Restaurant Pantanal Rodizio Köln in Köln

Nice staff. The food is quite good. Decent salad buffet. The ambience is nice. However, it quickly becomes loud. When the dancers are out and about, the music is very, very loud.

Manager are horrible person with customer just because of them I wouldn’t recommend anyone attending to this place. Now you need to do reservations for a week in advance and before you just could seat in an empty table. They always say is all booked but is a lie. Food and show amazing as always Customer service is getting worse and worse

Unfortunately, no attention is paid to the separation of pork here and the quality also leaves a lot to be desired.

Quite loud and an ambience that leaves something to be desired. The staff could also be friendlier. I've been there several times, but I've never found it so bad. There is still a lot of room for improvement. But the food was good.

The food was okay at best. The service could have been more organized in the Rodizio. And I was very stupid not to ask for a bill, because the people probably charged my table with the price of another. 1 x Rodizio 1 x Lachs (which btw has right for Salat and Buffet) 1 x Kind 4J 1 x Große Flasche Sprüdel Wasser 1 x Virgin Erdbeere Colada 1 x Guaraná €174,.. WHERE? WO DAS ICH GAR NICHT SEHE. Won’t be coming back. Ever. And I’m Brazilian. Stay away from other Brazilians.

A real experience, friendly welcome and first class food, large selection of vegetables and meat and everything is brought to the table. Drinks are quite expensive, but you also pay for the atmosphere. Gladly again and a recommendation for everyone who likes meat and is hungry.

Very suitable for meat lovers. Attentive service and very friendly

We were there as a large group for the Christmas party. We were looking forward to a great, cozy evening. Unfortunately it was anything but that. It started as soon as we entered the restaurant, no one noticed us or asked us or said just a moment please, would have been enough. So we stood between the door and the hinge for 10 minutes. When we arrived at our place we were served by a rather annoyed and inattentive waiter. Well, anyone can have a bad day, but I've rarely experienced so little and bad service. The restaurant offers a buffet with rodizio. As I said, we were 16 people. Nevertheless, only one person came with one skewer each. That means not everyone could get meat and we had to wait a long time. The side dishes came 15 minutes later, by which time the meat was already cold. In addition, we didn't even get all the side dishes and skewers. It probably worked better at the smaller neighboring table. But then you can't offer such large groups or organize yourself better. I wouldn't recommend it with a larger number of people. In addition, some of the meat was still raw, and I mean completely raw. The side dishes weren't particularly tasty or innovative either. The price was way too high for buffet. Especially since you hardly got any food. So even without the lack of service, I wouldn't give the food many points for taste. The samba show was ok, but also short and not easy to see.

Wow, what was that now? I've never had such a great dinner before... great salad bar, amazing meat on the spit every minute, plus side dishes, delivered and served in a nice and friendly manner... wow... honestly... big praise... I'm thrilled ... gladly again when I'm in Kölle...

I ordered salmon today. Dry, unseasoned and tasteless. There was lukewarm broccoli, dry rice and the salmon were very dry. The service was attentive and friendly.

I recently visited what was supposed to be a Brazilian restaurant, but my experience was far from enjoyable. The moment we arrived, the Portuguese managers greeted us with indifference. When we asked for a table, the waiter barely glanced at us while he dismissively claimed the restaurant was fully booked. Yet, to our surprise, the place was completely empty! It felt more like we were an inconvenience than valued customers. The atmosphere was cold and unwelcoming, and I left feeling frustrated and ignored. I can’t recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic Brazilian hospitality or service.

Always very tasty! Great service and first class staff. We celebrated our grandson Adem's 18th birthday and it was great. We'll be back, with best regards from the Butzke family

What's there to eat? Meat with flesh on flesh. Eat: If you want to really give it a go in terms of quantity, I can only recommend the Pantanal in Cologne. Yes, the Rodizio is worth the money at just under €40, but it's really worth it! The Rodizio is a kind of "all you can eat", but you don't have to go to the buffet. Because apart from the salad and dessert, you get everything at the table. The different types of meat (beef rump, boiled beef, pork loin, lamb, sausages and bacon, chicken, smoked pork) are cut directly onto your plate from a hot spit. Depending on the grill condition, the meat was between medium-rare and well done. If you have special requests in this regard, it is best to tell the service how you would like it. Then he turns the tables again or comes a little later to try again. There is also a selection of side dishes that are also offered directly at the table: mushrooms, green beans, broccoli, fried potatoes, rosemary potatoes, rice with sauce, fries, grilled pineapple, baked banana. As I said, you can also help yourself to the starter and dessert buffet. There is plenty of food, which is offered in a friendly manner by (sometimes a bit stressed) staff. Staff: The service is friendly and accommodating, although there was also a "Grummelbär" on our evening, which you can't hold against him either. After all, he is “only” human, and the hut was packed. So not a big point of criticism. Ambiance: Actually quite a nice atmosphere, where an attempt was made to convey the Brazilian flair. Due to the size and full capacity, it was quite loud, but you could still have a (good) conversation. In between (I estimate every hour - I didn't look at the clock) Brazilian music was played, to which typically dressed dancers tried to spread the mood. It's a nice idea, and it's welcome if it's done that way in Brazil, but somehow we didn't achieve the goal here during our visit. Cleanliness / Sanitary: The restaurant and sanitary facilities are so clean, I had to pass the serving kitchen on the way to the sanitary facilities (there you could catch a glimpse of the skewers being prepared). It was a bit slippery on the ground there. On the one hand, it's inevitable that every now and then some gravy drips from the skewers onto the floor. On the other hand, appropriate measures could certainly be taken there. Conclusion: An absolutely filling experience with lots of fun. Even my daughter, who was a bit skeptical beforehand, was more than happy with her full stomach and didn't have much to complain about. If you want to really have a blast with meat consumption, this is the right place for you. We'll be happy to come back, even if it means shopping in Cologne for 5 hours beforehand - with my wife and daughter ;) PS: Unfortunately there are no photos, I was busy eating

Overpriced, very poor meat quality, boring and neutral side dishes, first meat came after 40 minutes, unfortunately subpar!

Simply have a gigantic evening with a larger group. It's not a place for a romantic quiet meal. Price performance is completely right for me because the meat was of very good quality. I was last in this restaurant 20 years ago before I was here again and this time the break before the next visit won't be so long!

Unfortunately I was totally disappointed! Poor quality meat. The ribs were probably no longer good - that was our opinion from several people... That was the first and last time.

Brazilian cuisine is really excellent and very tasty! The dishes are authentic and well seasoned, so you feel like you've been transported to Brazil. Unfortunately we had to wait a little longer for the starters, which spoiled the overall impression a little. Otherwise everything was great - the main course came quickly and the service was friendly. All in all, a recommended restaurant for anyone who wants to enjoy Brazilian specialties!

Super great service, delicious food, great atmosphere

The two of us were in the restaurant yesterday. The Rodizio we booked tastes good, but the staff is very inattentive. Not once was anyone asked whether additional drinks or anything similar were needed. After a stay of 45 minutes you are completely ignored and only get a second helping if you ask the staff walking past. Unfortunately bananas were out, pineapples were very limited. Food: 4/5 Ambiance: 3/5 - quite dark Service: 2/5 Friendliness: 2.5/5 Attention: 2/5 Price: 2/5

We (Brasileiros) were at the Churrascaria Pantanal Rodizio yesterday on October 1st, 2024 at 6:30 p.m. It was like being at home. All we can do is take our hats off to you. Simply wonderful. Clear recommendation for people who love South American/Southern cuisine. Enjoy the time and bring your time with you, because it will be an unforgettable experience. Big praise to the team! Alves Henschel family

Some good food and some not. This restaurant needs more consistency with their meat choices.

Since we went on a weekday, there was no show, but it was great to be able to eat unlimited meat for a certain price. After we said we don't eat pork, the waiters don't ask for pork again

I had been there again for a long time and the anticipation was great. Unfortunately, the portions of meat served were largely of mediocre quality. We only received picanha and roast beef upon request and after a long wait, after being bombarded for half an hour with cheap skewers (sausages, chicken, extremely bad ribs, dry mayor piece) and filling side dishes. The passing of the grilled pineapple after 70 minutes was supposed to mark the end of the rodizio, even though we weren't offered the better types of meat that were also advertised. Our questions were then met with stupid answers. The previously good drink service suddenly dried up and our group was obviously ignored. Even though we had drunk a lot and at a high price, we suddenly had the feeling that we were no longer wanted and the main goal seemed to be to clear our plates with the meat cutlery. The starter and dessert buffet was below average; here too, almost exclusively cheap components were presented (e.g. flavored cream known as Nutella mousse). Conclusion: This restaurant is no longer what it used to be and €37 for the Rodizio is excessive. The method is probably to whip the guests through the extremely salty rodizio with cheap, filling components; there can be no question of enjoyment. Quality, mostly at a lower level and the arrogance in the service only means: Stay away, never again and go to a good steak house. Unfortunately I'm super disappointed, that's it.

We were not disappointed with our expectations. High-quality meat from the spit and mostly friendly staff. 37€ for Rodizio is not small but definitely worth it. Prices for cocktails (e.g. Caipirinha for €7.00) are also relatively humane. We were also impressed by the range of starters and desserts. Highly recommended. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

We booked a table for 2 people one day a week. The restaurant half full. Unfortunately it didn't live up to my expectations. The meat dishes served were ok, but not outstanding in my opinion. We were noticeably missing the side dishes that were served at the table. A 0.2l cola for 3.40 seemed too expensive to me. Spent a little less than €100 for 2 people. The dancers who were supposed to perform were missing here in the evening. But maybe only on weekends. Summary: I won't make a longer journey here again to have an exciting evening. However, I would like to praise all the employees who served us. Everyone very friendly. I would like to mention that these are my impressions, and everyone's tastes are different.

Salatbüffet, Service und Qualität des Fleisches einwandfrei. Besonders das frische Tranchieren vom Spieß garantiert volles Aroma und saftiges Esserlebnis. Mehr südamerikanische Soßen wären wünschenswert. Publikum etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Leider leidet der Gesamteindruck des Restaurants darunter. Qualität des Fleisches aber einwandfrei. Gerne wieder.

If you don't get your money's worth here, it's your own fault. The meat is really very good. The service was top.

The food was way too salty and the quality didn't justify the high prices. Service was inattentive and overall the value for money was disappointing. Unfortunately no recommendation.

Chicken 🍗 was very tasty as well as 40 percent from the salad bar. The waiters were also friendly. The visit hardly justifies the price of €37, except that someone doesn't pay attention to money. On Friday the restaurant was 2/3 full between 5:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. It's better to leave the restaurant before 7 p.m., as the waiters will demonstratively clean up everywhere and give you an indication with their looks where to go: namely towards the front door.

I found it too loud to have a nice evening with friends. It's definitely a great location for bowling clubs or stag parties. The food was delicious and the staff was on point.

The rodizio is excellent. The rump steak and the turkey in bacon are my absolute favorites. There is also a starter and dessert buffet. The service staff is friendly and very quick with serving. At certain times there are dance performances by Brazilian dancers.

We recently had the pleasure of visiting the Pantanal Rodizio in Cologne and all I can say is that it was an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment we entered the restaurant we were warmly greeted and shown to our table. The atmosphere was lively and authentically Brazilian, with a great mix of music and decorations that immediately put us in the holiday spirit. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, which made the evening even more enjoyable. The food was simply excellent. The selection of meats served directly to the table was impressive. Each piece was perfectly grilled and incredibly juicy. I would particularly like to highlight the beef and sausages – a real culinary delight! The side dish buffet also left nothing to be desired, with a variety of fresh and delicious options. Another highlight was the grilled pineapple for dessert - a sweet and refreshing end to a perfect meal. Overall, our visit to the Pantanal Rodizio was an unforgettable experience. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic Brazilian rodizio experience. We will definitely come back!

Excellent food, fair prices, friendly staff, welcoming environment...

Service is rushed, making you finish your meal quickly to leave the table empty for other people. Some attendants are not receptive, including the manager. I don't recommend it.

The food was salty but very tasty. But the service was terrible and we were served very unfriendly and unwillingly. After a long wait, we were finally allowed to eat meat. A drink was first forgotten and then billed for twice. The dancers were wonderful, but the service from the waiters for drinks etc. was terrible. We wanted more drinks several times and were unable to order anything or received the wrong drinks. Never again.

My visit to the Pantanal Rodizio was a real highlight. The “All You Can Eat” offer was completely convincing: the food was fresh and incredibly tasty. Particularly noteworthy is the friendliness of the staff, who were always attentive and courteous. An all-round successful experience – the Pantanal Rodizio is highly recommended!

The staff is unfriendly, you come in and everyone runs past you and you are not greeted, they don't explain what the food is like. You realize that everything has to happen quickly, quickly. You know that you have good recessions and you don't have to try harder. There were 7 of us and we won't come back for the money 🫤 oh well. It's not worth almost €40 if every second staff member is unfriendly!!!!

Great food and the service was great. Gladly again 👍

I was really looking forward to this evening with my family and then I was very disappointed! First you are offered the menu so that everyone can have an alternative to Rodizio. In the end we discovered that there were actually no alternatives. No matter what you wanted to order, there was always a problem, the best statement when it came to rump steak: “the grill is broken but we can have rump steak at Rodizio!” The restaurant is not recommended for vegetarians! There is only one vegetable plate. When I asked if we could get some fries with it, they said, sure, if we take the Rodizio. Sorry, the store has changed a lot and for the worse! We then left without eating anything.

Not much has changed since it opened, and that's what makes it special. The special thing about all you can eat is that the waiters come to the table and cut a piece of meat from the skewer onto a plate. Side dishes are also served. You can enjoy trying many different types of meat (fillets, roast beef, ribs, beef/pork/lamb/chicken) in one evening.

A bit uncomfortable as quickly as the food arrives. But it tasted good

Wir waren am 7.7.24 mit der Familie (6 Personen) dort essen. Es war einigermaßen voll. Ich war schon öfters da, diesmal waren wir aber ziemlich enttäuscht. Es war früher deutlich besser und der Service hat nachgelassen. Die Auswahl hat deutlich abgenommen und das bei deutlich steigenden Preisen. Die Kellner kamen mit den Beilagen kaum hinterher und man hatte das Gefühl, dass immer nur wieder die gleichen Fleischsorten angeboten wurden sind. Teilweise war das Fleisch diesmal zu sehr durch oder zu roh. Auf Nachfragen kamen die Kellner mit den Beilagen mal vorbei, ansonsten blind einfach weiter gegangen. Das Roastbeef und Rumpsteak waren sehr lecker, aber der Rest leider enttäuschend. Der Kellner hat 3 mal das Fleisch auf mein Oberteil fallen lassen, das war schon eine Frechheit, das sollte einem Kellner nicht 3 mal passieren. Wir werden da leider nicht mehr hingehen und kann es leider auch nicht mehr weiter empfehlen. Vielleicht hatten wir einen wirklich schlechten Tag, aber der Tisch 2 Reihen vor uns, hat einfach mittendrin das Restaurant verlassen, da waren so einige sehr unzufriedene Gäste. Schade, es war mal wirklich gut mit einer top Auswahl an Beilagen und Fleisch. Selbst die Salatbar hat deutlich nachgelassen. Früher gab es auch Shrimps und etc., heute nur noch Standart. Wohl alles der Inflation zu verdanken.

We had dinner with 14 people on July 5th, 2024. The service didn't work at all. As soon as we had eaten the starter, the plate was taken away in a rude manner. We were still chewing. The meat kebabs came like they were on an assembly line. Much too quickly. The side dishes were delayed . At the end things got uncomfortable with the bill. We had already collected money for the food beforehand. We only had to add up the money for the drinks. We were asked several times by a waiter to speed up. Because he was tired and had to work tomorrow. We had a bill of over 600 euros. That's not possible. We won't go there anymore.

Wir haben hier zu dritt sehr gut gegessen. Wir wurden nett bedient und bekamen in vernünftigen Abständen sehr gut gegartes Fleisch serviert, wir haben nur Rind und Lamm gegessen, auf Schwein haben wir verzichtet. Die Beilagen waren auch sehr lecker, der Salat am Büffet frisch und passte super zum Fleisch. Auch der Nachtisch war lecker. Für uns Fleischfresser war es toll, preislich nicht günstig, auch die Getränke, aber lieber Geld für gute Essen ausgeben als für schlechtes, wir kommen bestimmt mal wieder.

As always: everything was super delicious 😋

The first and last time, every time we come, it's always fully booked or reserved. We were there and there are endless places available. Apparently the owner is doing well, at least 50 or more items available

Always great! Great food from A - Z

We serve you quickly and attentively. Were there in a larger group. Unfortunately only during the week, come back at the weekend when the samba dancers are there.

Great food and fresh meat from the spies with nice dance entertainment.

All you can eat, salad veg and meat.. tasty food.. you will get full

The meat is great!! The service, apart from 3 waitresses, was bad! At first they mostly walked through the restaurant smacking gum with their mouths open and came to the table. Then there was always a waiter around who hadn't adapted his gangster style from his school days to suit his age. Sorry dear Pantanal, but you don't want to present yourself like that!! The 4 stars are really because your skewers are simply great :)

Wow. What an experience! This restaurant is a dream for anyone who loves food! The food, especially the meat, is something very special and is served by super friendly service. And the entire ambience made the evening perfect! So huge recommendation!

Super delicious food, my personal highlight is always the Tafelspitz. Network employees. After my son (4) fell asleep instead of eating, they voluntarily waived his all-youcan eat rule. My praise. Unfortunately, parking on the street is very expensive, but a wonderful restaurant, any time again

There is a big difference in quality between the first and last meat. From the first meat to the third, it was delicious. However, starting with the fourth piece of meat, the quality dropped sharply, and in the end, I got meat that tasted like chewing rubber. The salad bar is not large, but has decent food. I paid 50 euros per person including drinks, but I don't think this is a restaurant I would pay that price for.

Meat tastes really bad, drinks are brought wrong. The worst thing is that you feel like you have a block of salt in your mouth with every bite. You are almost forced to drink 22 liters of water while eating. Service very pushy with the side dishes. Unfortunately it was the first and last time I was here.

Not like before. I come here once a year because the price of 37€ for food is not without its price. We were politely brought to the table and waited for the food. After the first skewer of meat, we waited 30 minutes for more meat!!! I went to the waiter and complained. He then signaled to the employees that they should also come to our table. Vegetables arrived after 2 hours! No system, no order when it comes to food distribution! Potatoes and fries came every 10 minutes, mushrooms and broccoli once every 3 hours. In addition, empty drinks are not automatically removed from the table. Our table was full of empty bottles. It's really audacious that you have to go see an employee every time while they deliberately don't make eye contact. After 2-3 rounds of meat, we noticed that the meat was completely over salted again. Spare ribs felt like they were only marinated with salt. At the end we went to dessert, where almost all the plates of cake were empty. Again we had to wait 10 minutes! Instead of refilling regularly, the customer is deliberately made to wait so that it can be done quickly. I won't eat here again. On the one hand because of the bold strategy with over-salted meat, and on the other hand because of the long waiting times. And that for over €50 per person. An impudence. I'm sorry, that's not acceptable. I hope that the concept will be worked on and it will be like before. Until then, not recommended.

Very nice restaurant, good idea with the skewers, dance performances were a great accompaniment, we felt very comfortable overall. The only point of criticism is that the supplements were started too late. Would come again at any time and can only recommend it.

Very tasty food with an extremely large selection at Rodizio, whether it's meat, side dishes or the large salad buffet. You almost can't keep up with the food, as quickly as you are offered something from the various types of meat and side dishes right at the table. You should definitely take plenty of space in your stomach here! Together with the samba show on Friday evening, it was a really great experience!

Restaurant Pantanal Rodizio in Cologne is a true paradise for lovers of Brazilian cuisine! As soon as you enter the restaurant you immediately feel welcome and transported to the lively atmosphere of Brazil. The ambience is warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy evening with friends or family. The highlight of the restaurant is without a doubt the Rodizio concept: an impressive selection of grilled meat specialties served directly at the table. The quality of the meat is outstanding and the variety of cuts on offer leaves nothing to be desired. The juicy steaks and the tender chicken are particularly recommended - each piece was grilled to perfection and full of flavor. Another highlight is the talented chef who prepares the dishes with passion and skill. You can literally feel how much passion goes into every dish. The side dishes and salads complement the meat perfectly and offer a delicious variety of flavors. The service is excellent: the staff is extremely attentive, friendly and always strives to offer guests an unforgettable experience. The dancers are particularly impressive in their colorful Brazilian costumes, who delight the guests with their rousing performances and spread a festive atmosphere. Pantanal Rodizio not only offers fantastic food, but also a piece of Brazilian joie de vivre. A visit here is more than just a meal, it is an experience. We will definitely come back and can highly recommend this restaurant to everyone. Five stars for this culinary highlight in Cologne!

The group wanted us to eat there sometime. Unfortunately it wasn't for me. Because meat, side dishes and vegetables came to the table with a relatively large time difference. There was nothing left on the plate. There were no sauces whatsoever. In addition, you had to wait a long time for the drinks because you weren't noticed in all the hustle and bustle if you asked for them - and you needed drinks because the meat was extremely spicy and fatty.

Always an experience. A must for meat lovers.

We went to a Brazilian restaurant for the first time today and I had only heard good things about it. The price of €37 per person is an absolute disgrace for the service and what you get in return. Afterwards I was just full from the salad. At the beginning, in the first 20 minutes, we were repeatedly offered meat, which we couldn't accept as often as possible. I ended up with a single bone from the ribs, a small leg of chicken and two mini portions of meat to try. Afterwards I would have liked to try more types of meat but no one came to our table. Since we were sitting directly at the salad buffet and kitchen, the meat skewers regularly passed us by. Because of the loud and busy acoustics, among other things, we were unable to stop one of the waiters or meat distributors. We weren't asked for drinks again except at the beginning. The service was underground! After 45 minutes we gave up. In the meantime we had lost our appetite for dessert. Almost €90 for a colorful salad plate, a bottle of water and a beer is a rip-off! Once and never again! We cannot recommend the restaurant or the food.

We went to the Pantanal Rodizio at Mediapark for the first time today and were so disappointed that I'm writing my first review here. I can't understand all the positive reviews at all! Above all, the service was subpar. There were neither drinks replenished nor enough food at the table. At the beginning the waiters came so often that it was impossible to accept the food due to the crowds and after about 20 minutes no one came anymore. I was full from the salad buffet and the bread, for which I find €37 per person very steep. I can't say the meal was a special culinary experience as I barely got to taste any meat. Unfortunately, due to the noise and the ignorance of the waiters, we were unable to ask for meat ourselves. Because of the anger, we lost our appetite for dessert. It felt like a rip off! Once and never again! We can't recommend it...

Unfortunately it wasn't my case. It was very loud and restless while we were there. In addition, the tables and chairs were very narrow, so it was always very uncomfortable and awkward to get up and go to the salad/dessert buffet. It took a very long time for the waitress to get to us with the skewers (one waitress told us off that meat would be coming soon and then left with the full bowl of potatoes) and they didn't even come to us with some of the side dishes (e.g. fries). came. Only after we had asked several times to please bring us some and had to wait a lot of time did the fries arrive. I also had the feeling that they were often at the smaller neighboring tables with many dishes and then deliberately ignored us (there were 9 people at the table). With each skewer they were only at our table once. Unfortunately, the meat was really dry and every dish without exception was dripping with fat (maybe that's typically Brazilian, but it was definitely not my taste). In addition, a waiter dropped a cola at the table. He apologized several times, tried to clean everything and also brought the affected person a new Coke. That was okay and mistakes happen, especially when it's as crowded and busy as it was that day. After almost all the dishes were brought to our table, they were cleared away very quickly... everything. Including all sauces etc. They didn't ask if they could bring us anything else or anything like that. It felt very much like we had to go now. The desserts were delicious.

It just wasn't for me...but many people like it. I thought the beef was delicious! I personally found it strange that they only let women dance every now and then - not that they didn't dance well, but Brazilian carnival definitely doesn't only consist of women - I found that very cliché - but tastes are different. I was in Berlin years ago - somehow I thought it was better...

Every attempt to make an online reservation three or four days in advance ended with a "Sorry, everything is fully booked." When I knew my Cologne appointment more than three weeks in advance, I was happy that it would finally work out. But after the automatic confirmation of receipt of the online reservation request, nothing came. An email query also remained unanswered. Then tried by phone: the first time no one answered. On the second attempt, they simply said that there must be something wrong with my email account or that I hadn't checked my spam folder. But even though I had the confirmation of receipt and it was supposedly my fault that nothing was answered, there was no reservation in my name. I then didn't say thank you for anything and lost all desire to try again.

I was there again after over 10 years. Unfortunately, the quality and also the quantity have decreased significantly. The appetizer buffet is no longer as extensive and, in my opinion, the variety of meat on offer has also lost its richness.

Das Essen war wie immer top. wir haben als Familie das Buffet gewählt und sämtliche Speisen wurden frisch am Tisch abgeschnitten auf den Teller, und auch das Buffet war reichhaltig, sowohl Salat als auch Nachtisch. Ich liebe dieses Restaurant und habe mir den Besuch aufgrund meines Abiturs gewünscht. dieses Restaurant kann man nur wärmstens empfehlen. An entsprechenden Tagen gibt es auch (original?) Sambatänzerinnen. Die knapp 60 Minuten lohnen sich allemal!!!

Terrific. There is absolutely nothing to complain about. Very tasty, great service

So much money for disappointing quality of meat is exaggerated, appetizer and dessert follow. The staff is friendly, but that doesn't save the entire disappointing evening.

Yesterday we were in this very unusual restaurant for the second time. Above all, the good food, a very good selection of cocktails combined with a very nice entertainment program in between make a stay an experience. But most importantly, I think, are the very professional and friendly employees. A big compliment again for this. We'd love to come back.

In the first 20 minutes, food (meat and side dishes) kept coming. Nothing came after that. The quality of the meat isn't bad, but the whole concept isn't worth 37 euros. The side dishes are rather bland, there are no sauces or anything like that. We wouldn't go there again.

On April 11th, around 10:30 PM, I attempted to make a reservation but encountered a significant language barrier with the receptionist. Despite informing them of my limited English and explaining I was calling from Dubai, the communication resulted in being blocked. This left me feeling shocked and frankly, disrespected. Hopefully, Restaurant Pantanal Rodizio Köln will take this feedback to heart and work towards creating a more welcoming environment for all guests.

My recent experience with Pantanal Rodizio left me feeling utterly disappointed and frustrated. As a frequent diner and traveler around the world, I've never encountered such treatment anywhere. I called them to make a reservation, only to be met with unexpected hostility. Instead of accommodating my request, I was inexplicably blocked. Despite my polite inquiries, the staff seemed indifferent and unhelpful, leaving me feeling ignored and disrespected. This incident not only ruined my evening but also kept me up all night, pondering over the inexplicable treatment I received. As someone who values courteous and professional service, I am deeply disappointed by the lack of respect and consideration shown by Pantanal Rodizio. I sincerely hope that Pantanal Rodizio reevaluates its customer service policies and strives to treat all patrons with the dignity and respect they deserve. Until then, I cannot in good conscience recommend it to anyone seeking a pleasant experience.

Typical Brazilian cuisine. Impressive meat skewers that are cut onto the plate directly at the table. Plus side dishes and dessert from the buffet. If you're lucky, there are even samba dancers. It has its price, but can be recommended for special occasions.

A wonderful evening with delicious food and a beautiful ambience!

Buffet with few salad options, all very poorly cut. Bitter caipirinha, the lemon must have been cut days ago. They go from table to table serving what should be a feijoada, without sausage or any type of meat, just black beans and water and super poorly made rice. It took them a long time to start serving meat at our table, they only started after we complained. Are they friendly? Yes a lot. But the food is terrible.

I've been there again for over 10 years now and what can I say, I was disappointed. The meat was over-seasoned and it always came to the table straight away. A pity.

Very nice experience. All you can eat and the service was really regular. That's why the service was better than 5 stars. The meat was very tasty and there were many different types of meat. The buffet wasn't particularly extensive, but the quality of the food was still excellent. The seating could be more comfortable, but overall it was a great experience.

Wide range of meat Partially oversalt the meat Ambiance is more bad than right, has nothing to do with Brazil Service messed up, but friendly and funny

Interesting presentation and authentic atmosphere. A very nice environment and delicious presentations for meat lovers...

Adventure dinner with show program :-)

Not cheap, but there is plenty of good food in an appealing atmosphere. The price-performance ratio is absolutely fine.

There was plenty to eat. It was delicious too. The bread with the dips wasn't that special. In addition to the meat, various side dishes were also brought to the table by the friendly waitresses. I can highly recommend the fried peppers. What wasn't so nice... It smelled a lot like sewer sewage. That should be fixed. Even when my wife was there a few weeks later, it was still the same.

Service was subpar, waiters and the skewer barely came to the table. Had to wait a very long time between the skewers. Food was extremely over salted, so were all the side dishes. It was part of the meat but everything else was really extremely over salted. Of course you offer over-salted food in order to sell more drinks. But that was audacious. Ambience was fine The dancers put on a good show The concept is known from Düsseldorf, where it is implemented 100 times better. We won't be coming back to Cologne. A pity

Salty food, poor quality and unfriendly staff! Has nothing to do with a classic Rodizio and is not worth the money

For Brazilians who want to miss Brazil, they are going to the wrong place. The buffet only had grated carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions... just salads. The meat took a long time to serve and of course the picanha was left for last almost when they were taking our plate off the table. Everything was very salty and the rice and beans served at the table were very bad (watery and VERY salty beans). The waiters had ZERO friendliness (not to mention that I didn't hear ANY Portuguese). It was a total disappointment and I wouldn't go back and I wouldn't recommend it either!

Got a table without a reservation despite Saturday evening. Process: Starter buffet, various meats (e.g. chicken, rump steak) with side dishes brought to the table, dessert buffet for a total of €37, drinks extra At 8:30 p.m. the music suddenly turned up and the dancers started dancing to Brazilian music. It was a beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommended!

A very nice shop. I never knew what a change was. Top!

Very tasty food and courteous staff.

There can be no question of all you can eat: after a few rounds there was nothing left and no fresh skewers came out of the grill.

Meat from the spit and really good quality.

There are many kinds of meat, including chicken, beef and mutton. The food was served very quickly and the service attitude was very good. The meat is tender and delicious, very juicy, and the roasted beans and mushrooms are also delicious! Salad is a buffet! A perfect buffet!

Really good Brazilian rodizio at a fair price!

Totally unpleasant service! And meat is also mass-produced, so the quality is only 1 out of 5 stars!! Not worth visiting at all!

We were there with 7 colleagues and wanted to have a nice evening. Unfortunately nothing came of it. The whole restaurant smelled like a drain, according to the waiter, the problem had been known for years...so the food was inedible!! The starter buffet was nothing special, I expected more for the price... We found the show sessions with the Brazilian dancers very entertaining. But we won't come back again.

Worthwhile. Wonderful food, great service and a great show.

Excellent service, welcoming and very accessible atmosphere

We often go there for men's evenings together. Unfortunately this time it was very crowded and we had to wait over 40 minutes before we got our first skewers. We also had to wait a long time for drinks at the beginning. In addition, a waiter spilled hot vegetable water on my friend and didn't even really apologize for it. Nevertheless, the food and the skewers were again delicious and later the drinks came quicker. The dancers' performance creates a Brazilian atmosphere every time. We will continue to dine there.

We actually like going to a Brazilian restaurant, but it's always too crowded here. It's particularly unpleasant at the salad buffet because there is no beginning or end and everyone really wants to go there at the same time. You should work with traffic signs ;) Maybe you should move the salad bar somewhere to one side so that the queues in the middle of the restaurant are equalized and everyone can see where the buffet begins and ends. The service was very good and courteous. Some of the meat was unusually bland, but still very tasty. You can add more seasoning :)
