“ Truly a local gem! The food and service are absolutely top notch, and the new renovation is beautiful. We love the rodizio and the buffet selection is impressive. Even simple dishes like the chicken and cucumber salads are so flavorful. But the staff really make the experience - everyone is so kind and welcoming. They clearly work very hard to make sure everyone has an amazing experience and won't let you leave hungry. Thank you all! ”

“ Extremely kind and attentive staff. Google accidentally directed us to the wrong restaurant with a similar name, but the manager was kind enough to fit us in even on a Friday! The servers are all incredibly kind and attentive, and elevated the experience greatly. That is not even mentioning the food. Everything from the meats, to the salad bar, to the hot sides were all absolutely delicious. Everything tasted wonderfully fresh and left me wanting more even if my stomach could barely take it. Absolutely perfect for a celebration or a date night. Will one hundred percent be returning. ”

“ I recently attended a private event at Ipanema Grille, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience! There was a large group of over 50 people and despite the challenge, our ONE server, Casey, went above and beyond. She was incredibly attentive, efficient, and made sure everyone was taken care of with a smile! The food was incredible and the newly renovated restaurant is absolutely beautiful and such a warm and inviting atmosphere. Douglas is a hands-on owner who truly cares! Highly recommend! ”
“ First time visiting. Let's get straight to it. Food: A Service: A Ambience: A From the reservation phone call onward was very professional. I spoke with Douglas. Awesome person. Every staff member took the time to explain everything. The Hot/cold buffet was excellent. Some reviews I read said it was small. It's smaller because this is a steak house remember. The buffet is well layed out with great choices. Cheeses, breads, vegetables..Excellent. Alcohol Adult drinks were excellent. Recommend the Passion Fruit Caipirinha and Raspberry Caipirinha. (They did not skimp on the rum) Definitely will be visiting again. ”
“ We had dinner here for Mother's day and everything was perfect. We were greeted and seated almost immediately and our server was over to get us started within a minute or two. We got our drinks quickly and the caipirinha was one of the best I've tasted. The staff work as a team and this means prompt attention and service but without being annoying. If anybody noticed dirty plates or empty glasses, they came over to address our needs whether they were "our" server or not. It was really a unique experience. And then there's the food. Everything was so tender and perfectly cooked. A very wide assortment of meat was presented and all of it was melt in your mouth, explosion of flavor, to die for. The buffet was fresh, diverse, and delicious. I can not recommend this place enough!! ”
“ I really enjoyed our dinner in Ipanema Grille, and, as a Brazilian, I can say that it made me feel a little bit at home again. I can't wait to go back there! ”
