Churrascaria restaurants in Brazil

  1. A

    Porcão Rio’s

    Set in the Parque do Flamengo with a stunning view of Pão de Açúcar, Porcão Rio’s is consistently ranked by restaurant critics as the city’s best churrascaria. Whether you believe the hype – or simply come for the view – you’re in for an eating extravaganza. Arrive early, both to score a good table and to see the view before sunset.

    Carretão

    It's all about the meat at this decent but inexpensive churrascaria. With several branches throughout the city, including an Ipanema Carretão, this popular chain serves up consistently good cuts – and heaps of them. There's a small salad bar, and you can order sides from the menu at no added charge.

    Plataforma

    This well-known churrascaria still draws a garrulous mix of politicians, artists and tourists. Dark, mellow woods in the dining room match the tones of the roast meats traveling from table to table. Also in this complex is the Plataforma Show – the over-the-top touristy Carnaval spectacle (headdresses, sequins and lots of skin).

    Churrascaria Majórica

    A true gaúcho (person from Rio Grande do Sul) would chuckle at the kitschy cowboy accoutrements inside this restaurant. He'd shut his trap, however, once his plate of steak arrived. Meat is very serious business at Majórica; if you're seeking an authentic churrascaria experience, look no further.

    Espaço Brasa Leblon

    One of Rio's top churrascarias, Espaço Brasa features nearly 30 different types of meat as well as sushi, seafood and salads. The beautifully presented all-you-can-eat buffet is set in a dining room with tall ceilings and elegant table settings.
