Espetus Churrascaria Reviews

Excellent salad bar & hot dishes. Large variety of grilled meats & pineapple!

Had a lunch break with a friend and loved the fare. Your wallet will be lighter but you'll gain a pound or two after eating this 5 Star food!

The most delicious meats I have had in a very long time!

Food was good and plentiful. The salad bar was wonderful and the meat (carved from sword-type skewers tableside) was juicy and smoky. Drinks were strong. Dessert was delicious. Dinging them one star because they asked us to leave before we were ready because they needed the table. Who does that?

I took my boyfriend here for a belated Christmas/New Year's celebration. The selection of steaks was absolutely phenomenal, and the atmosphere surrounded us with privacy. The salad bar wasn't as well-prepared as the many skewers of meats, but in all fairness we didn't come for the salad bar. The service was friendly and it was easy to turn the green coin and receive a new skewer.

The food was superb, perfect place meat lovers! Great service will be back again!

Unlimited meat, what else can you ask for? Very high quality stuff. Take their advice and don't eat too much salad...

OMG this place is so fun! Great for group dinners like celebrating birthdays. It's all you can eat and the wait staff continually walks around with giant skewers of different kinds of meat. Everything is delicious and you can request them to bring items cooked to your preference such as medium rare or medium (nothing should ever be cooked medium well!!!)

Just excellent. A great experience to pick and choose your meats, no pressure to fill up on salad or vacate the table quickly. I declined everything except steak and pineapple, and made sure to only get the mango salad and pickles from the salad bar for maximum eating ability!

Great food, service and atmosphere. Wonderful selection of meats, grilled to perfection. Salad bar has a good variety of delicious options. Fantastic cocktails, wines and sangria's. Every staff member was friendly, personable and made you feel welcome and at home. The dining space is warm and inviting. Great for a one, a couple or large group.

Delicious food! But the amount of kids allowed took away from the experience..

I often take my friends to this restaurant with my highest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are great and the team is efficient and cooperative. Every time we eat in this place we have a gorgeous evening. I recommend this place with pleasure.

The San Francisco location would have been nicer if they didn't cram another row of tables between what seemed like was already 2 rows of tables... in other words it too cramed into a small place... parking is of course as expected in the city... the food was good, all the different kinds of meats. Maybe I'll try the San Mateo location. I dont mind paying but I like to be comfortable.

The food and service was great! John took extra special care of us and made sure we had everything we needed!!! A super great evening.

I love Picahna! Weekdays are best because the buffet cost only $30

Great service, juicy meats and great salad bar. Hubs even wanted to go back for seconds on the pasta lol. We devoured the food so missed taking a pic.

Love the sign on their restroom too.

Will definitely come back!

Wonderful... my sister had her wedding dinner here and we had blast..! It was fun and food is good

Finest food, kind employees, always good atmosphere. They charge convenient pricing and the food quality is fantastic. Fantastic work.

Meat lovers paradise. The pineapple is so good too.

Nice location for quality brazilian food. cool location to meet with coworkers. nothing but pleasant experiences here.

Wonderful!If you have a passion for food that's the perfect place to enjoy with your friends and family.I love the service

Excellent food and service. There were non-stop serving of various meats and chicken. The service was excellent... Great for group events. Can't ask for more

The best place to eat. I'm from LA. And every time when I visit Sf. I eat here. Is my favorite restaurant. I love it

Very good! Brazilian barbecue at a good price and a good selection on the buffet.

This spot is amazing and roomy, the menu was delicious and the prices were very economical. quick, productive service and very attentive staff. Highly recommended.

This place is an absolute wonderland. If you don't enjoy the food your wrong. I'm sorry. But it's true. You are wrong. Cyrus, the manager, is the champion of all restaurant managers and his staff will treat you right. One time at Espetus and you will get it.

Great food and meat. Very friendly team. They were really nice. The meat selection is good. I would recommend this place if you want to have a place to eat and relax from the big beautiful San Francisco City.

Red hair green eyes diamonds I agree with you I do NOT like the name for American steamed farmed coffee King Washington or Benjamin X I like Lincoln s Bush or Retro Reagan or even Pour da le Pence maybe Brew da Brush

That place is increasing the Air Quality Index in the neighborhood to very unhealthy levels because they haven't installed proper filters when barbecuing their meat.

Best churrascaria in the city!!! Thy have grilled prawns and the cinnamon pineapple that the other guys don't have!

Love this place food is excellent, service is great and very friendly. Have told friends to go there. Will be going back.

Amazing place! The service was absolutely stunning and the food was like it was meant for royalty. I recommend to anyone willing to try out something new and exciting!

Ridiculously expensive if you ever ate a churascarria in Brazil this would offend you

Great authentic Brazilian steakhouse. Many of the employees speak Portuguese. Their side salad/buffet area is dangerous because everyone from our party pretty much came back with a full plate before we started eating the meats. Service style is just like fogo de Ciao. Chip on the table that has one side green and the other red. They will keep offering you an abundance of meats while the chip is ok green and will stop/pause when you turn it to red. Every kind of beef cut you can imagine, shrimp, chicken hearts, pork, bacon wrapped filet mignon, etc. It's $2 a head if you bring your own dessert. Their tres leche was so moist and delicious !

Love love love love this place! While it's a bit pricey it's totally worth the splurge. My advice? Pace yourself on the salads/sides.. the meat will fill you up!

My favorite Brazilian steakhouse in SF. Great selection and great meet quality. Worth a visit for a special event (or if you're in the mood for a lot of meat!)

The most delicious and fun anniversary experience! So much more flavor than Texas de Brazil. The salad bar does not disappoint! Honestly give yourself at least an hour to savor everything they have to offer. The waitstaff and meat staff are very attentive and quick. Such an amazing experience all around. The only thing I would say is its a bit more expensive than I expected, but still great food and service!

God tier pork belly. Check. Delicious prime cuts of steak. Check. Great drink options. Yup. Great all around.

if you like meat and some serious high quality meat, this place is highly recommended. Been here couple times for fancy dinner. The place is expensive but the food is totally worth it especially if youre a total meat lover like I am. everything they serve is high quality and super tasty

Great place and fantastic meat! All-you-can-eat with high quality meat.
The waiters come to your table every time with a different type of meat until you decide that it's enough.
There is also a good salad buffet and a good wine selection.

Fair price

Food is good, but this place is overprice, could use more sides to go with the endless meats. Good brazilian cheese bread.

We came here for a work dinner and I thought it was a great choice. The restaurant is very big and can accommodate large parties. We tried all the meats and everything was so flavorful. The pork belly was probably the best I've ever tried. The sides and salad offerings were also very delicious. The desserts were good but not very special. I highly suggest at least trying once for a special occasion.

Amazing service. Food was amazing. No complaints what so ever. Lester was outstanding. Cheers!

Amazing food, very expensive but you get what you pay for. Plus it s all you can eat!

oohhhh kkkkkkk you got me there. this place is not what you think it is. very dangerous because lots of meat that but they don't beat it they cut it, excuse me mikel jackson. the slices are very nice but the ones that are the best are the condoments and the pineapple yes v shiny grilled and juicy ones.

Excellent food, exceptional service and atmosphere. Ate dinner with a large group and the attention to detail was amazing.

Probably the best Brazilian steakhouse I've ever been to but rather expensive.

I like this spot! They give high class food, their menu is nice, The chief cook in that place is very experienced, I like very much tasting all their dishes. The dishes are consistently tasty, the attitude towards the customers is agreeable. I often go to this restaurant and I not even once was disappointed. I highly recommend it.

So much meat! So delicious. The staff are friendly and funny. Oh, and there are non meat foods too. The mango salad is delicious.

I will be sad to ever hear of this place falling. On Jan 11th 2012, this was the greatest place I had ever eaten at in my life.

Do this for yourself.

I love this place... Excellent service. tasty and high quality meats. I'd come back to this resturant for sure

Meat. And more meat. It's carnivore heaven.

Lamb shank, Beef ribs, Sirloin, Flank, Chicken hearts, Shrimp. The list goes on. Their buffet before has a ton of food too and if you're not careful you'll fill yourself up before even trying any of the meat.

Meat was of a high quality and the great variety is well worth the $50/person as it's an experience everyone should at least try once.

There a Brazilian drink I'd recommend (not a wine drinker) called the Caipirinha. It's basically a mojito without the mint. Sounds weird, but it's tasty and worth a try.

Advice:

Go easy on the buffet and ask for only a little bit of all the meat dishes as there is no limit to how many times you can ask for more. A slice of sirloin might not look like much but when you consider they have 13+ meat dishes it adds up.....

I imagine parking is hit/miss. It's on Market so I'd give at least 15 mins to find parking. I hear they are pretty strict with seating a full party, but I didn't have trouble with either (was 6:30pm on a Sunday).

We had a wonderful dinner! Great service, drinks and dessert!

I've eaten at about 4 different Brazilian bbq, places and this one is BY FAR the best. The service is beyond amazing. The meat selection is superb. Any other place is not even in the same league.

For the price, this is the best All-you-can-eat buffet ever. The garlic steak and the lamb chops were 100% amazing: the latter giving new meaning to "butter lamb". The service was spot on.

I prefer this place very much. theres a special air. The meals are wonderful. the service is effective and the crew is courteous. The cost is modest. I highly recommend.

3 stars because the drinks are pretty good. The majority of the meats were over cooked. There was a piece of pork that the server was fighting thru with his machete and the pork almost won.

Great experience great food the meat is so perfect the staff is so so nice 10/10

We came for lunch. For 33 $$ you are offered a salad bar and a roulette of different types of meat. Everything was amazing !!!

They give high class food, their menu is nice, The chief cook in that place is very experienced, I like very much tasting all their dishes. The dishes are consistently tasty, the attitude towards the customers is agreeable. I often go to this restaurant and I not even once was disappointed. I highly recommend it.

Pricy but fun place to enjoy an evening with friends and family. The food is great, staff was accommodating.

The place to visit. we been Customer 14 years , and loved .

It s good for visit once, interesting place. You couldn t eat for $60 per person. Like result - regular restaurant will more better.

OMG! Absolutely fabulous food and service. Enjoyed the variety of meats and the salad bar is off the hook

Used to be tasty. Service and quality has gone down

Everything about this dining experience was awesome. The beef was all cooked perfectly, was moist and tender, and the flavors were amazing. The only downside were the shrimp. The flavor was not so amazing, but we just passed on it when he came back around. The dessert portions were a also very good size. When i am back in SF, this place will be on my lists of places to return to.
