One of Rio's most respected traditional churrascarias, Churrascaria Palace has been serving rodízio-style grilled meats since 1951 and remains a benchmark for the format. The quality of the cuts is noticeably higher than tourist-trap competitors, and the salad bar is genuinely impressive. It is a proper carioca institution rather than a theme park version of Brazilian barbecue. Come hungry and pace yourself through the parade of meats.
