My fiancé and I came here for his birthday. We both loved it! He is a big lover of red meat and steak and he couldn't stop raving about how good everything was. The whole experience was incredible.
Beef selections were juicy and tender and so flavorful. The first cut of lamb rust I tried was slightly overcooked but the second serving was perfection. They also had chicken hearts, which I tried and didn't necessarily care for, but a lot of people love them. I highly recommend their house special and the bacon wrapped beef, but i don't think you can really go wrong.
One tip, since the meat is super fresh and sliced thinly, try to pace how much meat you get at once on your plate. Everything is delicious, but if you pile on a bunch of meat then the cuts start to cool rather quickly and you lose much of the flavor and freshness. Small portions, eat quickly, and repeat!
I loved the salad bar and hot sides. Very fresh and flavorful, and all the sides compliment the meat. Definitely try the sun dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, the collared greens, and the homestyle potatoes. And the basket of cheese bread �
I had a fabulous glass of malbec for only $9, it was one of the best wines I've tried from any restaurant. My fiancé had the Brazilian limeade which was delicious! I definitely recommend it.
The service was spectacular!! So warm and attentive. The manager came around to touch tables, the bussers are constantly moving, my water glass was NEVER empty, the entire place is impeccably clean, and our hostess and waiter were so delightful and helpful.
They also brought out a piece of complimentary flan for my fiance's birthday. Literally the BEST flan I've ever had. Ever.
The dinner price is about $50 per person, lunch is a bit cheaper. For the quality and the amount (all you can eat!) I think it's definitely worth it especially for a special occasion. Depending on how much you drink, you can estimate a bill of about $130-$140 for two people plus tip. Compared to other steakhouses (Brazilian or otherwise) I consider this a steal!
I can't recommend Agora's highly enough. We might not come here regularly, but this is definitely our new favorite "fancy date"/special occasion spot!!
Agora is a special treat for us meat eaters. Charbroiled meat of all kinds are delicious. The side disephes are equally splendid. A bit pricey, but worth the experience.
The food and staff were absolutely excellent. Everyone was so nice and helpful and friendly. The food was wonderful. Will definitely have to come here again.
Everything was absolutely amazing. Highly recommend for special occasions! All the food was top notch and the bartender pours well!
Incredible flavor and options coupled with the most impressive customer service I've seen-- definitely a 5. We went for a birthday which was scheduled for this recent fathers day so I was pretty worried that it was going to be a piss poor customer service kind of deal with the heavy traffic. It was far from that--- absolutely busy, yes, but every person on waiting staff, including the one who seemed to be the manager, was not only attentive but actually pretty cool. Granted, I placed a reservation via Open Table a few days prior in order to secure a seat but this place is just really something. BEST SERVICE I've ever had at a restaurant. As for the meat, A+++ all the way. Just go here, you won't regret it. Thank you for perfect food and perfect service!
Amazing sensory experience, from the layout to the background music and the food is epic!!! Bucket list status.
We recently held a staff retirement party here for a large group (30) in the private dining area, and it was a fantastic experience. Not only was the food and atmosphere excellent, but the service was amazing!
We have ate here many times and it is always excellent. I honestly have never had a bad experience here. Not only is the food delicious the service is exceptional.
Filet mignon soooo good highly recommend. The leg of lamb had a settle taste of mint irresistible. Over all a great eating experience, considering how busy it was the service was excellent.
Agora is excellent! It was our first time there and we were a party of 9. The staff was courteous, efficient, and quick. We were sat almost immediately and the server was already waiting to help us. He explained how the restaurant worked and had drinks for us within minutes of seating. The food was beyond delicious and abundant. The meat staff was so helpful that when they heard we had a specific meat we loved, they made sure to bring some to our table every time. Our server, Chris, even went above when he heard our daughter wanted more of their house cut (the BEST) and went into the back and requested more made just for her. Lastly, since we were there celebrating a birthday, they brought out a big piece of flan for everyone to share.
Agora gets 5 stars but I would give 6, if possible.
I love this place. The food and service are beyond excellent! If you ever get the chance go there! You will be a repeat customer, I am!!!!!
Amazing food amazing service! Was a great family night out , my only disappointment was the salad bar area and lack of selection including missing the clams! The muscles were delicious and the meats beyond compare! Highly recommended!
This place is great. The whole staff is awesome and the food is fabulous. Great restaurant!
Nice place. Excellent food quality, and great service.
Food is fantastic with so many choices and the service is wonderful. Highly recommend
This place was excellent!! Perfect surprise for my wife's birthday, just like Pampas in Las Vegas!!
Great restaurant and great food and service 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Don't bother with the silly salad bar, just takes up valuable space. I have the steak sweats! And the waiters don't stop bringing the meats. I need a nap!
Excellence ambiance, service and , more importantly, food! I just wish they would open a location closer to me (Coachella Valley) because I can't eat here as often as I would like because of the distance, although it's worth it. 👌🏻
Wonderful Valentine’s Day experience. ‘Twas a set price for the evening, but it included the dinner, Strawberry Champagne, and dessert. Definitely plan on coming back!
I was a tag along to my husband's work dinner and don't eat red meat or pork so not a good choice for me but was not about me. If you are a meat fan this is the place to go. The service was excellent and the passion fruit mousse was amazing. The atmosphere is also lovely.
Exceptional service, food, and ambiance! Loved it!
Came here after a long day at the office! And wow I was impressed! Incredible atmosphere, staff and food. I sure do enjoy drinks after a productive work week. The bar was incredible! I was fortunate enough to be tended by Rachel and Ashley. What a dynamic duo. Amazing service and fantastic drinks. I will definitely be returning, and if I see the two of them at the bar I will definitely be spending more money than I am supposed to lol
Clients had a their wedding reception here - it was one of the best restaurant-venue wedding location. Everyone was so friendly and happy to help, to ensure the couple had the best day possible!
Good atmosphere with friendly staff and delicious various beef. Highly recommended to meat lovers.
We are familiar with churrascaria dining. We moved over a decade ago to the suburbs where dining choices are limited, so when we were in OC and discovered Agora, we grabbed the opportunity. We are so glad we did! We met Luiz our server and he gave us the most memorable experience by giving us tips on how to enjoy the meats... take a bite of meat with a sliver of banana with it, pair the meat with certain items from the salad bar, and the best nonalcoholic drinks available. He also surprised us with a celebratory cake for an accomplishment event we shared with him. What an awesome asset of Agora, isn't he? We have never met a server who is over the top passionate, knowledgeable, warm, and generously eager to share the Brazilian culinary culture with his patrons, we love him!

Come with an appetite & all you really need to order is water to wash it down. Reservations are recommended, but the night we went the restaurant was pretty empty & walk ins got seated just as quickly. There is a salad bar to enjoy before the various meat skewers start arriving. They have paper coasters green on one side & red on the other. If its green side up the skewers arrive & red means your taking a break. Even though we had red up we were still offered various meats which was no bother at all. When you arrive you begin at the salad bar & recommend bringing back an extra empty plate for the meat. There is the usual fruits & vegetables, processed meats & cheeses. Also different types of salads not just green, but pasta & fruit salads as well. Soups, mash potatoes & rice are also available. I recommend getting small samples so you don't over eat plus you can always go back. The meat arrives on a skewer and is cut in small portions. Better to eat it right away as it tastes better hot. Some of the various cuts included filet mignon, flank steak, ribeye, sirloin, short ribs & pork ribs. There was some chicken, but I passed. For dessert definitely the Brazilian flan & the cheesecake was delicious. A bit pricey, but was delicious. Avoid the cocktails & quite a difference in your final bill.
Went to Agora for my birthday. Our server, Jessie, was fantastic. A word of advice: this place is about all the meat you can eat. The shrimp, lamb chops, corazon and pricanha are the stars.
Excellent food, friendly service and great variety of flame broil meats. Lamb chops, chicken, pork ribs, steak. Everything was delicious 😋
This ambience and service was incredible even on new years eve night, impeccable!
My favorite was the house sirloin? But by far the garlic steak. Quality is 4.8 of 5 and service 5 of 5!
Cheese bread puffs are always the best
Cannot go wrong anyway in this scenario at this restaurant
1st time going here and it was a great place, everything was delicious, the side dishes were exquisite. The drinks from the bar , wow. Will definitely go again.
I love their salad bar although they had tabouleh and it was apple salad?. The steak is amazing too. I strongly recommend their skirt steak. Great customer service. Awesome atmosphere. Clean place.
Authentic, great service, great food. As a fellow Brazilian, I’m super happy to support a thriving Brazilian owned business. The lamb and filet mignon were my favorite foods. We drank several caipirinhas and had passion fruit mouse for desert.
Table comes with pão de queijo and caramelized banana. The buffet has ample salad, rice, feijoada, Brazilian chicken estrogonofe, mashed potatoes, and more main entres. I got farofa and vinagrete from the salad and buffet bar.
Highly recommend supporting Agora over Fogo de Chão, as it is a local business!

Loved! Loved! Loved! Sunny is the best server ever friendly and extremely funny. He brings 110% to his customers! Loved! The food was great the meat service was great and the meat 🍖👌😋👍😀 was delicious! I would pick agora anyday over fogo and Texas de brazil!
Always a great dining experience here. The buffet style sides and appetizers are all very delicious. The meats always tasty. A must try place.
The sides are very delicious and they have a great selection. The meat cuts are great as well, however they can be a bit too salty for my taste. Service here is excellent.
Had been here a few times years ago and loved it so my mom and I decided it would be a great place to have her 75th birthday celebration with my brother and his family.
It is a great place for a group since there are lots of choices and it's fun to try new things. The quality of the food is exceptional and the service is top notch. We came on a Sunday mid-afternoon so we could spend more time together and wouldn't be holding up a table for the restaurant.
The price per person is reasonable when you consider all the items available at the cold appetizers and salad bar as well as the hot food bar which accompany the endless meat selection brought to the table. This place is perfect for a special meal or occasion and the desserts are worth the price if you want to really end the celebration right.
10/10 food was amazing. Service was great. Would definitely go back if I were on the west coast again.

Great Brazilian steakhouse. Salad bar has a variety of good options and the meats are cooked and salted to perfection.
Absolutely loved it. I sat at the bar. Had the small bite plate of bottom sirloin and a one trip salad bar. It was the perfect amount of food.
