Excellent salad bar, and awesome meats. I loaded up on picanha, mostly medium cuts. All was delicious and the service was great. Everything we tried on this and past visits, have always been of the highest quality.

We came here as part of a business meeting. I did not taste the meats as it was at night plus I am vegetarian. However they have a very nice salad. At to make up for it. My guess is that is probably a very...expensive salad. They serve emoanaditas and pan de queso for starters and it was goodMore

I've had the privilege of dining here several times over the years. Wow. Absolutely fantastic experience. The food and service are outstanding. I sincerely wish all non vegetarians get a chance to indulge here. No need for dessert, the whole meal is just that!

We were recommended this restaurant as the best Brazilian Churrascaria in São Paulo and we weren't disappointed. The service was excellent, the absolutely massive salad bar had a bewildering selection of items, it was hard to show restraint and save room for the star attraction...- the meat!! As usual in a churrascaria, you are given a disc with a red side and a green side. Green = feed me, red = stop while I take a breath!!. The waiters are continually passing by with big skewers of freshly BBQ'd meats, all different cuts, which are carved at your table. The quality and quantity were excellent and I would highly recommend the experience.More

If you are a carnivorous person who enjoys Rodizio style meals, then this restaurant should not be missed. It is, without a doubt, the best Brazilian steakhouse that I have ever enjoyed. I’m very eager to go there again soon!

This is definitely a top decile fine-dining, Brazilian restaurant. The cuisine offerings are the finest. Typical wait times for Sunday lunch is 30 to 60 minutes. My favourites are the salad bar offerings, picanha, and the creamy mango dessert. Excellent service.

My Brazilian friend took me to Barbacoa on a recent visit to Sao Paulo. I can not describe how wonderful it is. In fact, we went back several more times on the same trip. I love churascarias, and rodizio food. But, Barbacoa was undoubtedly the...best that I've ever had! And, the service was impeccable!More

This restaurant in unbeatable! The cuts of meat are incredible and it's not just steak as they bring out lamb, prime rib, chicken, fish, ribs and pork. Plus they bring out an array of fried cheeses and veggies. Throw in a fantastic salad bar and...an extensive wine list and you have a gem of a restaurant. The service here is amazing. Thiago and Limas were with us every step of the way. I cannot thank them both enough for their kindness, knowledge and willingness to make our evening so special. Both spoke perfect English for us!More

Recommended by @bemyguest. Thiago and Limas were the most wonderful staff. We don’t speak portedgeese, these 2 spoke great English and were so friendly and helpful. They both went over and above to ensure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious and plentiful....We enjoyed martinis, red wine & cachaca drinks to go along with the varieties of meats and deliciousness of the night. Tips for a successful night. Arrive at 7pm to get in without a wait, don’t fill up on breads and salads if you’re coming for the meats. Come hungry, you’ll be amazed how much one can eat….. I had no idea. Overall the experience was eventful, fun and filling. If you are looking for a Brazilian meat experience, this is your place. The tastes and flavors and service will not disappoint.More

What is offered in this churrascaria is a little better than average, but for the high ticket price, it's simply not worth. It's very much a touristic place, meant for foreigners, so if that's your angle maybe it's a place visit. Otherwise, probably avoid.
