    📍Rio Brazilian Steakhouse - Quayside ENDLESS amounts of steak, carved right in front of you, placed fresh from the roastery on your plate. It's a literal STEAK buffet with an incredible array of options! You begin with the EXQUISITE salad bar. Just look at the pictures! I had so many delicious options, it was difficult to choose from. You can go as many times as you want, and take as much as you want. When you're at your table, constantly will there be carvery chefs bringing prime steaks, freshly roasted, with many many different cuts. There's even lamb, sausages, marinated chicken wings and roasted pineapple. For 35 quid per person during dinner, this is well worth a celebration. The service here is top-notch.

    This is one of the best places in town to try steaks. It’s a bit pricey but it’s worth it. I was literally stunned by the food served at Rio. They serve selections of well cooked meats that were carved at the table. The waiters were extremely friendly and came to check on us if we need more food. Make sure that your reserve your table before going and make sure your belly is empty before going 😄

    Absolutely fantastic! Really lovely friendly service from everyone. Our waitress was Tatiana and she was wonderful, she went through the process of how the restaurant works and explained to my partner what they could have as they’re coeliac. Almost all the menu was GF so that was great! The meat came out very quickly and was incredible quality. Everything was super tasty and the salad bar was a great addition. Lots to choose from! Didn’t get many photos as I was too busy eating!!

    From the moment we entered to the moment we left, the experience was amazing! The steak was cooked to perfection. They come around with different cuts for you to get. The Brazilian steak was amazing. Raquel, our server, was the perfect server. She explained everything perfectly. It was my sons birthday and they brought out an ice cream platter with Happy birthday on and all the staff sang happy birthday. All in all, it is a perfect restaurant and will be back.

    All you can eat meat. All you can eat salad. Up the stairs at the Tomahawk entrance. I’d recommend booking in advance. Show the green side if you want meat and red if you don’t. Get ready to grip the meat with your tongs if they begin cutting. £27 - £40 depending on what time of week you go. Really good value at £27, acceptable at £40. There’s a non-stop flow of meat coming to your table and they ask you how well you like your meat cooked at the start. You can request cuts or different doneness of meat if nothing is to your liking. The lamb and beef skirt were my favourite. I didn’t rate the sausages or the chicken. They didn’t bring around filet mignon or ribs when we were there. My stomach was a bit rough after and I didn’t sleep to well, and I think it was due to a lot of garlic being used.

    A new style buffet for meat lovers! Staffs are nice and hard working! In order to meet everyone/ every table’s needs as much as possible, the staffs kept coming in and out of the kitchen to deliver different meats to everyone. 💕 because on the same building there’re 2 steakhouse, the entrance is a little confused 😂

    Food and drinks were amazing, I loved the salad bar. Staff were really friendly too. Under 5s eat free and they brought my toddler a plastic plate and small cutlery to use.

    This was some of the best food I've ever eaten! We went for the lunch time menu so it was lovely and relaxed. Do starve your self before hand, you really will need the space 🙂. The staff are all fantastic, friendly and kind. We mentioned it was our anniversary and they presented us with a printed anniversary message, which was very kind and thoughtful. The salad bar - lovely and fresh. Get a little bit of everything just to try, you won't be disappointed. The meat - every single bit was delicious, the beef is all served medium rare, the pork was really tender and you get really good portions, it is definitely worth the money. The service is brilliant as well they really do keep you topped up. You also get a portion of chips which are lovely and some peppercorn sauce. We got cocktails to finsh off; Zombies 🧟‍♀️ also unreal. I've never eaten so much in one go i even forced in one last piece of sirloin it was that nice. Definitely visit if you can and don't eat before you go, best advice i could give.

    A group birthday meal out for one of the lads turned into a great experience. Fast and friendly service gave us a great time. Lovely tasty food all the way. We will definitely be back on another special occasion. The servers were so friendly and happy too.

    I'm a vegetarian but really enjoyed the fish option. Only thing to be wary of is that they come and carve the meat at the table and the options are rare, medium and well done. So there is blood which I didn't much care for. The salad bar was lovely!

    Service was amazing. Salad bar was amazing. The meat was absolutely stunning! Definitely go here if you're in Newcastle, but make sure your belly is completely empty first!
