The Caipirinhas are amazing (in so many varieties), but you have to try their Sangria. To die for.
Jeremy HagerMarch 24, 2013If you're going to have the Brazilian experience for dinner you might want to skip lunch. It's a lot of delicious foods.
Chelz SMarch 3, 2013I've been to over 5 Brazilian restaurants across the country. Samba is in my top 2!!!!! I'll be back when I return to Cali!!
Stacey GrubbsFebruary 1, 2012The drinks are great you have to get the salad bar and meat combo buffet it is the best!
Arian EvansJanuary 30, 2015I've eaten at Brazilian steak houses all over the world. This is literally the worst quality, most overcooked, poorly seasoned meat I've had in years. Colleagues and I couldn't stop LOLing it's so bad- Leonel DiazJune 16, 2012Amazing! Dancers are entertaining. the meat today was a bit salty. Great overall.
Andrew HobbsAugust 27, 2018The food was very good but completely overpriced. We didn’t check the prices closely enough and ended up paying $170 for two meals.
Trevor FoystonNovember 4, 2013They seem to not have nearly enough staff. The staff they have is great but expect to wait for a very long time for the meats.
Isaac CruzMarch 17, 2015By far the worst one I've been to. Slow service, unacceptable amount of fat in their meats, sad caipirinhas. Go elsewhere.
KiM PHAMSeptember 14, 2013Terrible AYCE, the food here is horriible! Very salty and super dry..No wonder why its all over groupon & travel zoo. Gave it a chance cause I love Brazilian bbq but this is not the place to go.
- DT RNovember 10, 2012Meat was all overcooked and dry. Drink was poorly mixed. Friendly waitstaff, but your $38 is better spent elsewhere.
Will ZucchiJanuary 27, 2017Decepção.. atendimento nota zero, pedimos a la Carte e a quantidade de carne que veio no prato foi mínima.. sem contar a demora (além de nós tinha só uma mesa ocupada.. restaurante praticamente vazio)
Karen JonzMarch 31, 2019Tudo de ruim. Atendimento péssimo, comida horrível, buffet bagunçado, desleixado. E caro pra cacete.

"Place was amazing, good place to rest after a day in Universal Studios. You get discount with your parking ticket."
Its Maky Bitch - 9.4
"Can't hold a candle to D-Land or Knott's Berry Farm in terms of rides or production values. Exception is the Harry Potter world which was very well done. Fast pass is spendy but a life saver"
