    My lady took me here for date night and it was quite the let down. She tried making reservations online and there was some issues so she called in and said we would be there between 745-8 and they said they could accommodate us. What we didnt know at the time was that they closed at 830. I believe this was a big part of what went wrong that night. At Bullvinos, you pay one fee and you get salad bar access and they come to your table with cuts meat until you're full. So many things went wrong this night. The waiter came over and asked what we wanted to drink, we asked for water and he poured us water from a bottle and he never came back to the table after that. We didnt know that the water cost money until someone later asked if we wanted another bottle or just tap water and the bottle was on the bill. They usually bring over bread and mashed potatoes and after being there a while, I had to ask for this and the bread wasnt fresh. The salad bar was closing shortly after we got there and staff made an announcement "the salad bar will be closing in 5 minutes so if you want something, go get it". I understood, but it just came off rude. They did come over with the meat very quickly, like almost lining up at our table and thats when I checked to see what time they closed. They didnt technically rush us and they asked if we had any requests for meat before they closed. For this type of restaurant, you probably want to have more than 30 minutes and I wish they had mentioned it over the phone when we called. I only had cuts of meat and it was all pretty good, didn't really get a chance for the salad bar though. For my first time there, this was a terrible experience and I had high hopes for them.

    It was my niece birthday and she wanted steak. I suggested all you can eat, then she can try multiple kinds of grilled meat. She said yes and we ended up at Bullvino. Restaurant is located next to CHS stadium, once you walk inside you'll see the big bull statue. There's a host station to check in. Take the stairs to go up towards the restaurant, once upstairs you'll see the big salad station. There's a variety of fruits, pasta salad, sauces, etc. I was happy to see they have the asian spicy sauce for the steaks. The servers will walk around with grilled meats. Each table will have a card to place on your table. Red side means no more meat and green side says more please. Don't forget every table gets unlimited cheese bread, plantain, and another breadstick. We left super full, definitely check them out for the experience.

    Food was good but the service was slow. We came to this restaurant for restaurant week. It took them a awhile to attend us, I had to ask for on table dishes. (Mash potatoes, plantain, cheese bread, and something else) We had to complain twice about food being serviced slow. Beautiful place overall and not very crowded. We had a 8:30 reservation.

    Wow! Have tried many Brazilian steakhouses around the world and this is up there at the top. Quality of service, quality of food, quality of service. Salad bar was solid and offered everything that I like! Sides included the little Brazilian cheesy breads, plantain, mashed potatoes, and fried polenta which were all very good The star of the show at a Brazilian steakhouse is of course the meat! We simply love the variety and you can arrange to try two levels that include a wonderful variety of beef, or for a little bit more money go with a premium selection. Honestly, both offer a great variety. The house Pacania was outstanding, lamb chops were phenomenal, House sausage just delicious, beef short rib was mouthwatering. What more can I say? Well, I can add that with a full bar and a wonderful wine list that they absolutely nailed the national drink of Brazil as the chiapirinias were outstanding. A family owned business, not a chain, managed and run by Brazilians, they truly know their craft. The restaurant itself is large, warm, and well maintained. We had a slice of their cheesecake to go, an enormous portion, and truly delicious as well. This restaurant is a must when in Saint Paul!

    Receipt

    Came here to celebrate my birthday and was greatly disappointed, we usually go to the one in Bloomington for special occasions but the last time was disappointed as well so we gave the St. Paul location a try. We paid for top shelf and didn't receive any top shelf meat, when we asked for some lamb chops we never received any. It seems like if it's a party of two the servers walk past but if it's a big party they'll gravitate more towards them which makes no sense because we all pay the same. Safe to say it's going to be the last time eating here. We wanted to love it but unfortunately not going to waste money here when we can go to an actual steak house.

    I can't say anything negative about this restaurant! I've gone countless times (I live nearby) and the service gets better every time. The severs are amazing and will constantly ask if there is anything you want them to bring out for you. The manager always interacts with us and makes us laugh. The food is top tier! The salad bar has many options from veggies, fruits and rice. The meat is selection is amazing! You can even request how you want your meat cooked. The meat is constantly coming around so don't worry about waiting for long. My absolute favorite is the grilled pineapple! You have to try it. The drinks are always fresh and strong, how I like them!

    Restaurant Week menu.

    Review if Restaurant Week Winter 2023 menu. While I have been here during their regular AYCE menu ($56 without desserts), the value is unbeatable during Restaurant Week for $40 (slightly different selection of meats but dessert is include). Valet available, surface metered parking lot right in front across the street, or street parking. Set in a converted warehouse style building, dining room with soaring high ceilings with large wooden beams. Large groups are welcomed. Place was absolutely packed this Friday so service was slow but not bad. So busy eating that I forgot to take picture of the star of the show, house picanha. But there was plenty to offer even if it did not offer all the other meats from the regular menu. Brazilian lemonade (nonalcoholic) always great and refreshing. Ask for roasted spicy tomato sauce if you need a kick your steak and if they have any sticky rice (also by request). Similar in atmosphere and meats as Fogo but I think you get more value here. At the end of the day it comes down to personal preference.

    Ask the Community - Bullvino's Churrascaria

    When can I make reservations for Thanksgiving 2025?

    6-8 weeks in advance. Just call them

    Where do you go for valet parking?

    At the door.....

    How much is it per person?

    You can order just the salad var ($25.95), the salad bar plus almost all meats ($45.95), or the salad bar plus all meats ($55.95), as of November 2022. Check out their website to view differences.

    Can you order just the salad bar? Everything is great there, but I'm not the biggest meat fan and the salad bar is the best!

    Yes, you can just have the salad bar (plus the other items that are in that area), without having any meat. It's $25.95, as of November 2022.

    Can you get meat cooked to your liking or is it just medium rare?

    Their skewers have all options, if not most, as they peruse through the dining room. I'm sure they would accommodate your request if asked though!

I've since removed myself due to how popular the shop got and recently had an opportunity to revisit. I'm so glad I did! What I once knew as a tiny, cozy shop has expanded into an entire new section directly behind the original space allowing for more guests to visit. This is fantastic! I know the original owners of Cafe Astoria have stepped down, yet I'm pleased to say under the new ownership that many of the original decor and items remain the same from awhile back. The biggest transformations are the larger space, added painted mural, flexible ordering system where you can now order from a QR code at your table or walk up the register, expanded menu that includes brunch all day and items such as breakfast sandwiches and avocado toast. What went from a small crepe and specialty coffeehouse has truly grown. Don't worry the crepes and coffees are all still on the menu. I had the mango smoothie bowl and a mushroom and Swiss crepe - both were outstanding. I even had an iced pumpkin chia. Yum! I look forward to returning. The hospital workers are so lucky to be close to this establishment.

Wifi is good and some people WFH here, but it does get crowded fast on the weekends! The menu is expansive, but the crepes and drinks seem to be the main attractions. They have unique espresso and matcha options, including a secret menu and seasonal items. They do tend to be on the sweeter side. I always get the dirty matcha! My friend enjoyed the campfire mocha and creme brulee in the pasr. The crepes are pretty good - thin, but still soft as crepes should be! I also like the variety. You can't really go wrong with anything on the menu here!

There is a self-order kiosk or you can order at the counter. Food was mid in all honesty. The Strawberry Matcha Ice Cream was probably one of the biggest misses I have ever had. It is vanilla ice cream with strawberry jam at the bottom, and whisked matcha (still warm!) on TOP of the ice cream, making it a major spill hazard. This was pretty disappointing since we were expecting actual matcha ice cream (and maybe it was wrong of us to assume so). I wish the kiosk had images of the items for ordering though...didn't seem like there were any and you just had to hope that what you're getting sounds intriguing enough just by the name. Boba Ice Cream (brown sugar syrup) was okay. The brown sugar syrup was what was saving the entire thing. It's aesthetically cute, but it doesn't wow me. Def a cute spot, but it's only Instagrammable foods. Not worth for the taste though :(
