Price: Expensive

• Brazilian • Mexicali

Located in Mexicali Caballito, Pampas is a classic Brazilian steakhouse. A Brazilian steakhouse operates differently than most other restaurants. Diners pay a flat rate for full access to the appetizer and salad bar, which features salad items, rolls, soup and other starters. The main courses, the meats, are then brought around from table to table on a skewer. Guests at Pampas simply hold up their plate and get as much as they'd like. Pampas carries a huge selection of meat to try, with options like prime rib, barbecue chicken and spicy pork.

When we arrived for our reservation, we were told that they no longer use Open Table for reservations. Furthermore, they were not open for dinner that night. They did accommodate us in the bar and ordered off the bar menu… Bottom line…call the restaurant directly for reservations!
