Barbacoa Grill Aoyama

With the original Barbacoa Grill actually located in Sao Paulo, Brazil (and some of the staff from the original branch even coming over here to work in Tokyo), this is the real deal. The authentic churrascaria restaurant serves chunky, crispy, barbecued meat (about 17 varieties) as part of an all-you-can-eat buffet that includes a fresh veg and salad bar - all for ¥4,800. Pair your meal with a refreshing caipirinha cocktail and enjoy the spontaneous salsa show that adds to the already festive atmosphere. Reservations are a must, but if you can't get a table at this popular branch, you can also try their Marunouchi branch or the brand-new site in Shibuya.
