Minas Brazilian Steakhouse in Calgary

Great service always on the spot, food was very good and the place is nice we definitely we are going back.

Took some friends that have never been to MINAS, everyone had the All You Can Eat Rodizio, and had a great time, BBQ meats just kept coming no stop, so we had to tap out because we were so full. I recommend it to everyone and dont forget to check out all the BBQ cuts they serve on the menu, there is a great chance to tap out even before they serve everything. There was live entertainment this evening as well. All the servers are very friendly, and everything was great, given that it looked to be a busy night.

The service was extremely disappointing and not worth the price. The meats were rarely brought around, and at times, we waited 15 to 20 minutes without anyone coming by. When meat was served, it was often overcooked. No one would even show up for a long time.

We love this place!

We recently visited Mina s Steakhouse and, unfortunately, it was a very disappointing experience. From the moment we entered. The chairs and tables were very uncomfortable, and the overall atmosphere felt cold and uninviting. The food quality was incredibly poor and far from what you d expect , they only have 6 or 7 difference item not like the menu says , and the taste not good at all. To make matters worse, the customer service was subpar. The servers seemed unprofessional, often staring awkwardly while serving, making the entire experience uncomfortable. The plates and knives used were cheap and it s probably more than 5 years old , further detracting from the dining experience. For the price we paid, it felt like a complete waste of money. Dining here did not feel like being at a proper restaurant. We would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a pleasant or satisfying meal.

The service isn t good so I go to the other Brazilian place every time. Food is ok too, not as good as the other place downtown.

So much food! Such good food! Wheelchair accessibility: No issues for a wheelchair getting in and getting around. Food : 5/5 |

Julianna s service is the best !

Good options for meat lovers and vegetarians as well Vegetarian options: Plantain, mashed potatoes, salads, fried cassava, potato varieties, dry beans, white rice, fried rice, dessert, bread Food : 4/5 |

This is my second time going there and I loved it every time. Seriously, I have been to every Brazilian BBQ in Alberta and nothing compares to Minas. The other places dont serve the meat with the frequency this place does. There was a waiter/waitress coming with meat every 30 seconds. The salad bar and the desert bar is delicious. Next time you go there try the Brazilian donuts with dulce de leche....taste like mini churros . Also the staff is very pleasant, polite and helpful

Food is great. Nice selection of meats delivered table side by roving waiters along with the salad and dessert bar. Friendly service.

Best service and delicious food!! The place is amazing!!!

What a great experience. I had a great meal for two. THe staff were so friendly and attentive. I actually forgot my wallet and they called me within ten minutes to advise me. I quickly returned and all my belonging were safe and untouched. Well done xoxo

We celebrated our wedding reception at Minas today. Service was awesome. The crew was very helpful and accommodated our requests. Food was really really good. Very budget friensly. Our guests enjoyed the experience.

Finally tried Minas breakfast 3 weeks ago. Been seeing the sign outside my building for months. The experience was really great. Food tasted good and prepared hot and fresh. The cheese bread, as always, is my favorite. I enjoyed the sweet tapioca (banana and dulce de leche). There are also more options from the buffet bar. I love that my coffee cup is always full. It was a small espresso cup and let me tell you it never went below half cup. The service was impeccable. Julia (?) Is very friendly, appears when you need her too. She makes sure everything is good without being intrusive. At that time there were only 3 groups of customers. Ambience was great. Good for a slow Sunday morning to enjoy a hearty belreakfast. Got a neighborhood discount too because I live in the same building. Already planning to bring my sister and nephews for breakfast next time when they visit yyc.

I have been to this restaurant 3 times. I have enjoyed it every time. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is very nice, the staff is professional and friendly. The all you can eat is fairly priced for high quality steak. The buffet foods are delicious and they remind me of cuisine where I am from (neighbouring country to Brazil). I ve tried two of the Brazilian cocktails and both were delicious!

What a gem , it was an absolute delight, the experience itself, the amazing and friendly staff who just make the experience that much more exciting. Its 10 out of 10 and must go. Value is reasonable, and trust me, on this, for desert, try the pineapple and ask for a side of vanilla. Gelato, its to die for. Enjoy it to getter you will not be disappointed

It s been years since we have gone back to Minas and it did not disappoint. We decided to take our cousin here before he left back home to Brazil. Parking instructions were very straightforward and convenient. We were greeted by a very friendly host . The food , drinks and vibe was amazing! Very reasonable price. Not sure why I waited so long to come back . Definitely the best in the city !! Thanks Minas!

Well worthwhile experience. I will always be a returning customer.

Service is good and they came around with various meats that were quite tasty. The salad bar is very disappointing.. selection is limited and too much of the same with very few items to choose from.

Our second time at Minas. We had gone a year or two before the plandemic and it was excellent. This time was the same. Would definitely recommend! Parking: It depends on when you get there, but the parking is limited on the street. It is free after 18:00, Monday to Saturday. There is a parking lot about a block away, but it is Impark and they are a horrible company.

Amazing. Must try this is Calgary

My husband and I came here for the first time to celebrate our anniversary on Sunday. The menu was tantalising enough, but we ended up ordering MISTÃO NA TABUA with sides like Brazilian rice, fried sweet plantain, and potato fries. The mistao is supposed to be just for 2 people, but I feel it could feed 3, especially with the sides and drinks added. We had enough to take home. Lovely place, although I think they lack 1 little thing I cant put my finger on (for the atmosphere). It was a good outing for us overall. Vegetarian options: Available Kid-friendliness: Yes. They have provisions for kids.

Was good to have a little taste from my contry! The food was good and they were very kind and helpfull Dietary restrictions: They let me know if was okay to have any cross contact with my food since Im alergic to sea food, and i was pretty glad

The all you can eat option was unreal. So many delicious cuts of well seasoned juicy meat. Very nice sides bar to complement the meal. Friendly staff, Cozy atmosphere. Will definitely be back here.

Service was spectacular! My water was never empty and the servers made sure you had everything you wanted promptly. The food was so good you wanted to eat more than your stomach allowed.

Best Brazilian rodizio in the city, the variety and flavour is amazing!

This place exceeded my expectations! And how camel you complain about a place that brings a sword of meat to you every few minutes! First time trying a chicken heart, and was surprised at how good it was lolStaff was very friendly, my water was always topped right up and felt very comfortable and welcome.Thanks for the great supper guys!

The Brazilian food was absolutely delicious! Every dish was bursting with authentic flavors, and the Brazilian snacks were simply amazing. The atmosphere was warm and familiar, making it feel like a home away from home. Highly recommended!

Went for lunch Rozidio, but the meat came out slow and I was not as full as I wanted to by the end of the meal but I had to leave for other commitments. Otherwise, food is good.

Well it was expecting a good buffet.. it was a poor one.. I want for lunch. They had no dessert options.. just bread pudding and watermelon.. but in general.. I want for the good and it was a waste of money

I am a super Brazil Bbq fan. I have been to Bolero and Pampa but first time here. This is the worst one. We wait for 30mins for the meat to come and the service was bad. Meat was so salty and dry, and hard to bite. I suggest go to bolero. They even charge the fountain soft drinks for 4.5$ that s unbelievable.

really good food and lovely staff.

Simply delicious. Sadly a buy pricey but under stable for all you can eat settings, except you cant get value unless youre starving and at 65 I really wasnt able to get close to value. Still tasty.

Had a great time with the team. Everyone was definitely full. Picanha is trully thr queen of all steaks.

Amazing place. That is my familys go-to restaurant for any celebration or when we like to satisfy any BBQ cravings. Great food, great service, and friendly staff. Always a treat Food : 5/5

Bring your appetite. Great hot sauce upon request. Parking: Round the building - downtown parking. Food : 4/5 |

Just like any rodízio outside of Brazil or Portugal...

Enjoyed the buffet table very much. Very filling.

Since someone from the restaurant answered my previous review I gave the place the benefit of the doubt and revisited the place during a solo business tripp to amazing Calgary. Unfortunately its the same story again. I swear, had I thrown the pork butt in the wall it would have turned into a puff of dust. I thought it was impossible to dry out a pork butt like that, but they succeeded, somehow! Eventually I got fed up and asked if they served anything other than well or medium well. I eventually got a piece of flank steak that was actually decently cooked, just lacked salt. By that time is was completely fed up, disappointed and just stopped eating even I could eat more. Ordered a coffee and asked for the check. Hope the Flames game tonight is better than the food at this place. It cant be that difficult. And cooking picanha medium well is blasphemy! Lets put it like this, it wont be third times the charm..... My original review below. Had high hopes for this considering the reviews. Looking forward to some nice steak when on a business trip to Calgary. Sad to say both me and my colleague was very disappointed. All the beef except one cut was murdered by being extremely well done and no options for different cook levels. Even the picanha was well done and dry. That has to he herrasy in a Brazilian steakhouse. The pineapple was the best part which says a lot.

At the beginning everything was OK though the meat was not taste good, but the part I would like to complain is that the waiter asked me if I wanted pineapple, I said yes, and then he cut the pineapple core that no one wanted for me! At that time, there were 2 fresh grilled pineapple on the plate, but he didnt even ask me if I wanted the freshly grilled part, and just went to the next table directly. Why do you cut the HARDEST part of the pineapple for customers? You cant even stick a fork in this part, is it really edible? Me and my friends feel very bad about this dinner. The owner want to save money, so they serve the greasy food and the cheapest ingredients first, such as grilled cheese and grilled chicken legs. They often serve high-quality food slowly or simply do not serve it, such as Top Sirloin Cap and Garlic Steak (4 people ate 1 garlic steak ). I suggest anyone who wants to have a good meal DO NOT COME HERE

Stopped in for Sunday brunch after a good workout doing the stairs by the Calgary Curling Club. No reservation, we were seated immediately and man, what phenomenal service from there. Add great food and you understand why this place is a gem and is busy.

Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend if you re in downtown Calgary!

Rich good atmosphere

This site is wonderful! The place is beautiful, the service is wonderful, and the food, without words!!! We had a coffee, which is delicious! a place to repeat, without a doubt!!!

We have been frequenting Minas for several years, though it had tapered off recently due to general finances. Last night we had a reservation to celebrate my husbands birthday. We arranged a babysitter for over night so we could enjoy a nice, expensive dinner date without our 5 year old. We arrived a bit early, maybe 15 minutes. The hostess gave us a choice between two tables and we selected one, sat down, and got situated. We went to the buffet for plates and some sides, then flipped our card to green and started receiving meat from the gauchos. As we were cutting into our first pieces of meat, the hostess approached our table. It turns out there was a larger party coming in and she didnt realize they needed our table. She asked if it was okay for us to move (we didnt actually have a choice) and then said she would help us move our plates to the new table. She grabbed a tray, took our plates and walked away to the kitchen while telling us we could get new plates. We stood in the middle of the restaurant not knowing which table we were supposed to move to, and wondering why our food was taken away. She returned telling us which table to go to like we should have already known, and then disappeared. The server brought us water and apologized for the hassle, then we got new plates and waited. And waited. And waited. It was a long time before the gauchos came around again, and the items we had on our original plates never actually came around a second time before we left the restaurant. While waiting for meats to come around, our server came to check on us and asked if we wanted something in particular. We said we were waiting for what came, and she then reminded us that we can visit the buffet upon noticing our clean plates. We already did the buffet, we were done with the sides and felt she was speaking down to us. I also felt because we were a small table in the corner that we saw less selection than normal because the gauchos ran out of most items before they got to our table, and they didnt then start where they left off to ensure all patrons were seeing the full variety. The server did ask a couple of times if we wanted anything in particular, but we didnt. We wanted to enjoy things as they came. Ive worked in restaurants before, I tried very hard not to let the hostesses error ruin our meal, as did my husband, as we realize it was a bit of a one-off situation, but I didnt feel it was handled appropriately. If we hadnt started our dinner and were asked to move it would have been no problem, but we had started, and she took away food we were literally about to eat when she had us change tables. Im glad this wasnt our first time visiting, but Im 99% sure it will have been our last. Oh, and to add insult to injury, our original table didnt even have a party sat at it until about 5 minutes before the server brought us our bill.

Went for lunch, and we did the rodizio option for $35. Selections were good, and food tasted decent. The downside for me was that the pinto beans tasted two salty and not fully cooked. Tasted like it came out of a can. Properly cooked and tasty beans is very basic for Brazilian food, as we eat almost every day, so for me that was a fail. Everything else was good.

Excellent. The food is exquisite and the service is exceptional. Thank you.

We were in a similar restaurant in Cancun and this restaurant was delicious both the buffet food and the meat on the skewers was second to none, but here everything is very limited, both the buffet food and the meat. Both in taste and in terms of choice. For this money you can visit more interesting places.

Best churrasco I had in Canada. Good cut selection and great customer service. Definitely recommend it

Celebrated my birthday there with friends. Awesome meal. Great buffet. Impeccable friendly service. It was an excellent dining experience.

Loved it, amazing

Fantastic place! Awesome atmosphere and very very good food! Staff were fantastic, very polite people and very very kind! Everyone and everything was fenomenal! I saw a customer being un-polite with a supervisor there, he was doing his best and the customer said a bad word to him because he was not speaking in Portuguese, as far as I know in Canada we speak in english or french. He managed the situation so well that deserves a round of applause. I loved being there and will be back more times and hopefully more often too. The most authentic brazilian flavour and style that I had tasted in such a long time. Tasted like home to me. Cheers to all Minas Brazilian Steakhouse team, you guys are rockstars!! Kid-friendliness: My baby was with us and the team handled my family really well. High chair and well located table, to make our lives easy.

Your staff needs more training to handle misunderstandings and to become less judgmental- I had a horrible experience because your staff jumped into the wrong conclusions. Looking back, I know that the person in charge unfairly misjudged me, and justified himself by labelling me of ill intent. Despite my clarification and numerous apologies, he behaved disrespectful and arrogant , which I really did not appreciate.

Always a great spot when you re hungry.

Nice food and best service

Staff was super friendly and helpful! Feijoada and coconut dessert were delicious!

Been coming here for years, and will for years to come. Excellent selection of delicious meats and the buffet style sides and desserts are just excellent. Cannot recommend enough!!

Food was amazing, really recommend it. There was a little mistake (understandable) from a new server, but the management reached me afterwards (should have been before we left, thats why I am not rating 5) and it was all sorted out in the end. I definitely recommend and will be back if I have the chance.

I absolutely love this place! The atmosphere is so welcoming, and the food is simply amazing. Every dish Ive tried has been delicious. I cant get enough!

I went alongside with some friends to catch up and Minas Brazilian Steakhouse was such a great place to eat and chat! It was my first time here. We opted for the Rodizio where it is all you can eat as there is a buffet alongside some meat options that is ayce as well that comes to your table from time to time if you want a slice or piece~ The best one among the meat items I enjoyed was the spicy sausage~ It had the right amount of spice/heat which was super appetizing. Make sure to bring your family and friends to this place~ Its worth the price!

Tasty food & excellent table service

We had heard mixed reviews from Mina s but decided to give it a try. It was an absolute hit. We brought friends from out of town and upon hearing this they surprised us with a dessert for them decorated with a big welcome to Calgary . Food was delicious, the meat just kept coming and coming and the buffet had really yummy option. Big plus that they are also offering Costa Rican dishes for breakfast. A huge hit for us. We will be back!

Every time I come here it s always an amazing experience ^^ Everyone here is so friendly, the sides are always delicious I always love coming here with family and friends! Thank you for always making it a memorable experience. Food : 5/5

Pretty good

We are a Colombian family now living in Calgary, Canada. Learning and getting to know someone told us about this place and it really is the GREATEST, I love food with a Latin flavor and especially meat, I had never tried Brazilian seasoning but we have been fascinated, also adding that the place is beautiful, orderly, organized , clean and not to mention the staff...the best, they are friendly, helpful, attentive, all this makes one definitely have a fabulous experience! I recommend them 100/100, you will absolutely be fascinated like us.

A great service and a perfect food

Got rodizio (google it!) - highly recommend. Take care to not take too much food from the buffet (but it s hard, because they are awesome) - save yourself for the grilled meats as they arrive table side. The picanha was grilled to perfection, make sure you wait for that skewer to arrive. Get wine with dinner, it will help you with the rich foods. Parking: Free parking in below grade garage. Details of how to get in will come with your reservation.

Love this place the the meat selection was amazing the atmosphere was amazing. Its a must when in Calgary

stopped for an iced latte when going to the river, delicious! can t wait to come and try the food

Dietary restrictions: Lots of Gluten free options, just ask staff and they re happy to help Food

It was my least favorite Brazilian steakhouse. They never came around with all the meats advertised. The meats were ok (fatty) and not seasoned very well. The atmosphere is more like a dinner with a small bar. I didnt get my second drink till I was done eating. This is not comparable to a Fogo De Chao so if thats what you are looking for you will be disappointed. Staff was nice. Just not attentive. Unfortunately I would not go back here.

The best taste of Brazilian in Calgary!

Great all you can eat Brazilian style meat fest, salad bar and more. A tad on the pricy side but great selection of meat and excellent service

First time trying Brazilian experience and not what I expected considering reviews and photos. Food was very bland, my steak was burnt in some.spots and not evenly cook, mash potatoes was awesome, teaser came with some sort of peas or something on it. Just keep it a simple teaser and dont just put dressing on the top. Salmon was also bland,very nice service just not that great at checking up on your table. Wasnt a fan a numerous service people sticking their butts close to out table to cut meat for the tables beside us. Either order to your table on a plate or use the buffet. Please dont mix both its kinda of distracting and annoying. Price point over priced. But what restaurant isnt these days. Steak meal and salmon meal with 4 of the smallest glasses of wine $120. Will not be going back or recommend. No photos personally think its rude. Atmosphere is more like bar felt a little weird with little kids there and completely felt over casually dressed

We tried the breakfast during the weekend and it was incredible! A great variety of food, salads, fruits, savoury and sweet options! Everything was well done, and the staff were attentive and welcoming.

This was my first time at Minas Brazilian steakhouse, and definitely won t be my last~~ Really exceeded my expectations in terms of service and quality of food. Meats were cooked and seasoned well, mostly medium rare. Servers were also very kind, and they came around often when serving meat. I thought the variety of sides were quite good too, lots of different carbs and fried items to try - cheese bread was my over all fav There was a questionable sushi bar, but the salmon was good lol They also have an assortment of drinks, but didn t get to try will try next time I had a very good experience at Mina s, thank you to the staffs that helped us. ( )

I LOVE THIS PLACE, AMO ESTE LUGAR, the atmosphere is amazing, the gauchos super friendly and my new friends off the hook!!!! BEST BRAZILIAN STEAKHOUSE FROM THE DELICIOUS SALAD BAR TO THE MUSHROOM SAUCE AMD WORDS CANNOT EXPLAIN HOW GOOD THIS IS - EL CHEFE CERTIFIED

The restaurant staff are very polite and nice. I cant say that this is the most delicious meat in my life, the taste is normal. Tips are immediately included in the bill, so be prepared, whether you like it or not, tips are mandatory. For such food it is a bit expensive, as for me. I will not recommend it to my friends and I myself will not come back here.

Delicious food and great service!

I am not Brazilian, but I loved the restaurant, the meat was very juicy and above all I liked the food and dessert bar with a lot of variety for all tastes

Could not imagine getting better service. Waiting staff is friendly and always come with a smile! 10/10 will be recommending to my friends and family, this place is incredible!

This is a must eat-at in Calgary. Atmosphere was absolutely beautiful service was on point all staff were extremely friendly and sociable. I am 100% coming back here and inviting friends. And the cool aspect of having meat brought to your table makes you feel like apart of the dining experience so much more. 100/100 I m coming back and so should you

Fantastic food, fantastic service!!

Amazing service!!!! Marlon is an exceptional host. Me and my wife loved the place. Definitely coming back (I will give them more stars if I could)

Really dark and loud atmosphere, unfriendly staff and food ended up making me feel sick. The price/quantity ratio is not the best. There is certainly a lot of improvements that this restaurant might need.

Horrible customer service.i went there to pick up my food worth almost $100.00.upon arrival.i got interrogated as if I was there to claim a free food. unfriendly environment and that was my first time ordering from that Minas restaurant.never going there again.

I recently hosted a surprise birthday party for my husband at Minas, and it was an unforgettable experience! The service was incredible, the food was delicious, and the staff were extremely attentive and kind. They went above and beyond to make the day special. Highly recommend this place for any special occasion!

Best steak ever. I was full but staff kept asking to try more. Love the staff. Will visit again

Great food the people are nice and more people should come here

First experience with Brazilian food. It was fabulous. Would return here next time we are in Calgary!!!

The best Brazilian restaurant in Calgary!!!

Delicious food.

What a great experience! Servers were friendly, knowledgeable and took very good care of us. We enjoyed the Rodizio and buffet line. The meats that came to the table were top notch, and we did not get the sense at all like they were trying to just use up the cheaper cuts of meat. The picanha, sirloin, lamb, bacon wrapped chicken and more was delicious!

Sitting at Latino Fest Olympic Plaza wow Brazilian barbecue kick my butt...the smell of bbq pulled my bike right over...eryone should come and try this authentic style food

It is not worth paying such a high price.The worst meat. Very fatty meat impossible to swallow.

This Latin restaurant is one of the best i ve ever been by far!!!! Just quite pricey , well behaved and managed. Happy hours is the best time.

Always a great time at Minas!

Top quality authentic Brazilian buffet - 2 words : meat galore! On top of that there s a warm food section with salads and soup! The staff were fantastic and attentive and every thing in the restaurant is top notched! Do not miss this place

Wonderful breakfast! We went with our 3 and 5 years old and had a great experience! Lots of options, very authentic and delicious Brazilian breakfast! Highly recommend!

We ordered mistão na tábua medium steak and it was burnt. We ate what was least burnt, but the chicken was impossible. It was expensive for low quality.

I had a fantastic all-you-can-eat breakfast at Minas Brazilian Steak House. The variety of Brazilian and Latin food was delicious, especially pão de queijo, tapioca, and desserts. The owner, from Minas Gerais, has truly brought the regions renowned culinary flavors to life. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Highly recommend!

Everything thing was fantastic. The one thing that made me mad was Ive never been to one of these restaurants so we were excited . We get there and our waiter explained how it all worked. So we ate and had a great time. We never saw a menuor anything on prices. So when I got a over $300 bill I was shocked. It would have been easier if I knew it was coming instead of sticker shock. Other then that we loved the experience and we will go back just more prepared for the price next time

Food was good but I felt like they didn t come around much with the meat options, it could ve been because they were busy tho.

I went to this buffet with my family for dinner and the pros and cons of this buffet is that the pro, they have really good customer service, their friendly and would make sure you have/get everything you need for the night. But the con is that food option is quite limited, no good dessert options, overpriced and tasteless for the price of over $300. And finally we found 4 hair strands on the steak they gave us.

Best Brazilian restaurant in Canada! It would be even considered a very good one in Brazil as well. We ate the rodizio option (all you can eat BBQ), and were not disappointed. The meat was delicious, there were a lot of options, and the buffet was great as well. It had feijoada, farofa, roasted banana, cheese bread, fried rain droplets, guava jam and more. Not only is great, but the price is fair. Between Tuesday and Thursday you can have it for $35 if you go during lunch time. The only downside of going on lunch is that you wont get coalho cheese, shrimp, and another kind of meat, but you would still get all the other options including picanha. On those days the dinner is $50, in case you want to have the full experience. They also have brazilian drinks and sodas, as well as people from Brazil there. So you will for sure feel like you are having a full high quality brazilian experience.

We came for the Brazilian breakfast and it was wonderful! Best Brazilian coffee, pão de queijo and tapioca ever! Juliana was amazing with all our table! Super attentive, kind and polite! Will be back for sure!

Amazing food and friendly staff. I strongly recommend MINAS.

Food are great, staffs are accommodating and service are awesome!

Amazing place for food

This was my first time trying this place and I would definitely come back! We ordered meal for 5 from the a la carte menu and it came with a lot of variety. The ayce is on the pricier side and the service was alright :)

I just finished dinner here and wow, the food was amazing and the service was somehow even better. We had the all you can eat table side rodizio service. They have this triangle that you flip (red and green side) to signal when to bring food and when you need a break. At first, I was concerned it wouldn t get much use and they wouldn t come around as often with the meats, but they were fast! The live piano music kicked it up a notch as well. He was super into the music and you can tell he loves what he does. It really elevated the experience. They were also training new servers, and they all did exceptionally! The highlight honestly was really just how happy and welcoming all members of staff were, creating a fantastic experience. Thank you!

Excellent service, awesome food and music

Amazing breakfast experience!

Had a very good experience here. A lot better than the similiar restaurant in downtown. Great food, ambiance and love the music they play.

We were celebrating my niece s birthday last night at Mina s Restaurant. The food was great and the service was fantastic. We found the staff to be extremely helpful and friendly Thanks again for a wonderful experience

Unfortunately I can only give 5 stars but if possible, I would give a 100

A little piece of Brazil in Canada. Wonderful! We always go. Great service from everyone, especially Thai and Gui. I recommend! Kid-friendliness: Family

The food is great, the taste is really good, but poor customer service . I went with my boyfriend for valentines day and we were very impressed with everything. So i decided it was a great idea to go for his birthday The people who serve the meat kept ignoring out table, we kept seeing them pass our table amd serve other tables and felt it was on purpose!!! The only meat we received from all the meat options was 2 different types! The steak and some sausage we pretty much ate the food at the buffet without the meat so what i paid for was overly proced due to the bad food service!!!! When we gave them feedback and told how upset we were with the servers missing our table, they did not offer any sort of compensation, just said So sorry and that was it. Definitely over paid our food bill !!!! Very upset with the customer service and upset we will not be going back or recommending to family and friends. Considering the food is good..

Great dinner place in Calgary. Nice atmosphere and good decorations. The food is great either alacart or buffet but the buffet is the most valuable for me. Also very delightful with the service. Must visit restaurant in Calgary.

Minas is awesome! We had them for a corporate lunch and they slayed! The food was great and the service from ordering to delivery was smooth. Overall, we had a great time because of the good food. We will for sure order again. I will definitely recommend this to everyone! Food

Top class place I totally enjoyed it here can t wait to visit again

Very pricey

Great experience, delicious food, affordable prices. We enjoyed it so much, thank you

Phenomenal meal The top sirloin was incredible! Looking forward to coming back.

Amazing customer service and delicious food. Last Sunday I ordered lunch via pick up from Minas for my family and as my stepfather went to pick it up, he was told by the staff he needed to have a picture of my id. When he called asking me for this, I was very distracted caring for my baby, hosting my family and was confused as I didnt understand why this was now needed since we had ordered pick up from them before. Soon I talked to a staff at the restaurant named Marlon and he very professionally explained why the restaurant had to implement this due to many ongoing scams through credit cards. Bottom line, I really appreciate him taking the time to talk to a customer and so calmly explain and apologize for the inconvenience. I know being in the customer service industry is no easy task and I wanted to recognize his efforts. I have been a long time customer at Minas and I always loved the atmosphere, food, service and I am very happy to keep going there and ordering take out from them.

The buffet was amazing, but all the meat was so salty, it will kill you if you have hypertension.

We went to Minas for Mother s Day brunch. The air conditioner was set way too low, we were freezing cold from start to finish. Music was loud. The buffet hot food tasted so-so, salads and fruits were fresh, some of the meat was very salty, bacon wrapped chicken was overcooked. When we got the bill, we were told that instead of $49.99 for a Sunday brunch, they charged us $60 each. Nobody has informed us that they ve raised their price for Mother s Day, until it s time to pay. I asked the server, I was told that they announced it on social media. For people who don t have social media or don t follow them on social media, there s no way of knowing this price increase. Given the poor service, mediocre quality of food, and inflated price that they did not inform us about until the bill came, we felt like we were being ripped off. We won t be going back.

We went to Minas and had the experience of brazillian all you can meat experience. They had lot of good mix of sides from savory to sweet. Once we sat down meat options started coming one after the other. loved the atmosphere with music and dancers to entertain during dinner time. Highly recommend for special occasions

The rodizio was good. I ve tried boleros, pampas, and now Mina s. I do think bolero s still holds a special place in my heart in terms of their meats and the way they prepare their pineapple. That being said, the waiters and waitresses were lovely. They filled our waters constantly. Great service. Food was pretty good. I enjoyed it. Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs. Might be tight around the tables but certainly doable.

AYCE at the highest quality. Everything was great, especially the prime rib and chicken hearts.

Delicious!

Love this place; def one of the best steakhouses in Calgary

My husband and I went to Minas for our anniversary celebration. The place was nice and clean and the salad bar is really great. They have you sanitize your hands every time you go and serve yourself from It, which I thought was great. The selection of meat is great and they are all well seasoned. The only things I didn t like is that if you get a table far away from the kitchen it takes a little while for the swordsmen bring some meat to your table - we didn t have to ask but there was a couple of minutes were we didn t have any meat on our plates. Another thing that was weird is that the only hot sauce they have is Franks Buffalo; I wish they had had more selections for hot sauces. My husband mentioned that the Caesar was great and made the food more flavourful. I also liked that they have a little Brazilian market. Overall a great experience. I would recommend.

Today I went with my friend Juan who is Peruvian and I am Venezuelan to eat at Minas Brazilian restaurant. The food was great, the flavours were perfect and the desserts were delicious, but the one who made our visit even better was Johny who was gentle, very professional and assisted us with all our requirements with an excellent attitude. For me, the way I am treated in a restaurant is more valuable than the food itself, BUT IN THIS CASE BOTH WERE GREAT. 100% recommended.

Attendant is very good!!! Great food, great atmosphere and great service!

Absolutely amazing.

Excellent staff and food. Very pleasant experience. Will eat here again if in the area. Food : 5/5

Went there with my fiancée,Food was great, the problem is the service, my glass was empty the whole time we were there, they finally refilled it after we got the desert was ready to go, no one checked on us till the last 5 minutes, the only time was that we got food offered at our table from cooks but nothing else, food was exceptional but service wise it was the worst i have had in my life

Love it, everything was delicious

Great food, a bit out of the way but worth it. Great service as well.

A friend and colleague of mine is from Brazil and we were talking about a great place to eat and he recommended Minas directly. We went for a late lunch and the food and service was fantastic. Its a very special place that serves food that is top notch. Im definitely going back.

This place was very good! Tai was our waiter and he did a superb job on explaining everything to us! If we make it back to Calgary, we will most definitely stop again.

Having been to all four, Minas is definitely the best Brazilian steakhouse in Calgary. Offers the best buffet, and the meat cuts are prepared the best as well, always juicy and flavourful. They also include chicken hearts on the rodízio. Others are better at one thing or another - Bolero has the best atmosphere, Pampa has the best pão de queijo - but none are as complete as Minas. Definitely recommended. Thank you Minas team.

Ordered thru Uber eats. Caesar salad $14.50 for literally 3 croutons and 5 pieces of lettuce. Rice container was half filled and cold. Sweet potato fries were cold and soggy. Ordered here for years but this was unacceptable.

Amazing food and service!

Quite exciting to visit this place with my name on it! Almost 20 varieties of BBQ served!

Amazing!!!!

Best Brazilian steakhouse in Calgary; the price is very reasonable compared to the other steakhouses, the service is great and the meat (especially the lamb) is amazing. Highly recommend

Service was okay, but slow. The pork shoulder was sub-par but the lamb and tri-tip was delicious. The wine list was very disappointing, you should either bring your own or order an alternative.

Minas used to be my favourite out of all the Brazilian restaurants in Calgary. Great buffet, yummy meat etc.. After this Sunday visit I was disappointed. Buffet was pretty lame, desserts almost not existent. Meat very mediocre and service quiet slow.

Nice place,i stayed there 3 hours and watch soccer) Everything was amazing . But please try to di wifi guys) Please Food : 5/5 |

Food was amazing, staff were really friendly. Would definitely come back again. Would recommend fasting the whole day so you can try everything

Came for the YYC EXP menu. Everything tasted amazing. The flavors popped so well. Need to fit this place into the regular rotation.

100/100 excellent place, food and people! We go there very often, we love the Rodizio ! 100%satifaction guaranteed !

First time at Mina s in February/2024 while visiting Calgary. Didn t eat the salad bars , just ate meat. The meats were delicious, 4* because a bit heavy on salt so drank lots of water which filled us up too soon. The staffs were really nice but 4* for service because the waitress handed us the bill when we were still eating, felt like she was rushing us or maybe she was new and lacked customer service. The special promotion was a delightful surprise so we used the discount $ for a big tip to compensate for the excellent price. I recommend Minas!

This place was excellent!! The service, the food..everything was amazing. Went for a bday celebration and it turned out great!
