    Great food, very comfortable seating. It’s a high end place so don’t expect a lot of food for a low price but pricing wasn’t crazy either

    Hadn't been here in years. Very reasonable prices, entrees under $20! Fun place for our group. Waitress was very nice, The food was very good overall. My lobster quesadillas were quite yummy but portion was small, more like an appetizer. Steak fahitas was good, steak not very tender tough and skimpy on rice/ beans. Tacos were enjoyed by 2 of our party. Mexican lasagna was a bit too spicy for the person who got it, and she didn't realize it was a vegetarian dish though ingredients were listed. , maybe should label. Chicken fahitas was generous portion and enjoyed by the party who got them. The flan was good but a bit dense.

    It was our first time at Oliveira's Steakhouse and we had a wonderful time. The staff was very friendly and welcoming , the food was delicious. We were impressed with the many choices at the buffet and the options of meat served table-side. I felt that the price was reasonable for the amount of food we got. We chose the All You Can Eat option at $49.99pp and had more than enough to eat, overall it was a great experience and we will definitely come back!
