Has anyone been to one of these places of pure win and undeniable awesomeness?

Here is a basic summary:

You pay to get in. It is a buffet.
There is a salad bar, with things such as shitake mushrooms, sushi, fresh shrimp... all that lovely stuff.

And then, you get a little card on your table. One side of this card is red, which means stop. The other side is green, which means go. Traveling around the resteraunt are the waiters, carrying fresh, sizzling skewers of meat. (And grilled pinneaple, which is apparently very good) When your card is green-side up, they all rush to your table in an attempt to give you whichever type of meat is on their skewer. When it is red, they leave you in peace to eat your meat.

They also carry a large selection of South American beers (which are pretty good), and serve mashed potatoes, and honey-cake type things at your table. (Which you shouldn't eat, as it means less meat, but still).

Anyway, they have 20+ types of meat travelling around the resteraunt at one time, including Filet Mignon, Lamb, numerous types of pork... oh man it is amazing.

I am going there on vacation in a week. And afterwords we are going to Margaritaville to drink margaritas on the beach.

Brazilian Steakhouse's are amazing. That is all.

they are the awesome it must be said. cuts of meat that are simply amazing.

though you shouldn't drink margaritas, that's mexican.

go for some caipirinhas instead.

Overall on my trip to Brazil I put on about 8 pounds. And it was GREAT

Just read the info on the site and it sounds amazing. I wonder if there's one somewhere in California...

I agree with everything stated above.
Brazilian steakhouses are to meat what Bruce Lee was to nunchucks.
Caipairinahs are salvation in a glass with a little paper umbrella.
Grilled pineapple, usually rolled in cinnamon, is worth not having that sixth brazilian sausage when the dude comes around for the upteenth time.


- Abyss, wants to be rolled in cinnamon and buried there.
