    This place was recommended by some locals while we were working at the Special Olympics in Ames, so stopped by to check it out at the end of the day before heading home. It is a very unique Brazilian-themed restaurant just across the street from the Iowa State campus with a good selection of beers and Brazilian-themed foods and mixed drinks.

    We started with drinks – a Pisco Sour and a Caipirinha (see picture). The locals highly recommended the Beaudelaire Bauru sandwich and while it looked delicious, we had already made plans with our wives after returning home, so weren’t able to sample it. The other item that was recommended though was the Brazilian Fries w/ mayo (see picture) and we were able to sample them. They were very good – crispy on the outside and warm and soft inside – with the mayo making a great dip pair.

    I can’t wait to return with my wife sometime and give the Beaudelaire Bauru a try. You definitely won’t regret stopping here for a bite to eat or a drink – good food, value, selection and service.

    I’ve eaten at several other Brazilian Steakhouses in the US and even one in Torreon, Mexico.  The only thing missing vs. Fogo de Chao is fills mignon – but your pocketbook will appreciate it costing about 1/2.  Loved the grilled pineapple as well as the flank steak, bacon-wrapped sirloin and of course the Picanha (Brazilian signature meat).  If you love meat (and LOTS of it), you’ve got to try this place!
