Do not even attempt to go to this new Brazilian sensation on a Friday or Saturday night. The space is cavernous and industrial, with leather banquettes and booths, an elevated seating area, huge, cone-shaped hanging lamps and big Rothko-style paintings on the wall behind the happening bar. The food, by Jamie Leeds, is big too, and especially popular is the $24.95 dinner with unlimited servings of grilled meats, poultry and seafood flourished on long skewers and carved tableside, plus a salad, black beans, steamed greens, brown rice and fried plantains. If pigging out isn`t your style, there`s a raw bar, lots of little dishes and a number of appealing entrees.
Riodizio offers south American and Brazilian meals. Expect the average entrée to cost $20 to $30, and there`s a prix-fixe menu. Plan to dress casual.
