A Popular Brazilian Steakhouse Is Heading Into Center City - Eater Philly

"Picanha Brazilian Grill, originally from Northeast Philly, is opening a second location in Center City. It will offer a menu of grilled steak, chicken, and pork served rodizio style, along with a salad bar featuring a variety of dishes and desserts. The original location at 6501 Castor Avenue is a BYOB, and the new location is expected to open in mid-March, potentially before obtaining a liquor license." - Rachel Vigoda

Samba is nothing short of a culinary gem! From the moment I stepped inside, I was enveloped by a warm, inviting atmosphere that truly felt like home. The highlight of my meal was the AMAZING garlic steak—juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The depth of flavor was simply unforgettable! The variety of meats offered was impressive, each one more delicious than the last. Whether you're a fan of tender cuts or love the bold flavors of seasoned meats, Samba has something to satisfy every palate. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a place that combines fantastic food with a welcoming vibe, Samba is the place to be! We came for my birthday but can't wait to return for another feast!

This place is such an amazing restaurant. The atmosphere is tranquil and peaceful, the food is immaculate. All the meat is cooked perfectly and the waiters come out at the perfect times, the drinks are amazing as well. They have a wonderful array of sides that really compliment the meat. This is the first restaurant I’ve ever been to where THE OWNER personally comes out to see if everything is going good and up to par. they have a signature shot that was simply amazing. I came here for my birthday and I must say they made it a perfect way to celebrate. Highly recommend 10/10

Chill spot. We came in late so it was quiet. We sat by the window and a gentle breeze came in off the streets. The food was excellent and the service was just the right amount of attentive. The restaurant itself was clean and had a great vibe. I loved the glass wine cellar and the playlist was perfect. Highly recommend. It’s just far away enough from all the nonsense of center city. We found street parking right out front also 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

I don’t even know where to start this Brazilian steakhouse was an absolute dream! The unlimited hot and cold sides were something I’ve never experienced before, and every single one was delicious. Especially them chicken wings! Omg! Pair that with perfectly cooked meats for Restaurant Week, and I was in heaven! I was already too full before I could even try everything, but trust me, next time, I’m coming back ready to taste it all. The hospitality was top-tier everyone worked together seamlessly, so kind and polite. To top it off, the owner/manager treated us to a complimentary red wine that paired beautifully with the meats. Great choice! The lamb was seasoned to perfection, but that beef short rib? I’m coming back for that! And don’t even get me started on the cinnamon pineapple the best I’ve had yet. Super sweet! This place is a must-visit. Have that short rib and pineapple ready for me I’ll be back soon! 🔥🥩🍍

It was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly attentive and welcoming. The services was top-notch super friendly, professional, and always checking to make sure we had everything we needed. The food was amazing, every cut of meat was cooked to perfection, and the variety was fantastic. The sides and salad bar were fresh and delicious as well. We felt truly celebrated and taken care of. Thank you, Samba Steak House for making our night so special. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Samba Steakhouse is our new go-to. The service is unmatched with from the moment you are greeted at the door to the manager, Renato, stopping by to introduce himself and see how he could make our already stellar experience even better. We initially stopped into Samba for a drink prior to dinner. We were so impressed that we skipped dessert at the restaurant we had reserved to go back to Samba for a nightcap! 10/10 would recommend whether you’re in the mood for an authentic Brazilian steakhouse experience or a drink and app at the bar.

I’ve been here twice, and we always leave with big smiles and happy hearts! The service is truly amazing! The owner is so kind and friendly. The food is beyond delicious, and the caipirinha? Absolutely amazing! This restaurant definitely deserves a full 10 stars. I really hope it keeps this wonderful vibe forever!

The salad bar is fresh and plentiful, but the real star is the juicy, perfectly cooked steak. The relaxed vibe makes it easy to settle in and enjoy a great meal with friends or family. Don’t skip the cocktails—they’re just as good as the food.
