Yelp.com Review - by Karim A.

1.0 of 5 stars. This place is by far the WORST Brazilian place in the Los Angeles area. If you're looking to impress your date with an expensive check and a "unique" atmosphere, by means make a trip. However, if…

5.0 of 5 stars. In the mood for meat(s)? Then this is the place you should consider. All of the meats served were excellent. Salad bar has a variety of selections/sides to compliment your meat eating. Live piano…

4.0 of 5 stars. Many, many times I have passed through Paseo Colorado and glanced at the restaurant signs while strolling. One of these signs is that of Porto Alegre. I simply thought it was a just another restaurant…

Yelp.com Review - by Johanan L.

4.0 of 5 stars. With 7 types of beef coming non-stop at ya' for lunch, how can any carnivore complain? This place ain't bad. At a price of slightly above 50 bucks for 2 including tip, this place does justice.…

Yelp.com Review - by Oi G.

4.0 of 5 stars. I wonder every time I go there why they do not take advantage of street front. I never can tell whether they are open or not until I get close to the place. One more thing, I never went there when I…

Yelp.com Review - by David S.

4.0 of 5 stars. This place is great for a big weekday lunch. $35 for dinner (with 14 different meats) is questionable, but $19 for lunch (7 or 8 meats) is a slam dunk. Their best meat is the picanye - the Brazilian…

3.0 of 5 stars. I guess they dont serve their prime cuts on weekdays. Last visit was 06/03/2008 and it was very disappointing. I don't know why restaurants think they can be in business after they drop the quality.

4.0 of 5 stars. Service was excellent, great selection at the self-serve bar (fried bananas.. yum!!), and decent selection of meat. It's a bit pricey, but worth it every once in a while.

5.0 of 5 stars. I have to say that as far as Brazilian BBQ goes, Porto Alegre is the best for the price. I've been to quite a bit of Churrascaria's in LA and this is by far the best. The variety of food down to the…

3.0 of 5 stars. These churrascarias are popping up all over the place. They are waaay overpriced (I think the one in Burbank has a $60 flat rate/person, Porto Alegre is $35) and they aren't taking the time to make…
