I used to visit Buzin on a regular basis for lunch and dinner when we lived in Buzios a few years back. I love that you can chose from such a great variety of food and pay by the kilo. From churrasco to pastas and sushi, there's something for every one. Whether you visit with kids, friends or as a... More

We ate here for lunch twice and were satisfied with service and great selection of dishes. It is 'comida por kilo' and a bit pricey but quality, variety, healthy, fresh selections made up for the price. Vegetarians will be happy here - they also have a pasta bar, sushi bar and churassco area.....I had a fish dish that was probably... More

Food tasted the same as every mass produced kilo restaurant food. Not worth the money. Chopp was ok.

Good looking restaurant, very good food but at a price, a very high price. R$ 72 reais per kg, that's more than more upscale places in Rio or Sao Paulo. Service is good, even too good that it bothered me a bit. I barely sat down and a waiter asked for the drinks and when I finished eating, it literally... More

The kilo restaurant is quite popular in Brazil, and for very good, basic food, pay for what you select, a good value. This is not upscale haute cuisine, but good food at reasonable prices, especially on Xmas or NYE when many places are closed or have specials--aka charge double. We enjoy sashimi, and the salmon was good, as was the... More

We feasted at this buffet - an amazing steak, fish, shrimp, and healthy vegetable options too. Just don't pile your plate too high because they weigh your plate on the way out and it adds up fast! I had one of my favorite meals in Buzios there for 40 Reais. Plus the staff is very friendly!

Buzin definitely wins with choice, there are just too many options!And you get the churrascaria section included where you choose your cut of meat and have it made on the spot. The sushi part is in a different section and has a different per kilo price. The restaurant itself was clean, spacious but most of the times quite full!Once we... More

Buzin from the outside looks just like any other kilo joint with a buffet style variety of food that you gather up on your plate and thenhave it weighed at the counter. But where Buzin scores, over the competition, is the sheer quality of what is available. it will be hard not to find what you are looking for -... More

This is a restaurant where you go to a buffet, serves yourself and the plate goes on a scale. You pay by the weight of food in your plate. The restaurant is big, the food is good and fresh. My only complain is the price, because it is expensive for a place like "weight and pay".

Like any kilo restaurant (prices your order by the weight), this cafeteria has the drawbacks of, well, cafeterias--the food tends to sit. On the other hand, has a very broad selection of foods, and is in a prime location.
