Steak is excellent and you will never leave hungry. Allot yourself enough time to enjoy everything. The salad bar, while great, is a trick to get you to eat less. Skip it...except the vegetable soup.
Creative Loafing CharlotteAugust 3, 2014Upscale Brazilian all-you-can-eat spot with a deep salad bar and lots of meat including beef, pork, chicken and lamb. Wine list features a variety of South American wines. Read more
Sarah ImamOctober 28, 2013The salad bar alone is stunning. Where else can you get beef carpaccio in a buffet?If you only want seafood then they have a seafood option but hey, why miss out on amazing steak when at a STEAKHOUSE
Alejandra 🌻March 1, 2016Best date place! Don't underestimate the salad bar, there are some delicious things there. Bacon-wrapped fillet mignon was incredible👌🏽👌🏽and to top it off, papaya ice cream!
Natie Nolasco MurielNovember 20, 2012Superb service and authentic Brazilian bbq. A little pricey, but if you go during Restaurant Week, it's only $30 per person. Well worth the money.
Lareina WelchFebruary 14, 2014We discovered it was a great place to bring the family, little ones included. Check out the full review here:
SteveJune 26, 2012Meatiest!!!!!! But if you like blue cheese on your steak, on the salad bar they have a Gorgonzola moose! Same great flavor but it doesn't roll off your steak!
Aline DeckerJanuary 23, 2013You MUST try the Brazil's signature cocktail -> CAIPIRINHA!! Lime, sugar, ice and Brazilian rum called cachaça. Happy Hour at the bar lounge. See you there!!! ;)
Beachmom01April 25, 2012Skip the salad bar and the hours d'oeuvres and and focus on the steak! Ask for Picanha! If you talk in Portuguese you will get the royal treatment!
Dj WebbNovember 15, 2014Some of the best leg of lamb and chops, I've ever tasted, you better have a big stomach,because they constantly coming with fresh meats
Cyro FreitasAugust 25, 2013This is one of the best Brazilian restaurants I've ever eaten. The passion fruit mousse is delicious!
Krystal FrancisSeptember 29, 2012Go, eat meat,eat salad, eat the amazing parm roll and for goodness sake go to the bar and get a caipirinha
Charlotte Beer GirlJanuary 19, 2014Wear very loose fitting clothing & elastic waistband! Prepare to spend 2-3 hrs here for maximum enjoyment of everything.
CLTdiningJune 16, 2011A meat lovers paradise! The salad and hot bar is amazing all by itself and the atmosphere is really cool. Great bar upstairs too.- Aline DeckerAugust 24, 2016Chima is now serving an express LUNCH starting at $15.50. From Monday to Friday 11:30am to 2:00pm
- Catherine HernandezSeptember 7, 2019This place is great for dates and other special occasions! Loved the variety!
Angelica MorenoFebruary 14, 2016Good, lots of food. Meats tend to be greasy (probably make you fill up faster).
Steven BakerApril 19, 2013Don't overlook the fish offerings (swordfish and salmon). The sauces they put on the fish are fantastic...
Ryan EdgeOctober 16, 2014The happy hour specials are a legitimate steal. I just wish they had more of them.
K. B.October 25, 2012Not too crazy about the salad bar but I LOVE the beef that is served! Go hungry and prepared to eat. Don't forget the bottle of chilled wine.- Creative Loafing CharlotteAugust 3, 2014The best of dishes are the Italian-styled salamis and the feijoada. Read more
Sophia MatthewsMay 27, 2013Try the Meat - I was a vegetarian for almost 10 years. I think I made up for it tonight.
BrendenJanuary 31, 2016Don't eat lunch before you eat dinner at Chima. The Top Sirloin is particularly delectable.
Chelsea SSeptember 23, 2012The mashed potatoes are to die for!!!! Amazing top sirloin. Looovvvveeeeee
LJanuary 31, 2011Come during Queen's Feast Restaurant Week. 3 courses for $ 30. Use open table to reserve
KeiKa AJanuary 2, 2012I don't care much for the meats.. it's a hit or miss, but I definitely like the open buffet!
Brad McClureJanuary 19, 2012Prepare for meat sweats followed by a meat comma. Eat your fiber ahead of time!
Tip the valets well. They run really far and do a good job.

Chima Steakhouse named after chimarrao, a traditional drink of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, that symbolizes hospitality and friendship-certainly lives up to its name. Legend has it, in South Brazil traditional gauchos (cowboys) would consume a diet that consisted almost entirely of beef...
