Welcome to Rio’s BBQ & Rodizio Restaurant! Your Rodizio experience begins with a visit to our gourmet buffet, featuring fresh vegetables, salads, Brazilian cheese bread, cured meats, continental cheeses and hot dishes, including our 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).

6 months 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.

4 months agoExcellent service and great food. Went in quite early and on my own as I'm visiting on work but the staff were polite and attentive. Lots of choice and I like you can choose between a full or half menu which most Brazilian places don't let you. Buffet had nice options too both with the hot and cold offerings.

a week agoGroup of 5 of us went on 24/9/22 Staff was friendly upon arrival. The buffet section was awful items such as the bartered fish were cold for some reason then they came round with different meats the sausage was full of grizzle the lamb was undercooked the chilli beef & the garlic beef was like old rubber & the gammon was so undercooked it was inedible. the chicken was crispy on outside & red in middle in other words it had been cooked too quickly. We brought all these points up to the waiter however no management or chefs came out to see us to attempt to come up with a solution instead we was just given dirty looks when leaving. we paid over £200 for basically a few items off the buffet due to the meats being so poorly cooked it’s a shame as we was all looking forward to this place.

4 months agoVery disappointed. We could only choose a menu option based on the whole table rather than individually and the service was incredibly slow and inconsistent. They start off by trying to fill you with garlic bread and sausage. The better cuts of meat are last and once they’d been through the selection the service stopped as if it was a one time only option for each. A rodizio restaurant is supposed to keep serving until you turn the card. Avoid.
