navala churrascaria

lots and lots offood.., the consistency of the cooking let it down ..... 90% of thefoodwas perfectly cooked.... some calamari was under cooked and one serve of beef was tough .... other then that perfect and it would not stop me going again

lovely staff and nicefoodalong with riverside views.

very nice churrasco meat and they have big variety and they keep bringingfoodfor you till you tell them i can’t see meat anymore plus nice view

great variety infoodbut also huge on the meat, wish there where more vegetable options but apart from that was delicious. the haloumi, chicken thighs, pork and cinnamon pineapple where a huge delight and the pine apple was absolutely delicious. went here for a christmas work party and would definitely go back. very popular and great view, service was slightly slow waiting for people to come around at first but once they started you got a huge variety of everything.

huge disappointment unfortunately. being brazilian i always wanted to visit navala but since it's very expensive i was holding for an special occasion. last friday we went there and and they served very small containers offoodwhich you can order again however the container fit 3 teaspoons of rice, or farofa so you need to be reordering all the time. on the first half an hour we were served 1 sausage and 2 pieces of meat one which was undercooked. the manager came to ask how everything was going and we said that we weren't so happy. after that we started being served more often however most of the meat was tasteless and the picanha was saltless and though. you are charging $55 per person please serve your customers enough food! sorry for the bad review but it was very disappointing. i have been to the monthly feijoada tough and it was really good.

on the whole an unpleasent experience!
my wife and i had a nice seat on the balcony overlooking the river. great! the service was fast and the quality of thefoodwas really good.
just dont order wine there.
the first bottle was corked and after that we switched to a nicer bottle $112 they charged.
the young waitress was not experienced at opening wine and broke the cork while opening the bottle she went a way to fix it. she came back and poured our wine. after a glass each we noticed what we first thought was sediment actually turned out to be bits of cork. i look in the bottle and there's a large piece bobbing about. when we mentioned the cork the manager came and said "well you have drunk almost half of it what would you like me to do?" um filter and decanter it. so off he went and came back later. the wine tasted much nicer.
when we went to pay we offered a suggestion that in future if that happens to filter and decanter is before serving to the customer. his response "yeah, oh well sometimes it happens". no discount offered and poorly handled complaint/suggestion for improvement

greatfoodwith a lovely atmosphere. my partner and i have been several times. it has a lovely outlook of the story bridge a large range offoodto satisfy even the fussiest of eaters.
my only disappointment is that they no longer serve the cheese bread when you arrive.

i thought i was mature enough to go to buffets and not destroy myself...i was wrong. i went here with my partner and her brazilian friends, thefoodis delicious (apparently the chicken hearts were a highlight, but i was too far gone to try them by this stage), the view is great and the experience is fun. i left here feeling a good kind of terrible and down a fair chunk of coin...but happy.

if constantly circulatingfoodbeing served to you at ridiculously high speeds is your thing, then navala charrascaria is for you. stress and chaos aside, the meat was perfectly cooked, and there was a wide variety available to suit most palates. to be honest i don't remember too much from this restaurant except leaving extremely full and having enjoyed everything, so i would obviously suggest you drop by for the buffet at your earliest convenience.

this is an exciting but daunting experience – for $53 you get unlimited bbq meats and sides. the drinks list is extensive, moderately priced and well paired to the meats, and the service was mostly prompt and polite. the location along eagle street is nice but the venue is very busy and noisy; there were 5 other birthday celebrations when we went so be prepared to feel lacking in uniqueness if you’re celebrating. some of the dishes were unexcitingly mediocre and clearly tailored for more basic palates (chips, coconut rice, garlic bread), but others were terrific, particularly the pork ribs and beef ribs. waiters constantly bringfoodto tables and carve meats straight onto your plate which was, as a personal detester of the usual physical demands of buffets, a huge plus and greatly enhanced my consumptive capabilities. the range of foods available is somewhat overwhelming, so carefully constructing a strategic plan of attack is definitely advised. overall a great meal for the price, and worth a visit for group dinners.

not an authentic brazilian grill at all.
in spite of some efforts put by the waitress, the quality of the drinks andfoodwas very mediocre.
the caipirinha served as the true brazilian drink was made with soda water and definitely has got nothing to do with a real one.
meat cuts were ok, but half of them showed on the menu werennot served!???
it seems there are only serving this cuts occasionally...but nothing is explained on the menu.
this is frankly dishonnest to me.

an expensive experience for a very average dinner. stay away!

compared to other brazilian bbq restaurants i've been to, i was let down. the atmosphere is really bland and unimpressive and the room was quite ugly to be honest. even the views couldn't save it. thefoodwas okay but nothing great. the service was fine but once again, just average. i won't be going back.

we came here for a work lunch with approx 16 people - while thefoodis tasty i couldn't enjoy it due to the sweat dripping down my face. the peacock feather fans are useless and when we asked the waitress if it was possible to crank the air con, the manager came back saying that they couldn't do anything because the door at the side if the restaurant was open..... so close it?
so uncomfortable inside if you do go, go in winter

terrible. without doubt the worst dining experience i and our table of 20 have ever had. overpricedfoodwhich is cut from skewers in either a part raw, burnt or just fatty portions. side dishes when you could find one were plain, undersized and infrequently placed throughout the table. the highlight, at one stage, chicken heart offal was brought around the table as a treat......insulting. the room is noisy, you cannot have a conversation, the live music volume is ok although it is muffled and poorly mixed. our larger table was poorly managed by staff. people were missing out on meat courses and when skewers did arrive it was all unclear what was actually being offered. at no time did my plate look like it had a meal on it. after cutting away fatty bits, there was little to enjoy. the sausage was ok, only because it reminded me of the chorizo sausage i can get from coles for $4.50, not $53.00. we will not be returning. it is not a degustation experience. it is a disgusting trendy con. save you time and your money and dine somewhere else

all you can eat meat is a statement that rings sweetly to my ears, i love barbeque, i love nearly all cuts of meat and i love a challenge... liked the fact that navala had no time limit on theirfoodand no seating times....we followed the smell of smoky meat to the sign. we admired the fire pits at the front of the restaurant immensely and wondered what the fire pit specials were for the night. here is their menu.
