Fresh selections daily and a variety of meats plus salad bar. Lots of seating and parking

I have the great fortune of being friends with a native Brazilian, and she brought me to Rio a few months ago for the first time. I must admit that I knew nothing of Brazilian fare beforehand, and now it's a point of great shame. I can't stay away from Rio. It calls to me like a siren. The picanha has taken its place in my heart as one of the greatest pieces of meat I've eaten in the city. The flavor of the garlic steak also rivals, if not trumps, the finest garlic filets of elite steakhouses across Atlanta. The staff could not be more friendly and attentive. The restaurant is clean and there is always room for many people to join. This is important, as you will be compelled to share this joy and experience with those you love. It is affordable as well, but I would pay much more for such EXCELLENT cuisine. I love Rio. I love picanha. I love my Brazilian friend.

This is a cheaper version of fogo de chao, and i am not mad about it .! But the salad bar was mid but the food was great. The service was amazing and the ambiance was so much fun. We really enjoyed our time, and it was very good.

Rio is 5 stars in my books when in marietta this is my go to ! The service is amazing and they have a variety of buffet selections! Everything is always fresh and delicious! There is nothing like sitting on a wonderful patio drinking a cold beer and eating all the delicious meat you want ! I highly recommend this wonderful restaurant!

THIS IS IT. FOGO, who? Iron Age, what? If you love steak, this is the place. It's a Brazilian steakhouse buffet that offers up all the deliciousness you could want. The place is huge and almost feels like a cafeteria so perfect for large groups and families. Service is quick and they keep everything very clean. Very efficient with clearing up your plates and refills. The buffet has salad options and some hot items but the star is obviously the meats. Everything is cooked by in a large rotisserie grill with lots of cuts of meats rotating on spit rods. You can specify what temp you want and they can find that for you. I also love that they have innards like chicken heart. Everything is simply seasoned with salt and it's delicious. Also very affordable at $25 for everything compared to $63 at FOGO for dinner so if you don't need the FOGO ambiance than I would definitely come here to get the meat sweats.

Im so excited to have found a Brazilian buffet style eatery similar to what I have back up north, especially since this an ALL YOU CAN EAT. The buffet isn't super extensive but the options are versatile with some Brazilian staples like feijoada and salpico. Once you head to the meat counter you realize you do get a good bang for your buck. There's various types of meats but I think the must try's are the picanha, the pork ribs, chicken hearts, and definitely the pineapple. The staff is very friendly and will help assist you on how the restaurant works in case you're unfamiliar. This place is awesome for groups and solo diners. If you're somehow not filled to the point you want to take a nap, there's beautiful pastries and deserts on display from slices of cake to brigadeiros. I was told by the staff they even import their açaí from Brazil, it's not the smoothie bowls you get from the gentrified places. It's definitely a lively place with delicious food all around.

Didn't go here for the barbecue (although it smelled amazing in there). Tried two different cakes - the chocolate and the passion fruit as well as some smaller bakery items and the passion fruit mousse. Both cakes were amazing, really rich and flavorful and well priced. Service was also quick and attentive though a bit cold (maybe not the friendliest place for non Brazilians). Highly recommend as a dessert spot, to be decided on the barbecue.

This is the best value of any Brazilian Steakhouse type restaurant. Avoid the flash and pizzazz of the big names and visit Rio. My daughter and I went on a little road trip to check out the Georgia Aquarium. While in town we were looking for a good place to eat and I decided we should try a Brazillian Steakhouse. All of the big names were super far away but Yelp led me to Rio and I am so glad. This place is awesome. This is the setup here. You find a table and a waiter comes by and takes your drink order. If you want the meats, there are no gauchos roaming looking for a green or red card. Instead, you walk up to the bar and tell the guy behind the counter what you want. They have all of the typical Brazillian Steakhouse fare. Get picanha and you won't be disappointed. Get the garlic picanha and you will be in meat heaven. There is also a bar for all the sides one would expect. Do not expect the super baller fancy pants bar like the big guys. Expect great sides that you serve yourself. But really, the sides are a distraction. Get the meat sweats. You won't regret it. In addition to great food, the prices are super reasonable. If you are a boujee person who needs a bunch of dudes roaming looking to give you meat, this is not the place for you. If you are a fan of Brazilian food, this is the place for you. Next time I am in the area you can guarantee I will eat here.

This place is one of the best values for the quality of food you get for your money. Our favorite meat was pork belly and picanha, and you gotta get grilled pineapple. Their rice and beans was also yummy. Convenient location with plenty of parking. Weekday buffet including grill is $19.99 and weekends 21.99 They also have a breakfast buffet for $8.99. Im excited to check it out next. Oh they also have a bakery with a nice selection of cakes and pastries
