Outdoor seating today though was a definite plus, granted you're on a secondary road behind the main drag on Copacabana beach. We had picanha ao braseiro which is a kidney shaped steak with some fat - no complaints. It was a perfect medium with salt crystals that occasionally explodes in your mouth for that extra flavor. For 162 Brazilian Real(currency) for two people, it's a good deal. It came with diced tomatoe and onions a perfect offset. Happy I came here. Apologies for the pics - wasn't expecting to review the place.

They didn't really speak English but it wasn't difficult to order. We got the steak and chicken. They came with some kind of vinegar infused veggies, rice, powdered stuff, and fries. The guy helping us scooped food onto our plates. It was an odd but interesting experience. Overall we loved the meat here, and the service was also great! Not to mention it was super affordable! Highly recommend this place!

I came here on a quiet Thursday. Unfortunate at 6:30 not many people in the restaurant. The…read morerestaurant was clean and the furniture was clean. I decided to go for the buffet. Compared to the states they had different items at the bar that we usually see at fogo in the states. For one they have one or 2 extra types of smoked fish. They had different fruit offerings like dragon fruit kiwi and grapes. Didn't get the prosciutto since it did have a few fruit flies on it. There were different offerings of meat compared to the states. The beef rib is definitely better than Houston's. The best was probably the prime rib or ribeye steak. The cheese balls were definitely different they are fried. The service was very attentive even for English speakers. The picanha steak could be better. Overall excellent. The dessert was delicious.

The options of meat include, but are not limited to: -ribeye -chicken thighs -chick hearts -lamb -beef shoulder They also have a host of starchy Brazilian side dishes and salads. Luckily they have an iPad that has an English menu. Overall the meat was very flavorful, of course I went for all the ribeye I could eat. They have 3 meat temperature , rare, medium, done. The medium was more medium rare for us on the Northern Plain. The dessert was also delicious. I would definitely recommend and go back. Some of the waiters spoke english, but not many.

Our server was very patient and tried his best. The food was good, with all at the table enjoyed their meal. The sides were served family style and the portions were large. The restaurant is located on third floor of a popular shopping mall. We sat in the mall area (opposed to inside the restaurant) so the noise level was a little loud, but conversation could easily happen. Will definitely dine here again.

Ordered the Ojo de Bife cut, medium rare, with 2 sides--puff potatoes and rice. Steak was very good, though not the best I've had in Rio. A little pricy for Rio at $63 US (R$ 343) with a soda and tip. They did have a nice jazz duo entertaining us during lunch on a Saturday afternoon which added to the overall pleasant experience.

We were driven to avenue Olegário Maciel in Barra and there were many outdoor bars and restaurants with live music dancing and fun. We eventually stopped at Bar do Adão to eat. They had maybe 10 tables outside and we were late for dinner at about 9:30pm. I think maybe 2 other tables were occupied. The staff was friendly and tried to speak some English. The draft beer was served in a frozen mug and went down smooth. It was nice to get another frozen mug with each refill. We ordered filet Mignon for 3 it was good for the two of us. It came with fries, white rice, black beans and that sawdust they serve down here. The steak was one of the best I have ever eaten! Great flavor and it had a little crispy garlic chunks on top. The rice and beans were on point and the fries were pretty good. I don't eat the sawdust but since they had boiled egg in it I figured maybe it would taste better. Nope. 2 days later we were in Fogo de Chão and still talking about how the filet at Bar do Adão was so much better. I give this 5 stars for the location, food and beer. Get away from the tourist traps and see what the Brazilians do for a nice nite out.
