Editorial Review for Churrascaria Plataforma – by Daniel Rosenblatt
The Scene
The handsome, simply appointed dining room has a circus-like atmosphere, with lots of "oohs" and "aahs," clanging of silverware and waiters who relish in talking up the different cuts of beef.
The Food
When you're ready, green-light the expert cutters by flipping the small disc at your place setting, and you're presented with rounds of pork ribs, short ribs, rib-eye, sirloin, flank steak, brisket, top round, special top round, chicken legs, sausage, pork loin, lamb and the oft-overlooked fish of the day. Most of the beef is nicely charred, teasingly salty and medium roasted so the slices are pink and moist. The poultry and pork loins are flavorful, and pork sausages remain juicy beneath a crisp exterior.

I was told not to eat anything all day before I come here. I'm glad I followed the instructions. I didn't go crazy with the meat because there was so many other delicious dishes to try. Everything was fresh and yummy. There is a plenty of seafood and they bring to your table rice, beans, polenta, fried bananas, homemade steak sauce, cheese bread 9t o die for), and mashed potatoes. Not to mention there are people coming over to your table with racks of prime rib, short ribs, chicken, sausage, and several different cuts of steak. Yeah, and then there is a dessert cart which will add that extra sweet taste you will need.

You get what you pay for. The food is good and the price is high. Unfortunately, you also get snooty service. What baffles me is how an entirely unoriginal concept could be so snooty about its service. When you go to Daniel, Per Se, etc - they are warm and welcoming and you have a great experience. I didn't see any Michelin stars on the wall, nor people queuing like at the Little Owl, but yet several of their employees, including "Ricardo" treated us as if we were lucky to be there. The real luck is that I can stop by a better version of a Brazillian steakhouse in Dallas or Atlanta, where people have better manners.
Cons: Group Dining Nightmare!
