"Oasis Brazilian Steakhouse first opened in 1989, at a time when the Brazilian population of Medford was growing tremendously. Homesick regulars flooded the establishment for its delicious and affordable Brazilian fare, namely the fatty and rich picanha cut of steak, feijoada (a bean stew with beef and pork), and the freshly baked pão de queijo, the iconic Brazilian cheese bread that would sell out within minutes after being taken out of the oven. Now, owner Luiz Santos is embracing a change in the restaurant’s clientele. “We’re seeing new faces every day,” Santos says, a change that he attributes to the fact that Oasis is now a 12-minute walk from the new Ball Square stop. “January is always a slow month for us but there has been a 7 to 8 percent increase in terms of sales because of the increased traffic.”" - Valerie Li Stack

"Putting some sort of meat and some sort of starch in a pot and letting the contents of that pot cook for a long time over a low flame is universal. Vaca atolada is a traditional Brazilian stew from the Minas Gerais region, which combines beef ribs, cassava, garlic, tomatoes, onions, and ground urucum seed, among other spices. After stewing for many hours, the sauce takes on an almost mud-like appearance, hence the name of the dish, which translates roughly to “cow stuck in the mud.” Wash it all down with some cachaça, Brazil’s most popular spirit, which is made with fermented sugarcane juice. Oasis Brazilian Restaurant features the stew as a special on Monday nights. Mark your calendars accordingly. Oasis Brazilian Restaurant is open for indoor dining, takeout, and delivery." - Tommy Ranucci

1. Suspicious scale!!! After weighing two small plates that weighed 0.765 and 0.795 lbs, I wanted to test the weight of two very light “mini bite fried treats.” The cashier refused to weigh them, which seemed odd. I had to insist twice, and she finally weighed them at 0.355 lb. It felt ridiculous! She seemed to know what was going on, so she quickly charged me “$1.00” without showing the weight in the check!!! 2. Lack of transparency!! 18% service charge with no disclosure in the menu!! For a party of one + self-served off the buffet? Seriously? 3. There are no prices in the menu! Everything about this place is a SCAM. And the food is not even good. If you will risk going anyways, bring an empty plate to the scale and ask them to Tare it before they weight your meal.

I went for the second time and this is a very good place, with great service, very good food, steakhouse and good promotions. Super clean and organized bathrooms and there is even room to change children. Brazilian cuisine foods, with great seasoning, plenty of space to sit and talk.

I absolutely love this place. Fantastic barbecue and plantain are basically all I require when I go, but there are some yummy sides. I love that you pay by weight, which also makes it an awesome takeout place. Parking is not easy so be prepared to take some time with that. Once inside, it’s very cheery and comfortable, usually with a big screen of soccer going. Wonderful staff.

Great meat and Brazilian sides, and very plentiful servings ; good drinks (American style, overloaded with ice), and the very friendly service (though not always fluent in English). It's a bit of a sports bar, as might be expected from the nation that leads the world in real football, and there are a couple of nice big screens. Parking can be challenging a neighbors have forced the place to now close at 10:00 p.m.. a good non pretentious Brazilian Steakhouse !

Ordered from uber eats. They had a special going on “buy 1, get 1 free” meals. I added the sides as extra. Great packaging, tasty and fresh food.

The foods not bad but there are better Brazilian restaurants near,the music is too loud,and 18% gratuity is included mind you it was only me and my mom & this practice is normally for parties of 6 and above (they do not inform you of this beforehand).

Great food!!! Freshly cooked. Warm and friendly servers! Great atmosphere. Will come back!

The food is honestly great — no complaints there. But the customer service, especially at the cashier, really brings the experience down. The staff comes off as if they’re doing you a favor, not providing a service. You can have the best product in the world, but if you don’t treat people with respect, it’s hard to keep them coming back.

Food is good Service fells unfair, the reason of sitting have your mail and not asking for anything waitress comes to get your receipt to add her tips even when you don't want anything. I had dessert and cake was horribly dry.

We went to Oasis because we love Brazilian bbq and had a two for one coupon. It was a bit Chaotic upon our arrival. But we finally were directed to a table. Tables are set up in a cafeteria style which is very informal. Not a problem but no privacy. So the food bar was past the entrance and into another area. The wait staff was very nice and friendly. I got some salad and s vegetable medley with some Potatoes and other veggies. I thought it would be great with the protein that I chose. When I sat down to eat after the salad I found the veggie mix was ineatable as it was loaded with salt! The meat was rather over cooked and dry. The meat I chose was lamb and prime rib. A sad loss for those cuts of meat. I tried another plate with asparagus and more salad and chicken. The meat was all over cooked and tough as shoe leather. The ambiance was busy with the lunch crowd of local workers watching Hispanic music videos. Not family friendly. I was very disappointed! It took about 20 minutes to get the coupon "ok'ed" I'm so glad we didn't pay full price because I would have been very angry. One note: there was one bathroom for both men and women in a restaurant for nearly 80 people! However, it was clean which really appreciated. And the staff was very very nice people.

Overall: very average place with not much to write home about. Epitomizes quantity over quality but still very solid. Strong flavors and well seasoned but nothing too exciting and creative. Would absolutely come back on an empty stomach and needing a protein fix. Food: the steak was extremely tough and maybe over cooked. Well seasoned and good flavors. The beans are stewed well and the rice is fluffed. The fries are more "potato-ey" but well fried. Lemon chicken pasta similarly was large and well seasoned but heavy. Ambience/Decor/Service: sports bar vibe with plenty of large party seatings and a plethora of tvs. The service was quick and attentive so long as you got their attention and the staff was extremely nice and welcoming!

Never listen to Yelp. Why? Because this place has the same rating as Fogo De Chao. These are the people to whom you're trusting your gut. Oasis is that uncommon combination of good and unique. They're what (I think) is called a "kilo" - where you go up, pile your plate high with as much meat, salad and nonsense as you want and then pay by the weight. It's kind of interesting, you get to know how many pounds your stomach can fit. Like knowing the capacity of your gas tank. But it's also a lot of stress - how are you supposed to know how much meat you need? They keep cutting and so you're like "yeah, okay" and then all of a sudden you have to figure out what to do with a sliced half of cow. If you can tolerate that kind of trauma, what you get is an excellent meal with flavors that are hard to find anywhere around. Their salads are excellent, they have this okra and chicken dish I can't pronounce that's ridiculous and their meat, of course, is an experience. Picanha is probably the best thing there - it's usually perfectly cooked, salty and blends well with the piles of other things you have on your plate. The place is also pretty cavernous. They occasionally have music which is occasionally good. They also have Brazilian beers which may be the only good ones in Latin America. Definitely highly recommend this place. I've been there too many times to be comfortable reporting here.

A Wise Woman once told me: There is nothing more satisfying than sinking your teeth into a tender steak; having three droplets of its blood slide down below your left cheekbone; and feeling the basin of flavored flesh and juice slide down your gullet. While I, for one, may venture to argue that there are some more satisfying things, we can settle on the proverbial "different strokes for different folks." What I can AUTHORITATIVELY say is that Oasis Brazilian Steakhouse is an exemplary venue to satisfy yourself in the style of the Wise Woman: find a tender steak, sink your thirty-two (32) or fewer teeth into it, feel the juice of its flesh squirt out under your left cheekbone if you're luck, and let the slab of steak slither down your throat. In a recent take-out order, I indulged in sampling the BIFE À CAVALO and FEIJÃO TROPEIRO. The former gave the steak experience--it was well-seasoned, juice, tender, and topped with two oozy eggs. The latter is a rich concoction that includes everything from a fat pig's skin to a collard green to yucca's own flour. Both of these items were VOLUPTUOUS and constituted near three (3) meals. And indeed, the value is high: a large amount of food for the price we must pay. I have seen reviews from foul-mouthed individuals berating and defacing the value and quality of Oasis Brazilian Steakhouse's food. Like with any disinformation campaign, the content of these reviews must be treated with the highest level of skepticism. Spite shall only breed more spite. Thus I recommend Oasis Brazilian Steakhouse. There are vegetarian options as well.

I've come here dozens of times over the past decade, typically for take-out but I've sat in a few times. My most recent visit was the first time back in awhile. They have amazing, authentic Brazilian food. I ordered the Vegetable Fajitas while my friend opted for the buffet which you pay by weight or if you get a lot of food, it's a flat charge. The fajitas were made carrots, zucchini and onions and came with 3 tortillas, white rice + black beans, greens, spicy pico de gallo, cheese, and sour cream. The cheese was not good but they replaced it immediately. It was great but I wish there was a variety of different veggies. Additionally, I had their okra and cauliflower cheese (which I thought was mac) and they were delicious (highly recommend the caulifower cheese). My friend wasn't a big fan of the strawberry mango smoothie but we both loved the mango juice. I tried his chicken stroganoff and the sauce was perfection. The service was great, Junia was our first server but Amanda also came by so we had 2 waitresses essentially and they were very attentive and friendly. They had live music which was good but made it hard to talk. They have great desserts if you have room too. Ambience: 4/5 Food: 4.5/5 Drinks: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Oasis: 4.6/5

Did a delivery order and by the time the food got to me, it was still warm! Everything was full of flavor!! The portions were huge!! My only complaint is the collards were a little salty! But otherwise a delicious meal!

Decided to try this place for lunch because it was close by and had good reviews. I ordered on Menufy and went over to the restaurant, but accidentally walked into the bakery (there are two separate entrances). The worker there was helpful and redirected me to the restaurant the next door down, where I found a decently long line of patrons speaking Portuguese. I picked up my Isca de Peixe (catfish fritters and fries) and ate at the outdoor seating. It was a very generous portion for $10, and the food was pretty good. The tenders were a little bland, but crunchy and tasty nonetheless. The menu has a ton of options, so I would definitely come back to try something new!

Unreasonably expensive stomach ache and heartburn, with mediocre flavor at best for comfort. Sadly, that was our experience. Family of five plus 2 adult friends wanted to get together and have some Brazilian BBQ. Total of 4 adults and 3 kids ages 2, 4 and 6. Walked in on a Thursday evening. The restaurant was not busy at all. The grill had very limited selection of meats. The food bar had food that clearly has been sitting around for a bit. As a group we tried pretty much everything there. Our friends had a combination of the food bar dishes and some BBQ meat from the grill. The kids ate very limited scraps of steak meat. My wife had steak meat as well, and some of the famous Brazilian cheese bread. Myself, had also steak meat and some chicken hearts (which I needed to ask for as there were none initially, the grill man was nice and went down to the cellar to grab some skewers of chicken heart from somewhere), and some potato salad from the bar and some fresh tomato slices. The steak meat tasted ok, not flavorful but ok. The chicken hearts tasted not good at all. I left most on my plate. The cheese bread was cold, also not flavorful. Our friends didn't say much about their food but most of it remained on their plates at the end of the meal. When we didn't want to eat any more food, we went for a couple of desserts. The flan was good, the rice pudding was decent. The bill was about $260 excluding tip. Each child was automatically charged $20, all you can eat for kids. Each adult was automatically charged $28, all you can eat for adults. Drinks (soda, fresh OJ) and desserts made up the rest. After paying, my wife was puzzled at the kids being charged - they couldn't and didn't eat much. When we inquired, the staff said that children over 3 year old are charged that. And so after complaining, they refunded $20 for our 2 y/o. We had to chase them multiple times, and sit and wait for them to refund that $20. Honestly had the food and experience been amazing, we would've cared a little less about the price even if it is not a small sum. But then that night we all without exception had a combination of heartburn, diarrhea and vomiting. I woke up a couple of times during the night to run to the bathroom. My friend who has the stomach of a recycling facility also had a "disturbance in the force". My wife did remind me that the last time we went to Oasis, years ago, I said never again Oasis because of the same issue of food quality. This time, truly, never again Oasis.

We were thrilled with our first visit to Oasis! Huge quantities of tasty food at a reasonable price. The menu satisfied several picky eaters in our group, even vegetarians were impressed with all their options! Staff were warm and gracious, and did a great job of accommodating my hungry 3 year old. We will be back, can't wait to try dessert.

Use to be good, now is the meat have no good quality and the food in general is worse Be there today and I'll never come back .

I felt the food was just mediocre. The meat was dry and everything lacked taste (except for the tomato sauce thing). The people were friendly. Parking was a pain, so prob not worth going back for me.

Jamin B.

Value: good Quality: lil salty and overcooked, but decent. The beef is quite good, chicken a little dry, pork rib was pretty good. Potato salad was good. Fries were really dry. Cheese bread was good but nothing spectacular. Quality: more than sufficient Better than most Brazilian bbq restaurants that aren't overpriced? Yes.

J K.

Yelp
They charge you hidden fees (18% "service fee", even if you go to the buffet). This is extremely dishonest as they make you think you're paying a certain price, then when it's too late to do anything about it, they bump it by by nearly 20 percent. I'll never go back there again. Disgusting.

First of all, when my cousin and I walked in here, it was later in the evening, but we'd like to go out later, so that's not unusual for us. We didn't have anywhere to sit right away on account of the fact that there was a large party celebrating a birthday that actually didn't deter us because we like celebrations however, the people we sat with could not be more rude. For some reason they continue to glare at us, especially the women who we hadn't even had a chance to introduce ourselves to an acted in the most abhorrent behavior. Eventually, the waitress came to our table, but she wasn't very friendly either. I'm not really sure what is going on in the culture, but it's very unlike mine. I happen to be from Ireland, so we welcome strangers in with the utmost happiness and glee For the remainder of the evening it was hard to go to the bathroom on the counter so many people being there, and there was a gentleman, or lack there of who started making comments. I of course put him in his place because that's what I do and we left there feeling very disillusioned. I called the next day, but I was met with a tone of indifference. I would absolutely consider any other place in Medford especially Bocelli's across the street for an alternate experience. The people are extremely nice friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is good and the food is always 100%. I would skip the oasis as it's not really ironically, a heavenly place in a desert, but more of a nightmare in an urban back trap

I like that at Oasis, you can have buffet food and enjoy what you want and you get charged for that pretty fairly. If you don't eat so much, they will just charge you based on weight of the food you got. Else, if you eat quite a bit (and exceed certain weight/price threshold), you pay just a flat rate. Whether you just eat a lot or eat like a hungry person who didn't eat for the past 3 days, you pay the same fixed flat price. Super fair game. The buffet has some selection of food including fruit and salad, some dish with some small amount of meat in it and some carb like rice or bread. Else, if you are a meathead or crave Brazilian grilled meats, you can pay extra for the grilled meat buffet, too. The environment at Oasis is casual...not as high end or as expensive as a well known chain fogo de chao rodizio meats by any means Many people (customers or waiters/waitresses) speak Spanish, too, so I guess it is a decent place. Too bad though that desserts and drinks aren't included in the buffet. If you want dessert, you can pay a la carte or buy them from their sister bakery store next door. I tried their passion fruit mousse and I actually quite liked it! Very reasonable price, too!

Their Desserts are INSANELY EXPENSIVE. This place is expensive in general but they seriously overcharge their desserts & keep making them smaller. I came here for years & I remember vividly all the desserts use to come in much bigger packaging/more amount for much cheaper. Portions KEEP getting smaller as their prices go up way higher. I can't support them anymore. The only way for them to stop is for people to stop buying it. It's unacceptable. Oh yeah and parking sucks.

Oasis is the homiest brazilian steakhouse I've ever been to. It feels like you've walked into a family holiday. The tables are really close together to be ready to squeeze past a lot of chairs. There was live music and everyone was kissing each other for some reason. Very jolly. What I like about Oasis was you can pay per lb of food (per plate) or you can do all you can eat for $19.99, but you don't have to decide right away. You can weigh your first dish and decide then, so I a good amount of meat on my first plate and it was still only $12. I didn't think I could eat any more so I decided against all you could eat. The food that was not meat was not the most fresh, like the bread was hard and there were a few hairs on some of the dishes, but the meat was good for the price you were paying. I felt pressured to only get a few types because people were behind me, but what I tried I liked. We went on a Saturday night so the place was packed. It was hard to get the attention of the waitress for drinks, so for those going in at busy times, try to actively get the attention of a waitress before you eat all of your food.

Yelp
Saw the cook using a paper towel to char the meat on a grill ??? Very weird and I don't think that's Service Safe but.. besides that; they add an 18% gratuity to your bill even if you do takeout then try to get you to double tip. You only get this charge if you're not a "regular" or don't speak Portuguese I've noticed too. The food is pretty sub par but cheap. Avoid potatoes unless you're trying to spend $60 on a $20 plate.

Always great Brazilian food and excellent service! Lately they have live music too, although some said it's too loud for dinner, hard to have a conversation.

Vivian C.

Yes, you can bring a cake here. They'll even store an ice cream for you in their freezer if need be. On a Sunday for lunch, our options were to order off the menu, or go for the buffet at $8.49 per pound or $19.99 AYCE. On weekdays they have an additional offering of AYCE buffet without the bbq meat for $11.99, but that wasn't available for our visit. But that's okay. I filled my plate for $15.62 and was plenty full. Their brisket off the buffet table was surprisingly good, though I was sad to see no pão de queijo (thus avoiding a very real risk of stuffing myself silly with those lovely cheese rolls). The sirloin I could have done without, the pork was a tad dry, but I loved the beef rib, the chicken wing, and the chicken wrapped in bacon. Be proactive if you want something less well done. The fries were good - I even saw one gentleman with a plate loaded with white rice, fries, and a large slice of beef, though likely he was going the AYCE route and this was but one of his courses. Tip: don't try to go full on with the meat - you'll want to cut the salt intake with something sweet or green (though probably not at the same time). Their beautiful dessert display is not included in the buffet, but I did spy a simple yellow cake on the hot food counter by the french fries. I picked up a piece and quite liked it!

Paula M.

Yelp
One of the worst meals I've ever had. I ordered a sirloin steak medium rare. What I received was a 3/8" thick piece of shoe leather that was not juicy or medium rare. The waitstaff consisted of three women, none of whom cared to attend to me. I had to go to the bar to get my check, despite already requesting it from one of the waitstaff. I was not provided w/napkins, nor did I receive any follow-up check-ins about my meal, did I need anything else, etc. I would provide negative stars if I could. No not recommend. Waste of $45!

Mark A.

Yelp
Diamond in the rough, but clearly a recommend! Their take-out is great, I couldn't believe the portion sizes (especially for the price). I ordered the Salmon, and it was cooked/seasoned perfectly. My wife ordered the appetizer combo, and enjoyed every option (would be great if there was an add-on option for plantains). Very "home cooking", hearty portions, kinda place. If you're not local, look them up on a food delivery service. Pleasantly surprised to have stumbled across them, and look forward to trying additional menu items.

Jessica M.

Yelp
The food was really good and affordable. They sell it per pounds or as a all you can eat for $19.99. 2 stars because they add gratuity to my check. If I didn't look over the bill I would have added more tip on the tip line when they already charged me 18%. When asked the server said "oh I can take it off if you like." Well why put it on in the first place? Then when she swiped my card and bring back the copy for me to sign the tip line was blank insinuating that they haven't charged it already. So look out for that when eating here.

Was disappointed with my delivery from Oasis. :( Bobó de camarão was NOT good at all. I couldn't eat it basically. According to my partner, the meat was not good quality (although I suppose the prices are low). Would definitely go to Muqueca for bobó next time. The vegetarian stuff was good enough I suppose. Yucca and rice and beans and mashed potatoes were all pretty good. Collard greens a bit too garlicky. I miss the old Oasis!

Oasis, "Wonderfall" Today is gonna be the day That they're gonna weigh your food for you By now you should've somehow Realized what you gotta choose I don't believe that anybody Loves this buffet more than I do, how about you now Back beat, the word is on the street That Oasis is the best about I'm sure you've heard it all before But I don't really have a doubt I don't believe that anybody Loves Oasis more than I do, let's go right now... And all the roads we have to drive are winding (after all, this is Boston) And all the lights that lead us there are blinding (turn off your brights, Masshole) There are many dish names here that I would like to say to you but I don't know how... Because maybe You're gonna be the one that pays for me And after all Let's sit by the wall... I said maybe I'll eat this so fast you can race me And after all This food's wonderfall... So I'm not sure if you read my review for Oasis Bakery next door, which is off-the-charts 5-star Brazilian Acai Bowls and Caldo De Cana (Sugar Cane juice, fresh squeezed) as well as sucos and jugos (fruit drinks, so good), but as good as it is, this Brazilian buffet that is next door, is every bit as good, and may be the best Brazilian buffet I've ever had, including the ones in Brazil. What to get: All the buffet items, especially the fish stews, feijoada (beans and pork, it looks black), and other wet dishes. The wets is the best. Why: Because Liam and Noel told you to, and they will beat each other - and you - up, if you don't. Oasis is the primary reason why Boston went from "place I don't go to for food" to "place I break speed limits to get to for food." Yes, the BBB at Toscanini and the Gelato at Morano in the Chestnut Hill Mall are utterly incredible. But Oasis makes every other New England eatery seem bland. And I mean both the bakery next door, and this amazing buffet, known as a "Steakhouse." I thought Brazil would be heaven because of the girls. And boys. And such. Little did I know, it would be the drinks there that would rock my world most of all. As well as the only alcoholic beverage I actually love (Caipirinha) which is available here although I haven't tried it, and the gems such as Acai Na Tigela and Caldo De Cana, available next door, my food fave in Brazil is definitely, easily, the soups and stews and amazing dishes at the weighed buffets. NYC has a few of these weighed buffets but none, nowhere, are as good as Oasis. There are 2 Oases side by side, actually. Same owners, totally different interior. This one is the Steakhouse, which is a weighed buffet of Brazilian food, and is a *must try* for absolutely everyone. I do believe you can order the items from the Cafe menu off the Steakhouse menu, so you should head over there if you're hungry. Or go here for lunch, and then go in there for dessert and snacks. Brazilian weighed buffet is to the lower income people of Brazil, what Churrascaria is to the rich. It must be tried. Insanely good. From next door, you need to get the Acai Bowl and the Caldo De Cana. So back to the buffet. Definitely try all the wet items, and have a little bit of everything to see what you think. Bear in mind it is quite pricey, so don't overload your plate or you could easily pay $20. I'm aware that it's overpriced, but I feel it's so worth it. The only sad part is that they weigh based on the meats (Churrascaria style), so if you're just here for the soups and stews, which are by nature heavy, you're getting really overcharged. Still, very worth it. The meats themselves are good, but it's not the reason I give 5 stars. I much prefer the Churrascaria meats in the chains (or locally owned) rich-person steakhouses such as Fogo De Chao, Texas De Brazil, and so on. There is nowhere in Boston I would emplore you to visit more than the 2 Oases, side by side in Medford. This one for the wet stews in the weighed buffet, and then next door for some of the best Brazilian drink treats ever. I just got dealt a hand of cards, I need at least two aces in order to win this game, hold on... (looks at cards) OH, ACES!

I am never ordering the food again. It's unbelievable the miss communication of Brazilians working together. Wrong side. And wrong price. After saying the wrong price to the driver he still was stubborn to charge me wrong.

Our experience at oasis was a great disappointment and less than expected. We arrived at 9pm with a group of 5. We were promptly seated and ordered and waited a total of 40 minutes for food that arrived cold. Steak requested well done arrived raw. Some plates even had to be reheated. We will not return.

We ordered the Brazuka for take out and did not expect an entire tray of food for 2 ppl. It was enough food to last another 2 meals. It came with chicken, steak, pork, sausage and more chicken. Wish we would have gotten less chicken but it was still delicious. It was served over a massive pile of rice and fries. The person who took our order tried to suggest us to get a salad instead of the Farofa. He said we wouldn't like it but it was interesting to try. It also came with potato salad which I loved. Covered in a sweet mayo dressing. Also came with beans. It was very overwhelming but delicious. Chicken was dry but well seasoned.

food is trash and over priced just hope you take my advice save ur money go somewhere else. food is over cooked and not seasoned and if you like it then well you don't know good food and prob a chicken tender and fries type of person word.

The food was decent, the people and customer service was very nice. Basically it is a buffet where you go and pick out your food. But with the meat they give OD. Like I know you can tell them to give you less but they give so much I was ready to pass out on one serving. It wasn't a fancy place but looks more like a delivery fast food then a nice restaurant. But overall the food was okay

The price for the non-BBQ buffet is quite good (12$ + tax + tip), but unfortunately the food is just ... too cold. I am guessing that the BBQ meats are still hot, so the way to go is probably doing the per-pound food including the BBQ meat. The buffet had a small selection of (nicely warm) meat dishes and (super cold) other stuff. For example, the fried shrimp was very cold and also very salty. I normally love cheesy bread, but it was so cold that it wasn't very good. Overall, the food was alright, but the temperature issues were just a critical failure.

Absolutely delicious. You want affordable AYCE Brazilian bbq? Come here Wide selection of meats, lots of different side dish options (cheese bread, fried yucca and plantains is really all you need). Get your salt/meat fix

Oasis Brazilian Steakhouse is an oasis of Brazilian fare in the neighborhood! I had previously been to the cafe & bakery next door, so when I saw this restaurant's deal on the Food for All app, I knew I had to go for it. The app deal is just $5, and you can fill up an entire container from their buffet!! You just have to purchase it beforehand on the app and go during the set time window (8:45-9:45 PM when I got it). We were handed our containers at the desk, and went for it! There's such a variety of foods, but make sure you take a look before you start filling to figure out placement and amounts for each. There are salads, fruits, rice, beans, pao de queijo, potatoes, stews, pork, fried fish, cornbread, and even some pastries. Everything in my container kind of mixed together, so I can't really recommend anything specifically, but it all tasted good and was super satisfying. One container of food was 2 dinners for me! Such an amazing deal, and it's made even sweeter by the fact that you're helping reduce food waste, since much of this food would've had to have been thrown out at the end of the night.

Came here last Friday evening with a group of friends. The place was busy but we managed to get a table for 8. The service is slow. It took about 15 mins for someone to ask what we wanted for drinks. It took another 15 mins for them to bring out water. I noticed there was only 3 waitress working. For the food, it was good. I love their white rice. Well seasoned and pack of flavors. Their chicken heart was good but kind of over salted. The must have are their short ribs. It's so good and seasoned perfectly. I had to empty out their whole rod because it was that good. Unlimited meat for a cheap price, I can't complain about that. It was worth it.

We went late on a friday night and the barbeque was still going. The beef was juicy and pefectly cooked. I thi k i probably had close to a pound of meat. I added salad from the buffet and all for less than 6 dollars. The spicy sausage madein house was great and the cheese bread balls my favourite. We didnt really have room for dessert sp the 3 of us shared the chocolate flan which was a huge portion and the right amount of sweet. The cashier and waitress were super nice and helpful. Great food for the price.

The portions were large but the food was just ok. The mixed platter of BBQ was pretty food - the steak and pork in there were my favorites. Everything else was kind of meh

We came here for lunch twice in the past month. We ordered the Bazuka meal. This entree probably can feed enough for four people but my husband and I, of course, have hungry eyes so we order this knowing we probably won't be able to finish it. But the good part is, we can take it back home and enjoy it later or for lunch the next day! We also order this appetizer, it's yucca and top sirloin. Very delicious. The beef is flavorful. The Bazuka meal comes with 5 choices of meat (beef, chicken, pork and/or sausage), rice, beans, and French fries. On Saturday and Sunday, it comes with potato salad. The portions are fairly large and it's about $27. I think it's worth it. Everything was pretty flavorful and tasty. They also offer buffet selection and you can just grab food and pay per plate. They are losing a star because their service is a bit slow. Overall, this place is worth a try! Go try it out especially if you are a meat lover!

Awesome food! We came to Boston on vacation and tried this place after getting a lot of recommendations. We got the $19.99 lunch buffet. Lots of meat options and lots of sides. The meat line was fast and great service! The sides were tasty. I loved the black beans, rice and salad. Our waitress was very nice, she was was quick. The service was great! For dessert we got coconut flan and tiramisu. The coconut flan was AMAZING! So tasty and delicious! If you like coconut make sure you get it! ***Food- Yummy, awesome ***Service awesome ***Atmosphere- Fun, laid back

Not the traditional Brazilian stake house I was looking for and not a big selection of meat or said bar options

My boyfriend and I came here on Valentine's Day, and we were happy with our visit overall. It was lovely because even though it was a holiday, the restaurant was busy but we didn't feel rushed or overwhelmed. We ordered the Brazuka, which comes with five cuts of meat that you can pick. We got one of everything, and it was enough for us to eat and take some home. The Brazuka might be enough food for three people (if they have reasonable appetites hehe). The meats come with a few sides, like rice, beans, roasted flour, fries, potato salad. All of it was good, but it would have been great to be able to get sides from the buffet! I had the chocolate flan for dessert, and he had the passion fruit mousse which were both great. Parking can be an issue here, especially in the winter when the snow is stealing parking spaces, keep that in mind if you decide to come on a busy night. Overall, we'd recommend it!

Another bomb Brazilian steakhouse hidden in somerville. I stopped by because while I was driving my friend home I smelled their grilling meats in the air. Who can resist that? I'd be a balloon if I lived nearby. I got a combo plate to go to bring back for my brother and me, and I was the happiest camper. The steak and pork were absolutely phenomenal. Here is my word of advice: if you want the best quality meat, go when it's busy. This way you don't have overcooked meat and you're sure to get it all while it's hot. I did not do this and paid the price with overcooked chicken hearts. Not a big deal they're usually overcooked if you're not getting them fresh. If you're craving Brazilian come here (or order delivery), it's soo good.

What a scam! The estimate on Eat Street for our order came out to $14.33. We gave the delivery driver a $20 and he demanded even more tip. Tossed him a couple extra bucks laying around the house. In the long run, this saved us money because we will no longer patron here for its skeptical business practices. The drive was about 11 minutes but it took over an hour for the food to arrive. Definitely did not deserve 54% tip we provided. ***Edit on 04/28/2016: Luis, we placed EatStreet Order #4269205 at 12:38 PM on 04/21/2016 for menu items #405 and #9.

3.5 though. I've had Oasis before in takeout on various occasions. First time being in the restaurant. It's pretty relaxing with the TVs on. Lots of foot traffic in the restaurant, but still good enough to have conversations and whatnot. Their buffet is pretty cool as they have 2 pricing plans, which either charges by weight of plate or a flat AYCE cost. They will charge you the lower of the 2, depending on how much you eat. I focused on the meat, and it tasted pretty good, except for the fact that it's salty after a while. Had it not been, I would have eaten more. The other buffet food offerings are good too, except the pineapple I had tasted off. There are other sweet options, but most of them are of a separate charge, like a cake or dessert.
