CopaCabana Brazilian Steakhouse - Toronto

Wow so much beef. Shrimp were big and juicy! Different kinds of beef the butter tips were moist and delicious melted in your mouth. Yummy! The prime with cheese was superb. We had the salmon bites which were juicy not dried out.

Came here for winterlicious, you order using the QR code with your phone and I must say the appetizers were pretty good but they were pretty much all stomach fillers. The salad dressing for the salad didn't taste good. It woul be nice if they had some shrimp and mussels for the appetizer like how they do it at Rodeo steakhouse. The main meat were delicious and I feel like they have reduced the numbers of different cut of meat compared to previous years. The pineapple is usually the star and I felt it was being rushed out. All the pineapple slices we got hardly got any carmelization from the cooking process plus it need more cinnamon to enhance the flavor. Several pieces we ate were all crunchy which means it need to be cooked on the fire some more. This was a bit of a let down. The servers were amazing and super friendly and attenditive. However, when paying the bill the manager who comes around with the credit card machine was a bit rude and please spare us the flamboyant attitude. The whole body language was so unnecessary. He shows up to our table and put the the credit card machine on the table and expect payment right away with his demeanor. How about some manors like how was your dinner tonight? Once we paid he does his stupid walk and says thank you looking away from us. That was so damn rude!!! The owner of this location need to have a chat with him and check your cameras if you dont believe me. I almost didn't want to pay because of that. The price to come eat is not cheap at all and better service is expected. Go visit the staff at Touro and Rodeo Brazilian steakhouse. They are all professionals! Minus two stars because of this employee with the credit card machine.

Went here as a large party of 20 (birthday person eats for free on their exact birth date with 4 paying guests), so total was $105 per person. It was interesting to try once but you definitely won’t eat the value of that and it felt like they kept sending sides that were fillers so you don’t end up eating as much meat. There were dancers that came out for a bit every hour or so. Highlight was the Parmesan coated meat and grilled pineapple at the end.

We came to Copacabana Brazilian Steakhouse (Eglinton) on a Friday night around 5:30 pm for the early bird special ($65 all you can eat). We made a reservation, so there was no wait — although it wasn’t too busy at that time anyway. You order side dishes from your phone by scanning a QR code, and the meats are brought out on skewers and carved right in front of you, so you can take as much as you like. Most of the grilled meats were great, though a few cuts were a bit tough. Service was excellent — staff were friendly and attentive. The music was a little too loud for us to chat comfortably, and it’s not the most kid-friendly place because of the noise level. Parking was fine during our visit; there are plenty of paid lots nearby. Overall, it’s a fun and lively spot for meat lovers, especially if you enjoy the Brazilian churrasco experience!

Manager and host accommodated us so well. Cleaned and set the table so neat. “Meat men” were so accommodating when i wanted my temperature MW, came back with personal plate of multiple meats cooked to my liking. everything was so tasteful and service was great!!

One of the best Brazilian steak house ! All the meats were cooked to perfection, juicy, tender and well seasoned ! Blew our mind with the parmesan fillet mignon or the bbq rub top sirloin ! All the sides like roasted sweet potato & beef, mac and cheese are definitely top tier too ! Def recommend to try. Our server Raman, was so sweet and took care of us all night! We were greeted warmly by Amar when we arrived ❤️ . Staffs were very nice and accommodating

I'll say this much, you're paying for the experience and the expensive meat... Definitely only come here for a special occasion. Otherwise it's okay to skip out on it. But it the meat and sides are indeed good though don't get me wrong, but it doesn't seem that the price is a bit steep for what you get.

We had an amazing experience at Copacabana on Eglinton! We went on a Tuesday night to celebrate a birthday, and everything from start to finish was fantastic. The ambience was great—lively but still comfortable—and the food was absolutely delicious. Every dish was perfectly prepared, and we truly enjoyed the whole dining experience. The service was excellent, and a special shout-out to Gary, the manager. He was incredibly attentive, accommodating, and made sure everything ran smoothly, which really elevated the night for us. We were very, very happy with our visit and would definitely recommend this place for celebrations or a great night out. Can’t wait to come back!

Came here for my birthday and loved it the staff was so nice and the meat carvers were very attentive and asked what we wanted more of, definitely recommend the only downside was the table there wasn't enough room

Came here for La Latina nights which was $90 all you can eat fiesta boards and drinks and it was such a vibe! Truly a lively atmosphere with good music and live entertainment! Got their meat board and a bunch of sides including Parmesan fries, spinach dip, and mac and cheese. Would def love to come back for this!

This Brazilian steakhouse delivers on atmosphere and food quality, but inconsistent service keeps it from being a great value. The interior is lively and well-designed, with good music and an energetic vibe that makes it a nice spot for a night out. The food itself was solid, when it came. On paper, the all-you-can-eat and drink Tuesday for $80 sounded like excellent value. At the start, service was fast and attentive for about 30 minutes, with meats coming around regularly. Then, very abruptly, it slowed to a crawl. Servers stopped coming by altogether, and we had to wave people down, often unsuccessfully. At times, we were simply ignored. A few other drawbacks: - Drinks tasted noticeably watered down - An 18% gratuity was added without prior notice, which was frustrating given the service issues - The service flow seems designed to push sides more than meats, which hurts the AYCE value unless you're very proactive That said, the value can be there if you're strategic and maximize portions when the meats come around and don't hesitate to ask directly. Just be prepared for uneven service and some effort on your part. Overall Copacabana has a great ambiance, decent food, but inconsistent service and transparency issues make this place fall short of what it could be.

Review for Copacabana Brazilian Steakhouse 150 Eglinton Ave E We dined here on Saturday, December 27, arriving just before 5:00 PM, as a party of four adults. Within hours of the meal, three out of four of us became very sick. Symptoms included severe diarrhea every 20-25 minutes for the first 24 hours and projectile vomiting. As of December 29, symptoms are improving, but we are still unwell and very sick. This was an extremely severe reaction and not something any of us have experienced before. The only person who did not get sick did not eat the chicken, which raises serious concerns about food handling or preparation. To add to the frustration, an automatic 18% gratuity was added to the bill without any prior notice. This incident has been reported to Toronto Public Health. Food safety should never be an issue, and this experience was deeply concerning.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. I've been to many rodizios, and this was, by far, the worst experience of my life. For an expensive "all-you-can-eat" steakhouse, we spent the entire night staring at empty plates while the staff desperately tried to fill us up on cheap side dishes. ​The "Meat" (Or lack thereof): It felt like a vegetarian buffet masquerading as a steakhouse. We barely got any meat the entire night. The servers would come out, hit two or three tables, and then scuttle back into the kitchen like they were rationing gold. We had to constantly ask--beg, really--for service, and nothing changed. The only time we actually got a decent slice was when we physically flagged down a server and practically demanded they leave the whole piece. ​The Service: It is absolutely criminal that this place enforces a time limit and then ignores you for the duration of it. To make matters worse, they have the audacity to include a mandatory 18% gratuity on the bill. Why am I tipping 18% for service that doesn't exist? It's clear the staff has no incentive to actually provide a good experience because their tip is guaranteed regardless of how poorly they treat the guests. ​The Environment: The decline of this place is obvious. Even the basic logistics are a mess--the table next to us waited over 20 minutes just for their bill to arrive so they could escape. ​Final Verdict: Do not waste your time or your hard-earned money here. You are paying a premium price for "constant" service that is actually non-existent. It's a scam designed to push sides and collect a forced tip while you watch the clock run out. Save yourself the headache and go literally anywhere else.

We made reservations for their Winterlicious menu (which is the only menu they have during these weeks apparently). Walking inside was underwhelming and it felt very dark, cafeteria style. We were seated at a table for two and when asked about a booth (my friend is 7 months pregnant) the response was no (not even a not right now, which wasn't the best first impression but, not a huge deal). Our server was very kind and explained the menu well and suggestions on how many sides to start with, etc. The sides came out randomly and the meats were pretty sparse between times they came around. For example, when garlic shrimp came around, they offered two and we waited nearly an hour (and asked a few times) for them to come back around. The meats were fine but definitely not anything special (especially for the price) and almost all were coated in different cheeses -- except the strip loin that like the shrimp, we waited ahead for. A table beside us left unhappy and another left before even ordering. The built in 18% gratuity was a bit of a surprise (something to keep in mind). The washrooms were not very clean, decor is dated and dark and the food was mediocre at best Needless to say, we won't be back -- a shame really.

We've been huge fans of Copacabana for years, having visited most of their locations before the pandemic--even the ones that sadly closed during that time. This was our first visit to the Eglinton location, and we were excited to see how it compared to the others. We went for the Date Night Dinner ($145 for two people, including a bottle of wine). We chose red and got a bottle of Shiraz, which paired perfectly with the red meat feast ahead. The atmosphere was lively, with a live DJ setting the vibe for a fun evening. The food? Absolutely fantastic. The grilled meats were cooked to perfection--juicy, flavourful, and served medium rare, which we love. The servers were on top of their game, constantly bringing different cuts of meat to our table. For those who've been to Copa before, you might remember the little coasters you'd flip to signal if you wanted more or needed a break. That's gone now, so the meat just keeps coming! All you have to do is politely decline--but honestly, how do you say no to those hunks of meat? (Yes, I'm talking about the actual meat!) We tried nearly everything on the rodizio menu, but some standouts were the parmesan filet mignon, the signature picanha, and this amazing cut stuffed with melty cheese (wish I remembered the name). On the side, we had the salmon tartare and the roasted broccoli and zucchini. The tartare was a little too fishy for our taste--stronger than the sushi-grade salmon we're used to--but the veggies had a nice smoky flavour, even though they were a bit over-grilled and leaned towards bitter. Whenever we dine at Copa, we couldn't say no to the grilled pineapple--it's sweet, caramelized, and so addictive that I couldn't resist grabbing a couple of slices before finally putting my tongs down. I also had the cornbread, which was soft and pillowy, and ended with some vanilla gelato, a refreshing way to wrap up such a hearty meal. The Eglinton location itself is beautiful--though a bit smaller than the Vaughan location, it's clean, and tastefully decorated. One thing we did miss was the Brazilian dance show, which for some reason wasn't happening on the Friday we visited. But honestly, the amazing food and lively energy made up for it. Copacabana hasn't lost its touch, and we're so glad we finally made it to this location. If you're a fan of all-you-can-eat meat or just looking for a great night out, this place is definitely worth visiting.

We visited this restaurant on a weekday and opted for the rodizio style dinner ($75 AYCE). The meat was delicious and the servers kept a constant flow of food coming around to our table. We tried nearly everything we wanted to from the grilled meats menu, as well as several sides, including: the dinosaur kale salad (surprisingly very flavourful and crispy like chips), pao de queijo (sooo fluffy and cheesy, piping hot out of the stove), casava fries, and salmon carpaccio (delicious). For the meats, we really enjoyed the prime rib with cheddar and parmesan filet mignon. The anticucho steak was also nice and juicy. For dessert, the grilled pineapple was a hit across the table, as the charred flavour caramelizes the sugars and enhances the sweetness. The interior was nice and spacious, decorated tastefully and kept clean. The meal surpassed my expectations for an AYCE place that I've always worried would be too gimicky. Would definitely recommend.

Consistently my favourite restaurant in the GTA every year... but I wouldn't say that's everyone's opinion. It is pricey, but to me, worth it! Service: 4.5/5 - When my buddy and I got there, we had a reservation for 9pm but didn't get seated until 9:30. They were extremely busy... so it kind of was a downer for us, especially since I was fasting and came here to break it, expecting to be seated within a few minutes. However, the hosts were still very friendly and you could tell they were trying their best! I just don't get, though, how it could be so delayed... my suggestion would be to let people know when they're seated that they only have 2 hours to eat. That way, when it's up, you know you can seat the next person that's reserved the table. However, as soon as we were seated, the waiters and waitresses were EXCELLENT. Food came pretty frequently, everyone was so friendly checking up on us, and just great, great service, overall. I don't remember it being this efficient or food coming this regularly. Would be giving the service a 5/5 if it wasn't for the wait at the beginning. Ambiance: 5/5 - This is not a spot where you come to chat with a friend and eat; you come here for an entire experience, including the Brazilian dancers that performed halfway through the meal. Also, I'm a huge fan of Spanish music and they played so much good Spanish music throughout the night - hats off to the DJ! Food: 5/5 - again, my favourite restaurant in the GTA. It's not necessarily that it has the best tasting food in the GTA, but the variety of the high quality steaks, that are all packed with flavour... with the pineapple and great appetizers as well, it's just the perfect place for me. I don't remember which steaks to recommend, but they were all really good, except for 1. The cassava fries were awesome too, from the appetizers menu. Can't wait to come back for my birthday!

I barely ate as the meat rarely came to our take at some point we didn't have nothing but sides for good 40 minutes despite our constant request to the waitress. Order ice cream and took 25 min to arrive . I actually had to get McDonald after because we actually got some meat but the waitress said we could eat anymore or order a soft drink because we had to leave . Waitress were very unprofessional and rude ! Not worthy of 34$ tip each by our 6 people party. Stay away from this location if you looking for good dinner not worth the price! Music and ambiance was the only reason we book a birthday party here!!

Food: The food was good. I will say I think the quality is slightly less than Rodeo on the Danforth. We tried a number of their sides: Casava fries, regular fries, corn bread, grilled mushrooms, & braised beef with Casava purée. Hubby & I both thought the Casava fries were the best. For those who haven't been to this restaurant before, it's all you can eat. The servers come around with skewers where they carve the meat off in front of you. They also have boards of dishes. We tried many things: garlic sirloin, garlic shrimp, salmon, top sirloin, flank sirloin, filet mignon, Miami ribs, roasted pineapple, Hawaiian sirloin, chicken piri piri, & sirloin with dry rub. At the end of our meal we tried the three desserts: orange flan, chocolate brownie & vanilla bean gelato. Hubby & I agreed the flan was the best. Ambiance: The decor is nice. Tables are black with black wooden chairs. Booths have green upholstery on it. There are neon signs on the walls & mirror partitions. Looks like there are two bars. The music is loud & you'll be shouting. At 6pm on a Saturday the live DJ comes on & a samba dancer started dancing around the restaurant. We really enjoyed that part. But before we left the loud music was starting to get to me. Not sure about others but too much noise, lights & smells make me feel overstimulated. So if you're looking for a nice quiet place to have dinner this isn't that place. LOL Service: Our waitstaff Hayley & Kenya were really great. The servers with the skewers were all great too. But when we got the bill I was surprised to see an 18% gratuity. It's common to get charged gratuity for groups of 6 & over. But it was just hubby & I. On the bill it says gratuity for parties 1 or over, which is basically everyone. It was not a pleasant surprise. I didn't see anything about that on the website & wasn't warned when we sat down. Also when we were getting ready to leave, hubby went to the bathroom & I was approached by one of the management. He said there was 3 hour limit on the table & we'd almost reached it. He said other people are waiting for the table & he really needs it. I told him that I was just waiting for my hubby to come back & then we would leave. He said ok. It was another not so pleasant surprise. If we'd been warned when we sat down about the gratuity & time limit I think it wouldn't have bothered me as much because I knew what to expect. But I didn't feel so welcome when we were leaving the restaurant. Conclusion: Even though we enjoyed the food & the variety they had, I wish they could cook the meats a little bit more. I don't like seeing blood on my plate. Also I didn't like the two surprises we had with the gratuity & time limit. Btw if you have any intolerance for dairy like me, it's in almost any dish so be careful. Let your waitstaff know of any food restrictions. I'm not sure I would come back. Rodeo treated us much better than Copacabana. I think I'd rather go there even thought it's farther away for us. Update: I looked on the menu & the gratuity info is posted there on the bottom in fine print. I totally missed that. Still nothing about a 3 hour time limit though.

Love their steaks. Don't over indulge on salads though to make more space for other stuff. Over all, love the service and food.

Great, social media visuals. Love the culture im seeing, futher more updates on my date tonight!

On a recent visit to Niagara Falls, we decided to give Copacabana a try because I've always wanted to try a Brazilian Steakhouse since I learned about them several years ago. After a fun day with lots of walking and a healthy appetite, we were among the first customers to be seated. The meats started arriving quickly and they were well seasoned and oh so flavorful. We are ordered a variety of sides, including a hot spinach dip with pita bread that was to die for. We sent pictures of our spread to our Brazilian friend and she verified we were getting an authentic experience. We topped it off with some friend bananas for dessert. This was an amazing high end dining event in a beautiful venue.

This is an awesome place! I love the unique Brazilian restaurant concept! The restaurant had a modern club feel, dimly lit, high energy music and modern decor. There was a big selection of sides and desserts that you can order from the menu. The meat selection was pretty good not too salty with great flavors. The sirloin, garlic parmesan chicken, shrimp, prime rib, grilled pineapple and fish were my favorite. Definitely come here with an empty stomach. What an excellent experience of quality food options, great service and the ambiance was impeccable with the brazilin Sumba dance throughout the restaurant and free shots every hours of different alcoholic beverages to taste from the bars. The staff was very attentive, and the washrooms were clean. I wish we could move this restaurant to the States! I will definitely be back.

Excellent food, terrible logistics. Let's start with what I loved. The food. Excellent fare. All you can eat Brazilian steakhouse with unlimited alcohol options. Doesn't disappoint. The taste is fantastic. Especially their bacon wrapped steak, their cheesy bread and their cilantro lime chicken. Then why am I giving them 3 stars? Few reasons: 1) Terrible logistics will ensure that if you are a small group, you'll receive the food much later than the larger groups. In two hours, the my group of 2 people didn't get the shrimp even once despite reminding them a couple of times. To the point that we were full by the time we told our waitress again and asked her to take our plates away. The bacon wrapped steak also came once and then we got it once more after an hour. I hated how 18% gratuity was included despite terrible service. I am happy to pay good gratuity if the service is actually good. 2) The unlimited drinks on weekdays have a 90 minute limit but they don't do last call reminders. 3) The servers serving the meat were good but our main server who took our order wasn't good. It's worth trying once for their food but I wouldn't care about going back again. If I'm paying north of $80 I expect good service and truly excellent food.

The food was either overly seasoned or under seasoned. Meat is either too chewy or too burnt. I just didnt have a good experience here. Staff is nice and they come around with different meat options. The place is nice and fancy. But the pricing did not justify. I paid $100 and never again.

I was so excited to eat here as my parents are from Brasil So I order a green salad and found a hair it ruined my whole experience Bad service and the waitress not even apologized she just said let me bring you a clean plate I'm sad Not worth it One star is what I'll give

Worst birthday ever. It was a myriad of racist bias, degrading assumptions of character and financial stability. This was a reservation for my birthday dinner. I've booked at other Copacabana locations and had an amazing time. At the Eglinton location the acting manager singulamade us feel that we out of 3 birthday tables was insignificant and, at best, an inconvenience. The reservation was booked as a birthday event, introduced as a birthday dinner upon arrival, and reaffirmed as a birthday reservation nearing the end of our time limit. Ours was rhe only table of 3 asked to show ID and then refused birthday service.... The experience ended between embarrassment and unworthy existence

Service for meats was slow. We had to keep asking our server to send them over. Ordering via text for sides was a little wonky as well. You get an acknowledgement but there's no idea of when your sides will show up. The cheese bread and corn bread are not on the menu and you must also request them from the server

Our friends recently took us here for a joint bachelor & bachelorette party. We had an wonderful evening with live dancers and amazing food. The restaurant had a modern club feel, dimly lit with neon lights. There was a big selection of sides and desserts that you can order from the menu, and a variety of meats were served by waiters (who thinly sliced the meat from a giant skewer onto your plate). Our favourite sides were the sweet potato fries, pulled pork, and chicken croquettes. The meat was mostly done medium rare (just the way I like it). However, I did find the seasoning of the meat to be a bit on the salty side. Also I had a hard time hearing what the waiters were serving since the music was so loud - so most of the time I didn't know which cuts of meat I was having. Overall, it was a great experience. This is the perfect place for any celebration

TL;DR: Like others have mentioned, go to any location but this one. Frustrating, slow service. I had a very disappointing experience at CopaCabana this past Saturday night. For $100 per person, with an 18% gratuity already added to the bill, we expected much better service. Our server, Nilufer K., was barely present throughout our two-hour visit--only checking in with us four times. We were also served the same two steaks for a large portion of the meal, and after the first hour, we had to request more steak service because we'd only seen it three times. I ordered a drink through the app, and it took a full 30 minutes to arrive, and only after I flagged our server down. The service was painfully slow, and when we were ready to pay, I had to actually ask the manager to track down our server. Instead of bringing the POS machine with them, the server made us wait even longer, and we ended up just leaving cash on the table. Overall, the experience was frustrating and not at all worth the price. I will not be returning.

If you love meat, Meat Castle is your kingdom. The staff is incredibly friendly and makes sure the meat just keeps on coming--exactly how it should be. The top sirloin, picanha, and parmesan-crusted filet mignon? Unreal. Every bite was perfection. I ate so much that I physically couldn't sleep. No regrets. Easily a 5-star experience. Highly recommend. Unfortunately, my dining companions? 2 stars. James, in particular, hurt my feelings. Very rude. Not Meat Castle's fault, but still worth mentioning. Would I come back? Absolutely

I wish there was a Copacabana in every city. The meat is so extraordinary. The way it's prepared is unmatched. Yes, there are other Brazilian Rodizio steakhouses in the world, but Copacabana is still my favorite by FAR. That's just the main food! The service - is still rock on the best. I've seen different folks serving and managing, and.. still keeping it up. It's great for a catch up with an evening with a close friend, or a family event. The nights when there's live music, it's very fun and lively. I think i was one of the first customers when this placed opened in 2009.. so.. 15 years later.. wow..that's a lot of Copacabana. Also, unlike every other Brazilian rodizio steakhouse I've tried, I've never craved to go back for more the next day like I have with Copacabana. And yes.. no one also has ever come close to matching the pineapple finish.. Aaaand I'm hungry again.

The food was delish... when we actually got served!!! We went to this location on May 18, 2025 for my in-laws 50th anniversary. I told my family that this was a good place to go. Some of our family frequently go to Touro's, another Brazilian restaurant. I wanted them to try Copacabana because we always enjoyed it (we went to the old downtown location a few times before which was amazing!) Well, to say I was disappointed, was putting it mildly. I was embarrassed that I suggested this place. We were a group of 13 ppl. And I know that can be challenging to serve such a big group, but I haven't been so underserved and ignored in an all you can eat Brazilian resto before (and price bracket resto). And we've been to Touro and other Copacabana locations multiple times both before and after the pandemic. My husband said he didn't think he even ate 8 oz of meat in total!!! We were ignored most of the time - I don't think they had enough meat servers to fully feed the ppl in the restaurant. And when we told our main server about it, I'm not even sure she did anything. We finally mentioned it to one of the meat servers and he made such effort to come to us as often as possible and made sure to bring chicken for the three kids in our group. He was the only one that made the night better and not a total joke! For the amount of money that was spent at this restaurant, it was definitely NOT WORTH THE MONEY! And for such a special occasion, it was so disappointing. If I wasn't so embarrassed to my family, I would've definitely demanded to be refunded some of the money. Highly disappointed at this Copacabana location. I suggest the Vaughn location if you want to be feed properly, get your money's worth and have a good experience. Or try Touro's. I wish I had the name of the main server for not taking care of our group and also the meat server ... he was the only one that saved it from being the worst experience.

The worst experience of my entire life! Was visiting Toronto early November from California, and decided to invite my family out to dinner and based on my experience with Brazilian steakhouses in the USA, I decided to take them to this place. What a mistake!!! The service was terrible. The hostess told my nephew "tell me if you want a lot of soda so I can bring it all at once!" Then she shows up with like four glasses of soda and he only asked for one. After that she forgot to bring all four of our alcoholic drinks and shows up with one, and when I inquired, she said you must've just ordered one, so I placed another order for three more, then she shows up with six, saying oh you must've ordered them all. The meat was not all that good, and the servings were terrible. Comes the check, and they have added 18% tip automatic for a party of five. So I asked them to remove the tip and make it "optional" as it is supposed to be ( I am not a cheap tipper, I just don't like to be forced to tip). This is when all hell broke loose! The guy responds, what? You think we work here for free! So I asked for a manager, he comes and he is even more rude than the boss boy and ruined the entire experience with my family witnessing the whole ordeal! In any case, just be aware of the terrible service that awaits you at this place.

I've been to this location several times, but lately, it feels like a complete money trap. The service is consistently slow and frustrating. We waited over 1.5 hours and only received about 6 pieces of meat in that time. They bring out meat every 15 minutes or so, and after just a couple of rounds (worth maybe $10-15 of food), you end up feeling full--not from the food but from the long waits in between. The sides we ordered never arrived, and they didn't bring the cornbread or cheese balls, which are usually staples at this restaurant. The waiter kept blaming the kitchen, saying it was busy, but it was a weekday, and the place was only half full. After waiting 75 minutes, and racking up a $200 bill, we left the restaurant still half hungry. The manager was polite and reduced the tip from the bill, but it didn't make up for the poor experience. The food was overpriced for what little we received. It's disappointing to see the decline in service here--what used to be a fun experience has turned into a frustrating, overpriced ordeal.

Busy night at the restaurant but that is not really an excuse. If you are seated at table 508 I guess it does not belong to a rotation as getting meat seems to be a miracle when it happens. Weak service quality. Too bad.

Great food, good service, and a nice ambiance. We really enjoyed our meal. The restaurant wasn't too busy which helped.

This is an awesome place! I love the unique Brazilian restaurant concept (I don't know anyone who wouldn't love the delicious meats here) and it's perfect for any type of celebration! Highly recommended! Tip. Their chicken is amazing, so don't just focus on the steaks and chops.

Copacabana is any carnivore's dream. All you can eat grilled meats and sides? COUNT. ME. IN. Copacabana is an AYCE Brazilian steakhouse which has several locations scattered throughout the GTA. It's known for its grilled meats that are carved table side by waiters and it's magnificent side dishes. The meat quality is out of this world and is always cooked to perfection. My favourites are the garlic sirloin, prime rib with cheddar and the roasted pineapple. The high quality and unlimited quantity does cost a pretty penny though, costing $80 per person during the weekend. So if you're just trying to hit your protein intake at a budget price, I'd look elsewhere. This place screams luxury. On certain days, there are live dancers and music - enhancing the dining experience even more. If you're ever looking for a great dining experience, definitely check one of its locations out!

10/10 experience. The food is absolutely incredible and the service is even better. I would highly recommend visiting this location.

I went to the restaurant on eglinton January 26 . I have been to many Brazilian restaurants and this is the first time that all the meat skewer that came to our table was all rare meats. All the other restaurants had the skewers some are med , some were well done as well. I had to wait 20 minutes each time to get well done meats. . If I wanted the steak to be cooked in the back room, I would have gone to a regular steak house. I did complain and all I got was sorry. Very bad customer service From the manager. Manager even came up to us and said next time we come back. they will make sure we get want we want. . News flash. There will NOT be a next time.

I've been to three of the Copacabana locations, this one was my least favorite. The staff is nice but the service just wasn't there, literally. We waited almost an hour for our drink, granted it was a pitcher, but that's just unacceptable especially because we asked twice for an update. They were out of lots of sides and we arrived at 7pm, I would understand if it was closer to closing. The food is great, but I wouldn't come to this location again.

Wow. DO NOT VISIT THIS RESTAURANT! If I could leave a 0 star I would!! What a disappointment and difference from the Copa Cabana of old. I decided to celebrate my birthday at Copa after not having been there in probably a decade. What a mistake. The food was good but the service was not. I'm taking, drinks taking so long that we started ordering 2 at a time, our table constantly being skipped over, and our side orders not being placed. That still wasn't going to get me to write a bad review but here's what did... We mentioned to the manager, Gary, about the service, the server and also commended "JP" who was the only one that ensured we got the things we ordered even though he was not a server. The manager did nothing except thank us for our feed back. Ok fine. When the bill came, there was an 18% gratuity automatically added (Party of 5) . We advised the person cashing us out that we would like to remove the tip and add a manual one ourselves. Shortly after this, the manager came back to our table and refused to take the tip off. He said that based on the fact that there was a birthday dinner (birthday patrons eat for free if there if there are at least 4 paying patrons) he could either charge me for the dinner or remove the tips. I had stayed quiet until this point, however at this point I spoke up. I explained to him that everyone was still intending to tip, cash, however based on the service we were not comfortable with the 18%. He insisted that he could not remove the tip so I asked him, based on the feedback he received, and that he had a table full of people who were extremely disappointed with the service, what he would offer as a solution. He offered for us to pay for all the dinners and remove the tip. Now, for the record, this was offering us absolutely nothing as we would then in fact be paying more. After asking him again if that's what he felt was the best he could offer, he said yes. When I told him ok, leave the tip and we would let the review speak for itself, he said they were used to that and left the table. This is the point that got to me. After the bills were paid, and the rest of my party left, I asked to speak with him again. I simply wanted to ask him why he was not willing to offer disappointed patrons any type of courtesy. I ended up asking for him twice, both times he looked over and walked away, never actually come to speak with me which I found extremely rude. This is clearly not the Copa of old, or a restaurant that appreciates their patrons. They are relying solely on merit which is quickly fading. Please do not visit this restaurant ever!

I have always loved this place up until recently. The food is very tasty and the concept is really fun. Unfortunately the cost of dinner for two people now it runs over $200. We had to make a $200 deposit to book for Valentine's Day. When the bill came, we said we already pre-paid $200 but they insisted we pay the whole bill and will be refunded our $200 the wet method in which we paid to hold the reservation. I thought that was extremely ridiculous. Considering now I'm out $475 and only 275 were for the meal. In addition to that, I've been there with they rip the bills out of everybody's hands because they forgot to add the tip to a group of six or more They often forget the side orders you've requested. I preferred it much much better when you went to the buffet yourself and selected the amount and you yourself would be assured you'd get what you wanted. Considering the huge price tag of a meal combined with the inattentive service at times, paired with limited rotation of all the meats and seafood available, it really isn't worth it. It may be up your alley if you want something different and have loads to spend but when you're spending that much I think you should get exactly what you want with very good service. That is not the case here any longer.

Service was very slow AND manager was extremely rude when I ask if a friend can join us after dinner just for a drink - he said to me " this type of customer doesn't pay our rent" . WOW . The meet is good, but not worth the silliness of the way the place is run (Yonge & Eglinton)

I've been here multiple times for multiple birthday parties. Absolutely love coming here! I had my birthday here last year. They do ask for a deposit now for large events, $20 per person. Ambiance is amazing as per usual :)

Food was delicious but service was subpar. Our food took a while to get to us and some items we ordered never even came. We brought this up to a waitress and it still never came. I still give it 4 stars because I really enjoyed what I did get to eat and the manager was incredible. he went out of his way to help my friend and was just very kind and hilarious. i will be going back and if the service doesn't redeem itself, it will be my last time.

Had a reservation for 730pm on my husbands birthday. Imagine we were seated after 930pm only until after my pregnant sister couldn't manage standing for another minute. Terrible the point of a reservation is to be seated at that time. We wasted 2 hours crammed in the entrance. Staff would not even give an accurate time kept saying in a few minutes. Horrible do not recommend food is okay but for all the waiting with a reservation is not realistic.

Oh Lord, you think for $50/person you can eat your heart out, but with eating meat after meat, you can get full real quick! The trick to this place is strategy! Right off the bat the waiter tells us there's 16 meats coming out to try, so we could start with hitting the buffet and grabbing some starters like salads, breads, and pasta. TIP: Serve the very minimal amount of everything just so you've had a little taste, the real food is on it's way! We tried to keep count and remember everything we ate, but by meat #7, we were only able to remember our faves, which was the Brazilian house steak and the filet mignon wrapped in bacon! Some other dishes that were pretty good were the Parmesan chicken and the fried bananas! Pro tip to try it all if you've never been, every time they come around, ask for small slivers of each to try. Don't feel the need to finish each portion right away as you can slowly scope out which ones you like best and reorder more of that at the end! The ambiance was also super cute because every so often they had a show with girls in full costume dancing and guys playing the drums. They also had a couple live singers up performing at the front. The staff were also amazing. Always checking on us to see what's up, what we liked, and what meats we wanted to come our way. Overall, very cool experience! A little pricey for a casual dinner but worth checking out for when you've got a special occasion or looking to try something new!

What an experience excellent food, great service and the ambiance was impeccable. We are definitely going back. The staff was very attentive, and the washrooms were clean. Can't ask for much more. Definitely worth the price!

I absolutely love this place. I think it's ideal for meat lovers. We were here Friday night when they have bigger selection of steaks, as well as chicken and fish. Also I love corn bread and cheese bans. I would recommend to come there a bit earlier like at 5-5:30 pm because there are less people and you will get food circulate faster around you and by the time you are done the music and show starts at 7 pm and you can enjoy it without worrying about getting fed. The salad bar has good selection of salads and cheeses, again I don't eat much there as I want to have enough space for steaks, they are excellent. The service is great as well, they do make sure you are fed well and tried all you wanted!

Service was weak, did not bring all the meat varieties. Low quality service. Food was fine but it was the same 3 meats over and over. Niagara Falls location has an ambiance that is much more elegant and clean. I would not suggest wasting your money on this. Instead get the proper experience at Niagara Falls or Vaughn. Eglinton is terrible.

Service! I look young so I was NOT catered to in the way I should I have, mainly ignored.

Reservation were made for 8pm but didn't get the table in time. The waitress just checked us in the waiting list at 8pm. I don't believe that's how reservations work as it's same as walk in

I came to Copacabana for my birthday celebration with my family. We came on a weeknight and it was actually hard getting reservations because of corporate Christmas events. Book in advance if you plan on coming here in near the holiday season! Service was great. Both our waitress and the waiters who come out with the meats were very friendly. You'll be given a coaster which has red and blue on either sides. Red represents "NO MORE MEAT!", and blue represents "PLEASE FEED ME MORE!". We successfully went through many rounds of "Blue". This is mainly because we had 3 guys at our table, who are competitive carnivores *thumbs up*. Part of the reason why we were able to go through so many rounds was because the "meat waiters" challenged the guys' meat-ability. The situation went down like this: Meat-waiter: "COM'ON.. CAN YOU HANDLE MORE?!" Our tables' competitive carnivores: *insert silent nod* and *flips coaster to blue* hahaha Highlights of the night include: * Parmesan cheese rib eye * Cheese infused prime ribs * Chimichurri steak * Corn bread (This was so gooood! We were planning not to try it but I was like.. meh, why not. Glad I did. The bread was sweet and spongy!) * Fried bananas

Reservation was made at 5 which is when the doors open. We were seated quickly. My boyfriend suggested not getting anything from the buffet because I would fill up quick. I didn't really listen and the meat took 30 minutes before it was ready to serve, so I ate a little more than I intended while waiting for the meat. However the wait I believe was only because we came as doors where opening. After the meat started coming it was constant and quick. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely incredible. My favorite was prime rib with cheese. Just wow. I can't wait to go back for that! My boyfriend has been many times and this is a place he wanted to take me, he's told me about it after many trips to visit him but we finally went. And was well worth the wait. They were also setting up a live band but we left before they had started. We also order Bellinis which were not what we expected. They aren't frozen drinks like the other restaurants. They were happy to get us another drink. We ordered pina coladas and they were perfect!

The food was good but since corona they haven't brought back the open salad bar which is a shame. That was one of the the main reasons why I used to go regularly
