I went to the Brazilian Bull Steakhouse a couple of years ago for a friend's birthday party and we had a great time. Food was good, the atmosphere was great and we all had a fun time eating, laughing and spending time together.\n\nSo, when a couple of friends suggested going to the Brazilian Bull for dinner, we all said sure and off we went.\n\nBig mistake.\n\nWhen we first sat down, our server rolled over a big cart with different bottles of wine. OK. We look and decide on a bottle of wine - $50. OK. Typical for a good bottle of wine when you're at a restaurant.\n\nNext, each person was $35 each to eat. That included my friend's daughter who was only 10. Yup, they charged us $35 for a 10 year old.\n\nThere was an open salad bar / seafood / hot food buffet area. Total disappointment. Pasta salad was dry. The crab salad was just shredded crab. The ceviche was terrible. The different salad dressing that they had out looked as if it's been sitting out for hours. It was warm and gooey.\n\nNext came the varieties of different meat. The restaurant wasn't very full (it was a Thursday night and only 3 other tables). I expected more variety... but only had sausages, roasted chicken, ham and sirloin (I think. it was beef I was told). The ham was too salty... the sirloin was dry and the roasted chicken... it was OK... \n\nSo, we're sitting here eating and we're all wondering what we're getting for $35 each plus $50 for a bottle of wine. I really expected better...\n\nNow, for the 'if you don't ask, we won't tell' upsell. My friend's 10 year old sees the dessert cart and of course is drawn to every sugary item on the cart. The server cuts a HUGE piece of chocolate cake... even though we said, just give her a little so she doesn't overdose on chocolate. When we get the check we see why. They charged us $10 for the chocolate cake. \n\nSo, for the 10 year old, we pay $35 for the dinner, $10 for dessert. All the adults had to be $35 for dinner, spilt a $50 bottle of wine.\n\nI feel cheated. We like to eat at nice restauarants and don't mind paying for quality. In this case, I feel as if we were ripped off.\n\nStay away from this place and save your money.
