  1. The newest addition to the culinary scene in little old South River. My first experience here I decided to go with the full rodizio & buffet. The menu is kept simple and pretty easy to understand. There is a full bar and all baking is done onsite.

    I've sampled a few appetizers throughout the evening and I tried the shrimp & garlic, picodinho mixto (pork cubes mixed with un-breaded calamari, etc etc). The calamari was the best of the three that I sampled.

    The Sangria needs work. Truly not the best in town.  I could not say it was in my top 5. Not enough ice in this pitcher and one specific alcohol jumped out and slapped you in the face. I had to stop drinking after the first glass or I would not be able to walk.

    I was a little disappointed in some of the rodizio. Out of the 14 options, I only made it to about 8 or so. The first choice was the sausage. Very tasty and cooked well. The second option was the chicken leg. I did not like the fact it was dry and over seasoned. The third choice was chicken wrapped in bacon, again very dry. I was not enjoying the experience.  

    Finally, I was able to get a great choice of meat (picanha) that I can enjoy and was cooked just right. Hopefully this was just a fluke this evening. When I return I want to try a different dish, it will take me awhile before I go back for the rodizio. Not everyone can master great rodizio. This will take some time. On a side note their buffet was delicious. The food there was well prepared. I can say I did not leave hungry.

    Service was up to speed and there was experience amongst the staff.

    3 Stars at best.

  2. Very good to excellent food with great service.  I also like that it is a more modern looking atmosphere that the usual stuffy looking old fashioned Portuguese restaurants of my earlier years.  

    I had the rodizio and although I don't remember exactly what I had, there were several major hits.  Some of the items were a little too salty but most were not.  I have been to rodizios where every item was over-salted so this was a pleasant surprise.

    Those that ordered menu items (paella, mariscada) were also very happy.

    Our servers were terrific.  Every time we asked, they brought us more of the Spanish fried potatoes, at no additional charge in this case.  

    They were also there for everything else we needed and gave great explanations of the food we were eating.  

    The Rodizio seemed very reasonable at $25 per person.  A complimentary salad is served with all meals.
