Horrible experience. Sat for more than half an hour and saw only sausages and raw chicken. Staff seemed miserable working for that awful place. Buffet is a joke, I've never seen hot dogs in a barbecue restaurant. They were even able to ruin the caipirinha,...that looked more like a slushy. Don't waste your time here, just cross the galery and eat at McDonald's, I'm sure it will serve you much better.More

The waiters/waitress were friendly and helpful. Thank you. The problem I have is that, once I had eaten some meat, it stopped coming. I waited and eventually waitress came and said 'Finshed?'. I said no, I'd like some more please. Then I saw a waiter...pass my table, serve another table and then pass back past me with meat on his skewer but he didn't offer me. It's like they felt I had already had enough. I had to be quite persistent to get more food, and I felt like they they weren't happy about it. Some more came eventually, but it took a while (even though they were serving a new table that came in). Additionally, there was only a limited selection of meats available and not all the ones listed on the sign outside. Incase you are wondering... I weight 58Kg / 128lbs, so I wasn't about to clean them out. I would not go back.More

The food was good but what really stood out was the service by Gabriel. Served us with a smile and made sure that all our needs were attended too.

For about 30 euros, I get a large beer, double tray of seafood (shrimps, mussels, etc.) plus salad bar and all kinds of meat - pork, beef, chicken (drum stick). Good atmosphere when football is on. During the weekend, I heard there would be live...music.More

The service and attitude from the manager was very bad. He was extremely rude, even when it came to small things such as asking for more water or a coffee. The meat also took an extremely long time to come, and by the time it...came our side e.g. rice or chips was already cold. There also wasn't a wide variety of meats, and it was either over or undercooked. On the other hand the vibe from the customers was nice and there were some nice waiters, but overall we will not be returning.More

Not what it used to be, the only good is the location. When you arrive to the restaurant, there’s nobody to sit you,The buffet is miserable, doesn’t invite you to try anything, and if you try, good luck with that! The waiters in general were...not very professionals and kind. Well, definitely was not a good experience and will not come back !More

We had a late lunch here after a trip to the Oceanarium. There was a live singer in on this Saturday (don't know if that's a usual thing or not) he was a bit loud and not fantastic, but did create a lively atmosphere. We're...not experts on the meat served but thought it was delicious. My husband had the seafood basket too...he really enjoyed it. The hot buffet wasn't amazing but it did the job I suppose. We also enjoyed the baked pineapple. It was absolutely lovely. The sweet trolley looked amazing but came at an extra cost which we hadn't realised wasn't included. Still the chocolate cake was great! All in all it was a good experience and we'll probably eat here again when we go back to Lisbon.More

We used to love eating here. But the portions are much smaller and not as well served. The picanha was extremely chewy. Not what is used to be.

Péssimo serviço. Disseram que não reservam esplanada, mas fazem a critério da gerencia. 1 garçom de carnes apenas para mais de 50 pessoas na varanda. Buffett bem inferior ao de 2015 e muito mais cara. A concorrente de Carnaxide vale muito mais a visita. Ao...falar com a Gerencia, não pareceu se importar. 🇬🇧 Not worth my money. Unfriendly service, bad quality Buffett, Only one Steak waiter for over 50 pax at the outside sitting. Expensive when compared with the competitors and lower quality. Taking advantage of Touristic location only. Shop for better places around.More

Terrible service. Restaurant half empty and still long time to get our order. Staff uninterested and somehow rude, everything too slow. Out of the 21 cuts advertised we were served only 4 (not counting the chicken drumstick and the sausage, obviously) and we had to...ask for additional 2 to get some variety.More

Chimarrao is a “all you can eat” meat restaurant, typical Brazilian Rodizio but there is even a buffet with many alternative dishes. Friendly waiters with the skewers did not let us down, every minute someone was coming with a different type of bbq meat.

This restaurant is ok for an outing with kids. The location is good, close to the river front. Expo is a nice area of Lisbon, you can walk for miles along the river, it makes for a beautiful walk before your meal.

Hi, in my opinion Chimarrão at Parque das Nações (Expo) presents the best salad and hot dishes bar. I am not sure if it is the largest, but it is of good quality compared to what I have seen around. Hope this helps.
