“ Amazing. The service was perfect, with Julia a perfect representative of everything the place has to offer. Once the meat started coming, it didn't stop until we waved the white flag. 5 stars and can't wait to come back. ”
“ Let's talk about Gluttony. I know, I know it's sin. But Let's also talk about how I went to two different Brazilian steakhouses two days in a row starting off with Show de Carnes and that's why you guys deserve 10/10 stars. If I could give more stars I would. As a big back, I know a thing or two about Brazilian steakhouses, and when I tell you the sides itself can make or break the experience , man. The rice, the SUSHI (which was SURPRISINGLY good), the salmon, the rice and beans, the mussels, the shrimp ???! . Um no need to go to Vegas to have a grand buffet experience just come to Palo Alto. I would go just for the salad bar. But then when you add the quality of meat on top ! Oh my God. So good. Thank God I don't have high blood pressure (yet) but if I did, I would've had to take an extra "water pill" cause it was a little more "flavorful" than the other Brazilian steakhouses I've been to, but in a good way. The Sangria (which is surprisingly hard to find nowadays) was also superb. I could've drank 16 of them. Thank God there's a happy hour too! Special special shoutout to Felipe, who made our experience personable and memorable. All the staff was super kind and just very personable. I do think that is an element of overall South American, Brazilian, Hispanic/Latino culture that I miss dearly having lived in Florida and New York. I know it's just a steak house but living in the Bay, that warmth is very hard to find. Thank you for bringing the warmth and FLAVOR to Palo Alto. I'm ashamed to say it's walking distance from our condo and you will see us again very soon! ”
“ This place was delicious and the service was amazing. My boyfriend and I came in for an anniversary dinner celebration and they surely didn’t disappoint. We tried everything they had to offer. My personal favorite was the top sirloin, pichania (sp?) and bacon wrapped chicken. The grilled cheese with honey was omg !! My boyfriend liked the pork ribs and sausage and bacon wrapped filet. The cold bar was fresh and stocked. They even had sushi. For dessert we had the passion fruit mouse and Creme brulee and a couple of espresso martinis. The service was excellent and everyone was so friendly. It can be a place you dress up or even casual, there was a mixture of both. The overall ambiance was also welcoming and inviting. 10/10 recommend! ”
“ Went to Show de Carnes Brazilian Steakhouse today with a friend and everything was absolutely amazing! The meat was perfectly cooked, super flavorful and juicy. The wine was delicious and paired beautifully with the meal. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home. Definitely coming back — highly recommend! ”
“ I've been to one other Brazilian Steakhouse before and it was the one in Long Island, NY, they now have competition lol this place was amazing! The staff was so attentive and friendly! Our server's name was Victor and he was just simply amazing! Whatever they're paying him, he should get double! There was also more food than I knew what to do with myself! I don't remember the other Steakhouse having sushi! There was something there for everyone! I even saw a baby just looking in awe at everything going on around her! If you're looking for a "treat yourself/ fancy dinner", this is the place to go! ”
“ Came here to celebrate Father a day, pleasant venue and delicious meals. The service was excellent, I would definitely bring my family again. ”
“ Our host/server Julia was delightful and helpful. Once we went green side up with our markers, the meets came out fast and furious. Steak was delicious - too many varieties to review individually. Definitely with the trip! ”
“ I love a Brazilian steak house, and in my opinion the ‘Show de Carnes’ is the best one at the bay. I'm very happy that they opened a new unit in Palo Alto closer to my house. They have the best service, the best drinks and certainly the best dessert. I was attended at the bar by Lays, and I was able to have a complete experience! ”
