Food was just okay. The one thing that annoyed me was the skewer folks with the meat kept making my friends reach across my plate or drink to grab food which got old 😒 "salad bar" was kind of lacking and of the hot things I was willing to try only the mashed potatoes were any good. The polenta sticks were stale and collard greens were super salty. For the money I'd expect they would train the skewer folks better since that's the main attraction. Our waitress was really nice but I probably wouldn't return 😕

Amazing place for some incredible food! We hadn’t been seated for more than a couple minutes before the meats started coming quite fast! We had at least a dozen different kinds of meat served to us over the course of our meal and they were almost all top notch! Excellent steaks, some of the best ham I’ve ever had, good chicken, and more. Quite a large salad bar as well. We finished up with some of their delicious desserts. It was price, but we thought it was well worth it!

We had a great experience!! We visited from out of town and loved this place! It’s a short walk from hotels in the area. We were seated quickly in a large dining room. Our server Herb was fantastic!! He told us all about the restaurant and how the meats work. The salad bar has a huge selection of cold salads and soups. Once the green block is flipped up the meat started coming. We were told there were 15 or so different meats which was awesome. All the meats we tried were awesome. The pineapple was a very good addition! For dessert we had cheesecake and creme brûlée. Pricing is not bad and the kids price is awesome!

We had a great time having an early dinner here. Lots of good food at both the salad bar and the food that was brought to the table. I would recommend getting the full service rather than just the salad bar as the food that was brought to the table was definitely the highlight. If you're a fan of creme brulee save room for dessert as it was very enjoyable. We went early on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't busy at all. We were seated right away. Service was very good and quick. We definitely enjoyed our time here and we'll be back next time we are in Columbus and have something to celebrate. Additionally, the location is prime being right next to nationwide arena. Lots of parking in that area and other things to do if you were to make an afternoon or day of it. Only downsides were that the floor was fairly sticky and the food in general is very salty.

Having been to Brazil several times, this place was a treat! I love the Brazilian churrascaria style - great tasting meat on skewers. The flavor and options were great. The "salad" bar was awesome as well. A couple of my favorites there were the greens and quail eggs. Service was great - friendly & helpful. Eating here will be much more than a meal, it'll be an experience.

Some meats were burnt to a dry, crumbly crisp, some were basically raw, all were barely seasoned. My wife noticed that (at least visibly) they seemed to have only one person responsible for all meat skewer prep and cooking, which seems impossible to do with any level of quality control - there's just no way one person can prep and cook 10 completely different meats all at once. Service was fine, but even great service couldn't save meats that were barely edible.

OMG ! How this place is rated so high I have no idea. I'm married to a Brazilian so I have been eating picanha for the past 15 years. I'm from South Florida where they have some great rodizio places. This isn't one of them. The picanha had that old meat taste. None of the meats were any good. I don't want to get too snobby but there is an art to the way the meat is cooked and sliced. Some rodizio restaurants actually recruit high level servers and cooks from Brazil and are able to bring them over on work visas because they are able to prove to USCIS that these employees are instrumental in the quality of the food. I digress only to say, none of these servers have had any training. How does the manager let this guy walk around with his hair like this? That's crazy and indefensible.

It was a decent restaurant. Not many side options, the meat was pretty good. The drinks were a little pricey but delicious. They definitely keep the food coming, so your plate is never empty. The desserts are not part of the meal and it is a separate charge, which I thought was already included, so that was a little disappointing. Overall it was a bit pricey, but I reccomend it for a once in a whole thing to treat yourself or for an important celebration. The waiters/waitresses are very nice and check up on you often, so be prepared to leave a decent tip.

I went here with my husband and a friend about a week ago for the fun of it. We made reservations ahead of time to ensure we wouldn't have to wait a long time. The only other Rodizios that I've been to was in Utah and I had a great experience there. This restaurant was a bit smaller but had a decent layout. I feel like there were less options at the salad bar than what I remembered but I could be wrong. All of the food looked fresh and the meat sword boys stopped by frequently (😂). This type of restaurant isn't my ideal choice but my husband loves eating different kinds of steaks so he absolutely loved it. The salad bar was more my style. 🥗 The dressing that I had was so good and I can't remember what it was called. I think it was the house dressing. Other than that, the garlic steak and the sweet and spicy chicken were my favorite meats. 🍖 And although we had already eaten far too much, we ordered dessert. I ordered crème brûlée and our friend ordered cheesecake. I so badly wished that the crème brûlée had some type of fruit or fruit sauce drizzled on top. 😋 Overall, this is a pricy way to eat fancy meats and have a salad bar with other side such as mashed potatoes and alfredo pasta.

We love Brazilian steakhouses! There was actually some incident in the kitchen and the fire department came and they had to shut down. BUT...we had already eaten quite a bit and they comped our meal plus gave us two $50 vouchers for another meal. So overall the food was amazing and the service under the circumstances was also amazing.

My family have been twice to this location and we were not disappointed. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant is clean and the food is excellent. Being a Brazilian Steakhouse the meats are brought out to your table on skewers and sliced right there. The sides are served buffet style with both hot and cold options. There are bread, oils, and seasonings at the buffet as well. For those that have never been I recommend trying everything at least once, there are lots of flavors unique to a Brazilian Steakhouse that you won't get elsewhere. Price point is on the upper end with drinks and desserts not included in the meal price. However getting all you can handle of very flavorful cuts of Beef, Lamb, Pork, Chicken, and Fish is a perk of that price. If you leave here hungry its on you. This locations only downfall is parking. Its located in the heart of the Arena District in downtown, being right across the street from the arena this place is hard to get into if there is an event going on. Bottom line, make reservations, check the Arenas event schedule, bring a big appetite, your family and a full wallet. It's worth it. Update - This is now my family's favorite place. We go sometimes twice a month and the staff continue to impress. The servers remember our names and favorites. The restaurant has constantly changing specials so you can always try something new without loosing the base favorites. Top rated in our book!

First time every being to a Brazilian Steakhouse and I was definitely not disappointed. It was expensive, 45 bucks per meal, but for a once in a blue moon night out it was worth it. The food just kept coming. Never had to wait with an empty plate for long. The waiters did a great job at keeping the food moving. My favorites of the night were the pineapple and the beef tritip. The pineapple was sweet and almost tasted like a desert.

Would recommend for the experience alone but the food was definitely on point. Beautiful restaurant. Pleasant staff.

This place was awesome! The whole experience was great, “salad bar” was amazing, all kinda of different items to choose from and the meats. . . . out of this world ribeye & tinder-loin. This is my first 5 star rating on a place, they definitely deserve it. *Photo is of some items at the salad bar

First time eating here. Walked over from the Arnold Sports Festival. Great food. Service was great. Plenty of great seating. Our waitress was super. We will be going back.

Today we celebrated my bday early with a family dinner. 2 adults and 2 children under 11. The meat was delicious, however their salad bar was disappointing.

Enjoyed our time here. Plenty of meat variety and options at the salad bar. Also the gentleman slicing the meat were very nice and accommodating to what you wanted. Some of the meat we got was a little tough. Our waitress was nice but she seemed to be struggling a bit so we ended up paying a bit more than we should’ve. However, the place was very busy so we understand.

The WORST experience we have had in YEARS!!PLEASE NEVER GO THERE!!! I must start this horrible experience with the fact that even having a reservation with 4 days beforehand they made us wait 30 to 45 minutes on our table. And after finally getting a table and getting our drinks the WAIT ON MEATS was about another 45 min to the point that my party of 10 filled up on salad and the birthday boy was very disappointed with his choice and so am I. Furthermore was had 2/3 people the liked well done items and all they got was the edges of the cuts. Because the food was cooked in a rush!!! When I went to the side to request fir a manager.. there was nobody on site.so 16 min minutes later a young manager with a very dirty uniform came to my table in front of all family and friends to try to talk to someone who has requested a manager. I do have to say that our waitress was very nice to us when she was able to be around. It did not look like a staffing issue in this nightmare restaurant but rather a lack of skills not to mention how dirty and empty the salad bar was and I understand we went at dinner time! But that's why you make reservations! So you can announce the restaurant a large party is coming and the can prepare their staff and food! WORST $600 EVER SPEND!!!!!!!!

This experience was terrible from beginning to end! We have been to other Brazilian Steakhouses (and my husband is Brazilian) so obviously we had expectations that this experience would be similar to those. We were wrong. The restaurant and restroom were so dirty, trash all over the floor, the salad bar was sloppy and the hot food items were crusted over from sitting for too long. The wait staff ignored us for the first 15 minutes or so and the food itself was terrible!! Honestly the state of the place made me fear that I would be leaving with food poisoning! Definitely do not recommend and will never be back! Waste of $100

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Rodizio Grill, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly and attentive staff that set the tone for what would become an unforgettable evening. Rodizio Grill offers a unique Brazilian dining experience, where gauchos, dressed in traditional clothing, circulate the dining area with a parade of succulent meats on skewers. The concept of continuous tableside service is both exciting and delicious. The restaurant's ambience was warm and inviting, with a tastefully decorated interior that created an authentic South American atmosphere. The soft lighting and comfortable seating added to the overall coziness of the space, making it the perfect setting for a memorable dining experience. The star of the evening was undoubtedly the mesmerizing assortment of meats that were expertly grilled and carved right at our table. The selection was vast, ranging from perfectly seasoned beef, lamb, chicken, and pork. Each cut was tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor, delivering an explosion of taste sensations with every bite. To complement the meats, Rodizio Grill's expansive salad bar offered a variety of fresh and vibrant salads, charcuterie, cheeses, and traditional Brazilian side dishes. The variety was impressive, catering to both vegetarians and meat lovers alike, ensuring that no one left without finding something they truly enjoyed. The service at Rodizio Grill was impeccable—a true testament to their commitment to excellence. The knowledgeable and friendly gauchos went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and ensure that our dining experience was nothing short of perfect. Their attentiveness, combined with their enthusiasm for explaining each cut of meat, made the experience all the more enjoyable. Definitely worth a visit!!!

Love this place! We went for Valentines Day. Perfect place to take a date .The pineapple drink was so amazing the place had so many choices of meats which they kept coming around until you don’t want anymore. They were so good and the salad bar had a lot of options, which was very good as well.

A carnivores paradise; the meat is flavorful and my carnivorous husband enjoyed it a lot! However the price for the salad bar alone is ridiculous! There just aren’t enough options that are worth that kind of money. Our server unfortunately was slower than slow and messed up our check. We literally waited 20 mins for him so we could go and leave. I will never go again… underwhelmed and disappointed!

Had a good time here and while not everything was to my liking there was plenty of options to make certain that something would certainly catch your attention. The ham was by far the best in my opinion along with the garlic steak. The guys taking care of us were in a good mood and we're friendly and that makes a hell of a difference as well. Want some place I would go too often but it's fun to take some friends and enjoy yourself from time to time.

The staff members there were all very pleasant and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious. My husband and I had a wonderful meal and will certainly be back!

I used to love coming to this place, but I went back last week and the food did not taste as good than before. Some menu items like chicken hearts and ribs have been removed from the menu. Sad to say I won't be coming back.

Great food. Good atmosphere if you want a lively restaurant. Not best for quiet conversation.

This is place is really good. The quality is very good, staff is really good. You are going to pay a decent amount for it. The salad bar was kinda strange, I didn't care for the organization, but not enough to knock the place for it.

The salad bar is mediocre at best. There wasn't anything that I was interested in wasting precious stomach space on. I'd be upset to spend $25 on that food. The meat was absolutely delicious 😋 We came during bacon October which was a tasty surprise.

The wife and I first time here but we love the Brazilian steakhouse concept . First impression was great our server Maddie was AWESOME!!!

We really enjoy the look of the restaurant with the high ceilings and the nice music they play. Kelsey was our server for the evening and she provided great service, everything specific we requested, she accommodated which we truly appreciate.

Buffet style sides and meats brought to you. Red cube up when you don't want more meat, green cube up when you want more meat and sideways when you're done eating. Simple. Cutlery and side stations weren't very clean. Food was pretty bland. Nice if you want to eat a lot of variety for one set price. Service was great though.

I enjoyed this restaurant we've been there a couple of times it's my son and my grandson favorite place to go. Reservation's is a must. The atmosphere is nice the servers are nice, I just don't know what else to say it's a nice place to go. You really would enjoy the experience it's a different type of eating experience there's no menu they have these little markers that's color coded, one end is red the other end is green and you turn the green end up, stand it up on the table and the servers come running over to your table and they have these rods with meat on them and they carve off meat for you, as long as you're marker is turned up on the green they keep coming carving meat. When you want to stop them you just turn the marker up to the red end. More meat, turn to green and they start running to your table.again, so much fun. They offering all types of varieties of meat anything from lemon chicken to lamb, sausage, glaze ham, I mean they have all kind of meat steak that lemon pepper steak is delicious that's my favorite it's all good. It's a different experience they have a salad bar so for your side dishes you go to the salad bar I love it, I love it!!! Yes, it's pricey but for the experience It's a wonderful place to dine. A table of four cost us about $220 but the cost is worth the experience. Yum 😋

Compared with the other Brazilian steak house in Columbus, they have more options for meat, like seafoods, and less salty. Their salad bar is impressive. Steak gravy with mashed potatoes and pasta are recommended. The most important thing is eating their grilled pineapple, a perfect balance of sugar and original flavor of pineapple.

This place was absolutely amazing. The food was SO good the meat was dripping with juices the food was fresh and right off the grill, the desserts and drinks were so refreshing and sweet but make sure to not eat anything before coming here and be ready to fill up on tons of good food. And the waiters were on point but not overbearing and super friendly and nice. However since I am a minor I wasn’t able to drink any alcohol but it all looked amazing and my older friends absolutely loved it 8/10 experience.

My daughter & her husband took us as our Christmas gift. They kept coming with meat and I couldn't keep up. Lol. I plan to take others. This was an experience like no other! Of course I loved all the meat options but definitely try the grilled pineapple. Can't wait for my next visit!

Went to celebrate with a large group and the staff was excellent. From reading another review it seems one should wait till the gauchos are finished cutting the meat before reach out to retrieve the meat. The Gauchos knives are extremely sharp and should be considered dangerous. This place is great!

This place is really nice. My waitress and all the Gauchos were all super kind and friendly as well. I told them I didn’t want any pork products and they steered clear of me each time they had it. I give it 4 stars because I think they can add more variety in their hot/cold bar. If that’s all you’re going to eat, the options get pretty limited quickly. And especially if add the meat as well. All in all, it’s a great place to try out if you’re in the area but I will go to Texas de Brazil if I really want the whole thing.

Incredible experience. It was our first time here but have been to other Brazilian steakhouses. We felt the food was fantastic per usual. The beef tender was the best in my opinion. Jordan, one of the gentlemen serving meat, was one of the best servers I’ve ever met. He remembered our meat temperature preference, made conversation while serving, offered seconds, and went above and beyond by grabbing us a skewer of our desire. Very memorable experience!

I went to Ridizio for the first time and I absolutely loved it. No complaints, 10/10. The meat train was my favorite part as well as my servers Ellie and Bryan. I will be back again!
