    So many options!
    Eder O.

    Everytime I'm in Orlando my family's favorite place especially if the live band is playing! The food is amazing and the staff is super friendly definitely recommend Boteca!

    So I ended up with a voucher/coupon to eat here. I said why not coupon is going to expire. Immediately entering we were welcome and could sit anywhere we want. [[HIGHLIGHT]]For the time we went it wasn't as busy but as the night went the crowd started to show up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My food was very good and flavorful. [[HIGHLIGHT]]At night they have live music on the weekend.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would definitely hit this place up again. The only thing I didn't care for was the price of the churros. 13 bucks for what seemed to be one churro cut up in six pieces with dulce de leche.

    The empanadas are very flavorful. We ordered beef and cheese empanadas and we ordered another order of cheese ones and shared. We also ordered fresh lemonades. Entrees were: steak for two...lots of flavor and it came with rice, beans, and we asked for side of steamed yucca. All delicious. Steak is on the thinner side...juicy though. If you are thinking a big fat steak...that isn't it. Know that before you order. But plenty of it to go around. Hamburger that my son had he said was juicy and delicious and the tilapia was fried crispy and the sauce over it was a good compliment. French fries were crispy and delicious! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice ambiance...it was empty when we arrived around 8pm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely worth a try with the family if in town!

    Mystery item in white rice.

    Horrific experience. I hated every minute. Food took over an hour. It was bland dry and our rice had a mystery item in it. We asked two separate servers what it was and they bothe guessed. Dry and overcooked.

    Food was far beyond our expectations!!! Highly recommend this place!!! Service was amazing!!! Feijoada is out of this world!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have live music![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Date Night Experience @Boteco R. It's tough to recommend a place these days. We asked many friends and no one ever sat. I dislike long rants- I try to be specific so others can choose for themselves. Some have the same experience- some do not. The cost is respectfully challenging today. So, it's important to understand other experiences. Here's the highs & lows of a dinner date. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Entered @9pm. Nicely lit; nice area on I-drive by fun spot; music playing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] No greeter; someone sat us down and gave us menus/ No questions asked. (1) There was no true greeting: no hello, is this your first time? My name is (waiter)? Do you have menu questions? Would you like a drink... took nearly 15 min to get a drink. The man walked us past a large ground to sit but "we squeezed awkwardly behind a man in a chair instead of going around the table properly..." truly unprofessional. Only 5 tables and plenty of space to walk around... (2) The prices for a skirt steak- I had larger steaks for that price. The rice came out HOT - nice! The fries came out hot! The empanadas- tasted great! The steak was corpse cold! So, the main part of the meal- that makes the meal, the meat- was cold. (3) They added gratuity. I would not give past 18% for the service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place temperature was on and off with cool to warm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was B- bc of the steak, service C+. (4) [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you have money to spend, it was chill with the music (did not recognize any songs but dude sang well).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We just didn't feel that true "welcome to our Brazilian spot, please come again". It felt like "we got your tip included..."

    House picadinho

    Amazing food and service ! We had the chicken croquettes as an appetizer which were also delicious. I had the classic Brazilian drink which was like a mojito but very strong (which I loved)!

    Fettuccine Alfredo
    Hunter L.

    Arguably some of the best Fettuccine Alfredo i've ever had. Make sure you're hungry, it's very heavy. 10/10

    Picanha
    Idrees K.

    The Picanha here is sooooo gooood! It was so much that we brought it to go as well. It was my first time trying stroganoff, it was good but it wasn't a favorite of mine. My Brazilian coworkers love stroganoff so I think it was just a me problem. They have a full bar here with Caiprinhas and other beverages. The service was really good, everyone was so kind and helpful. The food took quite some time to arrive but the picanha was worth the wait for sure. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great ambiance too![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Escondidinho de Camaro and Bobo de Camaroes Dourado
    Jenna I.

    Had a really stand out lunch here when I was on vacation. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Low key profile with a giant projector screen (they were watching sports when I was there) and friendly servers, it's a chill and laid back kind of place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Admittedly I haven't had too much experience with Brazilian cuisine but every time I get a chance to try more I take it. Boteco was definitely another great foray into the land of cassava flour. I highly recommend the Escondidinho de Camaro appetizer -- a beautiful mix of mashed yucca, gooey cheese and shrimp with delicate and flavorful spice. For an appetizer it's incredibly rich but oh so amazing. Then I had the Shrimp Bobo for an entree, which wasn't too unsimilar but much less heavy and also succulent and delicious. Brazil is the original flavortown. Would absolutely come back next time I'm in town.

    Fettuccine Alfredoalfred

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I walked into the restaurants the ambiance was a very relaxing and calm setting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was very respectful and good at explaining items on the menu and very assuring. The Alfredo was perfect! The chicken was full of flavor and everything was on point! 10/10 would recommend again !

    Great Brazilian vibes, food and drinks! Would recommend to anyone. Muito Bom!!!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very Brazilian, with great food and vibes, would recommend to anyone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ask for Gabriel, he was amazing. Muito Bom!!!

    Food was delicious and fast and portions were very good for the price service great, [[HIGHLIGHT]]atomosphere was great too[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. would definetly reccomend if you are in the area and have a minute.

    Do they have kids menu?

    Sorry, I did not recall seeing a kid's menu on the main menu - It was a while ago. Honestly, I'd try another spot. I wasn't worth the expensive meal. There's dozens on the I-Drive strip. They didn't respond to my post either. Good luck!

There were several places to choose from, but this one seemed like a good fit because it wasn't overly loud, and we wanted to be able to hear each other. We initially sat outside, but we were told they had stopped serving the outdoor seating area, so we moved inside. Rather than wait for a server, we decided to order directly from the bar since it seemed like the faster option. There weren't enough seats at the bar for our group of five, so we grabbed a nearby booth. The bartender was friendly, and our drinks were excellent. Unfortunately, that's where the positive experience ended. Although people were not coming in, but some people were eating, and enjoying drinks throughout the restaurant, it seemed like the staff had started cleaning up for the night. A server came over, and we explained that we were only there for drinks. After we received our drinks from the bar, he returned and told us that we would soon have to get up so he could clean the table. Seriously? I looked around and saw several other tables where some guests were simply sitting, talking, and enjoying their drinks. They weren't eating either. It made us feel as though, because we had only ordered beverages, we weren't as welcome as everyone else. I chose not to let one person's behavior ruin our evening because I'd rather believe that one employee doesn't represent the entire establishment. In fact, the bartender was great, and the drinks were very well made. What disappointed me was the server's attitude. I wasn't aware that ordering drinks at a restaurant with a full bar wasn't enough to be considered a paying customer, especially when there weren't enough bar stools to accommodate our group. His approach came across as rude, unprofessional, and completely unnecessary. Needless to say, we were not going to get up until we had finished out drinks, and we did not. I may return to try the food because the drinks were impressive, but if I ever encounter that same server again, I definitely won't be sitting in his section.

We initially sat at the outdoor(ish) bar which had a bunch of people there...but no bartender. After 5 minutes or so, we opted to go inside. The inside bar was bit fuller and we spotted the bartender right away. We sat down ordered drinks and viewed the menu. We started off with the pretzel which was good. It was a bit undercooked, but not a dealbreaker. And here's where things got a little interesting. There was a group there who was celebrating a wedding. They were LOUD. Not rude or inappropriate, but just loud. I'm all for having fun, but they were a bit over the top. Through some conversation with the staff, we found out the outdoor bartender came in to make sure the inside bartender was ok given those particular patrons. Solid move on his part for helping out a colleague! The food from here was scattered. My wife's salad came out and was drenched in dressing. Despite the menu saying all dressings on the side, that apparently doesn't apply to the Caesar according to the staff. My wings came much later...much much later. It wasn't a complicated order, so it was a bit surprising. That being said, they were cooked well and seasoned/sauced nicely. It seemed they had a bit of an off day here, so I want to review accordingly.
