall with some meat over salted. Service is excellent. However the price, fees, and recommended gratuities are too over the top. Will not come back or recommend to any one.

Brought my team here for holiday lunch (December 2025) there were a total of 35 of us. Paid $65/person only to find out that during weekday lunch there's no Lamb, no shrimp, no fish available for Rodizio (this is available only for weekend dinner Rodizio option), there were bunch of beef options and 2 chicken options. Out of 35 team members 18 did not eat beef due to health/diet or religious restrictions. So more then half the group ate 2 different types of chicken for $65/person. If I would have known that they did not provide Lamb, shrimp or fish options during weekday lunch options I would have gone to Galpao De Gaucho. Since they provide all those meats for $70/person.

My kids took me here for Mothers Day 2025. I was surprised and excited. I’ve been to the one in San Mateo and loved it. But I was so disappointed. We were a party of 9, No one came to our table for at least 30 minutes. The carvers never came to our table until I complained about it. And there was one in particular that seemed like he refused to come to our table. The supervisor of the carvers came to our table and apologized and he made sure the carvers made it to our table. But that only lasted for a little while. I hate when people make it always about ethnicity, but in this case I definitely felt like that was the issue. Should have stuck to the San Mateo establishment

What happened to this place !\nService , food , quality went down. \nThe San Mateo location is way better. \nI ordered a coffee and it was served warm. I asked for another and the server argued wit…

Do not recommend! All the meat is well overcooked. Most Brazilian steakhouses offer different temperatures but this one does not, all they serve is well meat that has clearly sat and was reheated. We came for dinner and left within 20 minutes. Will not be back
