    We love going to Brazil Gourmet. The food and atmosphere excellent. We lived in Brazil for five years and when we feel a little homesick, an evening at Brazil, gourmet definitely helps .

    I was there in the past , and food was fantastic, this time we ordered a churrasco to share with friends and was really poor , for $ 130 was really poor. But the worst was when the server, and another person of the staff , trying to move us away , removing dishes , glasses, etc and we didn’t finished, was a bad experience to be honest
    Brazil Gourmet Pizzeria & GrillResponded on March 25, 2026
    Hi, Nestor! Thank you for sharing your experience. We are very sorry to hear that your recent visit did not meet your expectations. We apologize for the portion size of the churrasco and for how our team handled clearing the table. That is not the experience we want our guests to have. We appreciate your feedback and will address this with our staff to ensure it does not happen again. We hope to have the chance to make it right on a future visit.

    Dined here for Valentine’s Day lunch and while the restaurant was busy, the service was still attentive and the food was amazing. My boyfriend order the Picanha and his steaks were cooked perfectly while my feijoada was absolutely delicious. Looking forward to dining here again!

    An unexpected find in downtown Damascus with authentic Brazilian food. The prime angus sandwich I had was fabulous. Croquettes appetizer was delicious. We were disappointed they’d run out of feijoada, but it will be our excuse to return.

    Hello, Marty! Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the Picanha sandwich and the croquettes.

    I didn't think it was right that they included the 20% tip directly in the final checkout amount as a "service fee" and then suggested a gratuity as if they weren't already charging it in the service fee.
    Brazil Gourmet Pizzeria & GrillResponded on December 5, 2025
    Hi, Giuliano! Thank you for your feedback. We understand your concern regarding the 20% service charge. This charge is standard at our restaurant and is fully regulated. It is intended to provide fair compensation to our staff for their service and is clearly indicated on our menus, at the point of sale, and on our website. Guests are always welcome to leave an additional tip at their discretion, as the 20% service charge already helps fairly compensate our team for their work during your dining experience.

FAQs

Yes, Brazil Gourmet Pizzeria & Grill is a lovely choice for date night. Guests frequently praise the warm, lively atmosphere, attentive service on good nights, and dishes like perfectly cooked picanha and feijoada. The dining style is Casual Elegant and the dining room’s decor and lighting contribute to a romantic vibe; you’ll sometimes even catch live music. For a quieter, more intimate evening, consider an early seating on a weekday rather than a busy AYCE pizza night or weekends.

Portions are generally generous. Guests report big portions for steaks and grill plates, with many leaving very full and sometimes taking leftovers home. The all-you-can-eat (AYCE) pizza nights are popular, slices are thin (so you’ll likely try many varieties), and several guests said they left full after multiple slices. Expect full entrée portions for steaks and shared churrasco options, plus plentiful appetizers and dessert pizzas.

Family-friendly seating is common, guests often bring families, celebrate birthdays, and enjoy the casual, welcoming vibe. Several reviews describe a family atmosphere and birthday celebrations, and the AYCE pizza nights attract groups. Information about accessible seating (ramps, wheelchair tables, etc.) isn’t mentioned in reviews or the restaurant listing, so call ahead if you need specific accessibility accommodations.

It depends on your goal: go on Wednesday night for the AYCE pizza special if you want variety and a lively crowd, but expect it to be busier. Weekday early evenings or non-peak hours are better if you want a quieter meal and faster service. Weekends and holidays (e.g., Valentine’s Day) draw crowds for date nights and special meals, reservations or early seating are recommended.

The ambience is warm, lively, and distinctly Brazilian, guests praise the décor, lighting, and friendly, family-oriented vibe. Expect upbeat dining with occasional live music, a bustling pizza-night energy, and casual-elegant touches. It can be noisy on busy nights, so if you prefer a quieter table ask for an early reservation or a seating away from the main buffet/AYCE area.

The dress code is smart casual. Guests typically arrive in neat, comfortable attire suitable for a casual-elegant dining room, nothing formal required but presentable clothing is recommended.

Yes, calling ahead is recommended for special requests. Guests successfully arranged birthday celebrations and occasional complimentary desserts, although experiences vary (some guests reported staff miscommunication). If you need seating preferences, dietary substitutions, or a birthday surprise, call the restaurant in advance so staff can confirm whether they can accommodate your request.

Busiest: Wednesday AYCE pizza nights, weekend dinners, and special occasions (e.g., Valentine’s Day) draw the largest crowds. Quietest: weekday early evenings and non-peak hours tend to be calmer with faster service. If you prefer a relaxed meal, aim for a weekday or early dinner; for the full AYCE pizza experience expect a lively, busier room.

For pizza lovers, Wednesday is the standout day thanks to the all-you-can-eat pizza special and rotating slices. For a quieter, romantic dinner with steaks or churrasco, a weekday evening (Tuesday–Thursday) or an early weekend seating is better. Choose Wednesday for variety and value; choose a weekday early evening for a more relaxed meal.
