We came to Copacabana Brazilian Steakhouse to celebrate my boyfriend's dad's birthday, and it was a…read morenight full of food and family vibes. The endless tableside-carved meats were all cooked medium-rare and incredibly tender especially the parmesan filet mignon was a standout, and the grilled pineapple was the perfect sweet balance that never disappoint. They also have shrimps, cornbread, and cheeseballs, but these didn't come around as often, so it's worth asking your server if you want to make sure you get some. Sides and appetizers are now ordered via QR code, which makes it way too easy to keep adding more to your table. Dessert option was slim with only gelato as your only option, but the texture wasn't exactly gelato but still a nice sweet finish to the meal. One small note: we were seated at the very beginning of the dining area, so every time the doors opened a cold draft came through, which made things slightly less comfortable, especially for his parents. Overall, the service was attentive, the atmosphere lively, and it was a memorable night celebrating family. Just be mindful of where you're seated and don't be shy to request the special items from your server. Yes the price may scare you off ($75-$80/ person) but the meats alone make it worth it.

My wife and I came here tonight on a whim. Our flight was cancelled, so we needed to stay close to…read morethe airport. We're both pescatarians (we will eat seafood), but we only partook in the salad bar and the warm side dishes. IT WAS AMAZING. The decor was beautiful and elegant. The food was done PERFECTLY.

Now we will be visiting the location closest to us when we get back home, and I'm excited. YOU'RE KILLING IT, Texas de Brazil!!!

Have been here several times and the food and service is always good. Last Monday my family went to…read morecelebrate my grandson's birthday. We had a reservation and were quickly seated. It was still happy hour so there were drink specials. We started at the salad bar, too many choices to choose from, always a plus. The lobster bisque was real good and the potato choices were all good. They brought a plate of French fries to the table for the kids and those cheesy rolls melt in your mouth. The meats are served table side, they are sliced to your specifications. Your choices include sausage, pork, chicken , ribs and lamb. I suggest you go hungry and pace yourself so you get to try everything you want. We did end with dessert for the boys. They ordered the cheesecake & chocolate cake and said it was all good. The salad bar is constantly filled, dirty dishes taken away, clean restaurant and very relaxing atmosphere.

It was okay. It's…read morehard for me to say I didn't enjoy the food but to be honest the dish my friend had was better. My feijoida was okay and missing the orange the other plate at another table had. The server put the food in the table and did not return so perhaps I could have had the oranges or another drink We were the only table there so the opportunity was there. I might have tried dessert if he had returned. In the end, we just asked for the bill

So... I finally walked upstairs and sat down for a picanha and…read more.. Sooooooooo gooooood! The good- The cut of picanha and meat fat combo was perrrrfect. So delicious- I love the fat from picanha and I was so happy that it was cooked to perfection. The beans and farofa felt like home. Really tasty. The meh- they didn't have any vinaigrette which is like a salsa- it's not difficult to make so it was like whaaaaaat. Attention to details please. The açai juice was nice but... also very basic. In short, come for the beef. No details, basic, but you'll leave happy, if you care about the main event. I've tried most Brazilian restaurants in toronto and I have to say that the meat from here is my fav.

Sabor Carioca serves excellent Brazilian food, including classics such as feijoada (Brazil's…read morenational dish, which is only served on weekends). Its location is the former site of another Brazilian restaurant (Sabor Brasil). They kept much of the exterior signage, interior, and most of the menu items the same / very similar to the restaurant that previously occupied the space. We came here specifically to try the Moqueca De Peixe Com Camarão & Arroz E Pirão (grouper fish & shrimps stew with tomatoes, green peppers, onions, cilantro, and coconut milk), and it did not disappoint! The stew was so flavourful and they gave a lot of grouper fish and big shrimps in the pot. I really liked the tomatoes and cilantro in the stew. It came bubbling hot, with Brazilian fish gravy served in a smaller pot beside it. It was served with garlic-infused rice that was just as flavourful. Tip: Order farofa (toasted cassava flour) alongside any stew dish, then mix it with the stew. The textures complement each other very well. The Grilled Salmon was also really good. It was flavourful and I could see and taste the charred grill mark. It came served with rice (also infused with garlic) and choice of side. I chose a side of vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, carrot, green beans) and they were excellent! In addition to the main dishes, we ordered a large House Salad (nice, simple, and refreshing), Brazilian Tomato Slaw (for extra veggies - also refreshing), and Farofa (a must-get every time I go to a Brazilian restaurant). Everything we tried was delicious x100. Food came out in a decent amount of time, and service was nice and friendly. The ambience was very casual with Portuguese music playing in the background. I definitely recommend this place if you want to try authentic Brazilian dishes in a casual setting!

Touro is a Brazilian Steakhouse where the waiters walk around with a selection of meats (and…read moresometimes shrimp) for you to select from. It's all you can eat. There are 2 locations north of Toronto, north essentially the same. It a large open space with tables far enough apart that you don't feel like you're sitting right next to strangers. There are a few appetizers like the cheese bread and some grilled vegetables. These are bland and have no real flavour. Their corn bread, however, is fantastic. The meat variety is good. Of course, they have picanha (a Brazilian cut of meat), Parmesan sirloin steak, sausage, chicken, grilled pineapple, shrimp, and others. They have beans and rice too. The staff walk around constantly and offer food. They're friendly and are happy to give you an extra piece of meat if that's the one you really like. These reason for 4 stars is that its nearly impossible to get meat that's prepared medium or well done. Not all my family likes rare/medium rare, and while it's possible to request well done, it takes 15-20 minutes to get 2 little pieces of meat by which time you're ready for more and have to wait another 15-20 minutes. This, while all the others are busily eating.

Finally checked out Touro and I have to say, compared to Copacabana, I still prefer Copa overall…read more Touro does have a nice atmosphere -- it feels a bit more suitable for special occasions like birthdays. The space is lively and the service is attentive, which makes the experience enjoyable. As for the food, the variety is decent, and the meats are generally well-seasoned and flavorful. I especially liked the grilled pineapple -- it was juicy and nicely caramelized. However, if you're not a fan of cinnamon, this might not be your favorite, as the flavor is quite noticeable. Overall, it's a good experience and worth trying at least once, but in terms of variety and overall balance, I personally still lean towards Copacabana.

Washrooms were downstairs which would not be accessible if someone had mobility concerns. Upstairs table to chair height slight mis match low table. Street parking available and ttc accessible. Food the appetizer fried cheese ball squares with the spicy pineapple chutney was amazing. The fried chicken ball nothing special. Ordered the skewer meat and sausage with peppers came with beans and vinegarette and some cornmeal like carb rice and fries came way before the meat spit. Server also dropped out peppers and onion from the spit to the table and said he would replace it but never did. Also Had to ask the server what to do with it as with most of the meal had to ask how to eat it. The hot sauce on the table was good however not coming out of the bottle had to be switched. I asked the server for water for the table and was never given and my cup of water was not refilled and having to ask. Service was not so good though server was new said everything was good so I'm skeptical. The pork mash and veggies entre was good not out of this world but good. Filling yes worth the price debatable. Question remains would I come back? I could probably go to a Brazilian steakhouse to get more meat for dollar value. The only thing I would come back for is the fried cheese squares. To each their own.

Great Gaucho style restaurant in the hotel zone at the Falls. It's slightly different from other…read moreplaces like this we've been to before in that they don't have an appetizer buffet, but instead a variety of sides and dishes you can order, aside from the meat. We tried several of the sides and especially liked the beef carpaccio, the chicken croquettes and the grilled mushroom. We got to try pretty much all the meats on the menu and while they were all good, we really liked the cheese stuffed prime rib, the Hawaiian strip loin and the bacon wrapped filet mignon. Our server, Ashley, was very friendly, helpful and attentive. She repeatedly apologized when there was a lull in meat coming by, though she doesn't really have any influence over how fast things come out, aside from telling the meat-servers what we wanted. We didn't really mind, because it gave us some time to talk and digest before getting more meat. Overall we had a great experience and would definitely come back when we're back in the area.

A NY Times food critic recently wrote, "What I really want from a restaurant is a quiet, well-lit…read moreplace where I can read the menu." This restaurant checks none of those boxes. Firstly, parking: It's all free, but the lot adjacent to the restaurant has 20 spaces for a business that seats 200 people. Arriving cars are to wait at the curb outside for the white shuttle to arrive, then follow this to a free parking place two blocks away. Reverse the process to leave. It's difficult to enter and exit a high van in a tight skirt and high heels. Just saying. We arrived just in time to see the 8pm floor show, but the music was so loud I was praying for it to end. To order from the menu for AYCE side dishes, you have to have a phone that can scan the QR code: No printed menu was forthcoming, and the print on my cell phone was too small for my husband to read. The music was so loud it made conversation impossible, so I made the choices. The kitchen had already run out of mashed potatoes, and green chimichurri sauce by 8pm, and they seat until 11pm on Saturdays. I was not impressed. There's a chaotic way the servers with the meats circulated. Some tables were served steak three times while we were never served. It's a $90 per person meal where drinks and desserts are extra, our table wobbled horribly, and we couldn't speak to each other. It was the opposite of hospitality. How loud was the music? I'm writing this the next morning and my ears are still ringing. There are many other steakhouses on this side of town: Brasa, Ruth Chris, STK. Next time, I'll try one of them.
