"I arrived at this place around 8:30 PM and was pleasantly surprised that the food was still fresh. The host spoke English, which made everything easier. It's an all-you-can-eat spot specializing in steaks, and while they offer only a few cuts, all of them are excellent. However, the sushi section was a bit disappointing in comparison. It was around 145 reals per person excluding drinks."

"This was a buffet-style restaurant, the food was great, have a large variety of desserts. The staff was accommodating especially because of language differences, however, if you download the Portuguese translator you will be fine."
