Rodizio Brazilian Grill is located in the Rotterdam Centrum district. This meat lover's paradise is a great choice if you're looking for traditional 'all you can eat' Brazilian barbecue.
Vibe
Rodizio Brazilian Grill is a fun place for a big meal. If you've ever been to a rodizio grill in Brazil or Portugal, you'll feel at home instantly. The interesting fact that all waiting staff speak fluent Portuguese is a boon for its authenticity.
This meat lover's paradise, located next to the Corso Casino, is actually quite large. There are various seating areas, on ground level as well as below, and each has a slightly different feel. The decor and lighting are gorgeous.
There's a terrace out front, so outdoor seating is an option.

Menu
While Rodizio does offer simple lunch items, such as sanwiches, let's be honest, Rodizio is known for its rodizio buffet. Rodizio's main 'all you can eat' menu consists of mainly two options: complete and complete + shrimps. Rodizio also works with sittings. The earlier sittings are also less expensive than the later sittings.
On weekdays there are two sittings; on in the afternoon and one in the evening. On Saturdays and Sundays, the sittings are split into three. If you show up between 12:00 and 18:00 on a Monday, you're likely to pay €22,50 (or €39,50 including shrimps). On the other hand, grab dinner from 19:45 onwards on Saturday night and you'll pay €32,50 (or €45,50 including shrimps).
After you grab a seat and order your drinks, the buffet awaits. Grab your own plate and fill it with a wide variety of salad choices as well as rice and lasagna.
Once you've made it back to your seat, sit back and be amazed (or overwhelmed) by the wide selection of great tasting meat. There's picanha, spareribs, lamb and buffalo as well as chicken, sausage among other cuts of beef.
As for dessert, I had a quesillo. It had a rather fancy name on the menu, but this is a quesillo. It consists of eggs, condensed milk and caramelized sugar.

Dinner show
One thing that has to be mentioned. If you drop by in the evening, you're also going to be experiencing dinner shows. In one seating, these folks came out twice and performed energetic dances to samba medleys.
Rodizio is located behind the Rotterdam Hilton, across the street from Villa Thalia and right next to Corso Casino and Oude Luxor. It's quite easy to get to as it's just a few minutes walking from Rotterdam Central Station.
