Best Grills in Brazil

Fantastic lunch experience, amazing selection of salads and sides and non stop meat circling the restaurant. Great service from all staff but stand out from Bahia who stopped for a chat and a photo with us. Highly recommend!

Maitre Alexandre e paulinho were super nice (our main servers and helpers) so much meat you would explode from happiness. The picanha com quiejo was awesome. Beer was ice cold. About 20 min from morumbi stadium.
Great food and service. Fun time with whole family.

Good service but some food still lacking of improvement. The salmon with passion fruit wasn’t so soft. The salad buffet is missing some grains like almonds, nuts etc

Léo was an AMAZING host, much more than just a “waiter”. He really kept an eye on everything, continually double checked to be sure we were well taken care of, very caring and engaging. His English was a big plus for my group of 20 Americans!
Silvano was also SUPER helpful, friendly and cooperative. He went out of his way to get us everything we wanted.
Congratulations to them BOTH!’

Elizandro Wars very Nice with usssss and The Food was amazing

Meat is decent. Especially Picante was tasty!
I liked the fried plantain.
Their coconut flan cake was the best!

A really enjoyable experience. From the moment we sat down, the meat options were coming to us thick and fast that our plates were full of food within a few minutes! Great variety of meat, some tastier than others, and a fantastic array of salads.

Note: We arrived close to 1pm on a Friday and were told that the wait would be 1.5-2 hours. We opted to come back and got seated within 10 minutes.

Existe uma festa nesse bar chamado Churras do Fiofó, as duas vezes que fui me cobraram por bebidas que não bebi. Vc também pede para não sair nas fotos e mesmo assim tiram e publicam. Desrespeitoso.

Barbacoa is an absolute gem in São Paulo! I was blown away by the incredible dining experience they offer. From the moment walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the stage for an unforgettable meal.

The star of the show, undoubtedly, was the mouthwatering selection of meats. Every cut was expertly grilled to perfection, bursting with flavor and tenderness. However, the lamb stole the spotlight with its exquisite taste and succulent texture - a true highlight of the meal!

Beyond the phenomenal food, the service at Barbacoa was impeccable. The passadores were attentive and friendly, ensuring that our dining experience was nothing short of exceptional. Their knowledge of the meats and willingness to accommodate preferences truly enhanced our evening.

To complement the outstanding cuisine, Barbacoa boasts an impressive wine selection. I indulged in a glass (or two) of their exquisite wines, perfectly pairing with the savory meats and enhancing the overall dining experience.

Best meat place I have ever been to in my life. I don’t think I’ll ever eat lamb as tasty as I tried last night. If you have a chance to go with good friends / colleagues, it is worth the wait to get in

Drinks e espetos são maravilhosos, frequento bastante, ambiente bom para relaxar. Vale a pena conhecer.

Really enjoyed everything about this experience. I felt like the staff all knew me and the food was very tasty.

The best cut of meat in the entire city and country. The food is just the right flavor and it is the best meat in the world. People say about waigu meat... i would say this is quite better.....

The Florentine steak was simply mouthwatering and intoxicatingly freaking delicious! Well worth your money.

O serviço é excelente, mas o noix de entrecote estava duro e com nervos.
O buffet de saladas é excelente e tem muita variedade, mas a experiência completa não valeu o preço que foi cobrado.
Já comi entrecote em outros restaurantes com a mesma faixa de preço e dava pra cortar de colher, mas nesse estava difícil de cortar com a faca.

Absolute perfection, claims mi hijo, and I have to agree with him. The food was exceptional, the theater of the serving was entertaining, and the buffet was ridiculously decadent.

In fact, mi hijo filled an entire plate with caviar and let most of it sit on the table. He excused himself mid-meal for a #2, then came back and we finished our meal with more meat, then cheese, then desert.

This was in our top meals of all time! Obrigado, Barbarcoa!

Fui no pré carnaval e a entrada vinha com uma bebida que só véio depois de muita conversa. Rolou estresse. O serviço no dia estava meio bagunçado. Voltarei para ver se a segunda experiência será diferente. Comida boa e um ambiente muito bonito. O serviço deixou a desejar.

At one point last night I started refilling my glass with water and a man magically appeared and took the water out of my hand and did it for me.

This place is wild, I wish all meals were like this.

Fizemos o pedido no iFood para entregar no hotel, que era bem próximo ao shopping. A entrega foi bem rápida (cerca de 30 minutos). Chegou tudo quentinho e muito bem embalado. A comida é bem gostosinha e achei o preço justo. Pedimos um bife de chorizo que vem com três acompanhamentos à sua escolha, pedimos o arroz birobiro, vinagrete e uma salada. E também pedimos uma porção de pastelzinho de carne. Vem super bem servido pra um casal e até sobrou um pouco de comida. A conta ficou em 150 reais.

Fui em uma sexta churrasfiofo e não gostei do atendimento: demorou o espetando, a cerveja e o drink que pedimos foi um dos piores ué já tomei. Não voltaremos mais nesse local.

My expectations of this place were not extremely high. Everything else at the time was closed and this was a last option.

Food ended up being really good. I mean we're talking casual here not some fine dining but really solid... Exceeded my expectations.

Make sure you try the Feijoada (black beans and ham)!!

fui em um sexta ao devo local e alugado para outro fipo de público, ambiente e muito aconchegante,música boa, espero sem comentário de tão bom, local fica lotado público bem alegre , se quiser mesa e senta precisa reservar ou chegar antes das 19horaa ... local. muito bom

Giving 5 stars on everything.
The food is just fantastic, probably the best lamn i have had in my life and i have had alot of lamb.
the service was fantastic as well, our whaiter was amazing and intuitive. He knew when we had food on our plate that you were not going to eat, and exchanged the plate with a new one without asking.

From what i understand, this place is one of the best Barbacoa places in all Sao Paulo, so this is amust if you are visiting SP.

One of the best steak restaurants in Brazil. Go, sit, eat, drink... enjoy!

This churrasco restaurant is cool. You get to wait so long for water, it's like a game! They have lots of food, but getting water is the real challenge. It comes so slowly, like it's on a holiday! Next time, I'll bring my own water. Maybe even enough to share the whole place.

Food was ok, salad bar was great and lots of options, meat (as there's no rodizio) was a bit rough and chewy (not the best). Service was great

Great food, delicious, tasty and with a lot of variety, the service was impeccable! I will come back for sure

Super dicaaaaas

Wonderful place! Very expensive but it's worth it.
I highly recommend.

Usually I don’t waste my time writing reviews, specially in 3rd world countrie’s restaurant. But varanda made me reconsider it. Prob the worst fast food meal I have ever had in my life. Worst than any food court in a poor people outlet mall in the middle of nowhere Louisiana. Horrible presentation, horrible taste, smallest portion I have ever had! We literally went straight to another restaurant to get stuffed. Over $100 (US dollars) per person for that garbage????? I’ve heard good things about them and kinda forced my husband to try. Omg! Biggest regret in my whole life. NEVER AGAIN

This is the single worst restaurant I've been to in the country of Brazil. The experience was nothing short of poor. Prices are absurdly high for garbage.

No domingo, 5.3.23, fui ao Templo da Carne com minha esposa e uma amiga de nossa filha. O nome Bassi garante qualidade em todos os aspectos. Tivemos uma recepção amigável e já estávamos preparados para uma espera de 40 minutos, que passou rapidamente por cima de uma cerveja e deliciosas salsichas defumadas - e na realidade eram felizmente apenas 20. Como estávamos esperando perto da cozinha, olhei para dentro e fui imediatamente convidado a vê-la. Na sala principal, que é confortavelmente elegante, ficamos agradavelmente impressionados com o ambiente tranqüilo, sem música alta intrusiva como em muitos outros restaurantes. O menu oferece uma variedade de excelentes pratos, escolhemos uma pincanha inteira que foi servida no espeto, uma a uma fatia exatamente como solicitada. As bebidas também são muito boas, seja uma cerveja de barril ou uma garrafa de Malbec, todas impecáveis, incluindo meu Martini Seco. Uma menção especial vai para os garçons, que foram, sem exceção, extremamente competentes e educados, pelo que o restaurante só pode ser parabenizado. Fomos servidos por Edenaldo e nos sentimos muito bem atendidos. Em breve teremos visitantes de Bogotá e já anunciamos aos nossos amigos que visitaremos este restaurante com eles. E outro ponto positivo é que há um estacionamento com manobrista mesmo ao lado. Ficamos muito satisfeitos e podemos recomendar este restaurante sem reservas.

Am Sonntag, den 5.3.23, war ich mit meiner Frau und einer Freundin unserer Tochter im Temple des Fleisches. Der Name Bassi bürgt für Qualität in jeder Hinsicht. Wir wurden freundlich empfangen und richteten uns schon auf eine Wartezeit von 40 Minuten ein, die bei einem Bier und köstlichen geräucherten kleinen Würstchen schnell vergingen - und Wirklichkeit waren es nur dann auch nur 20. Da wir dicht an der Küche warteten, blickte ich hinein und wurde gleich eingeladen, sie zu besichtigen. Im Hauptraum, der gemütlich elegant ist, fiel uns angenehm die ruhige Umgebung auf, keine laute aufdringliche Musik wie in vielen anderen Restaurants. Die Speisekarte bietet eine Vielzahl von exzellenten Speisen an, wir wählten eine ganze Pincanha, die genau wie gewünscht nach und nach am Spieß serviert wurde. Die Getränke ebenfalls sehr gut, ob ein gezapftes Bier oder eine Flasche Malbec, alles tadellos, auch mein Dry Martini. Ganz besondere Erwähnung verdienen die Ober, die ausnahmslos extrem kompetent und höflich waren, dazu kann man das Restaurant nur beglückwünschen. Wir wurden von Edenaldo bedient und haben uns bei ihm sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt. Wir haben demnächst Besuch aus Bogotá und haben unseren Freunden schon angekündigt, dass wir mit ihnen dieses Restaurant besuchen werden. Und ein weiterer Pluspunkt, direkt daneben ist eine Parkmöglichkeit mit Valet Parking. Wir waren sehr zufrieden und können dieses Restaurant vorbehaltslos empfehlen.

It is a famous BBQ all you can eat place recommended by our local friends. The buffet was very nice, however the meat could've been better. Some of the pieces were too fatty and didn't taste very nice. I was expecting much more.

Beautiful rustic place with good service.
The meat is just fantastic! Living in Brazil for 3 years I am just sad that I only found this place just now.
It’s pricey, but worth every penny. We’ll be back soon!

Great tasting steaks and I've been to many steak houses in the USA. This is the bomb! And considering the prices , omg if i lived here I would be their weekly loyal customer. Hands down yummy tender cuts that won't break your wallet. Great service and attentive waiters. Great food! 👍

Amazing food.
Great value. It is cheaper than the average steakhouse.
Restrooms are not the cleanest.
Installations are beautiful. Lots of granite and marble.
Servers are very friendly. There were not enough of them though.
The salad bar is very good.
The meats were very good. The cuts are standard, but the seasoning is special.
Recommend it greatly!

Update:

I have been visiting this location a few times now, and am impressed by the staff. We were served by Leo. What an amazing person. He was SUPER attentive to everyone at the table, as well giving us special little treats such as "arroz carretero". We loved his service and the attention. We will definitely continue to come back. Thanks Leo!!!!!

Inconsistent cooked meat and it’s ala cart (not your typical Brazilian steakhouse buffet). You order the meat and the salad bar is included. I have been eating meat everyday in Brazil for a month. This was the only restaurant that gave me a piece of dry overcooked ribeye. A waste of meat and a waste of money. The problem here I think is the inconsistency in the kitchen. We got the ribeye which was embarrassingly bad. But we also got the rack of lamb and that was absolute perfection. Flavors are amazing on both. The service here is top notch. The salad all you can eat is a nice spread but nothing really stand out as amazing. We also got creamed spinach(great), mashed potato(ok), and French fries(not fresh) bread is not complimentary here, decline if you do not want to pay bread (not fresh) charge per person. The sauces that came with the bread basket was excellent but what’s the point if the bread is not fresh. The sausage was very delicious here, worth the small charge. I had incredible ribeye and rack of lamb at “Vicolo Nostro” which was nearby. For the same amount of money, I would recommend Vicolo Nostro for meat instead of Barbacoa. And for the same amount of money I would recommend eating at a all you can eat Churrascaria like fogo so your experience is not ruined by ordering Ala carte with overcooked and dry meat. Because in Ala carte you are stuck with it instead of having more options in a buffet Churrascaria. Even “coco bambu” nearby is better meat than this dry overcooked ribeye. This was the first restaurant in a month of eating different restaurants in Brazil that I did not enjoy. Would not recommend.

Great place for lunch if you are visiting Morumbi mall. First class service, the tables were private and the meat was cooked to perfection. We ordered the rib eye steak and the fraldinha (skirt steak)

Very good high price steak house with amazing meat quality and special beef cuts like beef short ribs. Professional service and nice ambience. Long job beef ribs and special meals from skewer looked very tempting.

unsure what people complain about.. 😤🙄

We spent a fantastic evening here 🥳🙏. Great food, very kind/attentive staff, live music piano 🎹 and singing, top 🔝 wine 🍷, nice ambiance green/lights. Thanks for the wonderful evening 🥳🙏🍀

Good service, good food, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend the grilled vegetables. Perfectly seasoned and well cooked. The meat was fantastic. It wasn't dry and a great complement to the potatoes.

A very good choice of Uruguayan restaurant in a good São Paulo area. I tried the fillet with red wine and pure and it was truly amazing. Also very good selection of Latin America beers and wines. Highly recommend it!

OMG.
Steak I had was ammmmmazing
I will definitely go again before I leave Sao Paulo.
I ordered porterhouse tomahawk and wagyu
This three choices were reAaaally good for 5 people to enjoy enough.
And you should order grilled vegetables as well.
Even carrot was good.
Best steak place till now for me in Sao paulo
Expensive but worth it for real

Really nice food - good quality - friendly staff. Sehr leckeres Essen mit sehr guter Qualität. Freundliche und sehr aufmerksame Mitarbeiter. Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Eine Reservierung war nicht notwendig.

From start to finish, this place was amazing! The service was incredible and all the employees were super friendly and accommodating. They really pour on the food and you get your moneys worth here. Meat choices and all the extras were outstanding. Strong recommend while in Sao Paolo.

Wow! What a wonderful experience. The food is amazing. The wine selection is fantastic and everyone on the staff is friendly and nice. They treated me like family. I will come here many times when I visit Brazil to try many more things on the delicious menu. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Oh the Steak Tartar was the best I have ever had!!!

It’s worth it for the NB Steak! What a delicious piece.
Definitely recommend if you like meat and eat considerably. It’s R$188/person, so make it worth it hahaha.

Very good food

The place aspires to be a fancy rodízio. As far as the grilled meat goes, it is just average, both in offering and preparation. There is one cut that is the house specialty, dubbed Steak NB, which was outstanding; however, on a repeat order, it came out humdrum as the others. Regression to the mean, I guess. Perhaps as a consequence of the place's pretentiousness, the waiters are gentle busybodies that cannot pass by your table without doing something. I find it infuriating the repeated attempts at pouring from an open bottle.

Yet another restaurant in San Paulo that didn’t disappoint. Outstanding service, unique dishes, extensive wine list and steaks grilled to perfection. Restaurant has a great selection of meat and seafood dishes from traditional to internationally recognized ones. English menu is available. Desserts deserve their own review. My friends and I really enjoyed our time here and would love to come back some time

Good.

Amazing delivery at home, great quality, good flavor, and fast customer service. I had never been to the actual restaurant but always wanted to try it. Had it delivered at home and it was great, my favorite is the burger and fries. I order many burgers for delivery, this one tastes great an the fries are the best, but I wish they would offer more burger options like toppings. But alas they are not a burger place. Will definitely continue to order from here. My husband usually has the grilled breast or salmon. Pudim and churros are a nice dessert.

Easy place to grab food quick.

Wow!

Excellent setting. Great service. Proven food choices.

Food was great. Not busy at all. Staff doesn’t speak much English. If you order the meat with a group they can serve it split up in indivisible portions for you.

Meats were great, wouldn’t recommend the Caesar salad.

Great food and very friendly staff. Prices aren’t low, but it’s totally worth it.
The steaks were finely prepared, perfectly done.
If you want to have full dinner, expect prices at around R$250 - R$300 per person. Wines have regular restaurant price (not cheap at all).

Top top

More upscale than other Brazilian steakhouses, a fine dining experience. Servers are highly attentive, good selection of wine and beer, and a full range of meats.

The food is good, but the restroom is not so clean. Attendees are very nice.

Every good food and the workers are very sweet. They give you attention from the very beginning up to the very end of the experience. Meet always with the perfect amount of salt and pepper, side dishes very flavorful and amazing desserts. The space is modern and the music is not too high. I hardly recommend NB

Went there again at the repaginated restaurant
Sophisticated, friendly, delicious food and for sure one of the best steaks in town.
Thanks to the staff:
Jorge, Heraldo, Samuel, Alex, Gustavo, Fernando, Diego and Dilermando.

Excellent place for fishes and barbecue in Ubatuba.

Such great meat. Everything here is delicious.

It's not like it's not good. It's just way overpriced. You can have a good meat in another place, paying only the half of the price.

The food is very good. Meat is awesome, but I went for a group dinner and the side dishes were a bit scattered

After a couple of years it’s still my favorite meat restaurant. Of course you can go to cheaper places, with probably the same quality, but the whole experience is great. And lately the tradicional “churrascarias” are focusing more on the buffet than the meat that it’s nice to go to a place where the meat is the main star

Outstanding service that won't break the bank. Salad bar was wonderful with many great choices including sushi. The steakhouse main feature is the way the meat is brought to the table by traditional Brazilian dressed Gouchos. They are fast and very attentive. Evening ended with local deserts and drinks. Great time had by all.

Very good place for lunch. I went for a business lunch. The staff was very friendly and the food was amazing. The cost is in line with the quality of service you get. Around $50USD per person without drinks for lunch. Will go back.
