Planning your first visit
If it's your first time, here's the simplest order to sort things out: first check the hours for the day you want to come (see the full breakdown above), then book online with your party size and any special needs (kids, intolerances, larger group), and finally — if you don't have a car — request the free shuttle when booking or via WhatsApp a few hours ahead. In peak season, especially on weekends, it's worth doing all of this at least a week in advance, since the best-availability tables go first.
One last thing guests often ask: how long does dinner take? Rodízio doesn't run on a fixed schedule, since you control the pace with the green/red disc — on average dinner runs an hour to an hour and a half, but you can take as long as you like.
