Loved the salad bar as always esp the mushrooms and apple salad ;) The meat is always soo very good esp their house special, the lamb and the beef ribs-those are my faves! The bananas are what gets me full way too fast! The potatoes this time was really fresh and mashed well! We just wish we could eat more... More

For years I have wondered about this concept. Massive amounts of meat, just meat and nothing but meat. Served endlessly by dudes dressed in gaucho pants and carving said meat product off a sword onto your plate. Sounded, well... boring. Never thought I would eat here, but sometimes other folks make decisions for you. This is how the Suz and... More

I am a Brazilian myself and very used to the real deal when comes down to "churrascarias" or the brazilian steakhouses in USA. I would say this one has a good service, all waiters are very nice however when comes down to meat selection I was disappointed. The salad bar was ok (lack some sea food - one may think..WHAT?...

Took our family here for Easter dinner, and it was very good. The service is great. They are quick to bring the meats when you switch your card to green, and the little side dishes were always replinished quickly. I would have liked more sauces to put on the meats--plain meat doesn't really appeal to me. My biggest disappointment was... More

The husband and I went for an early dinner at Estancia Churrascaria. I'm so glad we tried it. The food was exceptional and the staff top notch. I can't wait til we can go back.

Superior in every respect. We went for our 12th anniversary dinner to a wonderfully elegant setting, quiet, and very well appointed. The wait staff was polite, completely knowledgeable, and made us feel very welcome. The salad bar could suffice for a full meal, with roughly 20 selections. It was all you dared to eat, and everything I selected was delicious.... More

You definitely get what you pay for here - a wonderful selection of delicious cuts cooked to perfection. Nice salad bar and sides but honestly didn't spend much time on them. I enjoyed the service which was professional but not pushy. Great experience for meat lovers

Estancia is a great churrascaria if you're looking for the authentic rodízio style Brazilian churrascaria. It rivals the more well known Fogo do chão that you can find in major US and Brazil cities. The staff is great and the cuts of meat are prepared very well. The salad bar is also well done. The owner is there most days... More
