Rafain Churrascaria Show — Restaurant in Região Geográfica Imediata de Foz do Iguaçu

I had high expectations for the show at Churrascaria Rafain, but unfortunately, the experience fell short. Despite the undeniable talent of the performers, some aspects compromised the presentation. One of the artists, responsible for the drums, clearly seemed unmotivated, even yawning during the performance — which took away some of the magic of the moment.

On the other hand, the opening welcome, celebrating the various nationalities present, was a special and much-appreciated touch. However, the host interrupted the show after every performance, speaking only in Portuguese, which disrupted the flow and gave the show a disorganized feel, reminiscent of 1980s circus productions.

Another downside was the screen positioned at the top of the stage. Not only was it low resolution, but it also interfered with photos and added no value to the performance.

That said, I must praise the food and service, which were impeccable and truly stood out. However, for the show itself, I wouldn’t recommend the experience to anyone. A revamp is necessary to meet the expectations of such a diverse and...

Heads up, this is one full-blown tourist trap! Avoid it like the plague!

Seems as though their main reason for being is to cater to tour busses while purporting to provide a true Churrascarria (epic fail) and a floor show highlighting various countries of South America (mind-numbingly loud and went on for a little over 2 hours).

As someone else mentioned. it's much closer to a Golden Corral than a true Churrascaria. Food didn't come to you, you went to it, then back to long, cramped, communal tables. Waiters brought drinks and water (all of which are extra charge) except when they couldn't be bothered. And honestly, I've had much better meat at Golden Corral, Hometown Buffet and the like. At the end of the 'show' the waiters suddenly appear to collect for drinks, which forces everyone to wait even longer to get out.

How bad was the show? About a half an hour in I was forced to make a tough decision - stay inside where it was cool, but painfully and unceasingly loud. Or go outside into the heat, humidity and mosquitoes.

The Rafain Show in Foz do Iguaçu is a lively and entertaining cultural experience. Combining a buffet-style dinner with a colorful musical performance, the show highlights the rich diversity of Latin American culture. The performers showcase traditional music and dance from countries like Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and others, making it a vibrant celebration of the region’s heritage.

The buffet offers a wide variety of dishes, including Brazilian barbecue and international options, ensuring there’s something for everyone. While the food is decent, the real highlight is the energy and skill of the performers. The costumes, live music, and dance routines create a festive and immersive atmosphere.

Though it can feel a bit touristy, the Rafain Show is a fun way to spend an evening, especially for those looking to experience the cultural richness of South America in one place. It’s a perfect complement to a trip to...
