Went for my birthday during the week. We actually thought it would be like Texas de Brazil, but apparently for lunch they do a la carte. We decided to stay anyway and it was alright.

I went here to hang out with some friends around Christmas time. The drinks were good and the decor was actually really nice and trendy. Great place to kick back and relax after work.

Great ambiance. Food was OK. The restaurant was empty, but the bar/lounge was very active & full.

Bland. Maybe the fault in my experience is that I was attending a Christmas luncheon for a business here. Seating was not well organized, the food was bland and the service about the same.

The location is drab at best ...and the main question is why in a small (relatively) city like POS would they open this when there is already a Texas de Brazil...There cant be room for two. More importantly the food was as drab as the dimly lit location and the staff need to know their products before they sell it...they... More

Nice option for upscale dining in a city with few choices at this level. We were the only diners for the evening so it would be unfair to judge the level of service. Of note there was a private adult function in the lounge and bathroom facilites were in that area only making my son's trek to the wash room... More
