Preto West End in City of London, Westminster

Purchased via Too good to go, this was listed as £24 worth of food. It's just not honest.

I came to London for the first time to celebrate my birthday, which made it a very special occasion. Whenever I travel, I like to try out Brazilian churrascaria in search of good cuts of meat (something that’s not so common in Europe), and at Preto I had a truly wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, Cris welcomed me with such kindness and made me feel right at home. The buffet selection was great — especially the beans and pao de queijo — and the meats were fantastic, particularly the picanha, cupim, and coracao de galinha, which for Brazilians are almost sacred. Hahaha. The caipirinhas were delicious (I had two!), and the pudim for dessert was just as amazing. Everything was perfect. I absolutely recommend Preto and will definitely come back on my next visit to London. Actually, I suggest opening a branch in Malta!

Excellent quality food, meat and dishes very well seasoned. The service was impeccable, the staff were very smiling and pleasant. The sweets at the end surprised me. I don't live in London but every time I come, Preto is a must-stop.

First time visitor and first time eating at a Brazilian bbq Pro's: * The buffet choice was a lot bigger than I expected * The buffet dishes were clearly labelled (which is generally rare)!! - would espically recommend the bread * Staff constantly came to our tablet offering various meats Negatives: * Service charge automatically added to the bill (other restaurants do this too) * I thought overall the prices were a bit high - however the restaurant was in Central London so I expected this Yes I would return and overall I would recommend the restaurant

Lovely service, good food, great drinks! Will be back soon! Thank you for having me and my friend we really enjoyed!

Food was awful, under cooked meat rushed out as whoever was in charge was late adding meats to the grill to cater for the lunch time rush, meat tough I was only offered 3 different cuts in the 90min almost that we were there, margarita was shocking and expensive, beer was lukewarm and we were told passively aggressively by a hostess that we had to start eating as we had to vacate the table in 90min, I understand that as we had no booking but her demeanour was uncalled for…truth is the last review I posted was 3 years ago that have managed to get worse since then…we spent £100 between 2 of us no way worth it…I won’t be coming back and if you go stick to the buffet because the meat is horrendous

Buffet OK, but not everything is replenished. The meat is served extremely quickly, no time to finish one piece for another piece to arrive. And doesn't come back unless asked. We sell you cans of Coke for £3.70 with the purchase price on it (80p). Very uncommercial!

The salad bar is great. The meat quality was not great, in particular the red meat. They were very fatty and not chewable. Staff service is good.

The best food and friendly staffs and nice place

Really great staff that must be really strong because the meat they carry looks heavy and they always cake with a friendly smile! Brazilian style restaurant, so there is a salad bar for you to help yourself to, there are also stickers on the table- put your sticker to show the red side if you need a break, and the green side will mean the staff will keep coming and offering you whatever meat theyre taking around from the kitchen. It was all beautifully cooked and ranged from steak, to chicken hearts (obviously you can just decline what you like). Its my second time at this chain of restaurants and it's always fun for a party or group of friends getting together. It cost us about £50 each (obviously this would increase if you drink more/ ordered deserts) which i think is really good value for money. Make sure you go when you're really hungry, though!

We had a lovely meal here, food was great, lots of choice for the sides with some interesting dishes to try and the meat options were great, especially enjoyed the rump and the ribs. Cocktails were tasty with a nice variety. Servers were great, friendly and helpful, although the greeter on the door came across as a bit grumpy. All in all we had a lovely time.

Just stumbled upon the place with my Brazilian wife. She really enjoyed it. HAPPY WIFE HAPPY LIFE

So expensive and the meats were so bad and smelly….. NEVER AGAIN !

This place was an insult to all Brazilians and churrascerias everywhere. Was not worth the bathroom visit I had. Food was horrible. Selection was abysmal. I gave one star because no choice for no stars. Maybe it’s for tourists that don’t know better, but for those of us accustomed to a proper churrasceria, this place is a joke.

The seating is a bit cramped. The food was nice with a great variety. Some of the staff are grumpy as hell and should probably get a job as they're not happy clearly (come to your table, dump the meat available in front of you, and just look at you.. without telling you what it is, like I'm supposed to know!) All round, fairly decent.

Ieri sera io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo cenato in questo ristorante, per me era la prima volta che mangiavo brasiliano. Ci hanno portato tanti tipi di carne diversa, tutta ottima e finché non dicevi basta continuavano a portarla. Il locale è molto carino e i camerieri affabili. Davvero tutto buonissimo.

Great restaurant, perfect buffet

Absolutely everything was tasteless and meat very hard

I loved the restaurant experience 🍽️.

Veryy very very expensive for the food quality that it is…bad costumer service quite rude and me and my family left hungry because it was impossible to keep eating such tasteless boring food like no other rodizio house

We go there every time we go London 4 times a year. To be honest I don’t eat beef but I always check before hand if they have lamb option available which mostly they do. Good selection on the buffet as well. I think servers as in floor staff has to be little more attentive. Rest all good

The tables are a little too squashed for my liking, although this unfortunately is not uncommon in London. The food was pretty good, although there could have been more gluten free options with the buffet part. Overall a nice experience!

A great little find in the heart of Soho. Very interesting food and a great experience all round.

Enjoyable, yet somewhat expensive.

We were there for dinner and ordered Rodizio. First of all: Rarely have we experienced such kind and courteous service staff: we dropped a fork and a new one was brought straight away, you were allowed to ask lots of questions (and there were no “stupid” questions) and everyone was very accommodating and friendly. The food: Very tasty, the meat was well prepared, always hot (of course) and we were asked more than often what else we needed. Here's a small drawback: an overview/written overview of available meat dishes would have helped me a lot (as someone who doesn't have much meat expertise). Buffet was also very extensive and good - but you have to like it :-). But that should only be the smallest deduction. Drinks are (as is often the case in London) relatively expensive. Overall, a recommendation for a very nice evening. PS: No matter how full you are, try the dessert! It's worth it.

The worst experience never again

Hit and miss with the taste of the meat but other than that, I've got no quarrels! It's decent for the price

Delicious, great variety at salad bar.

When we missed our reservation in the sushi place in the neighbourhood, to celebrate our anniversary and Valentine’s Day, we decided to return to Preto, remembering our earlier positive experience, and invited by the offer of a twenty percent discount on showing theatre tickets. So, in preparation of Much Ado About Nothing, we had a wonderful and tasty experience in Preto Westend. Our compliments are much ado about a lot… of meat (and a few items from the additional buffet). There was a great variety of the most deliciously prepared meats and we were contently stuffed - estou cheio! The service was attentive and friendly. Our slightly unbalanced table was fixed for us even before we had the chance to ask for it. We will surely return for another celebration in the future, as Preto is worth every penny.

The meat was raw, I couldn’t eat any. So i went there and just ate starters. It was a bery bad experience, especially with the meat, which is the main reason i went there for. And the staff were friendly, but the staff who were serving the meat doesn’t speak english, and are not professional with cutting the meat. Also, the meat took long time to get served. I don’t recommend this restaurant at all. I tried it in Brasil, it was much better, you can’t even compare. My first and last time!

Excellent food , you walk in to a friendly atmosphere and are shown to your table, you then go and help yourself to all salads and dishes (huge selection) and go bk to your table where the staff will then bring a huge piece for skewered meat to your table, eg beef and will give you as much as u want cut fresh, this proceeds continusly with a new type of meat every few mins with just about every different meat , all just as good as the last, HIGHLY RECOMEND, if u are also lucky enough for it it be your birthday , I also received 2 free cocktails when my wife pre booked , couldn't think of anything I would have enjoyed more on my birthday, just google it yourself to see the vids, thanks Preto, Amazing, five stars all round

The experience was great, the place is excellent, very beautiful and the service is exceptional, I will come back again

Quiet environment and attentive staff.

Excellent Brazilian steakhouse. Wonderful service, great prices and a wide variety of dishes, as well as a perfect meat buffet. The waiter Giovana is to be congratulated; an incredible person.

Cozy space, friendly and efficient service. A great variety of menu that left me extremely satisfied.

Excelente. We went at this restaurant to have a Staff Christmas party. The palce is very good. Food was very tasty, big variety of food and meat. Love the atmosphere. All staff was very polite.

Even tho it was Saturday night, the food was great and hot. Great spot for soho and West end as well as Chinatown

Great variety, fresh meat and salad, lovely atmosphere, friendly staff!

Food was pretty good they came over with the meals constantly. The food from the buffet area was also reasonably good. Unfortunately some food from there though started to tase stale, I reckon some had been there awhile. Drinks were a good size and standard price for London. Service could be improved, slow to take drinks orders, and felt like it was hassle having an order taken. Staff member gave the I don’t want to be here energy, throwing down the colour cards and leaving. Was not asked at any point how was the food, drinks etc. Venue, was clean including toilets. Venue held capacity well. Overall would reattend, but the west end venue I think has the edge.

We had an amazing family dinner! Thank you.

Meat had no marinade at all chicken and pork tasted really bad beef had way to much fat sausage was lovley and the corn was to die 4. Salad bar was realy nice. really expensive. service was good.

The staff were generally kind and friendly, but our experience was completely ruined by the man serving the meat. He was unnecessarily rude to my girlfriend when she politely declined a slice of beef because it was too rare for her taste. His behaviour was unacceptable, making her feel uncomfortable to the point of almost crying and wanting to leave. For a meal costing £120, we expected much better treatment. Dining out should be a pleasant and enjoyable experience, not one where a guest feels humiliated or upset. Unfortunately, this incident overshadowed everything else, and we left deeply disappointed. This level of service is simply not acceptable, especially at such a premium price point.

Just enough for Korean tastes. They give you a lot of meat.

We passed by this restaurant by chance and here we are! Great reception, the staff is very friendly and attentive. We had a great time, the buffet was great! The concept of cards to say when you are taking a break from service is perfect! I only put positive points but I admit that it is still a little expensive.

It is not the Preto it used to be. Service very poor. They do not service the quantity of meat and selection as before. To serve you the meat , they go over you, which my top has been stained.

Fantastic experience, the food was very good and fresh, as well as abundant. The best thing is the room staff who serve you very well and are always willing to serve you more. We went for my mother's birthday, they helped us with a great dessert and a happy birthday. Fantastic!

La comida es buena para ilimitado. El personal es muy bueno. Luka es excelente en su trabajo, con una sonrisa, educado y muy amable, una razón por la que visitamos la tienda dos veces fue Luka. Luka gracias por todo 🇬🇷🇬🇷 AEK

The food is good for unlimited. The staff is very good. Luka is excellent at his job, with a smile, polite and very friendly, one reason we visited the shop twice was Luka. Luka thank you for everything 🇬🇷🇬🇷 AEK

As a Brazilian I think the food is nice and tastes like home. It is definitely expensive since don’t have that many options on the menu, but is a good place to go if you are super hungry and missing home or want to try Brazilian rodízio which is super common in Brazil. My only tip is: few staffs serving the meats dont know the names in Portuguese, which can be confuse. I advise to hire Brazilians!

Super kind staff and very good dinnes!!! Fantastic place for family or friends, love it!

Went today for dinner for 6 person that only one person serving the meat and also cooking when I complained about the service they said they had no staff unfortunately for me it was a very bad experience. I like to advice other people about the day they had no pork no chicken hearts and the famous steak by the time we got to my table was RAW, when a complaint to the manager, he told me he was not the manager very disappointed

Table of 5, stopped serving meat to us when they wanted, asked to remove the service charge from the bill, no questions asked, just ok no problem Worst Preto have ever went to! Buffet quality not the best too

Wonderful food, great service. I recommend it and intend to return.

Everything about this place is amazing. The food is incredible and we always leave feeling crazy full. The staff go above and beyond for the children making them have the best experience too. We go every year for my husbands birthday and it's just the best experience.

Nice food and location. the attendant Lucas is very helpful

Genuinely mine and my partners favorite place to eat in London. It's consistently good - The steak is to die for!

First time I went here and it was around November overall the food was pretty decent but the menu was somewhat a little confusing, perhaps maybe changing up the menu to make it more clear.

One of the best rodizio in London

Amazing food The meal of the 32.5 unlimited meat - was great, include beef, chicken and steak. We realy enjoy it... Also the team was realy nice

Tasty Brazilian food with good service and a very cozy atmosphere.

One of the best place,staf party with my colleagues ,so friendly staf,I really enjoyed Very nice food

I enjoyed this moment, the food was very good. I'm leaving this dinner defeated hahaha😂. I highly recommend.

Very nice and kind staff. The staff went out of their way to make you feel at home. Even if the buffet offering is not excellent, the meat is quite good. The price in line with competitors.

It was my first time here as I saw on Tik Tok amazing reviews, all the staff were so lovely and friendly. The manager was amazing I totally forgot to ask her name, they my made the birthday celebration one to remember. I would definitely recommend.

Lucas was an amazing server!! 5 stars ⭐️

I went to Preto for my birthday meal with my fiance, kids, and with a few of my friends the service was brilliant and the food was amazing how ever the gammon was really salty but apart from that everything else was really good. The food just keeps on coming until you put the "I'm full sign. I would differently recommend going.

I don't know how authentic this place is, but it was great. The veg buffet had loads, and the meat was really good with lots of variety.

What's not to like! All you can eat meat feast. Plus numerous side dishes and sauces. Fully recommended

Bad experience we were 4 adults 3 rodizio and I asked for buffer because I don't eat meat my husband shared 1 piece of the sausage. The girl at the reception, informed by the waiter, came to tell me that she couldn't share more without politeness, she almost made me hospitalize the piece that was in my mouth. I don't need this the difference was 5 euros I can pay. I was so humiliated that we never set foot in this place again.

Super well attended by the waiter Lucas and super good people

An absolute delight this gem is. Steaks cooked to perfection and wide variety of flavours. This gem cannot be missed if u love beef. The salad bar is a must try.

Overpriced! And poor choice of buffet items! We wanted to try the all you can eat restaurant. For the price the quality of food wasnt good! The service was not great they could have been more friendly and caring. There was only one young waiter in sight and he wasnt too friendly. The elder waiter was servicing meat. But it seemed as though they were being forced to work there. The lady manager wasnt smiley either. Not great ambience. Did not leave happy! Will not be coming back.

one of the best buffet you can enjoy in london.

My family and I were very satisfied with the service, the meat, some burnt and dry, normal for those who like it extra rare, others wonderful, succulent, just the way we loved it, the buffet was delicious, we'll be back soon, thank you, thank you

A BIG THANK YOU TO LUCAS ! Very friendly and good vibes ! We will coming back !

Top! If do want to sell your kidney to eat some proper meet in London, Preto is the right place for you

Over priced and poor choice of buffet items. Staff mostly fed up and miserable due to looking and acting over tired. Some meat items that come around were tough and over salted. 2 buffets inc meats and a bottle of wine nearly £100 due to the surprise service charge. Try it maybe earlier in the day but not past 2030hrs. Spoiled our last night in London somewhat. Try Viva Brazil chain for a better South American food experience.

Perfect service, thank you Maria Eduarda for the service and care for the Customers, Wonderful food, thank you for everything

The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, Maria Eduarda, a very friendly girl, I found the service excellent and I recommend it to anyone who wants to taste quality Brazilian cuisine.

Delicious food and excellent service! Note 10

I loved the service from Cris, very attentive and polite! 🫶🏼

Unfortunately, I recently had a very bad experience at this restaurant. The first thing was the food itself, I am brazilian and the so called “ brazilian “ food was extremely low quality. On top of that the service was terrible and the manager disrespectful. I ordered the rodízio ( all you can eat) and shared with my friend and they charged us twice and were very hostile once i told them. They did not let us know beforehand it was not allowed and were very very rude when attempting to charge us around 100 pounds for two plates with very poorly cooked food. A complete turist trap, save yourself some time and don’t even enter. The manager was a blond woman and I sure do hope she will not work there for much longer.

Wonderful!!! A piece of Brazil! I would live inside this restaurant!

Spectacular, fresh and quality food! A true Brazilian rotation in the middle of London!

Exceptional service! Talys notes mill!!!!! Victoria's isn't worth anything near here.

Talles is a great, attentive attendant! Artist

Hello everyone, I'm just stopping by to thank the manager Bruna and the waiter Tales for the wonderful service. Lunch was wonderful and the meat was unforgettable. Thank you and success!!!

Bruna's friendliness is something out of this world, thank you for the pleasant surprise and see you next time

Great service by Marcia, will definitely be back!

Pleasant atmosphere. The waitress Bruna was top notch, 5* service

Amazing food and servire especially thanks to Bruna!

This is a very good restaurant with all you can eat. The waiter was very friendly especially to our Brazilian friend.

We're served by Lucas. Really nice guy!

Thank you Bruna for you service

We come for dinner on a Wednesday, Bruna was lovely and she gave us an amazing service! I took my friends from Italy and we all enjoyed, it was a blast!

Lucas was amazing!!!! Will come back again and again

Absolutely delicious food, all the salad items were were all so fresh and sp were the other dishes. The meats was beautifully cooked and so delicious and that comes from a nest lover who doesn’t eat her meat pink. Second time visiting the restaurant and the next time I’m In London I’ll be paying it anther visit. Lovely and very friendly staff as well .

All in all very good! The attendant Lucas was very attentive and helpful.

I've been eating with my family. We arrived at 9, we were welcomed by a girl at the door, for how she was dressed I think she was the manager, she immediately told us that the kitchen close at 10, but in a way as like she were annoyed that at that time people are still come in the restaurant. We all opted for the menu option of 32.95, we were only served with small sausages, chicken, lamb and beef, all within 15 min, which we immediately filled up, but from the speed it seemed that they almost hunted us, in fact in less than an hour we were already out. At the end, two Coca Cola were added to the bill, (never ordered and never received so we asked to removed) and a glass of house wine, on the menu price is 7.50, on the account it cost 9. (of course I asked to changed it). After this bad adventure I asked to remove the service, since it is optional, also I don't feel like I can say I received a service from them, however at this request, the same girl who welcomed us, made a strange face, and almost annoyed, so I’m telling now her to don’t be surprised at these requests if you don't know how to give a service.

Great service and atmosphere, Lucas & Chris were really great! Thank you for a fantastic evening.
