Brasil Tropical Restaurant — Restaurant in Virginia

What an great little hidden spot. The owner was on site and as she explained to us the features of the restaurant someone was coming out cleaning the steam trays. I will say the reason why I love this spot it’s not large, and the colors are the same as I had chooser for Ty’s Internet Café which use to be located inside Rising Son’s Computers & Electronics. Even down to the Black painted ceilings. I love the decor and everything has a very clean mom and pop style vibe. Think miniature Texas de Brazil.

It’s not over powering with a corporatety feel. It’s real cosy.

NOW the food... OMG 😮 meat everywhere in everything. Not too much so if you are a vegetarian you can dodge it and just go for the rest. Yes, it’s a buffet Monday and Tuesdays. Wednesday through Sunday it’s endless meats that are on skewers.

Everyday the owners says the menu is different. This will always set small businesses apart from the big guys. In conclusion Customer service = 5⭐️

Cleanliness = 4.5 ⭐️ (her little boy after school came from the door directly behind the counter into the freezer... didn’t like that. Not sanitary)

Variety = 4 ⭐️ limited options but enough to keep you full no dessert included.

Taste = 4.5 star some things are a little salty, but they might be if they was there meats in saltwater.

Frequency = 2x a month it’s affordable and it’s a buffet. All you can eat. AYCE....

We were looking forward to trying this new place after seeing the photos and reviews on Google. I am slightly disappointed with number of items offered for the buffet. For $16 per person with tax, there are only two meat dishes. Sadly, the appetizers and desserts are not included in the buffet. The chicken cooked with okra did not have much flavor, there was no breast meat. Overall, the food was well prepared. The place feels very clean. I would give five stars for the service. Our waitress Sophie was the only person spoke English, she went above and beyond. It was definitely a good experience, just wished they have offered more for the price of the buffet. Please check their hours before you go there for dinner. I believe they open very early in the morning about 7:30 AM and close either...

I grew up in Brazil and this little place has some of the most authentic cuisine in the area. It's not fancy by any means but you will be able to fulfill most of your cravings here, and at a reasonable price too! They recently began offering the famous rodizio (all-you-can-eat grilled meats) for about half the price of your typical Brazilian steakhouse. They have feijoada on the dinner buffet and you can also order Brazilian style burgers and sandwiches (x-tudo, x-picanha, x-frango). What topped it off for me though was the selection of tropical fruit smoothies and juices that are so hard to find in most places (my personal favorite is acerola). A number of Brazilian grocery items are also offered in-store. I will...
