Terra Brazil in Watford

Avoid at all cost! Meat so overcooked you would have been better off paying a fraction for a local kebab than £29 for a set menus of so called freshly BBQ Brazilian meat. Meat not marinated nor spiced in any way - I have been to Brazil and this is an insult on Brazilian meat…side dishes offered on a sort of buffet table also over cooked. Salads plentiful but not much flavour. To add insult, one and the same song in the music system stuck and repeating during the hour plus I was there…

Francisco, thank you very much for your affection and empathy, a big hug from Brazil. Wilson and Carlos.

Went here with friends, really looking forward to the 14 different meats advertised on the website. However when we arrived the team in the restaurant didn't understand a word we said and we had to use Google translate to communicate. We all ordered the full rodrigo which is buffet plus all the meats. The buffet was below average and not very good except the beef in Blackbean. The meat was delicious however only 8 of the 14 meats was avaliable. There was noone to complain about this to as noone spoke any English. I'm indecisive if I'd come here again as I'm not sure it's worth the £30 charged, bearing in mind that it's £20 for the buffet that was very poor.

Extremely upset with this service. We CLEARLY specified over the PHONE and through the online order that I am allergic to milk. The lady on the phone was extremely rude from the beginning. What a sad attitude from a nonprofessional worker at a place that has everything to be good. They have then proceeded to send a the Açai with powdered milk, which you can easily check on the package if you don’t know. The açai was fully covered in powdered milk and it had to be thrown out. This is not my first bad experience with this restaurant, I’ve also had another pretty bad experience when I dined in the restaurant. However, it was never serious like now that they were completely CARELESS with my allergy and on top of that thought that it was okay to be rude about it. And even tried to blame it on us by saying that we didn’t add it to the order. Happy to provide proofs. Sad behaviour.

Very good food, especially for meat lovers. The only thing that could use an improvement was the server of the meats. It would be really good if they could provide information and details of what they were serving us. Thus, the customers would not only consciously know what they are eating but also better appreciate it.

Food was very average, not worth £30. The meats were nice but the buffet was bland and limited

Gave me the worst food poisoning I've ever had in my life, the meat was good but the buffet food definitely made me ill the service left a lot to be desired as well. I asked to be add a tip to the card reader as had no cash at the end and she automatically assumed I wanted to take off the service charge. Maybe listen to what the customer is saying and not jump to conclusions. This just made the experience even more awkward and didn't feel I'd be coming back also the best meat options came around very rarely there is only so much rump I can have anyway there are better Brazilian and Argentinian restaurants around

We came for my brother's surprise birthday and the staff were so lovely and accommodating. Everyone in the family eats something different so there was something for everyone. They really did go all out to make it a memorable birthday for him.

I recently dined at The Grill and wanted to commend Adam, our waiter, for his exceptional service. He was extremely polite, welcoming, and attentive, answering all our questions and keeping us informed about the status of our orders. Adam is truly a lovely staff member and an asset to your establishment. If I could, I would rate his service 10 out of 5, as 5 simply isn’t enough to reflect his excellence. Additionally, I would like to acknowledge the chef, who was also very nice and polite. However, I must mention that the quality of the beef was disappointing. It seemed aged and chewy, more like a grade 3 or 4 rather than the high quality expected. I would recommend focusing on the salads, which were much better, especially the meat stew with pieces, which was superior to the actual grill options. Only one type of meat met the expected standards, while the rest were of poor quality despite the presentation.

Wonderful restaurant, delicious food and excellent service!! I highly recommend it and I will definitely be back again!!

Wonderful food, great service, everything was very good. Very good barbecue

Service was excellent but not much variety for a typical rodízio, which took a long time to be served. No pork sausage, no cupim, the picanha was over cooked. At £30 a head I would expect a full good quality rodízio. When you go to a steakhouse and your favourite thing was the pineapple, you know there’s something wrong

Food was great and the service even better , our waitress Lauren went above and beyond to make sure our experience was nothing short of outstanding. Definitely recommend.

Very disappointed. Only one man going round with skewer who is serving the whole restraunt. Meat not exciting at all. Poor service, dont remove plates, only ask if you want drinks or desserts. Have the cheek charge £30 per adult. Much better ones out there. This has to be the worst. Poor buffet selection too.

Very nice and delicious food recommended 100%

I went to this amazing restaurant terra brazil in watford I was received by an amazing people who was the manager Telma and the all team James and junho they all fantastic and amazing food no words for the nice dinner I had in this place...

Terrible service, I booked a table through the website, when I arrived at the place they said there was no table. First and last time 👎🏻

The food was incredible, the lamb and picanha were very good, the service was quick and the girl who works there, Lauren, was happy to serve us. I came with my family and was very impressed. I'll be back!

Great place, great choice of meat and side dishes. Not halal but descent vegetarian options. Too bad there’s no grilled fish.

Excellent service Excellent food The staff are very friendly

Very good place and food, we were served by Mr. Francisco, excellent service! We highly recommend it!

Biggest pro: This place is all halal. I’ll be honest though, this was a slightly underwhelming experience. We went at a time when it was sightly emptier (a Friday at 8pm), so the overall vibes and ambiance was quite dead/quiet. The food, however, is my main area of commentary. The way it works is that you get up and choose your sides from a buffet-styled variety, and then sit at the table where different meats are served to you. The meat was nice, but the way it’s cut for each person - sometimes you have nothing but crust and fat, whilst another person will have the good cuts of internal rare steaks. It should be more evenly spread and distributed, so that everyone is receiving the prime pieces/cuts. Some cuts were drier and blander than others. For example, for me, the chicken sausage was all fat and no flavour. The garlic steak was the nicest. The chicken was nice and juicy, but slightly sub-par. When it came to customer service, when we inquired as to what cut of meat we were being served, we were answered with “beef” 😂😂. It would be great if some information came with what we were given, like a simple: “this is rump steak”. Overall, the price wasn’t worth it for me personally, and I don’t think I’d come here again unless it was for a worthwhile occasion. But I’d recommend it if you’re somebody who eats a lot and enjoys variety - you would then get your money’s worth here.

One of the worst Brazilian steak i have had, i have had preto and touro steakhouse and those are far better than whatever terrabrazil is serving in the name of 'steak'. The 2 women at the bar who were serving was rude and unprofessional, took 20 minutes just to get us some tap water. The '10% service charge' is not justified for this quality of staff. Also they keep on serving chicken wings and chicken bites more than beef steak and they only serve 1 type of beef. Better to try preto steakhouse or touro steakhouse for £30 rather than this. #worstever

We really enjoyed the food and the service. Good choice of grilled meat. We will definitely come back.

The worst experience we ever had. The meat is cooked twice at least besides some of them are off already. We had to go to another restaurant to save our day. Adding to that, the waiter doesn't even know what kind of meat he's serving. Don't waste your money and tummy in this rubbish one.

My partner and I went here last night and now we have food poisoning. Did taste good but feel awful now.

Outstanding food, service a little slow and could do with a bit of decorating..but the food.. oh my.. the food is soo good! 💯

Excellent food, very pleasant atmosphere and exceptional service. I felt like I was in Brazil. Even though I arrived late, the buffet was full and the food remained hot. Note 10.

Great food, fantastic concept, everything was on point,

Super yummy Super clean Super service Super delish🥰🥸🥳😘😋 I would go again& again

Sadly never got to book as a Brazilian Rodicio without pork (chorizo, pork cuts, etc.) isn't worth my time. Sadly it's halal, which is fine, but you've lost my custom as a result of not serving staple Brazilian dishes. No authenticity.

Excellent food, tasty Brazilian BBQ and very lovely friendly staffs! Nice choice if you're looking for an authentic Brazilian food. Picanha, Maminha, Fraldinha are available among the Brazilian cuts :)

Worst service The tall thin black girl was sooooooooooo ruddeee ill never come again She is rude disrespectful and forced me to pay table service which i never paid before She is so stupid Ill never go terra brazil unless they fire her

What a shame. This used to be such a good restaurant. Took my family for a meal out and what a disappointment. The two waiters at the bar are not bothered to serve customers. Prefer to sit on their phones instead of serving customers. Waited 1hour until drinks were served. Most of us had finished our food by the time they brought the drinks over. When i went to ask for the drinks at after 45 minutes, the female waiter started swearing saying its the other waiters job to do the drinks? What kind of attitude is this to have infront of a customer? Used to love coming here but after todays experience it was definitely the last time ill come.

Great first experience! But today the food is cold and poorly received by the servers.

Not even 1 star this place deserve.... the place was empty just before 0200 pm and we paid £29.99 per head....Braziliam .lbeans was very watering , Rodizio was uncooked and not fresh....meats came in very dark not overcooked but been set in there for days...sausage came pink...the same person that was serving the table was the same preparing the rodizio...horrible and we left very unsatisfied and aggravated Never ever

It was the 3rd time we turn up for a family meal, but I have to say it was certainly the last one. Buffet very poor in quality and also in diversity, certainly not value for the money we were asked in the end. Our 2 girls wanted some bread and butter but the bread available was hard as rock, impossible to be used. We asked the waitress if they could do 2 portions of fried chips for the kids and the reply was Faulty Towers style, she - “you know, it’s Friday, chef don’t have any potatos- “ we certainly were surprised at arrival that only 3 tables were occupied, on a Friday night, now we understand the reason why. To finish in style, after waiting and waiting, we had to stand up and go to the counter to pay our bill Please avoid.

I do not recommend this restaurant. Terrible! The food looked old on the buffet. They didn't even replace the rice, which was the staple, and I didn't have the courage to eat the beans because they already smelled sour. The meat, when it wasn't super raw, was burnt "maybe it was well done" I spent almost 80 pounds for a horrible experience.

My partner and I have been coming here since it opened in 2018. The staff are friendly and quick, making you feel right at home. The place is all about great grilled meats served right at your table, plus tasty sides that give you a real taste of Brazil. Terra Brazil is perfect for a chill and delicious dinner out. If you're after authentic Brazilian food and a good time, Terra Brazil's is the place. 10/10 recommended!

Absolutely terrific service props to Francisco for the 10/10 service will defo be coming back

Great food. Loved the meats and good selection of salads etc available. I would recommend the lime juice for beverages as it was delicious and a great palette cleanser between meats.

This churruscaria is amazing. We went on a Friday and it was surprisingly quiet, but even so they served all the varieties of meat. All of the meats were great quality alongside the buffet. The staff were very friendly, and the music and atmosphere of the restaurant was lovely. Highly recommend, will be back!

Delicious food and really friendly service. We will be back!!

Took my 15 year old son for his birthday. We were a table of 8. Fantastic experience. Excellent value for money. Fresh delicious food. Staff Constantly checking if every thing was ok. Live music as it was a Friday evening. Will definitely go again and tell friends about it. Such a lovely restaurant, would highly recommend.

Worse food ever waste of money. Should have gone to McDonald's instead.

Not going to lie, this was embarrassing, i brought some business clients there and the hype was so much, the more we were looking forward to it the more disappointing and unpleasant it was, would not highly recommend, #still waiting for my mashed potatoes

I came here with my friend to open my fast. Never have I felt like royalty and so well looked after. Everything was tasty and the meat cooked to my liking every time. This is by far my fav resturant! Update i have been here the most times out of any restaurant in watford. The atmosphere, the welcome, the fact they recognise me everytime and treat me like an old friend! Absolutely love it here

Food was really nice. Not a lot of options or range of Brazilian tastes but it was ok. One of the waitresses that served us had the most foul attitude. Charged us incorrectly, couldn’t work out the bills and was overall very rude and confused. We sat there for a really long time with our finished plates. Drinks also took a really long time to come, even thought the restaurant was quiet. The atmosphere was too bright and not very friendly.

Ayuton and Francisco were very attentive to our requests. They made sure that all of our needs were met. The place has a really wonderful and rather welcoming vibe. Thank you for being so accomodating guys!

Relaxing environment. Nice service, friendly Staff, Francisco was very helpful and smiling.

For less than £30, you eat delicious meat and the buffet is very healthy too. Francisco was awesome.

The place was very homely the food was amazing and our server Francisco was very friendly best Brazilian buffet I’ve had in london

Friendly staff and amazing food Went with friends and we all really enjoyed Will defo be back :)

This was the second time I went with my wife, the meat is outstanding and the selection at the buffet massive. They’re all very friendly and accommodating. Great place

Pork belly on the menu Cross contamination

This was my 2nd time here with family, great food, great lovely staff.

Not very tasty food, didn’t look fresh. The meat was taking very long to come and it was very hard. Also very disappointed with the staff, didn’t feel like we where in a Brazilian Restaurant at all, lots of work need to be done on the food, specially the meat, also the Brazilian atmosphere and customer service, not very welcoming. I do not recommend .

Friday 5th, January, I visited Terra Brazil Rodizio with my son, it was our first time visiting this restaurant and I must say, we were pleasantly surprised. We were greeted with a warm welcome by the lovely Idy (I believe she's the boss) Idy was very attentive and made sure we were happy with our food and service. Our food server was generous with the cuts of meat and came around to our table fairly quickly. The waiter who made and served my cocktails was very polite & professional and made a great caipirinha and margarita. There was a good array of fresh salads and other foods at the buffet cart. The atmosphere was good and felt homely and the staff were very willing to accommodate.

Food is stunning here, unbelievable flavour, service and value for money, best brazillian steak house visit in the UK so far. Gutted we don't live near and only visiting for a night

Delicious. Cozy. And very hospitable. Absolutely love it.

Use to be a lot better,they use to come constantly with different kind of meat, not only 2 3 types and keep repeating..not recommended, better you go Buffet in watford instead of going to them .

Very expensive menu on weekends and bad quality dishes.

15th December had lunch buffet here and what can I say everything was mouthwatering! Food was served fast and fresh with steam coming off it. Flavours and flavourings were amazing! All halal and great value for money. Definitely will be back. Buffet and meat

Great halal all you can eat Brazilian food, they keep bringing you barbecued meat as much as you want and all you can eat sides

Lovely Brazilian restaurant. Meat was delicious!

What a delightful and cozy place! I instantly felt right at home. But let me tell you, the real highlight was the food. Brazilian cuisine is absolutely incredible! And let me not forget to mention Francisco, the chef extraordinaire! He truly is the best in the business!

Francisco is the guy, very nice and energetic. Serves you very well and makes you feel welcome. Definitely the right person for the place. He is fantastic.

Found this place on TripAdvisor and thought we would try it out for my sons 9th birthday meal. Although not everyone had great English, they did everything to accommodate each of our different preferences when it comes to meat cooking, red or well done etc. Very friendly and great atmosphere. Lamb for me was the best meat served, some if the beef we had was a little on the chewy side but most was quite nice. They sand my son happy birthday and we were leaving around 830/9pm when the music was starting, but with young kids was time to go. A small homely restaurant definitely for the meat lovers! Great kids prices make it even more attractive, thank you Francisco and team. 10 of us visited and although its a bit tight when all tables are full, which they were the atmosphere was buzzing!

Lovely food, great staff...especially Francisco who made our visit special!

Brilliant dinner with fantastic food, friendly staff and good service, would recommend to everyone who has a good appetite and enjoys quality food 😀 such a treat to have live music aswell an excellent night out

Food was amazing. Francisco made us feel welcome

Food is absolutely superb, cuts are brilliant and all cooked so lovely. Decor is really lovely and staff are friendly and energetic. Fransisco is very proud in his work and shines through his joy at serving. Good atmosphere with music in the background and a good selection of sides to accompany the cuts of meat. Stopped here by chance due to a craving and one of the best stops we've made.

Outstanding service, food always hot. Fresh meat always coming to your table. Great choice.

Came here with some mates and this place was very pleasant from the owner of the restaurant being very pleasant, friendly coming by with different selections of meats and checking to see if all was ok with my group! As a Pesterain the food selection choices was also great Definitely recommend! 👍🏾

We found this place by accident as it was a few meters from the Travelodge where we were staying. With one of us being vegetarian we entered with some apprehension as it is described as a BBQ/Steakhouse. The vegetarian choice was impressive - too much to try everything - large selection of tasty fresh salads and also at least half a dozen hot buffet items. The meat kept coming and was cooked to perfection - delicious. Even my teenage son with his massive appetite was full up and said no more. The reduced charge for kids and vegetarians made this especially good value for money. The warm homely family run hospitality here was such a change from the usual chains that are staffed with low paid overworked youngsters. We were made to feel special and wanted. A personal touch that we will remember because it is so rare these days. It's a night we won't forget not least as my son misheard the waiter and was adamant that he had served us ".. piggs wings..." we roared with laughter. A massive thank you to this warm and welcoming place - we will be back.

Very nice food, the meat was amazing!!! The atmosphere was really nice, definitely recommend!

2nd visit after our 1st visit a week ago and seems that the 1st impression will last forever 😀 everything is amazing and food is delicious and Francisco never failed to impress us and make our dinner enjoyable

Lugar com rodízio super gostoso e fui muito bem recebida pelos funcionários do restaurante. Voltarei mais vezes.

Just had a very nice buffet dinner here for the first time! There were lots of different types of meat, all of which were delicious and high quality. The service is very friendly and attentive. There's also plenty of cocktails to choose from too. I would recommend coming here if you're in Watford and very hungry!!

Currently writing a review whilst we’re still eating as the food is that amazinggggggggggggg that it can’t wait. The service is brilliant and the buffet selection and the meats are absolutely delicious. Will definitely be coming back!

A comida é muito saborosa! A experiência se tornou fantástica por conta do colaborador Dalso, que, por coincidência, era do mesmo Estado/Cidade do Brasil que eu (Espírito Santo). O mesmo é super educado; gentil; atencioso; serviu as carnes do rodízio; me deu dicas. Nota 10 pra ti, Dalso! O local é aconchegante e estava tocando o DVD do Gusttavo Lima, tornando o ambiente bem brasileiro e bem alegre, dando para matar saudades dos Rodízios brasileiros. Um outro colaborador do Estado do Maranhão (que eu não sei o nome) também foi super educado, gentil e atencioso. O ponto negativo ficou com uma colaboradora NÃO brasileira (loira e bem branquinha), que se demonstrou super arrogante desde o momento que eu entrei no restaurante e disse educadamente a ela que não falava Inglês. A mesma saiu bufando, inquieta e com raiva. No final, quando fui pagar a conta, criou uma confusão ao afirmar que a minha nota era falsa, se demonstrando agressiva e impaciente. Caso não fossem os outros 2 colaboradores brasileiros acima narrados, a experiência teria se tornado péssima. Foram gentis e resolveram a situação de forma rápida, tentando minimizar o constrangimento causado pela precitada atendente. Recomendo treinarem essa funcionária! Muito mal educada! Estive em diversos bares e restaurantes em Londres e fui muito bem tratado em todos!! O único local que passei por esse constrangimento foi em um restaurante Brasileiro! Uma pena!!

The ox tail in the buffet is the best thing I’ve had in a while, the rub they use on the meat is better than all other Brazilian bbqs I’ve been to in the uk ( including the big one in the O2 ) I would recommend it to any and everyone , they are halal conscious but still keep their authentic fell to their food.

A family run restaurant with delicious meat offerings and a nice buffet of sides and salads. It was busy the day we visited (Saturday) and we were sat in the corner which was hidden - the service was fine but it did feel at times we were forgotten and had to keep asking for things which was a bit annoying. I would definitely return to try it another day.

First time visiting this fabulous Brazilian restaurant and wow what an enjoyable evening the food amazing great selection of buffet dishes both hot and cold and the selection of meat that is carved at the table hot fresh delicious and staff friendly welcoming can not do enough for you, great atmosphere if you can please give this wonderful restaurant a visit you Will not be disappointed thumbs up guys thank you 😋

the place advertise picanha in the front of the house and only served Alcatra, pork sausages, chicken and chicken heart and pineapple, even tho the flavour of the alcatra was good, the price and the marketing were false, so I would not recommend this place for the all you can eat meat, definitely not a real rodizio like it advertise, we went on Brazilians fathers day, the restaurant was empty at lunch time, a day where it was supposed to be full of meat for the customers.

Very nice service, friendly staff and delicious food. I would come again for sure.

Succulent meat, and a convivial atmosphere. Our server Francisco relentlessly dished out his delectable meat and witty quips with his trademark Brazilian panache. Come for the meat, stay for Francisco!

Went to this place with my kids this afternoon and the service was fantastic. The main chef also came out and was lovely, she made a lot of effort with my kids for them to try different dishes. Will 100% be returning for another visit.

Found it by "accident" while driving on the motorway looking for a place to eat and have made of this place my official stop station to eat great food for great price while enjoying great service.

A very ,indeed very,friendly place, good food and service. What, without a shadow of a doubt, brings the place to a five-star level is one member of the staff in particular:FRANCISCO a star from Maranhão!

Excellent service and great menu Wide range of different salads to compliment the range of fine roast meats Recommend and will return again.

the best Brazilian restaurant in all of England. Good food a great place to be with friends and family.

First time trying halal Brazilian food. There was a good selection of fresh salads and food to choose from, the meat was really well flavoured but my favourite was the chicken sausage and chicken piece. It was the juiciest! The chef salad, Stella, was extremely welcoming and her salads were clean, fresh and delicious! Will be coming back here with friends and family and would definitely recommend

Lovely staff, very attentive. Amazing BBQ food, really well stocked buffet. Had a lovely lunch.

Lovely catch up with the family in a enjoyable and comfortable setting with different types of meat, highly recommend this place.

Delicious food and well cooked. Friendly staff, clean and tidy environment.

Nayara was fantastic! Explained everything so well and was a delight to talk too! Food was delicious and couldn’t be faulted! Compliments to the chef! - Alexandra, Karen and Annie

I will not recommend this place. The waiter did not know to serve drinks. He brought tonic water with the whisky, then offered lemonade as the Resturant did not have soda water. They had to go to the corner shop and buy. During dinner there was a water leak from the flat above, this was happening before too as the ceiling was already stained from previous leaks. We had to leave restaurant through the kitchen and no apology from the owner. Waiter tried his best. Food looked more to have been prepared at lunch time. But the grilled meats were good and the chef made an attempt. Sadly very bad experience and cannot recommend this restaurant.

Centrally located, always lively atmosphere (they also have live music sometimes). The cold and hot buffet and rodizio is great - we always go for this. Highly recommended to go there if you are starving and able to eat considerable amounts of food, otherwise it may not be worth it since the price is fixed no matter how much you eat (drinks are not included). They serve a large variety of meats. Very friendly staff and always a pleasure to be there.
