I lovee this restaurant! I went with a Brazilian friend and she told me exactly what to choose and it was amazing. The waiters are very welcoming and the service was fast. The decoration is so pretty and cozy.

Charming little Brazilian restaurant, with nice decor. Service was a little slow, as took 15 minutes from being seated for a server to take my drink and food order. Food however, was quickly delivered and presented well. It was a large portion (I actually couldn’t eat it all) and it had plenty of flavour. Good choice of cocktails. Good value for money. I will return when next in Lyon.

The food was great. We had the pleasure to try good Brazilian food and drinks. It was recommended by colleagues and we had one Brazilian guest who said it was authentic tasting. The highlight though was the dancer. She is on fire and a pleasure. She heats up the place with her charisma.

Great little restaurant. Super busy and the food was delicious. Service could have been better, but I guess being such a busy restaurant and it being Saturday the staff was a bit flustered. However, the owner was very attentive and nice and once I mentioned the service, he made sure it didn’t happen anymore. From then on service was great. Highlight of the night was definitely the dancer, which brought a really fun vibe to the evening. I would definitely come back.

I read through a range of reviews to gather different perspectives. I will do my best to provide an objective evaluation. I was slightly disappointed because I had expected larger portions and was surprised to find that mutton was not included among the ingredients. Additionally, I found it confusing to keep track of my progress during the meal. It would have been helpful if they clearly indicated whether I was on my 3rd out of 7 courses or 4th out of 8. In fact, at the end of the meal, there was some confusion regarding whether the courses were complete or not. Personally, I still felt hungry after finishing the meal. If you expect the churrasco menu to be sufficient on its own, it may not be. I would recommend ordering additional items to ensure you have enough food. On a positive note, the waiters and the entire team were very friendly and welcoming. However, I observed that the restaurant has two reservation time slots: 7pm and 9pm. Throughout the meal, we were repeatedly asked if we had finished, which made me feel somewhat uncomfortable due to the perceived pressure. This rushed us to finish our meal and hurried us to the billing process. I'm uncertain if this is part of Brazilian food culture. I gave the restaurant a three-star rating because I had higher expectations for the overall dining experience.

What an amazing restaurant. The food and atmosphere were just great. I’m a coeliac and the chef was able to offer me a massive choice of mains and desserts. Thank you for a great evening.

Incredibly close to the metro station, this was a nice place to dine. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting, and the Brazilian dancing throughout the night really brought even more life into the place. All of our meals were delicious, it’s just a shame that the servers were not kind to our group at all. One member of our group since receive their meal for a long time because the server forgot to add it to their system. We managed to have a good time regardless.

I am very much glad that we came here. A speaker big thank to Daniel who served is with food, who was super warm to us and kind.

The ambience and the service were nice, good location near parking. The food was sub par. I will not return.
