About Pampas Grill - steak house in Inglewood, California

Brazilian food is served buffet style & by the pound at this big, family-friendly restaurant.

Customer Review Summary

Pampas Grill is praised as the best casual Brazilian churrasco spot in LA, offering a sensational assortment of meats. The sirloin cap is noted for its rich flavor, while the garlic beef and spicy chicken are also highly recommended. Sides like garlic rice and garlic noodles are favorites, and the pricing is considered reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. The restaurant can get crowded at dinner, but it has ample seating and parking, with live music on certain nights. While the atmosphere is warm and the staff attentive, some reviewers express disappointment about the lack of clarity regarding the food being charged by weight, leading to unexpected high bills. Vegetarian options are available but may be limited, and while some dishes were noted as cold, the meats received consistent praise. Overall, Pampas Grill is highly recommended, especially for meat lovers.

The best casual Brazilian churrasco spot in LA! The assortment of meats is sensational. The sirloin cap has a rich beef flavor, and the fat on the edges gets perfectly crisp. The garlic beef is juicy and full flavored, and the spicy chicken really holds its own with the beef dishes with a great spice level and flavor. There’s no shortage of sides; my favorites are the garlic rice and garlic noodles. The plate pictured cost $15, which I find to be a pretty great deal for the quantity and quality of the food. There’s a line at dinner time; it moves, but a little slowly. Plenty of seating and parking though, and there was live music the evening I went.

Can't recommend enough, must try for the meat lovers. Great prices, plenty of parking, and very clean. They have live music on certain nights. Watched a couple Dodgers games during the World Series. 👍

Great food, self service. Good selection for starters and mains. Food charge by weight of portion.

There was no indication that the food was charged by weight...no one in my party informed me and I assumed this was like a normal buffet which charged a set price. Was shocked when my plate of food was over 50 dollars. I would have been much more conservative had I known. The beet salad, veggie rice and beans and the sausage were all good. But...50 dollars worth of good? No. I will likely never return and certainly warn everyone I know about patronizing this place.

I came here with other people, all of whom eat meat. It has a nice selection of both neat and non neat items,but is definitely geared to meat eaters. Food stars rating by the meat eaters. As a vegetarian, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of salads, rice, potatoes, pasta, fruit, and veg available. But there is no main vegetarian meal protein / option. It's all buffet style, serve yourself. There's no signage to explain that it's cheaper to make a sides plate and a meat plate separately. Hence the stars off service. Despite my friend giving this place 4/5 food stars, he suggested we come again soon.

So the food is amazing as everyone might say but I did notice the plantains and yucca were cold when I ate them. That's not usually the case. Also the bread balls seemed smashed and not fresh. It just have just been an off day .... But otherwise the meats were amazing.

I love this place! The food is delicious. Sometimes they have live music at dinner time. Very authentic. You can easily find vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. I highly recommend visiting Pampas Grill.
