Banana Brazil

Great selection between the meats and self serve buffet. Had the steak, spicy pork sausage, and chicken wings. All seasoned with the right amount of salt. The buffet has too many items to list, but the rice, beans, slaw and pico tasted fresh and very enjoyable.

Didn't like the flavor to one certain item but everything else was delicious. I do recommend this place and would come back.

I came for the sugar cane juice specifically which was ok, really sweet. I was attracted by the food in the buffet area. I ended up getting some white , red beans, baked chicken , and two pieces of braised oxtail. The food was good and savory!They do offer the meat fresh off the hot stick . Everything was nice and hot. The facility was clean and the guys are friendly and helpful. There is a dining area as well. Def returning, when I desire Brazilian cuisine.

So, after a 3-hr meeting today at the Meriden Meeting house. I stepped out and headed for my Loretta. I came around the corner, and it hit me like a Ton of Bricks. The smell of specially grilled and cooked barbecue Brazilian foods filled the air. Then I let my nose guide my steps Low and behold there it was. I went in and met the owner and his workers great people with a heart to put a smile on everyone's face that eats there. I had the lunch special by the pound Brazilian food at its Golden best. I read their personal Story, and it goes as follows. "Our Story Banana Brazil" began with family, tradition, and a belief that good food brings people together. Our roots trace back to Minas Gerais, Brazil, where our founder grew up surrounded by the flavors and warmth of home cooked Brazilian food. When members of our family immigrated to Danbury, Connecticut, they brought those traditions with them at a time when Brazilian food was still hard to find in the area, despite a growing Brazilian community. In the early days, family members worked side by side, building what would become one of Danbury’s first Brazilian restaurants. It started small, fueled by hard work, long hours, and a shared goal: to create a place where people could feel at home, enjoy familiar flavors, and gather as a community. As the restaurant grew, so did the family behind it. Today, Banana Brazil is proudly led by Nilton, alongside dedicated partners who share the same commitment to quality, culture, and community. While the business has evolved, its heart remains the same — family-driven, community-focused, and rooted in Brazilian tradition. What began as a single location has grown into multiple restaurants, each serving a full Brazilian buffet with something for everyone. From longtime regulars to first time guests, we’re proud to be a place where cultures meet, meals are shared, and everyone is welcome. Glad to share this Experience.

The food was exceptional. The steak and hot sausages were delicious. The food was good value, the place was clean and the people at the counter were polite and professional. The buffet style is great to pick whatever you like.

Love their food (excellent, reminds me of Carribbean food). I had the option of weighing food or buffet (23ish per person) chose buffet [was super full with one plate lol] Place had ample parking, and it was pretty empty. People were nice, it was clean and it was good food
