Salad area only. 2. Salad bar plus seafood/ chicken / pork option and final overall all items. Salad bar had some good items and lots of choices.

Great service and wonderful ambiance- will be back.

From the moment we arrived, the elegant yet welcoming atmosphere made us feel special; however, what truly elevated the entire experience was the service. The attention we received was impeccable, with the staff constantly attentive to every detail and ensuring that we lacked absolutely nothing. I would like to give a special shout-out to two individuals who made our visit unforgettable: Luara and Andrew. Their level of professionalism, kindness, and dedication was truly impressive. Luara was incredibly attentive, always wearing a genuine smile and ensuring that everything at our table was perfect. Andrew, for his part, complemented the experience with equally warm and efficient service, demonstrating extensive knowledge of the menu and a constant willingness to assist. Together, they managed to create a personalized experience, making us feel like more than just customers--we felt like special guests. That kind of service is hard to come by, and it truly makes all the difference. The only point for improvement was that the drinks took a little longer than usual to arrive. Aside from that, everything was perfect. Definitely recommended!

I was lowkey afraid that I would never find some Guarana soda and linguica ever again...especially not in Jax. Low and behold I found the place that answered my prayers! Small store with a restaurant as well. I didn't try the buffet cause I wanted to hurry home and attempt to make the linguica just like I remembered in Rio (I failed...like really bad) Friendly people that work there..will come back to try the buffet soon!

I love to check out authentic ethnic restaurants like this place. I've passed by it several times…read morebut never got a chance to stop by. It's a grocery store/ buffet place with brazilian customers who speak Portuguese. I came towards the end of the buffet so this might not reflect the actual experience. The buffet has a nice variety of beef, pork shoulder, chicken legs but by the time I had tried it the meat was quite tough and dry. Probably due to the fact that it has been sitting out for awhile by the portable heater. Other sides the buffet had were beans, rice, plantains which were fine. For $16 a buffet I would check it out again to see if the food was any better at the start of the buffet. You can also shop for brazilian drinks and snacks after you finish eating. The mango and Guarana drinks are quite tasty.

I was glad to see there were people eating there and on the buffet was potato, egg salad, beets, black beans/rice (very good), mixed greens, diced tomatoes, avocados, olives....then beef/potatoes in gravy, sausages, liver and onions...and more were offered offered are at the buffet...down from there are the enclosed grills(?) that have the real meats-sirloin, beef ribs, chix breast wrapped in bacon, chix legs, etc. you say what you want and he shows you and you say as much as you want. Everything is weighted at the end, $12 s pound. There are tables around the corner to eat. They have breakfast and lunch till 5 pm; there are other times on weekends so one may need to call! Besides the buffet there is a store of products too-spices, cook wear, clothes, bakery items, canned goods, dry products, freezer item..etc

When we are craving affordable and delicious Brazilian steak, Rio Bonito is our go-to place. It's…read moreactually a grocery but they also served hot meals buffet. Some of our favorites are the beef ribs (not always available), sweet plantains, green vegetables, picanha, sirloin, chicken lasagna, and chicken breast with bacon. For $11.99 per pound, it's really a good deal. Their steaks are seasoned well and you can request on how you want your steak, I prefer medium. Highly recommend this place if you want your food to be served hot, fast, and tasty!

Every week our community has a food truck night, and this week happened to be Brazilicious. Since…read moreI'm a huge picanha fan, it was a no brainer that we'd have to give it a shot. We ordered the samba plate, which allows you to pick any 3 meats, so we selected picanha (cooked rare), shrimp, and sausage. Unfortunately, the steak ended up being closer to well done by the time we made it back to the house, but I think that's just the cost of taking steak to-go, and not necessarily the fault of the restaurant or chef since it's natural for it to continue cooking inside of the styrofoam box. Temperature aside, the flavor and quality of the meat was great, and you receive a very generous portion for the price. Along with the samba plate, we ordered steak fries and empanadas. Although the steak fries were pretty plain.. basically just steak plopped on top of fries, they were delicious, especially with the creamy herb sauce that is served with them. The empanadas were ginormous, and I like that the dough almost flaky rather than being super thick. We were very pleased with Brazilicious and will definitely hit them up again next time!

Got a Brazilian sausage wrap with fries. Not sure what makes it "Brazilian" sausage, if anything,…read morebut it's a good choice of sausage for a wrap I guess. It's thick and meaty and not too soft. The pita is of the very thick and soft variety, which is naturally my favorite. The vinaigrette and sour cream sauce mix also works pretty well. The fries were just okay. In hindsight, some of the other menu items were more interesting, but I just felt like getting a wrap. I'll have try other stuff if I see this truck again.

This was our first Columbian steakhouse so we have no others to compare it with. We will visit them again.

I ordered a papaya drink, very fresh, an appetizer of fried plantain with cheese and guava sauce, and a marina combination for the entree which came with a tilapia filet, 4 shrimp, salmon, and 2 vegetable skewers. The plantain with cheese and guava sauce was new and surprisingly tasty. That's a first for me and I'd definitely enjoy it again. The entree looked great and had minimal seasoning. I added the sauces to add flavor and heat. All in all, it was too much in one sitting so I took it home. I would recommend additional seasoning for the seafood & a lemon to squeeze over it and wake up the flavor.
