Frommer's Review

For a churrascaria meal without breaking the bank, try Carretão. The system is similar to many rodízio restaurants: meats are delivered to your table by a constant parade of waiters carrying a variety of cuts, and you can help yourself to a large buffet with a selection of 20 salads, various types of sushi, and even some grilled fish such as salmon or trout. In addition to beef, Carretão also serves up a variety of pork, sausage, chicken, and turkey cuts. Children under 5 eat free, those ages 5 to 9 pay only half price. Just keep them away from the fancy fruit smoothies and desserts that the waiters eagerly push on you; these jack up the bill pretty quickly.
