    Today we visited this place with my friends for the first time. The space is relatively small, but overall nice and well looked after. What I didn’t like was the time management. Even though we had a fairly high bill and didn’t just have one drink each (we had 2–3 per person), we were asked if we wanted more drinks, said yes, and then 10–15 minutes later we were told we had to leave because our 2-hour reservation was over. I understand there are other bookings and rules, but in that case, additional drinks shouldn’t be offered so close to the end of the time slot. Also, at some point they stopped bringing meat without any explanation, even though we would have liked more. Finally, regarding the tip, I didn’t like that it felt mandatory and for a specific amount. Tipping should be optional, and this should be made clear from the beginning, not at the end. Overall, it was an okay experience, but there is definitely room for improvement. Thank you !!

FAQs

Business casual is suggested, the restaurant lists a business casual dress code, which fits the casual-dining yet celebratory atmosphere many guests describe. Smart-casual attire will be perfectly appropriate for date nights or family celebrations.

Yes, The Ribs Gaucho BBQ is a popular choice for date nights and celebrations. Guests praise the lively, cosy Gaúcho atmosphere, attentive smiling staff, and the table-side rodízio service which makes for a fun, shared dining experience. It suits casual but special evenings (book ahead for a weekend dinner). If you want a quieter vibe, consider a weekday lunch or an earlier evening seating.

Portions are generous, The Ribs operates a rodízio (all-you-can-eat) BBQ experience with unlimited table-side meat service plus a salad and hot sides buffet, so guests often say they leave very full. Many describe being “rolled out” or eating their weight in meat. Note: a few guests mentioned pacing issues or slower rounds late in service, so allow time for the full experience.

The Ribs is open these hours: Mon–Fri 12:00–22:15, Sat 12:00–23:00, Sun 12:00–20:45. For holiday or special-day openings (e.g., Christmas) check with the restaurant when booking, as reviews mention special holiday services.

For a quieter experience, go at lunchtime or on a weekday, guests recommend lunch as less busy. Evenings and weekends are livelier and great for celebrations or date nights but can be noisy and busy, so book in advance. During holidays (e.g., Christmas) expect special menus and high demand.

Yes, guests frequently praise the team for accommodating special requests such as birthday celebrations (staff brought a cake and sang) and allergy needs. The restaurant is used to handling events and celebrations, so call ahead to arrange things like dietary requirements, birthday surprises or seating preferences to ensure the team can prepare.

Yes, many families dine here and guests note staff are friendly and attentive to children. Reviews mention parents bringing toddlers and older kids, kids enjoying the food and desserts, and successful family celebrations. For a smoother experience with younger children, consider an earlier seating and mention any needs when booking.

Yes, the restaurant has operated on public holidays (reviews reference Christmas Day service with a special set menu and holiday pricing). Because holiday hours and menus can differ, check with the restaurant when booking for specific public holidays.

Families are welcome, many guests dine with children and report attentive staff and family celebrations. Several families praised staff for being helpful with kids. Accessibility details (ramps, wheelchair seating) are not stated in the available information, so call ahead if you need specific accessible seating or accommodations.

Busiest: evenings, weekends and holidays (e.g., Christmas), guests frequently report lively, busy dinner services. Quietest: weekday lunches tend to be calmer and are recommended by several guests for a more relaxed experience. Book for weekend dinners if you want a guaranteed table.

For a quieter meal, choose a weekday (especially lunch). If you want the full celebratory, buzzy experience, go Friday or Saturday evening, those nights are livelier but busier. Either way, book in advance for weekend dinners or holiday dates.

Warm, lively and authentically Brazilian, guests highlight a Gaúcho vibe with friendly, smiling staff, upbeat but conversational music volume, and a cosy décor. It’s popular for celebrations and has a buzzy, sociable feel at dinner; lunchtime visits are calmer. Overall guests call it welcoming and fun.
