They responded back to me and asked me to email them so I did. They gave me a nonworking email. That's so shady.

Not a fan, I had high expectations here and feel bad writing this review but hey this is an educational piece fir the restaurant. The steak flavor was jacked with sodium and the meat had an odd smell. The chicken looked amazing till you taste it and also had a foul smell to it. They are no competition to the other Brazilian steak houses in greater Tampa area. I never seen chicken hearts on a stick but hey maybe great for some. NO filet mignon like the other steak houses offer...Thats big for us. We paid $240 including tip (20%) and simply not worth it at all. If they are to make this place work, they need to invest in quality and some Braveheart chefs that can put them on the map. read more

Rodizio Grill Brazilian Steakhouse Wesley Chapel - Brazilian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

We had such a horrible experience here. The general staff have been very hard working but the moment we arrived we received horrible attitude and service from the manager. We told her we had food aversions so we dont eat everything and she didn't even serve us anything other than chicken when we repeatedly asked for fish. The manager had the attitude of someone who absolutely did not want us there and made us feel unwelcome. read more

It s a pretty place, great service , it's a very small choice of salads. Great sangria!

Delicious meats and service was wonderful Great variety for everyone to enjoy Nice atmosphere read more

Service was great! Wish I could give a 5 but the food was awful. Salad bar items were just not good, nothing tasted fresh. They did have lots of meat options but the quality was so awful. A bad piece of chicken and the server kept trying to serve my husband fat pieces... are they trained to just get rid of the meat? Please don't waste your money here. This pains me as this is so close to my house. read more

Worst steakhouse experience I've ever had, they brought 10 skillets of pineapple and 2 skillets of meat then when I asked for more meat they said they couldn't bring out more cause they were closing, they brought more pineapple then steak they should be a pineapple house not steak house they took forever with the 2 skillets of steak they brought, I will never go there again I've had better experiences going to McDonald's then this "steakhouse" restaurant. read more

Turned away at the door! Because the 8 hostesses said reservations only. The company nor site specific site do not state this and the door itself only says reservations highly recommended. I find this a bad business practice. We were prepared to wait but never given that opportunity. But really, how hard would a table for 2 at 5:45 be? I understand maybe if I had said a party of 8 or more, but it was just me and my wife. Will not return and took my $200 plus elsewhere. Should be a zero star review. read more

Quickly seated. Staff was attentive...if you get table side stuff they give you super small portions. Decent variety at the self serving area. Wasn't cheap. I wouldn't go out if my way to return. read more

Finally made it to Rodizio and I want to say it was excellent! The food, the waiter, the atmosphere it was all nice! I really enjoyed my dinner. The meats was delicious. read more

Rodizio Grill Brazilian Steakhouse Wesley Chapel - A little of everything on my plate. The meats was on a separate plate. Everything was good! - Brazilian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

In town to visit family and had dinner at this recently opened location. Service was fabulous especially our server Nae, she explained the whole process since we were new to the experience, was very attentive and had a great attitude/spirit. The gauchos described each different type of meat they were bringing around and made sure you got the temp you wanted. The flavors were all amazing! It's a very pretty room with areas for private groups if desired, some rustic touches like the large natural wood table. Considering there were at least 8-10 birthday songs while we were dining I'm guessing this will be *the* place to celebrate in the area. The amount of food choices is somewhat overwhelming. You can choose to make your dinner from just the sides and salad bar for a lower price and there are definitely enough entree type options to do that but why would you pass up on the experience?! There is really no waiting on the food once you are seated, they get right to it as soon as you flip your indicator to green and the skewers start coming. Saving room probably isn't an option here but the dessert choices are worth it too, we split a flan for the table but we're tempted by many of the plates. read more

Everything was AMAZING!! To the food to the service, our server and the boy staff were so sweet and accommodating!! The host up front especially Gabi was so sweet brining us to our table and making sure we were good!! Felt so welcoming and the environment is so pretty!! Definitely will be coming back for sure! recommend Alexis as your server so sweet! read more

Rodizio Grill Brazilian Steakhouse Wesley Chapel - Brazilian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

Nice place. Buffet was not pleasing at all. The meat handlers came to the table but the meat that was popular was the steaks which rarely came out. But the mash potatoes needed some extra work. read more

Horrible Experience -- Don't Waste Your Time or Money I rarely leave reviews, but my experience at Rodizio Grill in Lutz was so bad I had to speak up. From the moment we walked in, the service was disorganized and inattentive. It only got worse from there. The meats -- which are supposed to be the highlight of any rodizio -- were dry, bland, and tasted like they'd been sitting out way too long. Nothing was fresh, and the cuts were incredibly low quality. Honestly, I've had better steak at a fast food place. To top it all off, the manager was shockingly rude when we tried to politely raise our concerns. No apology, just attitude. It felt like they didn't care whether we enjoyed our meal or not -- and trust me, we didn't. This place is overpriced, underwhelming, and unprofessional. There are plenty of better Brazilian steakhouses in the Tampa area. Skip this one. read more

As someone who frequents Brazilian steakhouses, I was excited to try Rodizio for the first time today. Starting off with the pros - no wait time on a Friday evening, friendly servers, the decor and ambiance are nice, and our waitress was super sweet and attentive. The garlic chicken and beef ribs were delicious, but that's about where it ends. Almost all of the hot food I tried from the self serve area was overcooked and hard as a rock. Even the white rice was crunchy and inedible. The first batch of fries my kids got were also rock hard solid and tasted old. I will say that our waitress grabbed us a second serving of fries that tasted much better, so perhaps the first helping we received was just sitting out for a while, as it wasn't busy at all. Even the Brazilian cheese bread was 50/50, half the pieces I got were normal and the other half were like biting into bricks. As other reviewers have mentioned, the steak portions that they cut for you are teeny tiny, especially in comparison to what they serve at other Brazilian steakhouse restaurants. I'm glad that we tried it out, but don't plan to return to Rodizio in the future, as this place just didn't meet my standards, food-wise. read more

Because there is so many mixed reviews I thought I'd give me two cents... we went this past Thursday and for background- I almost only did the salad bar because I'm not big on meats but am a side and salad junky, husband once did the carnivore and paleo diet lol so this was for his birthday and he wanted me to try the meat cuts with him. We were both extremely happy with the cuts offered, they were cooked very well, nothing was chewy or overdone (meh the bacon wrapped sirloin was a little overdone but to give them credit, it's hard to get crispness on bacon without overdoing the cut inside) he loved the lamb, and I even like the pork loin or chops? I'm not completely certain which it was but this is a dish I typically don't like. Sides and salad bar were great too but we wanted to try as many cuts as we could so we didn't actually have much from it. the service and atmosphere was wonderful as well! we will be back read more

We visited this establishment for a birthday celebration with a party of 8. After watching YouTube videos of the Rodizio Orlando location, I was hyped to enjoy a great meal! Well unfortunately I was let down. First impressions are everything when it comes to first time customers. Eric, our server, was the first problem we encountered. He was cold and showed no welcoming enthusiasm. It was strictly business only with this guy. The second problem was the choices on the salad bar. When the place is crowded the chaffing trays are empty. One item that this Rodizio is known for is their homemade Chimichurri sauce, but this location didn't even bother to blend the ingredients so you basically had a oilly soup with large parsley and cilantro leaves. The third problem was the choices of your meats. I counted four to five. For the price $54.99 a person, I believe we should be getting more than just different flovered sirloins and chicken. Where are the baby back ribs and beef ribs that the Orlando location offer? Also with high end price the salad bar should include some desserts for those who choose not to have the meat selections. I can also advise you to check your bill at the end, yes they added a 20% tip without advising us of this charge! This place is a "don't visit again"kind of place. read more

So we went with high hopes after visiting just about every major Brazilian steakhouses in central Florida as this is close to where we call home. In Tampa we've been to Texas De Brazil (TDB) and Terra Gaucha. In Orlando Fogo De Chau and Adega Gaucha. The best thing about Rodizio Grill is the building itself. They did a very nice job and the architecture is great. Super easy to park with lot overflow at the Kohl's right next door. When it comes to the food, unfortunately they're not ready for prime time. Mind you that they've only been open for about a week and I'm sure they still need to get their footing. The staff at the front desk were friendly. We didn't have a reservation yet despite lots of open tables, we had to wait for a bit. Others were waiting too. They initially said about half an hour. We went to the bar and grabbed a drink. The bar, for some mysterious reason, vibrates. At least it did the entire time we sat there. We all commented that it was odd. The bathrooms are new and nice & clean. They had a men's room, a woman's room, and two others for single use which I thought was great. If you had any concerns about who may be in either of the men's or women's you could opt for the single use so everyone could be happy in 2025. Only 15 minutes later one of the staff grabbed us and brought us to our table which was a nice surprise. I've been to so many Brazilian steakhouses like this I can now quickly determine the quality of the meal in most cases by visiting the cold and hot food bar first and looking at one thing: A quick glance at the wheel of parmesan cheese is a great indicator. At TDB every time we've gone the wheel was from BelGioioso from Wisconsin. Visit Terra Gaucha in South Tampa and you'll see an authentic wheel of parmesan cheese from Italy. The wheel at Rodizio Grill, had no markings what so ever. No clue who made it or where it came from. The menu is more limited than that of TDB and FAR less than options at Terra Gaucha. You won't see cuts of meat here that you do at the other places. We never were asked how we actually like our meat cooked like we have at every other place we visited. The staff walking around with the skewers didn't seem like they had much comfort performing the job they were doing (again could get better in time). The skewers of meat also seemed smaller compared to the other places. The size of the pieces of meat they would cut for you seemed more like you'd see in a tapas bar than in a steakhouse. There was one guy who actually seemed to give us a nice sized slice of meat, however we only saw him one time. Whoever is in charge of cooking the meat needs help. Just about every piece of meat we had was overcooked and mostly grayed out. If you like well done then you'll love this place. Everyone at our table liked medium rare to rare. We never got any. Also we had to ask 7 times to actually get certain meats to make it to our table. The other places seem to do much better in having more staff walking around with skewers of meat than Rodizio Grill. As for the quality of the meat I would say slightly below that of TDB unfortunately. Absolutely they don't hold a candle to the quality of meat at Terra Gaucho locally. The other places bring your cheesy bread, maduros and fried yucca hot sides to your table. Rodizio makes you go get them yourself. A minor thing? Not sure. Just thought it was different. Side note the BEST when it comes to side dishes is Adega Gaucho in Orlando (and my opinion best overall churrasco in central Florida slightly beating Terra Gaucho). They have MANY choices which help elevate the experience. I always get the black beans and white rice at the hot bar every place we visit. Rodizio's was tasty and I was happy about that. There was no pressure from the staff to hurray up and eat and leave. The people there are pleasant. Just not firing on all cylinders yet. Surprised by all the 5 star reviews on Google. I would say that Terra Gaucho in South Tampa still by far the best in Tampa and it's not even close. Best quality meats, lots of selection, great quality ingredients at the hot and cold bar. It's worth the extra $10. I really don't think TDB is all that great after going there more than 5 or 6 times just from a standpoint of the quality of the meat they send out of the kitchen. Rodizio Grill, unfortunately I felt like it was a corporate attempt at the true churrasco experience. And that's fine. I get there's different level of quality of all types of restaurants. Was just hoping for far more as an excuse to go more often being so close. All of us at our table said we'd go back to Terra Gaucho again while sitting at our table at Rodizio Grill. We'd drive the extra distance and pay the extra $$ for the far better experience. And none would revisit TDB nor wanted to revisit Rodizio Grill. read more

Slow service, not a good variety of meats, meats were served like samples, very thin and small size. Not what you expected for the price. Very disappointing. read more

Excellent service I am recommend for all occasions nice people very friendly all times

The food in the hot bar such and the polenta rice beans etc was super good and tasted like authentic home cooked Brazilian food. The server was amazing and the waiter as well 10/10 service the only thing is the meat quality is not the best and it almost tastes like it's been sitting there for a day. But either than that it was decent and service was amazing! read more

The atmosphere was great. The drinks were great. The service was wonderful The salad bar was fine, but the meats were lacking flavor and somewhere very dry. read more

I think the customer service was amazing. The food is just very mediocre compared to the other steakhouses. Texas de Brazil and Terra Gaucha have significantly better food quality, and surprisingly, they're cheaper. People are very nice but I'd rather make the drive for better food quality and variety. I do hope this place improves on the food and hopefully gets better. But yeah, I'm sad to say it's the food quality for the price and that's coming from someone who will eat anything. read more

The atmosphere was lovely and the salad bar was fresh and delicious. Where they list me was the meat. It was extremely ivercooked and dry. No matter which type of meat we tried, the result was the same. Even the salmon was hard and dry. I'm afraid it was a one and done for me. read more

Cold buffet was gross and meats were nowhere near worth 55$ .. if I'm spending 55$ id rather go to a steakhouse and pigout on a ribeye with nice sides and an actual salad that doesn't make my tummy feel crampy after like I'm going to sit on the toilet and have a blowout where everything flies out like a water balloon fell on the floor. read more

When we went only chicken and pork served at the table, even pineapple why would I pay so much money for chicken, pork, pineapple and chicken hearts plus only 2 types of steak and tasted like rubber. Gaucho's with poor training, not personable like in Texas of Brazil. The only friendly Gaucho was a young black kid (forgot his name), but had the best attitude of them all. I regret spending my money there. I will not be giving it a 2nd chance for my money, unless they change management and serve better meats. read more

The food was amazing and it was worth the price. The service was also great. Our server Daniel did an amazing job.

Dirty!! All the tables had tablecloths and when they removed them from the last guest you can see how dirty the table was. They didn't clean them, they just put a fresh tablecloth on it. My fresh napkin at my seat had dried food in it and I got a plate at the salad bar was dirty as well. The food at the salad bar looked like it had been there all day. They were bringing out pieces of meat that were an inch thick like they were using every last piece. You never would see that at Terra Gaucho or Texas De Brazil. I saw more straw wrapper on the floor with staff just walking by. If these are all things we see, what aren't we seeing? They need to find a way to do better but we won't be back. We will drive to Terra Gaucho. read more

Great opening. Awesome food. Service was solid. Will eat here again. Oh the ambiance was great too. The gauchos are really quick at getting us food. Wife had the cinnamon fried something and it was amazing. I think it is her favorite dessert here. read more

Imagine golden corral asking you to make a reservation to eat at their restaurant, that is what it is like to go here. Is the atmosphere nicer than a golden corral? yes but only because they charge 50 dollars for their buffet. Call it a steak house all you want but its a buffet. read more

The place was nice. The food was good but the portions were small. When I asked the waiter why so small pieces he told me he was limited on what he was able to give to every customer and they get even smaller around 9pm cause more customers come in. I paid for all I could eat I want all I could eat. The dessert was not cooked all the way I got some Chiro thing that was mush on the inside. The waitress filled my glass of water and I didn't see her the rest of the night till it was dessert time so I set through the meal without a drink till I found another lady to fill my glass. Definitely need some work at this place. They don't have filet mignon like the other Brazilian steakhouses too, and there were a couple other things that they didn't offer. They did offer chicken heart never seen that before and it wasn't too bad to be honest with you, but if I were going to spend $55, I would much rather go to Texas de Brazil or terra gaucha in south Tampa. read more
