There are so many options, and they are all so bad. Out of the 12 different types of meat they brought to our table, I'd say 4 were edible, and 2 were fine. For having to spend $100 bare minimum on the all-you-can-eat option, I would expect some of the meat to not look and taste like charcoal. Literally everything was overcooked except for some raw chicken that they gave us. The shrimp was the consistency of overcooked steak! I've never had shrimp that bad before! The salad bar had a lot of options, and they were all so subpar except for the beef stroganoff which was good. The macaroni noodles were so overcooked and mushy it was crazy. The cornbread was fine, but definitely also overcooked. Altogether it was so so mid it's crazy. Go to any asian buffet in Lincoln and the meat is going to be so much better and so much cheaper! I already typed out this whole review and my phone ran out of battery and died before I submitted it so I had to rewrite the whole thing! I would never rewrite it if this place wasn't actually bad! It's so bad. Trust me.

Our go-to birthday place for a decade. The food is exceptional and Eric runs a top-notch operation. Great to see his son, Matthew, learning the ropes and being a great server. Amazing place for celiacs and anyone with gluten issues - 90%+ of the food is gluten free and everything is well-labeled.

Actually the worst food i’ve ever experienced in a restaurant unfortunately. So sad because it was our anniversary dinner and the meat was inedibly dry and we were served raw chicken. No redeeming qualities the salad bar had no good options and overall bad vibes. Wanted to like this place but it was so sad :(

I gave it a 4 because it is pricey for me as a low income person. But it is a treat and wow you get to eat some great meat 🍖 and their pineapple 🍍 🤤 is really good also that is slow cooked. Good service, you do get what you paid for. Maybe even 5 stars to someone that is better off.

Recently for date night I told my husband we could go to Rodizio cuz I had a coupon. I had already researched online and they have a Salad bar/ Sides only option at a discounted price. Our server still looked at me sideways as to what I was doing there 😆. If you are unaware this place has "Gauchos" who bring various hunks of meat on a giant spit repeatedly to your table until you beg for Mercy! I did pretty great at digging through the salad bar/ hot buffet offerings and only ended up with one meat infused dish on my plate by accident (Farfalle Salad). He Loved the little things like the Quail eggs, Horseradish sauce and Chimichurri for your meat, etc. I was surprised how much I liked the Seafood and Brazilian Potato salads. The Coconut Pineapple Coleslaw was easily my favorite and I had a couple of helpings. Tableside Bananas and Polenta were also super yummy. I am so picky when it comes to Banana bread and this one was great! He had So Much Meat! Said the Tri-Tip was his favorite! Beef, Chicken, Pork, Grilled Pineapple. Loved his Cabernet. I ordered the popular Caipirinha Cocktail to finish. Hard to describe. Sugar cane liquor and limes. It was ridiculously delicious. They brought out warm towels at the end to deal with the meat sweats 🥵. This is a place you definitely go for the experience. My husband said he for sure ate his 40 bucks worth. Mine was $26. Did I leave full? Yes. 26 bucks worth? Not so much. Would we go again if invited? Probably. *All Gauchos pics were taken with prior consent 🙂.

Very good salad bar. A large selection of meats brought to your table. Some of the meats were a bit dry. Some were great. Loved the grilled pineapple.

Fabulous place. Atmosphere is beautiful, our server was fantastic and the food! You must be hungry before going. The food was so good. From the salad bar to the ham and beef and pineapple, it was so good. I ordered a Piña Colada and it was the best I’ve ever had! Very easy to over eat but worth it!
