   I've been to Avenida before. I claimed it was the best Brazilian steak house in the city. I wanted to show a friend how amazing it was so we made a reservation for restaurant week. I left thinking I made a mistake. Service was terrible in comparison to our previous visits. Meat was sparingly brought around, except for shrimp in which he came around 8 times compared to emats twice. After we finished and stopped requesting food they completely ignored us filling our glass with water 1 time. First time I've gotten full waiting for meats to be brought to us. My friend enjoyed it but it was a pale comparison to my other visits. I can not recommend Avenida nor say it is number one in the city any longer. I'll think twice before picking this place over a Brasao which is number 1.

   It was a fairly typical Brazilian Steakhouse. The staff was very professional, quick and always on top of everything and was definitely a highlight. The salad bar was delicious though the selection was a little standard. The Picanha was good but the bottom sirloin was the highlight for me. Pão de queijo was good too. Overall it was very pleasant, would recommend to others.

   The food was good. I did like they have salmon as an option. The service was horrible. We had no idea who our server was because the server who greeted us just disappeared. We asked 3 times for our Brazilian lemonade and twice for some steak sauce. I had to wait 20 mins for a server to come around so I can ask for a tea. I also had to ask for the sides. For it being a smaller place, there was no servers around. It was always the people with the meat. The desert menu could use a revamp. Maybe partner up with a bakery from the area. We got the chocolate molten and i guess it was with dark chocolate but just not a good taste. I did love the atmosphere and the design of the restaurant. The meat was delicious.

   I made a reservation at the establishment and, upon arrival, was promptly seated by the courteous staff. Our server, Ramon, demonstrated exceptional service throughout our dining experience, attending to the needs of our party of seven with great attentiveness. I was particularly impressed with the variety of meat options available, with my personal favorites being the Picanha, Tomahawk, and Queso Asadero.

    Not good from start to finish. Strangest chicken salad in the salad bar with long strips of hard chicken. Meats tasted like liver and were not seasoned well. Even if you asked for medium, temperatures were not correct. Meat service was slow to the point one time we asked the server for any meat. Actual service was slow too and didn’t love being called “boss” by the server. Won’t be going back here.
