Assador

Assador gives out a fantastic and real Brazilian barbecue experience. Besides the popular ones, you’ll fine cuts ready for your appreciation as much as you want. Drinks are also great. Located in a noble area in the south of Rio, Aterro do Flamengo, the environment is just a real taste of how nice Rio de Janeiro and its leisure areas can be. Definitely a place to bring family, kids and d friends.

Our trusted guide drove us to this restaurant at lunch time. the restaurant has sweeping views of the Sugar Loaf mountain and the back waters. The staff were quick to get us seated and not knowing what to expect, we started reading the menu.. It had every possible cut of beef, lamb, pork and chicken. We decided on ordering few items from the menu which had no price on it. Then out of blue, there were three people ready to serve us different cuts of meat and only then we realised it was all-you-can- eat grill buffet. The lamb chops were cooked to perfection and we enjoyed most of what they served. But the only downside was that everything was quite salty, which made us stop half-way through. 3 of us paid close to 900 BR including few beer. Its definitely value for money and a worthy experience of brazilian BBQ

Delicious food, friendly staff, but we sat near a for that was constantly left open, flies and heat would come in, the bathrooms have no emergency lights and the power went out leaving us in pitch black darkness... Not safe for a nice restaurant to be so careless.

Around 271 real a person, food was very good, all you can eat style and sides were good too.

The place is in a nice setting with a view over the bay and the sugar loaf mountain. The food is great with a good selection of meats, salads and vegetables.

High end spot, place was surprisingly dead, service was great early but faded in the evening, probably due to lack of guests but when you’re paying such a premium you expect their to be food walking around when you switch to green. Would recommend but not budget friendly. Food and one bottle of wine for 2..$160 USD

Everything was perfect! The whole experience from start to finish! The options of steaks and sides were endless, it was a bit overwhelming for me as this is my first churrascaria but overall food was exceptional, best quality. I highly recommend this place

I saw really good things about this place online so I had high expectations when I went and they did not disappoint! The food was absolutely amazing. So many options that just kept coming. I love that you don’t have to leave your table for anything because they bring everything to you. Their fried banana was one of my favorite sides! I felt like I had to wobble out the door because I ate so much food. I usually take tons of pictures for my reviews but I was so busy eating I only got 1.

Really enjoyed my steak dinner here. This place came highly recommended by the concierge at the hotel and everything was delicious. It was a bit overwhelming sometimes because they are constantly coming by to offer you food and with the language barrier it was hard to understand every cut they were offering and to ask for a break. Wish they had one of those tokens you flip up when you want more. Then of course when we were ready to try some more it took a bit of time to get them to come by since a big party had just arrived. We mentioned that it was my birthday when booking the reservation but it was not acknowledged in any way. Not looking for anything free, just a thanks for choosing to celebrate your birthday with us or a candle on the dessert we ordered. We ordered the creme brulee three ways because creme brulee is one of my favorites. It did not disappoint. The unlimited steak dinner for 2 with a nice Malbec and the dessert came out to around 150 US. Not bad for a delicious meal where I ate way too much.

Absolutely awful service. Went there with a cruise ship group. Never got our fish. Asked for lamb for 30 minutes, waited 20 minutes for a coke, waiters asked the women if they wanted chicken hearts but not the men, never brought back chicken nor ribs. Our guide brought the manager over to translate our problems. So what next, we were not served dessert. Then we were asked for coffee and it never came before we had to leave. What a HORRIBLE experience. We left hungry and PISSED!

I came, I saw, and I was conquered by this amazing restaurant, it's staff, and their breath taking view!!! I picked this place because of the view let me just be honest. But I also picked this place because the food looked amazing!!! I found them on Instagram, if you didn't know they have an Instagram check them out @Assadorbr they post daily fire content! Anyways, I booked my reservation online and I picked the option to sit outside because well I'm coming from Dallas, TX and I need the best seat in the house cmon! Lol anyways upon arrival we were greeted like we were VIP immediately they took us outside sat us down offered us drinks etc. and as every all you can eat Brazilian steakhouse the meat started coming! No lie I enjoyed every single cut of meat all were fire especially the pork belly I believe was exceptional. Also when I go to Brazilian steakhouses I don't typically eat the chicken but here I did and it was fire too. All the meats were well seasoned not super salty. Also instead of getting up like in US and serving yourself they brought out all the sides such as salads, veggies, rice, beans, etc. which all were amazing. For dessert I had their pudim and it was super good no air bubbles just creamy goodness. Anyways I give this place 5 stars because the service was great the staff spoke Portuguese, spanish and English so that is a big plus to have people that are able to communicate with anybody dining at their restaurant. They were super kind and attentive. The food was amazing and the view obviously you can see! So if you are in Brazil you must check them out!

WOW- this place, this ambiance, the customer service just SPECTACULAR. Food was great. You are started with a bunch of appetizers including pao de quejo, yuca fries, French fries, salads, etc. You are then served a variety of meats. What I loved most, was that I wasn't rushed and didn't feel bad for wanting more! The servers were super nice and accommodating if I needed something- they brought it! Best Churrascaria experience ever - thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

If you visiting Rio and you like steak and meat This is the place to go Omg is water mounted meat If you seat outside the view is everything The service is very good

I wish I could give our experience at this restaurant more than a five star! I didn't know where to start, the salad bar was incredible. I was really looking forward to the whole Brazilian dining experience, a real one, because I was in Brazil. Don't get me wrong I do love Rodizio's in Colorado but this restaurant was incredible and I couldn't get past the salad bar. I have never had a salad bar experience like this one, ever!!!! I decided just to eat the salad bar and not do the meat experience and I was perfectly happy with my choice. There is so much to choose from, meats, cheese, olives, fruits, salad, hearts of palm, desserts, but honestly one of my favorite things that I kept eating, was fresh pork rind strips that they made pork belly. I almost made a entire dinner out of that! I never had anything on a salad bar that was so good. The service was great, the people were friendly, and the view was incredible. It sits right on the water and you have a view of Sugarloaf Mountain. It would be a really fun place to go have appetizers and cocktails as you enjoy the view. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Awesome view... however food and service were poor. We saved this restaurant for our last meal in Rio. We were very disappointed with the quality of the meat (Argentine steak was only one edible) and the poor service from the wait staff and side dish buffet service. Avoid, unless your preference is for overpriced food with lacklustre service. When we brought our experience to management's attention, they were indifferent. There are much better restaurants with great views.

Absolutely fantastic. Food, service and setting was absolutely incredible. We had an incredible meal for two with drinks, juice and a ton of other things for far less than we have paid in the US. I can't recommend this place enough

I made reservations prior to coming an it was definitely NOT necessary! I arrived on a Monday evening an due to Covid sadly this place was not packed at all. I sat inside an due to the language barrier was brought an iPad with the menu on it. I pointed to what was the adult "buffet" where all different types of meat were brought out to me. Even though the language barrier, all the gentlemen servers an manger was extremely kind! You'll find a card on the table, one side green indicating you want more food to come, an red indicating to stop the food. It didn't make a difference! LOL The guys just kept it coming. I didn't know what meat was which but for the most part I liked all but one. The bread given at the beginning was my favorite. There are also different salads brought out as well. The restaurant is HUGE with outdoor seating. They also have numerous wine cellars an I was shocked to see a wine all the way from my hometown (Fairfield, CA) What I really loved was the chocolate lava cake an ice cream. I will say that I would of liked to stay longer but it was chilly due to the open air restaurant. I would go back an remember not too tip as much as I did. NOTE: They already tack on the tip to your total bill! I found that out later after reviewing my receipt. My total was $57.30 USD. (Probably would of been about $50 if I didnt over tip an $45 without dessert). I would go back....
