My mother was dying to visit this place,so we went today for a family sunday lunch,restaurant was full (not surprising on a sunday)we had to wait ok not big deal,the waitress came asking us 3 times if we wanted a table,anyway finally we got a table! We waited a long time to make an order there was no ”House Welcome Entree ”,not even a “Glass Of Water”,we decided to skip the “Appetizers “and ordered the main course to eat faster we were very very hungry ,no “Alcohol Beverages”(not cool)so we ordered “Juice”and the order came incomplete in “Plastic Cups”so we had to wait to get the missing ones,longtime for the order to come out!we understand the place was busy!but the cust service over there “Lives In The Moon”,my waitress was :sweet ,friendly and nice,but at the end of the day cust service rules the business ,cust service in this restaurant is very poor and inattentive. Finally I got my plate but I couldn’t eat because first I didn’t have the “Silverware” to do so,and second the rest of the food was not ready so I waited till everybody got their plate and “Silverware”,finally we asked for the check waited longtime for that too we got charged for a dessert and a water that never got to the table so my mom had to wait again for the dessert and the water and we finally took it home,food was delicious and fresh!no doubt nor question about it indeed, presentation was good,except for 2 of the “salads plate” that were broken on the top edge ,restaurant is comfortable and nice,staff is friendly no question about it!but the cust service sucks!this review is not done to offend nor disrespect anybody,sorry but I’m not coming back.

The food was amazing, the staff friendly and professional, and the ambience was like being back home. I love a well prepared Churrasco that is cooked properly and delivers flavor and the right amount of juiciness. Let me say first the Churrasco smelled divine, it did not over power but just the right amount to get your mouth watering. As you cut in to the steak it’s the perfect level of tenderness to get you excited to taste the meat and once you take the first bit, it’s like a little bit of heaven in your mouth. The best part is the steak delivers from beginning to end. Definitely on the must redo list.

First time visiting was not aware they only take cash. Luckily there is an ATM on site. The server we had was not very knowledgeable as far as the menu. The server was not able to answer questions regarding certain meals. Tap water is not an available option, considering NY has some of the best water, If you wanted water you had to purchase a bottle. Also no diet sod available. No bread or anything offered to snack on while you waited for your food. Our meal took 1 hour. It did come out hot which was great. The food was very tasty.
