Description: The Carretão is much more than a steak house. Located in Ipanema, it is a reference in barbeque carvery and gastronomy, which combines quality, variety and service. The carefully selected ingredients are the raw material of Carretão's success. The irresistible menu gathers meats of all kinds, hot food, salads, antipasti and buffet of Japanese food. In addition, the staff of gourmets, maitres and waiters is always ready to offer you the best service. This makes our personalized service a unique differential. It is no wonder that those who go to the Carretão are always smiling.

Went here as was well reviewed. When we went in we were told all inclusive Buffet/meats for 85br. Didn't mention when offering desserts that these weren't included! As was coffee! Disappointed as meats really good and staff serving were friendly. Accompanying dishes plentiful but poor quality. When questioned additional charges with management he just ignored and charged full price, including service charge! Not worth the money so wouldn't recommend. Surprised no-one else has mentioned this in reviews!?

Presenting the food in a Brazilian way! Good quality of meat cuts, stakes and grills.
once you set down, simply flip the card to green to allow the weightier to serve you the grills and once you are done, flip the card to red !

It is a large restaurant which an accommodate many people, therefore there were many tourist agency bringing their customers.
The best to eat is the barbecue which they bring gradually, hot and in so many options: chicken, pork, veal, sausages, etc, etc
You can eat as much as you can, salads and starters are offered in an open bouffet as well as sweets.
Service was very fast and efficient.
Great opportunity to taste one of the Brazilian food specialty.

The place is really close ipanema beach and is one of the best option to have a traditional Brazilian barbecue. The variety of the salad buffet was good. The meat quality was perfect and the quantity was great. The service was also excellent. If you are stay in this area you must have a dinner there!

We had dinner here, we were very pleased. Nice variety on the buffet, and nice variety of meats. The staff was very generous, coming frequently with meats. It is a fraction of the price charged at several other well known popular places, but I found the quality here to be superb.
