"When we finally received some attention, it took a long time for the staff to bring around the meat. The selections offered were quite repetitive – mostly sausage, tri-tip, bacon-wrapped filet mignon, and garlic beef. We found ourselves having to request lamb, chicken, and other cuts that were listed on the menu but were not being offered. By the time we saw picanha, we were already full and ready to leave, having spent about an hour and a half there.
Additionally, the 'Market Bar' was rather underwhelming compared to other Brazilian steakhouses we've visited, offering limited choices. While I understand that many people come for the meat, a well-rounded Brazilian experience is usually appreciated.
We had made our reservation specifically for a birthday celebration, but we were never asked if we were celebrating anything. I later learned that the restaurant offers complimentary dessert for special occasions, as I overheard a waitress at the neighboring table asking her guests if they wanted dessert, casually mentioning that she could provide it for free since they were celebrating an anniversary. The waitress who brought our check didn’t ask about our celebration either, but managed to inquire at the table next to us, informing them about the free dessert for the birthday girl.
I want to emphasize that we are easy-going diners and usually leave generous tips, but due to the poor service we experienced, we felt unable to tip well. It’s unfortunate, but we certainly won’t be returning to this establishment."
