Cafe Mineiro Brazilian Steakhouse

I came with a friend's after a long day at a convention. The food was average to pretty good. The pineapple was awesome and is great for cleansing the palette between meats. The top sirloin, bacon wrapped steak and garlic steak were pretty good. I didn't really like the other meats. I didn't eat much at the buffet but the teriyaki wings were okay as was the cod fish.The service was very good. Our server was extremely friendly and treated us very well. The meat comes around at a good pace.The place was nice. There was a good amount of people there but I didn't feel too crowded.

Unfortunately, this was just overall a terrible experience for our family.1) Service was just terrible, with servers knocking off a silverware from our table without picking it up or apologizing, another dropped one of the plastic straws from our table, and, in a table across from us, a server was sweeping the floor right behind a customer, making him squeeze himself and have to move forward, again, the server didn't even notice;2) they have a surcharge for any wasted food (11 dollars per pound), but, while this is defensible and understandable, but several things need to be considered for this to work: -the meat comes with a part that is pure fat, most people don't eat this part (especially children), thus being charged for that seems to defeat the purpose (instead of educating your client you make them feel you're taking advantage of them),-some of the meat that they serve you was cut wrong (way too thick), or not as you asked (asked for medium rare and it was well-done), I didn't eat and even told the server that I wanted it less cooked but he put it in my plate anyway;-you don't get to see how they weighed what you "wasted" and you'll have to trust them. We were avoiding eating more because we didn't feel comfortable after realizing where this was going, We spoke with the server (Neto, was his name) who started avoiding us after we complained , my wife even spoke with the manager, who agreed that it wasn't fair, apologized, but dis nothing, saying it was "the house's policy ".Definitely an experience not to be repeated. Two adults and two kids and we spent almost 40 dollars on the "wasted food" additional, adding up to 180 for a buffet...was a tad much.

After a long day exploring the vibrant streets of Orlando, a hearty dinner was just what I needed, and this all-you-can-eat steakhouse delivered in every way! Having visited last year, I couldn't resist stopping by again, and I'm so glad I did. This restaurant offers one of the finest Brazilian dining experiences I've ever encountered.Their Full Rodizio is a must-try--an all-you-can-eat buffet paired with up to 12 cuts of meat served tableside. The servers keep the flavorful selections coming, from tender picanha to juicy ribs. Pro tip: Don't fill up at the salad bar! While everything looks tempting, you'll want to save room for the endless parade of meats.I was slightly disappointed this time, though, as they no longer serve their smashed potatoes--an absolute classic pairing with steak. I hope they bring them back soon! If you're a fan of spice, be sure to ask your server for their homemade hot sauce. It's an absolute must.To make the evening even more memorable, they offer live music by a violinist who is simply phenomenal. For a true Brazilian touch, I ordered a Guaraná, a traditional soft drink, and it hit the spot. And to end the night, don't miss their sugar-coated pineapple--it's the perfect sweet finish to an incredible meal.If you're in Orlando, this spot is a must-visit for an authentic and unforgettable Brazilian steakhouse experience!

Made reservations and seated immediately. Our server was super friendly and attentive. I just did the all you can eat salad & hot stations, which included sirloin, sausage, and chicken for $23. He did the full rodizio experience for $39. Everything was flavored and cooked to perfection. Had to get a side of the pineapple with cinnamon. This place is worth every penny.

The rodizio was great--plenty of delicious, well-seasoned meats cooked just right, and they kept them coming at the perfect pace. The sides were fresh and tasty, and the service was friendly and attentive without being overwhelming. The whole experience was solid, but I really wish they had pão de queijo. Other than that, I'd definitely go back.

Great place to eat, especially for groups and meat lovers. Service is great as well. The salad bar is fresh. The steak options are incredible as you would expect at a reasonable price. There is also a lot of parking available.

Food is the best!Service great!Ambiance like home!Everything was very nice!I visit this restaurant for more 16 years!I loved it!

Our server Taty was wonderful and ever so helpful. We will definitely be back when visiting Florida again in the future.

This must be the most awful meal I've ever paid for. The meat is the lowest walmart quality and it isn't cooked properly, THEY BOIL THE MEAT, yes!!!!! They do!!!!! They boil the meat, the texture and the smell can't be denied. It is simply disgusting.

Food was delicious and authentic. The servers were very friendly and courteous, especially our server Tati!
