Bullvino's Churrascaria St. Paul

I can't stop thinking about this place, it's just that good! We came for Restaurant Week which is an absolute steal for what you get. The service was spot on, the salad bar fresh, and the meats upon arrival too hot to eat. The drinks were tasty and in comparison to other restaurants were reasonably priced. I can't wait to go back!

I gave this experience 2 stars not because of the food, but because of our service. We were there to celebrate my husbands birthday. The server did not explain how the menu worked. He just assumed that we were all going to order the meat option. We have 2 kids that don't eat meat, and wanted them to just have the salad ber. When we ordered our dinner we said there would be 3 meat dinners and 2 salad bars for our kids. He questioned us about our 2 kids not eating the meat dinner. It was beyond weird. Our server asked us our kids ages and we told them. After we told him he looked at the kids and asked them how old they were. I was shocked. He came back 3 times to question us on the ages of our kids again. It was extremly rude. Not only did he come back 3 times to ask, but he sent 2 more people to ask. It felt like an interrogation. We felt so uncomfortable. Not to mention that our total bill was almost $400.00. I don't think we will ever go back because of how uncomfortable we felt. The food was good, however we did not get offered as many meats that were listed. Overall it was not a great experience. We will not go back.

Went to dinner last night for restaurant week however we all decided to do the top shelf option which is the reg all you can eat price. Everything was good, how ever because of it being restaurant week and a weekend, it was super busy. We first was sat at the round table right as you enter and in the walk way. It was awkward being there, sat right as there’s traffic in and out and servers walking through. Congested and people all around you. So we asked to be moved. Our server Joaquin was top tier!! He explained everything and he checked to see if we could move. He came back and said he found another table for us. When we got to the other table he explained we could upgrade to top shelf meats or do the restaurant week pricing and not get the 4 bottom options cuts of meat. Again, we all upgraded. Right as he was explaining everything the rest of the party arrived, two more. So there was a total of five of us. Once he took our drink orders and placed them in, he went back to his section. Let’s just say our table had no idea who our server was the whole time sitting there until we had to pay. It was annoying bc I had to keep asking for cheese bread, they brought it once and never came around again. When I asked to whom ever came over to bringing the meats or asked how things were, they would say yes. 30 mins later is when I asked a 3rd time and got them shortly after. Some of the cuts of meats never made it to our table, like the pork ribs and some of the sirloins. We didn’t get to try the cheese with honey either. Before we left we had to request for the grilled pineapple because again it never made it around to our table. My favorite cut of meat tonight would have been the garlic beef, tenderloin, and ribeye. I had the cap of the ribeye!! My favorite part. Also I enjoyed the Alfredo at the hot food section of the bar a lot. I went back for seconds however when I went to get a small week the second time, I wasn’t as good as the first time. I’m guessing they refilled it bc that time it didn’t taste a flavorful as the first time. Three of us ordered drinks, I enjoyed the spicy margarita but the house drink, Caipirinha was very bitter. I couldn’t drink it because of the bitterness from the limes. I did force myself to drink it because I’m paying for it. Will not order again. Overall experience, everything was good. I wouldn’t come back during restaurant week or peak hours. I only wished our server at the new section where we got moved would have came to our table and introduced himself and took care of us. Like I mentioned before, none of us knew who our server was, for a minute there we were still waiting for Joaquin. Lol. But I had to think about that we moved sections and he was no longer our server. Although we didn’t know our server and who did serve us, we still all tipped our part and I myself walked over to Joaquin and gave him a tip myself for being so awesome, attentive, and engaging. One of the best servers I’ve had at a Brazilian steakhouse. Hoping to go back and sit in Joaquin’s section. I know he will definitely take care of us and be attentive.

This was a great dining experience. I went for a friend's birthday and everything was super flavorful. Some of the food was either over cooked or cooked well-done. I wish I would have known and I wouldn't have got it. But they will make you requests. All in all I will be back again!! Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100
