I'm extremely disappointed with the experience my mother-in-law and her boyfriend had at Porcão BH. We gave them a voucher as a birthday gift because we wanted him, on his first trip to Brazil, to have a great churrasco experience. Unfortunately, it turned into the worst restaurant experience they've had in Brazil. When they arrived, they informed the staff about the voucher and were seated normally. However, after waiting for 45 minutes, the waiters were completely ignoring their table. Meat was being served everywhere except to them, and when my mother-in-law asked a waiter about it, he simply laughed and walked away. That level of disrespect is unacceptable. Only after she asked to speak with the manager did the staff suddenly decide to start serving them. By then, the experience was already ruined. They felt humiliated and unwelcome, especially considering this was supposed to be a special birthday dinner and a positive first impression of Brazilian churrasco culture. In the end, they chose to pay only for the drinks and leave without even using the voucher because they no longer felt comfortable staying there. Based on what they experienced, it was their first and definitely their last time at Porcão BH. We are now in contact with the credit card company to dispute the purchase and request a refund for the voucher, since the service that was promised was never properly provided. A restaurant can make mistakes, but disrespect, neglect, and mocking customers should never happen. read more

My first experience in a truly Brazilian steakhouse and it was amazing! We sat in the porch and were treated to great views of BH at night. A lot of locals seemed to come here for celebrations in big groups with friends. With covid, the buffet was closed but you could still order the appetizers and sides and they would be brought to the table. The main attraction--the meat--was to die for. Perfectly cooked and seasoned! We even got to try the beef rib, which was a treat. To make the meal even better, we had great caipirinhas which complimented everything nicely. Despite being stuffed we still managed to have dessert: a passion fruit ice cream with black currant spirit on top. All in all a great experience and a great meal! read more

4.0 | Parcão is definitely an experience. the vallet and the fact that we were the only Black people eating there definitely communicated that this was a space where the elites go. I would suggest you pace yourself. it's buffet style, or Rodízio style. so the servers come to you with a plate and then serve you different cuts of meats as they go around the table. we enjoyed the steak, there was also a chicken thigh with house made honey mustard that was fantastic. The garlic knots are great, and the chicken hearts were also amazing. all the drinks were great but definitely overpriced, we ended up with the banana flambé dessert and it was so so so delightful. I highly recommend trying it. so you get your money worth? 169 real = $35, I would say so, if you have that privilege of conversion, but for the average Brazilian, this place is very expensive. overall, it was a great experience, but sad that it's not really appealing to the average local. which brings me to my next review of Baiaña Acaraje, a restaurant serving food from the Bahia region. The best meal I had in BH was from Baiaña Acaraje. read more

It used to be great but the last time I've been there I was quite disappointed. The meat was ok but not as good as before and the price went up. There are better places to go for rodizio in town. read more
