I don't know where to start. I suppose with the bad stuff which is the MOST I have ever experienced at a restaurant. We wanted to go to a churrascaria, which we've been to many times & know exactly what to expect. This place is AT BEST a wannabe churrascaria, run by, what I think are Arabs instead as I did not see a Portuguese person working there. Full disclosure, for the price, on their website listed as $60/per person, but in reality, they charge $65/per person, FYI, I am comparing them with Texas du Brazil which, depending on location, is still one of the best I've experienced. The BAD stuff: it started with my question, where is the buffet for the sides, as advertised on their website, answered, "We do not have a buffet as we don't have space. We bring you as many sides as you need so we don't waste them." Their sides ONLY included rice, mashed potatoes, iceberg salad, red beet, french & sweet fries, that's it! Now to the "meats". When I asked, I was told there were 14 kinds, in reality, they served at most 8 & all low grade, definitely NOT worth $65. $30 at best!!! I wouldn't recommend this place to my mother-in-law, who was with us, incidentally. You do get full here, don't get me wrong, but it's not worth the $65 & you're not eating any quality meats, maybe 1 or 2 of the 8 kinds/types. There are no women servers or workers, ONLY Arab men. The place felt like conmen ran it. The servers, with a couple of exceptions, looked very criminal. The non-alcoholic drinks were $8 (expensive?), & a pint of beer was $10. You judge. Now to the "dance show". The two samba/Brazilian dancers came close when we got there, maybe around 830, the music started blaring, they started dancing, so-so, nothing wow, I've seen samba dancers a few times, got people to dance, it all lasted half an hour & they left!!! I have been to restaurants where they advertise "live music", "live shows", usually the show goes for a while, half an hour or so, then they take a break, then they come again & so on ALL NIGHT!!! NOT here. They're also probably "trying to save money" on that experience. SO!!! I wouldn't go here for the meats, I wouldn't go here for the show. Although we sat inside, the patio outside looked nice. I would maybe JUST go to get drinks outside, although you can probably find much better & nicer places in Montreal. THE GOOD STUFF: NOTHING!
Great food & great service! As a Brazilian, I missed the seasoning specific from the Brazilian churrascarias (more salt for example) & how the server cuts the meats (sometimes too thick). But in all, a good restaurant to try different cuts of meat with nice music & good vibes. Would recommend for both gringos & Brazilians.
The food was amazing & the service even better, the people were really nice & helpful, the atmosphere was real one of a kind especially here in Canada with the music dancing & the way they serve their food (which the quantity they serve is amazing they rly don't skimp on the amount!!!) the meats were succulent & juicy & came in some different types of ways (garlic cheese...Ect) the sides were also surprisingly tasty & varied but also very cultural & different from what you're used to eating here but that didn't take away from the fact that they were delicious & i kept asking for more even when I was full. The beautiful & nice Soraya was also one of the many reasons I'd like to come back she was very sweet & very helpful & made us feel like we were at home. The drinks were also outstanding & left me speechless this is definitely a place I would recommend to my friends 10/10!!!!! Thank you very much Soraya! 🇧🇷 💚💛💙💛💚🇧🇷
