Pampas Grill in Culver City - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Nice place to visit and really good food and service its wasn't really busy today I like the food

It's a beef buffet. Expensive but high quality well cooked & perfectly seasoned meats. Lots of salads choices, sides & full dishes, and of course the grand finale in the queue, 10 different meat types/styles to mix & match with. It's all weighed at the end so you can get as much or as little as you want. The meats are superb. I had the tri tip, sirloin, and spicy chicken. The sides were semi cold from waiting in the line because i came during the lunch rush. But they were good. I had mash potatoes, rice & beans, and plantains for dessert. I'd definitely come again before or after the lunch crowd.

Great vibe with reasonable price for food!

I am Japanese and particular about my taste in food. I think I'll only eat out at this store in L.A again.

Yummmmmy! Easy atmosphere, self serve! Basically delish!!!

Such yummy food and great ambiance!

You have to try it, there is simply no other way. And while you're at it, you'll notice that the food at Pampas Grill beats that of many exclusive restaurants. You pay by weight, there is a selection of different salads and other side dishes, cooked bananas, bread/baguette, etc. The meat comes straight from the spit, and here too you can choose between different variations. I paid $19 for a well-filled plate, my husband came out with $16. We were both fed up. Immediately in front of it there are small seating areas, everything is neat and nicely designed.

Always give the best service!,They were so accommodating!

The food is delicious and fresh, their cassava bread is incredible

I love the stakes from here specially picanha well done and spicy chicken with a red wine... That's right they have a bar with happy hours every day..

I HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE TODAY. I CAME IN ,AND I SAW THERE WAS A BIG LINE. I ASK FOR HELP, BECAUSE I HAVE PROBLEMS WITH MY KNEES, SO I USE CAN, AND I COULD NOT STAN FOR A LONG TIME.I TOLD THE BUSSER,LEONARDO,TO ASK THE MANAGER IF SHE CAN HELP ME PASSING ME AHEAD. HE WENT, AND CAME BACK, AND SAID SHE SAID NO. THEN I ASK HER,(SAMIA) , SHE SAID , NO ONE TOLD ME ANYTHING. THEN APPEARED JOAO, WHO SAID IT'S A MANAGER TOO, AND SAID, I SAID NO.THAK GOD AN AMERICAN MEN TAKE ME TO THE FRONT, AND OTHER VERY NICE CUSTOMER HELP ME TO TAKE MY FOOD.THE CONCLUSION OF ALL THIS IS THAT I FEEL DISCRIMINATED, BECAUSE MY DISABILITIES. MAY BE THIS PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT. IS TOO MUCH TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, I'M A REGULAR CUSTOMER. THIS HAPPENED ON 3857 OVERLAND AVE. CULVER CITY.

The food was good, if your looking for meat go heavy and minimize the rest!

Friendly staff priced resonably even at per pound. Meats were amazing.

The best Brazilian Food in the USA!!!! I loved all meats 😋😋😋😋

The food is amazing but $24 a pound for meet I got to tell you it's just priced out of the my budget there wasn't a line there wasn't many people there that was a good part

Nice authentic Brazilian food! Catfish, sirloin cap, sausage and more! !Great ambiance, lots of space, lots of yummy options to choose from! Sangria is delicious! Super recommended and will come again!

Been going to this place for the last 10 years Very gpod food..worth every penny..Very consistence with the taste..Highly recommended...You wont be dissapointed,..

Simple and all you can eat food. I was waking for more.

Friendly workers , fresh food, and most importantly, customers have to wear gloves to serve themselves at the buffet ( brilliant idea). I bet hundreds of cases of food poisoning were avoided, thanks to that measure. Thank-you. Amazing place.Definetly recommend

Simple food but great quality, the staff is very friendly.

Too expensive for what it is and service is meh.

It’s not AYCE, but they have indoor and “outdoor” seating, a bar, and everything is self serve except for the meat of course. The all the meat was cooked and seasoned to perfection especially the tri tip Cheese bread is a 0/10

Visiting from Chicago, this place is legit as it comes…. Amazing Brazilian food!

I came here with other people, all of whom eat meat. It has a nice selection of both neat and non neat items,but is definitely geared to meat eaters. Food stars rating by the meat eaters. As a vegetarian, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of salads, rice, potatoes, pasta, fruit, and veg available. But there is no main vegetarian meal protein / option. It's all buffet style, serve yourself. There's no signage to explain that it's cheaper to make a sides plate and a meat plate separately. Hence the stars off service. Despite my friend giving this place 4/5 food stars, he suggested we come again soon.

The food is delicious, healthy, and affordable.

Horrible way of treating clients from manager Samie ( or something like it) she was very disrespectful in the way to treat clients instead of giving you the food she try to teach you whats the roght way to call your cooking preferences in a very haughty way.... Teach customer service to your manager bc the reat of the workers are amazing .... She need to be removed or chabge her attitude horrible experience ... And i come 1/2 a week .... If she treat clients like this cant imagine the horror to work with her ....

Great place for a quick lunch/dinner. The food bar is fresh and the BBQ meats of very good quality. The place is super clean and workers are very friendly.

Always love to eat here. Very clean eating without feeling bloated afterwards. They weigh your plate at the end so be careful of how much food you put on your plate if you budget. If you are like me you don't care about the price of the items you selected.

This review is done based on 3 experiences over last 5 months. It is consistently good experience and provide one of the best alternative to Brazilian cuisine without all-you-can-eat pricing model. This restaurant is using pay-by-pound model. They have a cold (salad) and hot bar (spaghetti, rice, plantain, and non Brazilian style meat). Going purely this option is $~13/lb. If you add the Brazilian meat, it goes to $~16/lb. The Brazilian meat choices include cuts of chicken, beef, and lamb. Usually I get the beef and lamb, and they are usually fabulously tender when it's medium. Note: if you see your previous person is cutting the same meat choice u wanted, suggest you to ask the server to cut you the tender part. That way the server won't put the skewer back to the grill (efficiency and you get your tender cut). Drinks: they have Brazilian soda in bottles. They also have wine and several draft beer selections.

If you are a meat lover this is the place....you can order your meat right from the grill...salad bar has most everything, vegetables and salads....hot dishes, rice, beans, plantains....good food... I would suggest you get your meat aside of the salad bar to avoid overcharge in your plate ..🥕🥕🥕

The best steak in town, Brazilian receipt. Buffet, per weight

This place always hits the spot and is consistent with the food any time day or night. Have been enjoying this place since they first opened the Culver City location, but we really have been first enjoying their food from their farmer’s market original location (with long lines snaking throughout the market).

one of my favorite places to eat, and this time I ordered a margarita, they are so delicious that I ended up ordering 2 more

Very delicious Brazilian food !!!

Often go here. Good variety and very tasty. Perfect if you want several different things for dinner.

I love this place! The food is delicious. Sometimes they have live music at dinner time. Very authentic. You can easily find vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. I highly recommend visiting Pampas Grill.

It's been awhile since I have been here. The restaurant has doubled in size and now has a full bar. The food is done cafeteria style and you wear a provided plastic glove when serving yourself. The meat is cut off the skewer for you and placed on your plate. They have several types of beef, chicken and lamb. There's even chargrilled pineapple, which was great. I've always thought the grilled meat was great and it hasn't changed. Happy Hour lasts until 7pm with discount wines and beer. We'll definitely be back.

Self service delicious food, clean environment.

Good food, great atmosphere and service.

As a Brazilian native, this place is amazing! The food is fresh, and the meat is on point. My favorite is the picanha! 10/10

Best lunch I've had in a long time. I started trying to increase my red meat consumption since learning about all the health benefits. The meal here was great, the service was friendly, the dining room and restroom were clean. My favorite was the lamb. I also got the garlic beef, tri tip, sirloin cap beef, and catfish, which were also really great. I can't wait to come back and try the rest of the meats. Oh and that cheese bread was amazing.

The food is always good, but it didn't receive 5 stars on this trip because the meat was a little tough and dry. However, it was well seasoned.

It's excellent Brazilian fireground meats and other Foods vegetarian dishes as well. Everything is very delicious

The only bad comment I have for this place is that the tables are not clean fast enough for people to sit. Everything is always good!!

Good steaks. Music on Sat nites is great too

The menu had advertised family specials, but when we arrived we were told that the serve-yourself buffet was the only option. All the meats were somewhat dry and very salty. The weigh-your-food pricing was quite high for what you got, and so overall was not a good value. I felt like we paid 50-75% more than what the meal was worth.

Some of the best buffet style food I've had. Unfortunately I didn't even know about the BBQ meats at the end of the line so I already filled my plate before I got there. But managed to try the tri-tip and it was delicious. Things I would skip next time: rice and beans, garlic pasta, broccoli (it was quite bad and hard). Next time I will do: focus on the BBQ meats at the end + 1-2 cheesy rolls + 2 plantains.

Great food,friendly people, and good prices.

One of the best barbecue joints with a choice of salads and other food items. It is a bit pricey though.

The food is very good! I’m very happy that they have Guaraná! The service is awesome and employees are very nice! My daughter rides horses and was very happy that the restaurant has lots of pictures of horses. The restroom’s are also very clean. Definitely deserves 5 stars!

Used to be a great experience, but has gotten expensive, salty noodles, but meat is good. Paid $42, for couple scoop of rice, pasta, plantain, bread & 4 thin slices of meat. Disappointed with the salty and dry noodles. Couldn’t eat it. It took me 4 rounds to get parking.

1 a week at least and they never failed us.

Pretty good buffet style brazilian food.

The food is so good but the service is so cold

Muy bueno, y los empleados muy amables.

Todo me pareció excelente!! Muchas opciones de guarnición, la carne suave , buen servicio.

A great place to eat if you are on an AIP diet!

Good traditional everyday Brazilian food. My only complaint would be regarding the preparation of the fried cassava. You can break your teeth, trying to eat it. My mom does much better, only boiling enough before frying.

I hadn't had a Brazilian feast in awhile and it was an easy choice between this place and the Vegan place across from it. I am too carnivorous for Vegan. I was impressed with this large, efficiently run restaurant. I like buffets and had my hot, fresh smorgasbord in minutes. I was excited to see the many delicious items and heaped palm hearts salad, olives, corn, fried catfish, beets(excellent), watermelon, luscious fresh avocado slices and beef stew on my plate. Of course, I couldn't pass up the star of the Brazilian buffet show: the delicious array of meats! I ordered slices of lamb, sirloin and plump sausage dumped on my crowded plate. And how could I pass up an exotic Bohemia malt beer to wash down the food party off my plate. The nice buffet man rang up my plate weighing who knows how many pounds because I was too busy focusing on cleaning every morsel off that plate for special delivery to my taste buds and stomach. $56 which was pricey but worth it to satisfy the Carnivore within. Highly recommended.

Comida boa, mas um péssimo atendimento! tem uma mulher que serve carne que é muito arrogante e folgada, n volto mais por conta dela!

Atendimento péssimo da mulher que serve carne. Poderia ser mais gentil.

Overall, this place is one of the best Brazilian steakhouses around LA (next to M grill in K town). They've maintained quality, added new items and have provided a better atmosphere. Their salads and bar items are amazing. Would definitely recommend over Fogo de Chao.

Fresh meat. Fresh salads. And that cheese bread absolutely rocks. Their wines are alright. And the atmosphere is pleasant. We keep going back.

Comida brasileira para matar a saudade.

The food is delicious and the restaurant looks nice inside and out.

Antiprofissional, eu confirmei no Google maps e diz que está aberto, dirigi 30 minutos até o pampas e quando chego lá encontro fechado. Desapontado

Love this place, authentic Brazilian food.

About 40 bucks per person. Casual spot and always alot of room.

Great selection of meats sliced fresh!!!

Great Brazilian food with a nice variety to choose from. Nice bar area and plenty of TVs for sports.

So I'm a very picky eater and I have to say that this place is excellent and didn't expect the food to be this outstanding 👌

I come here way more often than I should. The only negative to me eating here is that it can be uncomfortable ordering a lot of meat because they're just like "how much do you want" but they're also not like weighing it or really cutting consistently? Like "2 pieces" means wildly different things depending on the cut of meat and who is working.

Always a great spot. Meat quality is always great and the establishment is always clean. The ambient is always nice.

The restaurant is great. Everything very tasty, specially the Brazilian Churrasco. All the staff are very friendly.

Brazilian Buffet. What more do you want. Oh and the food slaps. Expect to pay 18-22 bucks if you’re not trained in the ways of the buffet. Cheese bread. Great meat, steak sirloin, lamb, chicken. Very clean with gourmet taste.

This is a great place to grab a quick lunch and good value for the money. Not the kind of place you would take a date to, but great for lunch with coworkers or dinner with large family. It's not the highest quality food, but it will hit the spot when you are craving Brazilian food, the whole gamut from bbq to feijoada.

This is my favorite place to eat steak around LA and not break the bank, food is very good, live music, cool place. I luv the caipirinha here(alcoholic beverage).

While I was waiting to buy meat in the restaurant, the person who cut the meat smeared oil and blood drops on my new shirt. Afterwards, I explained the situation to the manager of the restaurant and the woman in charge did not take care of me. I went back to my house and tried to remove the blood stains from my shirt, but I couldn't. I definitely don't plan to go to this restaurant again. My $80 t-shirt went to waste.

Affordable Brazilian BBQ.. They have really nice meat options and a great open buffet type service.. You get your own food from the bar and the your plate is weighed for the pricing.. One of my favorite lunch and dinner locations in the area.. And this is a great location. Would recommend.

Went there not knowing what to expect and came out very satisfied!! All of the food I had was good except for the passion fruit mousse which is too sweet

Food is amazing, don’t go crazy with the toppings since the food is by the weight. Chicken salad is great and surprisingly the cheesecake was good. Pão do queijo was freshly baked. No drink fountain but they have a full bar.

No Brasil, seria mais um bom restaurante por quilo, mas fora do Brasil, é simplesmente espetacular. Carnes todas no ponto, macias, variedade. O arroz com feijão e o pudim de sobremesa salvam quando você não aguenta mais ver hambúrguer, pizza ruim e comida chinesa

Restaurant is not a buffet(all you can eat for one price) but customers are able to see and pick what they want to pay; there is a salad bar, rice and beans, mashed potatoes, plantains, and more then at last they have the meat area where customer can pick from chicken, beef, pork, lamb. The only thing make sure you get the meat part because I got charged for fat that ended up in the trash. I also think its little pricey, the meat was very thin prolly not going back anytime soon.

If you're a Carnivore like myself, this place is the best. Pick your favorite Brazilian style chicken or beef anyway you like it!! Add on some delicious sides and you're in Heaven. Highly recommend.

Quality food and great customer service.

Best I've had other than Florida

I love their food, no complaints there. However the fact that I saw them THROW EVERYTHING STRAIGHT INTO THE TRASH after they closed, so so much food into the trash was so disappointing. Give it to your workers, give it to the homeless, give it to a organization, anything is better than throwing so much food away.

Pampas Grill Culver City HAPPY HOUR Monday through Thursday, from 3 PM to 6 PM!

Employees are friendly and accommodating. I have a large monthly group and we never have a problem with seating. The food is a great deal.

From the moment you walk into this buffet restaurant, you'll be impressed by the beautiful decor and warm atmosphere. The food is absolutely amazing, with a wide range of options that are sure to please every palate. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring that your dining experience is nothing short of perfect. Don't miss out on this fantastic restaurant!

Live music on fridays, food is always 5 stars atmosphere is cool service always on point. No complaints. By far favorite place to eat.

Pretty good and consistent. Solid service

Really good option for Brazilian food. You pay for the weight of the food on your plate so you can adjust and concentrate on the highest value items if you choose so. The quality of the meat was very good and it was just a great place to have good quality Brazilian food without paying a lot.

The Buffet is hands down one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. Whether you're in the mood for a light brunch or a sumptuous dinner, you won't be disappointed by what's on offer here. The selection of dishes is staggering, and the quality of the food is top-notch. From fresh seafood to juicy steaks, there's something for everyone here, and you won't be disappointed by what's on your plate.

Favorite restaurant in the area! Always great food and atmosphere!

Great food and great Brazilian churrasco! I’m Brazilian and I like it!

Good food super fresh fast and convenient but it is by weight so be careful don't load up too much.

Really good food, tasty and authentic! Just be aware is by pound so if you get excited the bill will be high

Great drinks and amazing service from the bar....

Deliciosa la barra de ensaladas. Prove pollo en salsa roja y la picaña ..muy buena!!
