Lovely place with ample room. Food was okay, especially for it being an all you can eat buffet. There are certain items marked on the menu that you need to preorder but the table service was top class. Only complaint about the place was the toilet situation for a place so large not sure why there is only one toilet in the gents. Might have missed another location where this was but I had to wait to use the toilet which was inconvenient. Great atmosphere, a little expensive. Some dishes not too great (gyoza, salads), sushi rice needs improvement but sashimi and temaki are delicious. Gringo note: pretty Brazilian stuff here, down to Doritos on sushi or tempura ice cream for dessert. The “raw” oysters was what I found the best from their kitchen. Fresh , served cold, really good. The gratin ones are greasy and heavy As usually happens with all you can eat restaurants, a lot of fried options. Shimeji was served in good portions, but the sauce was just ok. The flambéed banana seems to be made in a microwave. The atmosphere was nice, and the service attentive, despite usually busy. Squid portion was tiny. Gyoza/Dumplins, you can skip. Heat, big and dry, The sunomono was quite good. Overall I liked even considering a little bit overpriced.

Simply the best. Staff is amazing and food is delicious. Options for vegans and vegetarian as well. Went here twice on my trip to Brazil, worth the wait.

Although the wait took more than a hour, the food in general was good, but service was "ok" ...they were more polite when you do the first orders but later they tend to ignore you most of the time. (Even when you ring the bell from the table) The oysters are smaller than they appear haha but was good.
