    Not worth it! Missing items from order and food quality bad! Burnt maduros…. But like burnt black! Yuck. All the food was cold. The Churrasco steak was fatty and more like bad carne asada. Not the best quality meat. Only a few cold, thin strip like, pale slices of meat & a small thin chicken breast with all sides missing. We paid almost $80 with uber eats for a very yucky meal. I could have ordered 6-7 much better hot meals from Sergio’s for that price! Manchego croquetas were a small portion, cold and missing the best part, the guava sauce. Also they throw the maduros after frying on the styrofoam and it melts onto the food. Trying to give us cancer without a liner in there. Stay away! Do not recommend! If you want overpriced low quality cold food and lots of missing items go there. Thanks but NO THANKS! 👎🤑

    Extremely disappointed. The sandwich with churrasco had no flavor if you like the taste of raw bread with chewy meat this is the place to go. The fries were extremely over fried and soggy. Asked for medium rare got served medium well. Only giving it a two star rating because the steak is decent but for a Brazilian restaurant the owners or staff aren’t Brazilian what a shame.

    Exceptional place. Delicious food. Our server, Arianna, was a real five-star server. The ambiance was fenomenal. I believe it is one of the best places I've been lately . It is hard to find such a good restaurant like that one nowadays. The professionalism of every employee is out of this world. Everyone is focused on each client to make sure that the service provided is to the highest standards. I will love to go back again.

    Ok so I was there last night and I ordered two special of 1Lb churrasco and two sides for $20. I asked for one well-done and one medium-well. I paid and notice after that it didn’t add up I got charged for two specials for 1/2Lb churrasco and two sides instead which goes for about$15-$16. I went to tell the lady and she went to check her order receipt and came back and told me that ordered 1/2Lbs like putting the blame on me and I said no I asked for two 1lb specials so I paid the difference and she went and told the cook in Spanish that I changed the order and she charged me the difference. I waited for over 45 mins which was more then expected which is ok expect that money people who came and ordered after us got their food before us. So my order was ready asked to make sure that the meat was 1Lb each order and they said yes when I got home I went straight to weigh the meat in its container and all and they was under weight 16oz = 1Lbs I should have gotten a total of 32 oz and received 26.6oz as you can see in the pictures with the container and all. That is in total 5.4 oz less maybe more without the weight of the containers which might add a little more. That is almost 1/2Lb missing ( 1/2 Lb is 8oz) so that was that I also received one of the meats well done which I asked for and the other was just 90% burnt and nasty u literally just taste the burnt when u tried to eat it. I’ve been here before and never experience this before was completely unsatisfied. I’ve even been to the restaurant on 88th street and have had good experiences before and brought and told people about this place.I was just overall disappointed with this food truck location and food served.

    This is our go-to place to get our meat fix. We always get the Deluxe Meat tray, grilled veggies, rice and tostones. It never disappoints and is always fresh and tender. The cocktails are wine based and delicious and desserts are over the top. Servers and staff are attentive and really nice. The ambiance is very Miami with lots of movement and good vibes. They go all out with the custom decor making the restaurant feel extra special. You can see the staff cooking your meat from any angle. The TVs display current and popular Latin music videos as well as their menu offerings. I have read reviews on people offended by the content of the videos like if they are producing nude videos. Hello! The content comes from the artist and is what you typically see on the beach here in Miami maybe even with some more clothes on in the videos…lol If it’s really a deal breaker though, sit your sheltered party where they can’t see the TVs showing the videos, there are blind spots here. My wine photo shows one of them. I refer all our friends here because they have consistently given us really good food at a great prices every time we’ve been. It’s amazing and you should definitely try it if you are a meat lover.

    Honest Review: This food truck has lots of food items on the menu, including more beef than anything else. Side dishes are really good (could improve on fries). Its by a gas station, so take out is recommended. Staff is really nice and bilingual. If they can lower the price, then that would be a bonus for a repeated customer like myself.

    This place used to always serve a really good food. Last couple of times I ordered the meat was not in the term I ordered. I requested medium and I got an obviously medium well/well done meat. Not saying I won't return buelt you guys should be more careful with the requests and especially with the meat cook temperature as this is really important for people who order churrasco or picanha.

    9:45pm Wife called and was told no need to make the order she’s very busy and alone taking calls with customers infront. We said ok, don’t worry we are close by anyways. When we arrived we were told picanha only available is medium temp. We said that is fine. Lady stopped taking our order to take a call. We waited till she took the order over the phone. Upon hanging up, cook shouted ‘No more picanha’. I said can you prioritize us over the call order since we are here now and arrived before you decided to take the that call order? She said sorry we can’t start up the grill now for your order. I said I was displeased. Alejandro was courteous enough to the point where we were not going to write a bad review. BUT the lady later after we ordered a different meat argued saying I told her half pound when I actually had said 1 pound. I was kind enough to let her know of her error before she charged me. She started shouting saying she does not need to take this from the public??? I said what bothered you so much? We were only pointing out that the order before it was charged was incorrect. She seemed flustered and took it out on us infront of others. She went as far as to say why didn’t you place the order online? We said we wanted to but you told us no need…. Lady made a bad situation worst at every exchange. Somehow we can’t express an error before it’s made or point out a displeased experience to the people which are there to have the opportunity in correcting it. She would not stop making comments the entire time we waited for the food. Saying things like ‘that guy over there said half pound and later says 1 pound, what’s wrong with people’. Nobody comes to buy food for their family looking to get reamed in a public humiliation attempt by someone whom CLEARLY hates dealing with the public. Especially someone as sweet as us. Not once was a curse word uttered or disrespect in any way. We asked for her name she would not give it. I asked others for it and the same happened. We decided to just take a picture.

    The meat here is always 5 stars. Update the menu prices. 1 lb of Churrasco is $22 but the menu prices is $17.99. I also weigh the food and It's hardly ever a full pound. Come on guys. Give me what I paid for.

    Don't have a picture but wow we were blown away with the great meat choices they have. Food truck wait time was average 25 - 30 minutes. But wow the meat, sausage, pork, chicken was delicious. They cater too.

  • 2/5 An G. 1 year ago on Google
    The food quality was terrible. The price of the ribeye steak was $80 and it was the worst one I’ve ever had. Another thing, the price said it was $80 a pound and yet I only got about 10 slices which probably wasn’t even half a pound. The waiter messed up our sides and when we called for the manager he/she didn’t show up.

    Exelent place for steak churrasco, Brazil good delicious.

  • 2/5 Jimmy R. 1 year ago on Google
    The restaurants are nice the food truck was not. Took way to long to get food. So popular the phone orders outweighed the physical customers so it was a 30 min wait once the order was placed. There should be two staffs, but they don't care they take your mo ey upfront on the order and you stand around a gas station for half an hour. Take my number and text me while I wait in my car..be innovated don't just make us stand around.

    Judith was an excellent waitress. The food came fast, hot and excellent taste. Second time in one week. I will recommend the place and the waitress.
