Welcome to Rio’s BBQ & Rodizio Restaurant! Your Rodizio experience begins with a visit to their gourmet buffet, featuring fresh vegetables, salads, Brazilian cheese bread, cured meats, continental cheeses and hot dishes, including their traditional “Feijoada” (bean stew with meat).
Once you are ready for the Brazilian barbecue (churrasco), you control the service with a small double-sided disc placed on your table. The green side signals the Chefs to bring out skewers of sizzling meats one by one, while the red side indicates you have finished. There is a sumptuous selection of meats and the beauty is you can enjoy them all at one set price (Some offerings may change).

5 months agoI'm Brazilian, me and my friends found this place right next to the hotel we booked on June, so we decided to get to know the place! They have a variety of food, several waiters to serve you, meat rodízio :), we Brazilians like it a lot. If you go to Douglas and you would like to try Brazilian food, that's the place to go. The staff are great, polite and always available, fresh food, the place is comfortable and clean.

6 months agoWe prebooked this restaurant using Google maps. This restaurant is a hidden gem as you walk underneath the main building to the basement area where this restaurant is stylishly decorated and was full. This Brazilian restaurant serves up to 14 meats on skewers and you can eat at your own pace. The Buffet area has a great selection of additional sides and main dishes. This was a very popular place with families and groups of people definately recommend booking in advance. Staff were helpful, friendly and professional. Overall great place to eat.

5 months agoIf you're a Brazilian who's homesick for food, you'll be well served. The meat is delicious, the buffet has a nice range of typical Brazilian food (from coxinhas to farofa and feijoada), and the staff is very attentive. Some specific roasts could surely be improved (like chicken hearts, which were over roasted and thus dry), no deal breaker though. All in all, definitely recommend.

6 months agoIt was probably my third visit here, and yet again I was not disappointed. Rodizio is Portuguese for rotation - the waiters bring freshly cooked meat to the table and they are carved from large skewers onto your plate - we were served chicken, pork, lamb and beef, as well as pineapple and cinnamon. There is also a large salad bar, with a choice of dressings and a range of hot courses. All very delicious and well worth a visit.

a year agoGood quality welcome and food. Decor and ambience modern, clean, welcoming and Brazilian. Salad, starters and sides buffet a healthy mix of some British standards (e.g. potato salad, corn on the cob) but amid the chef's special preparations of good flavour and variety. Main provision is then a supply of a wide range of freshly cooked and flavoured meats, typed at the end with warm, sweet cinnamon covered pineapple. An excellent experience week with a visit. I should say that fish and vegetarian options are available, not just the steak and chicken which is otherwise core to their menu.
