Very helpful waitress, however, the meats were VERY rare to the point I felt like was chewing on an eraser. I ordered a New York strip at the start of my meal and did not receive it until an hour and a half later. For desert I ordered the lava cake and while it was “free” with the mean it definitely either was made a week before or it was from the freezer. This restaurant has a lot of potential but it’s just not living up to its full potential

Much of the meat was overcooked and dry. I had to send my bloody Mary back because it was quite possibly the worst I had ever been served, I didn't even trust the bartender to try again... it was that bad. Salad bar was lacking... but there were like 3 kinds of potato salad, so there's that... really not a great place to come on a special occasion.

We had bad experience a while back when it was owned by another owner. It had bad service and food, but MAN O MAN WHAT A TURN AROUND! The food was fantastic and so was the service! We will definitely be back. My picture is a bit messy but its because I was hungry.

Good variety but the restaurant needs some upkeep. The open grill makes it feel kind of grimy and flies at the buffet are a turnoff. I’ve been there twice and it never really crowded. Overall it’s too expensive for the quality of dining you get. I’ve been to better South American meat buffets overseas.

Very marginal food with no flavor or taste. Many of the meats were overdone on the outside (sausage, ribs), and the flank steak was so thin the best they could do was cook to medium. The chicken wrapped with bacon was the only meat worth eating. Really wanted to like something, but every meat we tried was either tough or flavorless.I would not go back, would not recommend to friends, family or foes and wish we would have gone to the mexican restauraunt my wife heard good reviews about.

Selection of food is amazing especially considering the price. But the service could be better. The wait staff looks depressed. The chef serving the meat didn't seem to understand my request. Asked for medium-rare and I received well done meats. Notwithstanding the flavor is very good and the meat selection for lunch is impressive. If you want good food and variety this is a place to go, but a good customer service experience won't be had here.

Go ready to eat a lot!! Variety of meat (pork,chicken,cow, delicious blood sausages & chorizos a la parrilla😋) also, salads, different types of sauces for the meats, delicious hot empanadas and bread and more! They have a happy and family environment. Our family had a great time specially when is about eating a lot!😆 Service and servers are great! Food is on time, nice and hot at all times. Not a 5 ⭐️ just because the outdoor/gardens/parking around it doesn’t look as nice as it should in my opinion.

The experience wasn’t well explained by wait staff, so we had no idea which meats were coming and when. The meat temperature was unpredictable; medium rare was often dry and well done. For a steak house, the sirloin and filet didn’t come to our table until the end of the meal and we mostly filled up on chicken and pork. The short ribs and lamb were grisly and heavily salted; we sampled but couldn’t eat. The salmon was heavily salted and I wasn’t able to eat it. The filet was generally tasty; if that came first we may have had a better experience skipping the other meats and fish that weren’t good. The chicken was good, but the bacon on the bacon wrapped chicken was under cooked. I may try brunch in the future, but I won’t repeat dinner for that price; the quality wasn’t there.

In a word, underwhelming. The selection of food was average and most the meats were over cooked and dry. The service at the grill was probably the low point, as we had to wait until someone was there to assist us. Service was slow and not what you would expect for the price. Several of the staff were just standing around and chatting at the grill, making it harder to get food. Perhaps we went too early and they weren't on their A game yet. It just felt like the food wasn't worth the cost. You could get more options at Golden Corral or spend your money better at Texas De Brazil.

Been here five times as of this review. Three we're good. One was acceptable and the last visit was poor. It seems that the service seems to be best when there is only a moderate number of guests. Too many people and it is hard to get to the grill. Too few guests and the food on the grill isn't at it's best. This makes it hard to know when to go.

The service was excellent but unfortunately the food was not. The meats we're very dry and overcooked and every item on the salad bar was bland and not seasoned well, the deserts were average at best. The only thing going for them is that the restaurant looks nice and has a great atmosphere as well as the friendly staff.

For a lunch time on a Friday I really expected more. Much of the meat on the grill was a little dry and overcooked, though the person serving it was very nice. The price wasn't horrible from 14.99 to 19.99 for a drink and dessert with the buffet. The quality just wasn't up to my standards and the service never asked if we wanted to order more drinks which we would have done. Overall a decent experience, but wouldn't drive the distance at did just to have it.

Our party of nine had a very memorable experience at The Knife at Lake Buena Vista Florida. I give this restaurant a five star. The food is great and done to perfection. This is due to the conscience friendly chef Jose. He was very accommodating displaying a welcoming effect. Server Camilla was very attentive, friendly, and efficiently met our needs. I always enjoy returning to this restaurant when we are in Florida. Keep up the good work that you do. Pete

Carrabba's Italian Grill was jam packed so me and some friends ended up here. Wow. When you walk in, the tantalizing aroma of meat cooking overwhelms the soul. For $35 or so per person, you one bottle of wine, two beers, cola, or sangria (I chose a bottle of wine. A bottle!), All you can eat meats, salad/appetizer bar, and a dessert choice. I left stuff and satisfied. They'll cut off a piece of meat from a quarter and cook it to order. Plenty cuts available to select too. I had organ meats which I crave on occasion. The grilled pineapple goes fast so get it when it's available and eat it later. Great time!

I was excited when I heard this was opening in Woodbridge, I had previously been to the locations in Miami and absolutely loved it. The meats were good but the salad bar didn't have as many options and some of the things looked like they had been sitting there for a while. The empanadas were a bit dry. I will be going again and I will still recommend it to people.

Great food, decent price but only set back is for a place that does offer military discounts they limit it to the meal of only the military card holder. I've never been to an establishment that does such a thing. It's like why even bother offering discounts? I'm not trying to be unappreciative, but it was like barely anything there. But the food was good. Aside from having to ask the management for pineapples since apparently they are "only for dinner time", despite being on display during lunchtime.

We don’t drink alcohol or sodas and those were the only choices, so right from the start it’s not worth the price. We asked to take the included dessert to go and they wouldn’t allow that either...Food was fair at best, although the selection was good. Service was okay and she was nice enough, but we mist definitely will be going some where else because we won’t be back here.

This is for the location in Woodbridge, VA. Marginal at best. The salad bar was sub-par with lettuce, cucumbers, and hard tomatoes. I really didn't put anything else on my plate, as nothing else looked appetizing. The meats all tasted the same and were mostly over cooked. Once we had our food, we then had to find silverware. Our bottle of Chianti tasted like nothing I've ever tasted before, it wasn't corked, but something was off, and it was served in a dirty glass. Very disappointed!

We’ve been coming here for sometime now and sadly we have seen the negative changes. The place is literally crying for Chief Ramsey’s help. Pricing went from certain items being included to practically being completely broken down. Aside from pricing, the food is basically cr*p. The meat taste HORRIBLE. The salad bar is no longer made with the same ingredients. The meat is burnt, tasteless, and/or too salty. It felt like I was chewing on rubber. There was hairs on our meat and every single meat option was black.Two visits ago when we encountered the change we said we would come 3 times. This is our 3rd visit and am sitting here at the table writing my poor review on this horrible experience. I am almost sure there has been a change In management. They probably also buy lower quality meat and that’s why the meat is horrible now. But they have lost another customer due to this.

All you can eat is great. Nice selections on the salad bar. Meats are very good but if you like medium or less doneness, get to them quickly because they continue to cook while sitting on the grill. House wine is good, sangria a little on the bland side. A fun "experience" place.
