    When at the grove, Pampas Grill! Spicy Chicken with the Jalapeño sauce is so delicious!! Garlic Beef is a close second. I am always happy to eat all that Spicy Chicken!

    Delicious food as always, you serve yourself however the food is prepared wonderful so service is a 50/50, [[HIGHLIGHT]]being at the farmers market it's got a great feel as your sitting enjoying your food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only thing that is kind of a turn off is this time we got bread and potato salad so we served ourself 100% and when checking out the male working the register was very short and seemed annoyed when I gave a $2.00 tip on a $6.00 bill.

    It's honestly rare for me to find Brazilian food, so I was really excited to try this place. I'm a huge fan of black beans and plantains, and all of the meat options looked so good being cut right in front of you. I got the sirloin cap and lamb leg. The sirloin cap was amazing, and while I probably wouldn't get the lamb again because it was a little tough, that's honestly on me for trying to get everything. I also really liked the whole concept here. The plates are weighed, and you self serve all your sides, which makes it feel really fun and customizable. I went on a Tuesday afternoon and the line was pretty short, so I'd definitely recommend going around then if you can.

    I came here as I read great ratings online. The meat flavor was good, however, the self serve bar food was not very hot. It felt warm but not what you expect your food to be when you get fresh food. The same went for the meat. The meat was slightly warm at best, which detracted a bit from the experience. The service was great however - they are fast and they keep the line moving. The seating outside is the general farmers market seating at the grove. Aside from the temperature of the food, it was pretty good.

    I have been here for years because parking here is very difficult. We got couple types of beef, potato salad, Caesar salad, noodle and cheese rolls to share. The line was long but it moved pretty quickly. The meats were flavorful and tender. Caesar salad was kind of soggy. The cheese bread and potato salad were very good. I wish they have a location closer to me.

    Pampas Grill is my go-to spot. Better than the AYCE of Fogo de Chao. You can spend $14-20 per person and get an appetizing meal of sides and meats that will fill you to satisfaction. My review of Pampas is ***** five stars My review of Farmer's Market Parking would be Zero 0 Stars... Pampas has nothing to do with the parking or parking policy and I feel are also victims alongside customers of the Farmer's Market greedy parking system. Tuesday 12-30-25, coming to Farmers Market (and The Grove, adjacent to Farmer's Market) during the festive holidays to support the local merchants, ended up being a visit of regret. Parking at the Farmer's Market is horrendous to the degree that their policy, validation and rates they charge customers to shop there is very counterintuitive to supporting their retailers and restaurants to generate foot traffic and business. I wonder if the food court / shopping center's clients (those who run a business here) know of this mismanagement that affects their business? The food court / shopping center's parking system is disingenuous to supporting retailers and customers. You park, you eat, you shop and buy, hang out for maybe 2-3 hours, spend money and even with a merchant parking validation you pay $17 to park and support the center's businesses. The retailers who I'm sure pay a hefty rent should be in an uproar to this issue which if resolved could mean a surge in customers and income. Let the public support the merchants and make parking FREE for patrons who make purchases.

    Finally decided to join the queue to see what the fuss is all about here. I was pleasantly surprised. The churrascaria here is as good as those higher end AYCE spots that charge high premiums. The cuts are well seasoned and tenderly grilled. More flavor than simply salt and pepper like most other places. Pricing is fair for the quality and quantity of protein and side dishes. This $26 mouth watering plate is outstanding.

    I usually go to the Culver City location but was at the grove today and we were hungry. Food always hits, they have a variety of salads and hot side dishes and the usual cuts of meat. My go to is always sausage and top sirloin with plantains and greens.

    Today, it was a 5-star experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This Brazilian spot is located in The Grove's Farmers Market, so always big lines.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Today, however, it was fewer people, friendly fast service and my plate got to me pretty quickly. I got myself some tasty tomato salad, rice, delicious fried plantains and 2 kinds of churrasco meats- some top sirloin and sirloin cap. Both meats were very juicy, right off the grill, thinly sliced and served to my plate. Although both meats were similar in taste and its soft texture, they still were incredibly delicious. The green and orange salsa that they give you was a great spicy dipping sauce for the meats and for the yummy fried plantains. Great quick lunch! Will be back for more!

    Pay by weight spot, where you can enjoy Brazilian steakhouse style churrasco dining!! Vegetables are incredibly tasty and fresh. We had beets, artichoke hearts, and broccoli. They also did sides well- the fried plantains and yucca were perfectly fried. For meat, we tried the top sirloin and sirloin cap. So tender and well flavored. The meat is continuously rotating and they'll cut it to your liking. In the Farmer's Market. Worth the line!

    Im Brazilian so I love trying new and existing spots that offer meals from my homeland! Here you will find friendly service and awesome tasting barbecue prepared fresh for you to pick from! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only kinda negative thing about this place is that you will have to eat outside and the food generally doesn't stay hot by the time you grab a table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It is still worth it for us to drive about an hour to come here once in a while to have authentic Brazilian "churrasco" experience. Try it!

    Pampas is in the Famers Market area at the Grove. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Insanely crowded on the weekends!!! Come prepared to look for parking and to wait in line to get your food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The restaurant is in a food court setting so it can get busy in the weekends. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Finding a good table in the shade was difficult, we ended up finding a table in the sun. Kind of annoying, but we were thankful we were able to find a table![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The restaurant is cafeteria style, you'll scoop your own food, pick your meats and preferred wellness and the servers will cut the meat straight off the stick for you. There are a variety of cold dishes: build your own salad, Caesar salad, beet salad, heart of palm salad, boiled eggs, broccoli, cucumber salad. Enough options to satisfy anyone! The hot dishes varies between stews, pasta, rice, and beans. All very tasty and brought a variety of fresh flavors to pair with the meats. They had different Brazilian meats, a good variety of beef and chicken and a few options for lamb and pork. I chose mainly veggies side dishes, wouldn't want to get too full of carbs!! The meat was the main star of the plate and it definitely did. You can ask the server for your preferred wellness whether you like it medium or well done, they'll give it to you. I asked for meat well done, I love a good char grilled piece and it didn't disappoint!! The meats were tender, perfectly well without being dry. Seasoned great with a blend of spices. This meal is soooo filling, it's nice that it's located at the Grove so there's a ton of stuff to do!

    Cashier didn't greet or smiled at me, but just said "You can tip as best as you can," while I had to serve myself and weigh the food.

    The white meat was dry and tasteless, the potatoes were tasteless; the only thing that tasted okay was the black beans which were salty.

    Can you order a pound of meat and then a pound of salad or salads or Onondaga combo platters?

    Hi Helen, you can order any item by the pound at our restaurant. So yes, if you wanted to make one plate meat only, and another plate salads and hot dishes only, you are welcome to do so. Hope this helps!

    Are any or all of the meat options keto-friendly? (thinking primarily about the marinade)

    Hi Joy, our meats are marinated with olive oil, salt, citrus juices, fresh garlic, fresh herbs and in the case of the Spicy Chicken, Malagueta pepper. Hope this helps!

    Do you have torresmo?

    Hi Isabel, thanks for reaching out! We do not have torresmo at this time - hope this helps. Attentively, Pampas Grill Team

    Does anyone know if they raised their prices? I went last week and got the usual portions but the price hiked by more than 10$ for two plates.

    Hi Daniel, thanks for reaching out. We raised our prices slightly around the new year to ensure quality of product and service. The combination platters are now $11.85/lb, whereas before they were $11.45/lb. We hope this information is helpful!

It was also annoying for the waitress (not the gal that served us btw - a host perhaps) to give the vibe like they were doing us a favor by applying the $50 Birthday promo that THEY send via email (note, I verbally this flagged when we arrived just in case - but they didn't initially have it on our bill). My head is thinking "calm down--we ate minimally and got drinks. Don't offer it if you're going to have an attitude about adjusting the bill". It was just weird. They also didn't offer any bday dessert treat but we weren't super pressed bc we were so full. The meat was a bit overdone and all kind of tasted the same this visit. Didn't get to try the lamb chops and a few other meats, but still has a nice variety. Salad bar is top notch and consistent, although wish their black beans were plain due to all the meat. Drinks were ok--heavy pours but lower quality wine. The $29 "Wine Experience" package was worth it for my husband who likes variety of wines with his dinner depending on what he's eating. I'm sure I'll come again but it's been bumped a few notches on my Go To list.
