Editorial Review for Cafe Belo – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
A favorite of Brazilian expats and budget-minded students, Café Belo enables its customers to select hot and cold items from a buffet and then pay a flat rate of $5.49 per pound. Most buffet items change daily, though freshly barbecued meats are a constant. Popular items include rice with cod fish, fried yucca and sautéed squash.

I love this place! i think that the weighing the food method keeps them from having to bury the quality of the food like full buffets. they have two locations and there is something new you wanna try every time you walk in. i recommend the boneless chicken that they have on the rotisserie wheel.

Pros: great servers (lots of smiles)

Cons: ? nothing

Quality Brazilian BBQ at the best price in town. The buffet format allows you to pick and chose what and how much you want on your plate. The price is determined by the weight of your plate. A full meal can cost as little as $5.00. The meats are slow cooked and sliced in front of you to your liking (be sure to tell the man to stop or he'll keep cutting). The staff is friendly and inviting. Most speak English very well, some do not, but that's part of the charm. Their newly renovated bar is quaint and well adorned. A very comfortable eating environment. Lunch and dinner are the forte meals. They serve a very decent breakfast too!

Pros: Fast, friendly, delicious

Cons: I can't think of any. Get there at peak hours (11-1) (4:30-6:00) before the meats dry out.
