Steakhouse restaurants in Brazil

  1. Churrascaria Triângulo

    True, the ambience here is quite lacking – it’s a hotel restaurant – but if you’re famished and in the mood for meat, you are sure to get your fill here. The rodízio is sort of an all-you-can-eat meat buffet: waiters pass by your table with long skewers of fresh-grilled meats that you can sample as long as your stomach and chair hold up. It also includes all the self-serve side dishes you like, as if you’ll have room.

    Leite

    One of the oldest restaurants in the country, this famous traditional lunch place was opened in 1882. Though modernized these days and void of much historical air, it remains a power-lunch favorite of politicos and business-people. Go for the excellent Pernambuco shrimp in coconut sauce.

    Mingus

    An excellent spot to drop some extra reais for a stylish meal of contemporary Brazilian cuisine. From pan-roasted wild boar to fig-stuffed quail to whiting in peppermint pesto, there’s something for everyone, served amid larger-than-life B&W photos of jazz greats.

    Restaurante La Marea

    Good two-level grill house on Iracema's 'restaurant corner', with meat cooked over red-hot coals. They'll grill the picanha (Brazil's favorite cut of beef comes from the cow's rump and is eaten pinkish, salty and fresh from the grill) at your table.
