Brazil the country has some of the best meat and food in the world! Now on to Rio Express Grill in Lexington, SC... This new Brazilian restaurant is situated in the heart of Lexington, SC and is a great addition to the local food options. We decided to do a online lunch order. You can order online very easy thru Toast. The staff was very friendly and professional when I went inside to pickup my order. We ordered two chicken bacon wrap bowls after reading a few Google reviews. Their bowl prices are between $9.99-$17.99, and seem to be very affordable. Now the bowls were seasoned very well, and we truly enjoyed the potato salad, plantations, beats, and the proteins. The bowls seem to be full of veggies and very little meat, approx 1oz of chicken and a half strip of bacon. The disappointing part of our meals, neither bowls were well portioned. We felt that both bowls did not have no more than 1-2% of the meats, so we can't really comment on chicken with bacon. We were expecting that the main dish (chicken & bacon) to be at least 25% of the portion size. We did enjoy our lunch options, but after spending $32+ we were both still hungry. We felt like their prices to portions aren't aligned. Vegans will most definitely enjoy all the different flavors in one bowl. Im being generous with my review in hopes they listen to the customers, if they want to be successful in this town. We have Cava and other places that serve bowls close to them, that give a good portion size of protein for the same price or less.

It was very good. Be advised that the stew contains bones from the meats. The stew has a Smokey flavor, the orange slices are traditional to cut the richness of the stew by contrast with citrus and the collards are shredded and sautéed with garlic. The store is very clean. There are lots of Brazilian food options, even cases of guarana antartica canned soda. There is also a refrigerated case for meats, dairy and treats in addition to the dry goods and the fresh bakery items. This is a fun store. The manager also said they do a daily lunch plate every weekday that is $14 per plate, pre-portioned out but reportedly a good sized serving. I will need to give this a try.

I ordered a guava and cheese stuffed "taco" but the shell is made from a gummy style dough. I forget the name of it. And I ordered a fried dough stuffed with chicken. Both were so good and my friend got their sandwich. I can't wait to come back as their lunch deals look amazing. They also have a Brazilian market here and I picked up a hot sauce and a garlic sauce. I have never had garlic sauce before and wow, life changing. The hot sauce was also fantastic. Our waitress was so sweet and her and my friend chatted in Portuguese for a bit and she also spoke terrific English. I will be back! There's plenty of tables for dining and plenty of parking!

    My friend hosted a private party of 32 guests at the Divine Street location on yesterday in…read moreColumbia, South Carolina, and unfortunately, the experience fell significantly below expectations. Our server was initially polite and seemed attentive. However, it quickly became apparent that one server was assigned to manage our entire party without additional support. For a group of this size, that decision ultimately impacted the entire dining experience. It took approximately one hour for drinks to arrive and an hour and a half for appetizers to begin coming out. By that time, most of the party had already arrived. Despite notifying the server twice, I never received my appetizer, even though everyone else at the table had been served. I was told he was "speaking with the manager" about it, but the issue was never resolved. Entrée orders were not taken until nearly two hours into the event. When the food arrived, several guests who ordered medium steaks were served steaks that were clearly rare. When this was addressed, the server insisted the steaks were cooked properly and stated that visible blood was correct for medium doneness. There was no immediate offer to have the steaks remade, which led to unnecessary tension at the table. Additionally, drink refills were not offered proactively, and appetizer plates were not cleared until a patron specifically requested it -- and that occurred after entrées had already been served. Basic service flow was noticeably absent throughout the evening. When we requested to speak with a manager, the server stated he could not retrieve one because he was assisting other guests. I ultimately had to personally locate the manager on duty. The manager did listen and offered to comp my meal, which I declined after we had already been seated for nearly three hours. As a local food reviewer, I understand the challenges of the service industry, especially with large parties. However, staffing a group of 32 with only one server is a management decision that directly impacts service quality. This experience felt less like an isolated mistake and more like a preventable operational issue. LongHorn has built a reputation for quality food and dependable service. Unfortunately, this visit did not reflect that.

    Y'all. We eat at a lot of Indian restaurants and at this point, it's difficult to stand out. When…read moreI tell you Persis stood out, believe me. We were in Greenville for the week on vacation. We had already had "okay" Indian delivery from another place in town on Monday. My wife was shopping at a store in the plaza, so I decided to go check Persis out rather than wait outside a dressing room. Saw they had Masala Dosa on the menu and promptly forgot which store my wife was in. The masala dosa was amazing. Crisp on the ends, good flavor, the masala in the middle was just spicy enough and nicely done. The tomato chutney had nice spice, and the coconut chutney was good also. The sambar was probably the best I've had in my life. I probably would have fought you for it. The lady managing the place was outgoing and welcoming and chatted me up while I was there. She heard we were traveling and told us we should come back on Friday for the buffet. Unlimited dosa? I ain't dumb. We went back two days later as instructed. The buffet was large and had a great selection of veg and non-veg selections, as well as a dosa station. Here are my highlights: Tawa Vegetables- basically griddled seasoned veg mix. These were a stand out item for us. Simple veg but done really well. Eggplant with green chilis - this was suggested to be spicy, but I didn't find it to be so, and I'm a bit of a weenie. It had good flavor, and Baingan Bharta is my all time favorite, so it was fun to try a different yet similar dish. Veg Biryani - light and well cooked. I enjoyed it very much. Butter Chicken - Y'all, this might be the first time in my life I've seen someone make butter chicken with texture and richness to this level. When they say it's their signature dish, I understand why. The chicken was grilled and had *actual* char marks, giving it actual texture and flavor. The curry tasted amazing and had so much butter that it was richer than Jeff Bezos. I almost couldn't finish it because it was so rich, but Mama didn't raise a quitter. 10/10, would eat again right now. There was a fish dish that I didn't try and a Chana Saag I just never made room for. There were many choices across a wide swath of foods and flavors. The Chai they had was also excellent. Apparently they make their own Chai Masala rather than a mix. The staff was friendly and checked on us many times. Overall, 10/10 and would go back to Greenville just to eat here again.

    The buffet had dishes that had no meat or vegetables in them. They were just sauce. No chicken,…read morebeef or shrimp. It makes me think that it's a cost cutting measure and they're trying to dupe their customers. Service was non existent because of another cost cutting measure: 1 waiter. Not worth the $16.99+tax price. Go somewhere else.
