I enjoyed the contemporary design of the restaurant and the food was amazing. I had a dish that I normally don't make and don't see it in restaurants across the US - beef parmigiana. The meat was very tender, and the tomato sauce was well balanced without a lot of acidity, which I liked. It's a good size and you will probably take some home. Luis, the owner, is very proud of their vinyl equipment and says that the music selection of the DJs is very diverse and upbeat. This is a son and mother business and mom is in charge of the kitchen, menu design, produce purchase to keep everything fresh. I would definitely dine here again and I recommend it.

I did not expect to enjoy this restaurant that much! It's unfortunate that it's located far into…read moreNewark, but I'm so happy I was able to try it. They had a wide variety of food, all ranging from beef, pork, chicken, seafood, and some vegetarian options. They had an extensive wine menu, and my boyfriend joyfully enjoyed a glass of wine. I got the brazilian fried chicken, which was extremely flavorful, and i was surprised there wasn't any breading on the chicken as typical fried chicken does. I much preferred the no-breading style, which I think is the Brazilian way. I would have preferred a boneless dish, as there were quite a few pieces with bones, and it was pretty oily at the bottom of the dish. It came with two very large sides, and totaled around $25. 100% would recommend this dish, but I do think at a lower price point, this could make do with just one side, instead of two, as the main dish was quite large enough to fill me up. My favorite part of this meal was the garlic butter bread that they provide for free. It comes out extremely fresh with lots of chopped up garlic, which is my favorite part of garlic bread. It was a great way to start the dinner off. The service was great and the waiters were extremely attentive. They regularly checked up on how we felt about the food and filled up our drinks. The restaurant was pretty empty while we were dining, but the space was laid out very nicely and the decor was beautiful. Would come again if it wasn't so far!

We were served pretty quickly and opted for the AYCE option for our entire party. It was a reasonable $45 per person. The meats came out pretty hot and fresh! We had to compete with a graduation party and thus service was a little slower than we would have liked. The highlight was of course the picanha! It was crispy, salty and perfectly savoury! We also enjoyed the garlic steak. They also offer a buffet offering fresh salad, vegetables, and other sides. I really enjoyed their chimichurri sauce as well! Definitely get it on a plate to dip all the steaks in. A must visit if you're in the area :)

I added a little salt, pepper, and lemon to enhance the flavors. The staff was attentive, kept our glasses filled, and made sure we were enjoying our meal. One of the staff members let us sample the meat he was serving on the sword to another table, and it was incredibly juicy, tender, and flavorful. That experience made us want to return for the full Rozilio experience. Overall, it was a wonderful birthday dinner.

The Mixed Meat option had several different preparations of beef and a sausage served with a salad, french fries, and white rice. It was a generous portion of meat in a large plate. For dessert we all had the Serradura (Portuguese Sawdust Pudding) which was made with a meringued cream, whipped cream, and crushed cookies mixed together. Very delicious, not too sweet and not too filling. All around there was brick, stone and solid wood. I felt like I was in what I imagined a restaurant in Portugal would be like back in the day. The servers were friendly. I gives me the sense that it is a good place to have a range of events - from a business lunch to a celebratory party. There is lots of space in the restaurant with different rooms. One room seemed specifically set up for large parties whereas another room was set up like a typical restaurant. Our party was able to relax and enjoy ourselves without ever feeling any time pressures from the staff. It was quite an enjoyable experience.

This is a typical…read moreself-service buffet type of restaurant which is very common in Brazilian communities in Newark-NJ, Astoria-NY and many other locations. You make your plate, weigh and pay about $10 per pound. My feijoada plate from the attached picture had a little less than a pound so I paid around $9 which is a great deal especially if you compare to other restaurants in the area. The restaurant is somewhat small, simple, but there are enough tables for everyone even during lunch hours. Staff is friendly, they give you privacy to pick your food without anyone bothering you, food is tasty and the variety is ok. I wish they had Brazilian barbecue similar to other restaurants in the area but I can't really complain because the food and price were great. Compared to other Brazilian restaurants in the area this place has a big advantage because the process is very simple. Other restaurants such as Casa Nova, Cantinho Mineiro, Delícia de Minas also offer a buffet option but their process is very complicated. They have a prix fixe option for a set price and then if you add meat it's a different price, if you want to take something to go you need to pick a prix fixe container for a different price. It's just too confusing and I don't really like that, hence my preference for this Brazilian buffet restaurant. Don't expect any luxury or lots of variety. This is a practical restaurant offering food for a fair price. I definitely recommend it. Note that there's just street parking and the Wilson Ave area tends to be busy so keep that in mind.

The first thing was the extremely nasty server (the cashier was a sweetie). She didn't smile not once in the hour we were there, gave me an attitude when I waited 30 minutes for my food& my french fries came out cold, & was trying to raise her voice to me in front of my kids. I was rang up before I ate (which was fine), but they charged me a 20% gratuity (for tip) and that ridiculous, especially when the server was beyond nasty, I had to get up to get my own sauces, straws,& sodas. When I got up to ask for my sodas (that I paid for& did not get) she gave me an attitude again!! Someone needs to train her or get rid of her, horrible for business!

I decided to tip in cash, (i told the hostess this too) and they took gratuity anyway, which the restaurant wouldn't help with- so i had to go through my bank; so just don't tip in cash just deal with the gratuity. I had to ask for water, for whatever reason it's not something they just give you, when you sit down. I was given a good cocktail, but once finished no one came to check and ask if i wanted another. I got full fast so was in and out quick. it wasn't insanely busy, i'd come friday during the day. i would like to give this place another shot with friends perhaps, maybe lack of service is because i wanted to go alone.

After confirming we were going with the full rodizio experience, she explained we had access to their hot buffet/salad bar, and the staff would soon come with skewers of meat. At $45 per person, Taste of Brazil is signficantly cheaper than other rodizio restaurants in the area. The meat selection is very similar to the other rodizio restaurants in the Ironbound, but I will note that they did not have beef rib. I would have scored them higher, but I found most of the beef options to be kind of tough. My favorite meat options coming around were the lamb, chicken, and chicken hearts. We ended our meal with the grilled pineapple covered in cinnamon and grilled cheese with honey. Both were delicious. Parking is a pain the area, but at their price point, I'd go again.
