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. The meat was seasoned, placed on skewers, and slow cooked over a wood burning flame. Historically, gauchos were known for their generosity and hospitality.
Gauchos deliver all-you-can-eat meats at this modern-looking Brazilian eatery with a salad bar.

The experience was amazing! The food was amazing, the staff was amazing, the servers were amazing, everything was fantastic. My favorites of the night were the pineapple and the fried bananas. The house special is in the running for my favorite part of the meal. When I return to Philly, Chima’s will definitely be on my list. It was the best and I had the absolute greatest time.

While the food is good, the service needs improvement. Also, this place is too pricey for what is served. For the smallest piece of steak, I felt ripped off by the price. As soon as you walk in, you are charged $70 per person regardless of the amount they eat which is absurd considering the self serve is a sad salad bar. The waitress forgot to mention that the small card needs to be flipped over to the Orange side if you want the steak to be offered. Also, we had no clue what random “appetizers” were set on our table which apparently included the most soup-like mashed potatoes I have ever seen. The servers with the steak have difficulty with English and would walk away even if we had the card things flipped correctly. The drink options are limited to basically hot coffee, alcohol, and water. The place is pretty, but not worth a $500 price tag and only desserts can be taken out in a to-go bag. You aren’t allowed to take the food on your plate with you home which is absurd. Not going back and would avoid like the plague. A joke of the term “Steakhouse” is what this place is.

Very nice place for date night. The shrimp and the pineapple was so was so good and so juicy. I love all of the fixings you can get at the salad bar to elevate the steak, shrimp, lamb or chicken.

Absolutely hated the salad bar. They should consider 1-2 more warm veggie options to pair with all of the delicious meats. 90% of the salad bar options were cold. The meats were delicious , and the grilled pineapple was delicious also!!

I had a really great evening at this restaurant. The service and atmosphere was great. The unlimited options of meat was so filling and tasty. The only thing I didn’t care for to much was the salad bar:( It was nice just not to my cup of tea:/ However, it was definitely an experience and I would go again:)

I had the best birthday dinner with my family here. The service was extraordinary. Everyone including the hosts, the waiters/waitresses, and the Gauchos helped to provide such a great experience. I was able to try new things such as the pineapple. I was shocked at how great everything tasted. We were worried about bringing our 1 year old to his first fancy restaurant but everyone was so friendly and accommodating to him. He also ate almost everything, which is great!!

I went for my birthday dinner, and the customer service was great. From the hostess to the valet. The vibe was mid grade here. The meats were good. The sides options were, unfortunately, not that greatest as for variety wise, in my opinion. The birthday cheese cake was basic in taste.

Me and the boys come here annually for a birthday. Every time I come here I feel my cholesterol shooting up to the moon but I absolutely love everything about this place. I always make my reservation for 7pm and get there at 6:30pm to enjoy the happy hour drinks. Don’t even touch the salad bar, let’s be honest- we not there to eat any salad we there to eat a whole cattle and that’s it! Grab some butter and go to town on the food. Can’t wait for next year to come.
