Awesome, attentive service. Great salad bar. Very flavorful meat served as each person preferred it. Well done, medium, etc. Very good,This was our first visit, and it certainly won't be our last! The concept and the food was outstanding! The staff were amazing 👏 Really looking forward to our next visit. Congratulations to a great team of people, especially to Luiz and Clayton, wishing you every success.

A dream place to eat at! Loved absolutely everything, and specially the meats! Very tasty and juicy. Also, the pineapple: a must try! Have to mention the cocktails: we all agreed that it was the best pina colada we have ever had! We came with a very picky 6 year old, and the staff made him feel very welcome, gave him special attention and provided the food he actually loved. And definitely core memory was made by the magician! Thank you so much ❤️ It is pricy but everything was absolutely perfect and worth every single pound.

Absolutely awfully disappointed with the place. The service was not existent ( the waitress were looking bored). I asked for water as the food was over cooked and salty - we were 5 people, we got one bottle of water and no glasses. My friend after asking 3 waiting staff who were passing, decided to take the glasses from another table. A lot of items from £40 menu not available ( we werent informed at the point of entry), so not really place where you want to eat on Sunday evening. No information on website that you will be charged £10 per person if you cancel the booking ( terms and conditions, which we all know not everyone is reading). Food over cooked, salty, minimum portion and the most of all awaful service ( i give one star as the boys who carried the meat were really nice) waitresses with no customers service at all, we have asked to remove the service charges as they dont deserve anything a part of being fired. No one attended our table to clean glasses or plates, we ordered the drink from the bar directly as we were tired of waiting for anyone to take our drink order Please avoid at all cost, the worst place ever. I booked for my husband birthday and was disappointed beyond believing.

For £38/head I expected more. Meat was tough to chew, dry, and tasteless. Service was good for the time we went (on Sunday 4:30PM, as they weren’t as busy as I imagine at peak times), but we weren’t sat until we got up to a staff and asked about our booking. A good spot if you're in the mood for steak, but the experience can get a bit repetitive and boring after a while. The endless servings of meat are appealing at first, but the novelty wears off quickly. The sides were underwhelming and didn't add much to the meal. Overall, it was a decent dining experience, but given the price, I expected more variety and quality. Not quite worth the cost in the end.

Sorry but, a churrascaria is all about the meat. We had the full £40-per-person service and every.single.one of the meats we got was ridiculously overcooked. I haven't cheffed in 17 years and i still could do a better grill than these guys who pay someone to be their chef .. Salad bar was excellent, but it's not a great consolation. Service was ok. I wouldn't go back. I wouldn't recommend it.

I went here with family for a birthday celebration. This was my first visit to a Viva Brazil restaurant and it was thoroughly enjoyed by myself and the whole family. Our server was very quite but friendly. The meats were excellent and of good quality. The salad bar was fabulous, such a wide variety of salad foods plus plenty of potato choices. Top tip: don't overfill on salad and potatoes because you'll fail to eat all your meats. They also do vegetarian and vegan options for those that don't eat meat. Being a Saturday night the restaurant was really busy so I would recommend booking a table to avoid disappointment. A unique experience but be prepared to pay top prices.

The staff is amazing and Victoria is extremely kind she explains us with details everything in the restaurant because it was our first time. The salad bar is so complete and so delicious i loved the black beans and white rice, polenta, cheeses and salad of course. I really disappointed the Brazilian sausage is not a Brazilian sausage I've trying in others places but this one is like a normal UK pork sausage, the Picanha is the best wow i was impressed with the flavor and the texture pinch of sea salt is the best and the Pineapple 🍍 as well They take walk in and that's so fantastic I recommend this place and definitely I will come back 😍

We were then brought freshly cooked items from the BBQ, and everything was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The service was also excellent. You've definitely become my favourite place to eat!

Good choices of sides, highlight was the Brazilian beef stew. A lot of the meat was chewy and gristly which was a shame because the flavours were really nice. Marked down on atmosphere because the floor was really slippery and where we were sat was so closed in everytime someone walked past we’d get knocked into.

The food was great . The waitresses were great . 1 did manage to spill ketchup over my new shorts but it was an accident & these things happen . The Manager was useless though. We asked to box up the remaining food so I could take home for the dogs . He said they do not allow this & he has had alot of people ask and complain about this. I asked why didn't you tell us this before ordering so we was aware and could make our decision whether to still have food there . He kept ignoring the question and waffle on about something else without answering the question like a politician would he went onto say we use to do this & 1 time the people took the food with them left it in the car all day then became ill and blamed the restaurant so they do not allow food to be taken out . then 5 minutes later said if you pay 40 gbp you can take the food on the plate home which is a contradiction to what he said previously how is paying for the food going to make any difference to the previous scenario he said . if someone pays they can still blame the restaurant if ill . the real reason is money money money he also said your lucky we do not have a wastage charge like other restaurants. We asked for his name and he would not give it . The manager is in the pictures below I think it was a real shame as the experience was great before this . however regardless of this and how frustrating it was i feel i need to give an honest and fair review as i would visit again . like i said the food was good but they need to let people know before ordering that they do not allow the food to be boxed up and taken home / doggy bag as it would save them so much hassle and the customer knows exactly what the rules are before ordering . maybe they do not do this as the customer might change their mind about eating there and they lose money but i feel this is dishonest CONCLUSION worth a visit but do not expect to take remaining food in doggy bag and you might have to deal with a useless manager if you have any issues . also the smaller platter is the better option and better value for money unless your a big eater

Been many times before but this time wasn't so good and since they changed the menu I wasn't a fan of the chicken wings (flavour) , pork ribs(tough) or gammon(salty) but did like the parmesan pork Brazilian sausages and the garlic steak. The seating layout had changed which I wasn't keen on and the tables were really close together

No one to greet us on turning up 5 mins before our booking. Eventually someone greeted us and went away to check the booking. When he did come back asked us to wait at the bar, nobody there to serve us. 5 mins later the same person walked past us and said he was preparing our table (two thirds of restaurant was empty and tables setup). Eventually taken to table past food on floor and had to wait another 5-10mins before someone else came and told us procedures in the restaurant. Not asked if we wanted drinks and not offered the £17 lunchtime offer only told we were having the £26 menu option. The 'salad' could have been a main meal but took another r r 10 mins before meat was offered to us at the table. This meal left two out of three of us with a bad stomach. If I could give service a zero I would. I would love to see Gordon Ramsey there with his Hell on Wheels kitchen, because I know I know we won't be going back.

Where to start Well, it's supposed to be a BRAZILIAN restaurant, but the name is almost Brazilian. Lunch> not much meat, the buffet lacked some basic things (fried potatoes, cabbage, among others) what was available was very tasteless, the fried banana WAS THE BEST I'VE EVER EAT 5*, the drinks took a long time to arrive, and the BRAZILIAN sausage 😂😂😂😂😂 it's a joke (the sausage is from the UK and has nothing to do with the Brazilian one) Ambiance> the space is beautiful and spacious, the music is another joke (Spanish 😂😂😂😂) The waiters I DID NOT SEE ANY BRAZILIANS all English (speakers) In short> I don't recommend it for anyone looking for typical food and it's not cheap at £28 per person

First time at Viva Brazil, after having tried Casa Brasil and Fogo de Chão. I was really disappointed with the quality of the meat. The meat was either dry or chewy and either bland or too salty. The sausage they claim is Brazilian is most definitely not a Brazilian sausage (you'd expect either toscana or calabresa, instead you get a breakfast sausage). The buffet was also underwhelming without a lot of variety. The service was lovely and welcoming, but I will not be coming back as it's not worth the price you pay.

Brazilian "rodicio" in heart of Cardiff. Great variety of very good meat cuts and reasonably varied free buffet. Excellent roasted pineapple for dessert. The attention was fantastic. I would highlight that while our reservation was for just two people, a friend that was just passing by while we were mid-way through dinner was allowed to come in and seat with us in our table without the need to order anything.

Had a great deal through Travelzoo for lunch for 2 with a drink each for £35. Service was fab from start to finish, the girls there work so hard and a fantastic job they do too! We were quickly seated, drinks order taken, and process explained within the first 10 minutes Items on the salad bar looked (and tasted) fresh and delicious with a lovely range to choose from. But the meat was absolutely stunning! Of the 7 courses, I only skipped the chilli chicken (not a spice fan) and didn't really enjoy the sausage but the rest of the meat was gorgeous! Juicy, tender and perfectly seasoned. The only slight downer was there were a couple of large parties that were a bit on the loud side but the acoustics of the place made it sound so much louder but it didn't stop us from enjoying the experience. Would highly recommend 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Hi everyone so I will share my experience Two friend and me, Sunday dinner between 20:00 and 21:30, maybe is because we come little late, but most of salads have been gone or old in buffet, the back beans is only soup and don’t have many options to choose, I understand that in a Steakhouse( churrascaria) we came to eat beef’s not salad or beans, but for 39£, all the foods need to be fresh, don’t matter the time. About the meat, chicken hearts overcooked, ribs dry, hard & tasteless, ‘Brazilian’ sausages tasted like supermarket sausages, most of the steaks so undercooked, garlic bread also undercooked with no ‘garlic taste’. But our dinner have was saved by the amazing waiter called Dounia, she is completely helpful and kindly, she asking for meat for the right way for us, all time friendly and smiling, the pineapple that’s great. Drinks are okay. Thank you.

Such a shame to see how the food has changed & sadly not for the better. This was about our fifth visit over the years and I’m sorry to say we will not be returning- the meat was fairly tasteless. The chicken hearts overcooked, ribs dry, hard & tasteless, ‘Brazilian’ sausages tasted like supermarket sausages, rump steak so undercooked almost raw, garlic bread also undercooked with no ‘garlic taste’. Went to the bar while we awaited our table, 2 staff behind the bar. One stocking up the fridges etc. totally ignoring customer waiting. The other started preparing drinks after I had arrived at the bar, presumably the drinks were for a table, however the member of staff didn’t so much as acknowledge me. No polite nod, ‘will be with you in a minute’ etc. by the way neither the bar or the restaurant were busy! Lots of empty tables. The best thing on offer was the buffet - really disappointing experience

On arrival it was explained to us by our waiter about how the restaurant worked, you use the red side of a card to halt any meats coming around to be carved at your table and green to welcome a new meat. The meat was all delicious and good to experience different styles of meat. The salad bar was self service and all you can eat. A different experience and would try again.

Takes a bit of getting used too but once seated, you get meats carved at your table. Meat portions were good, our waiter was a very nice man who engaged in conversation every time he brought us new meat to try. Fourteen meats to try in the dinner menu, although I had about nine, while my wife managed about five. Some of the best meat you will eat, although pace yourself. Can be a bit salty so be prepared to drink plenty of beer 🤣

Mid Rodizio. All the meat was either under seasoned or salty to the point of being inedible

Our second Rodizio within a year, after The Amazing "Brazilian" in Hull. Whilst the Viva Brazil doesn't quite match the wonderful atmosphere of the Brazilian, the food and service were immaculate, esp our waitress Divine and the super friendly young blonde gentleman who persuaded me to have way more of the gorgeous cinnamon pineapple than I should've had 😅

Great food and great service as always. Its not cheap but well worth it and the buffet is very good for an all you can eat buffet but the real draw is the steak. Because they cut it for you at the table you can choose what cuts you want and how well done you like it and its such good quality. The bar has a good selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks, as the person who is often the designated driver I really appreciate their mocktails. My only complaint of the place is that it does get quite loud on weekends, if you are particularly sensitive to large crowds and busy places I'd consider going on a weekday instead where it is a lot quieter and more pleasant.

Went there for a friend's birthday, very expensive for drinks at the start. Chips run out and no more stocked up.

Really great atmosphere and lovely setting for a nice evening out. Staff were brilliant!! Unfortunately they were understaffed on the night we went so we did have to wait a little longer than expected for our cocktails. However we weren't in a rush and so it didn't deter. Staff also dealt with this really well. (Appreciated the offer of discount for delay.) Food was all tasty -maybe slightly overpriced as we didn't really use the unlimited offer but can't fault the customer service. I would definitely like to go again. 😊
