The "Fazenda Rodizio Bar & Grill Leeds" in Leeds, England, is an exceptional restaurant that brings the South American tradition of Churrasco—a special style of meat grilling—into British cuisine. Located in the picturesque Granary Wharf overlooking the River Aire, it combines the rustic elegance of the Pampas with modern luxury. The restaurant is part of the Fazenda chain, which specializes in celebrating the culture of the Rodizio style—a continuous table service featuring grilled meats. With its stylish interior of leather upholstery, warm wood, and large windows reflecting the water, it creates an atmosphere that is both upscale and inviting. It is a popular venue for special occasions, business lunches, or simply enjoying a delightful evening with friends.

South american cuisine in leeds

Culinarily, the "Fazenda Rodizio Bar & Grill Leeds" offers an impressive variety of grilled meats served directly at the table by so-called Passadores. Particularly noteworthy is the "Picanha," a juicy cut of beef shoulder that impresses with its crispy salt crust and is considered a signature cut. Another favorite is the "Cordeiro," tender lamb with a subtle hint of mint, showcasing the versatility of South American cuisine. The meat selection is complemented by the "Market Table," an opulent station featuring a selection of gourmet salads, fresh vegetables, charcuterie, and continental cheeses—such as "Feijoada," a traditional Brazilian bean stew that offers an authentic taste. Side dishes, like the crispy "Batata Frita," are served fresh at the table and round out the experience. For those with a sweet tooth, there are delightful treats like "Brigadeiros," small chocolate truffles that provide a perfect finishing touch.

The drinks menu is equally impressive and reflects the restaurant's passion for quality. Particularly popular is the "Caipirinha," Brazil's national cocktail, made with fresh lime juice and Cachaça, combining refreshing acidity with a sweet note. The wine selection is extensive, featuring both Argentine and Brazilian wines that pair perfectly with the grilled dishes. Beer lovers have local and international options, while the handcrafted cocktails—often featuring South American spirits—add a festive touch to the evening. Regular events such as wine tastings or Cachaça masterclasses make the offerings even more diverse.

Guests can choose between the intimate bar area, the main dining room, or the open terrace, which offers a splendid view of the river on nice days. Three private dining rooms are available for celebrations or business occasions, accommodating groups of various sizes. The service is consistently friendly and attentive, with the Passadores not only serving the meat but also explaining the history and tradition behind it, adding a personal touch to the visit.

Special occasions dining in leeds

The "Fazenda Rodizio Bar & Grill Leeds" attracts a diverse clientele—from meat lovers who appreciate the variety of grilled cuts to families enjoying the generous selection, and tourists taking advantage of its proximity to the city center and Leeds' cultural highlights.

The restaurant also offers halal options without prior notice, highlighting its flexibility.

We used to love eating there. Last time food was not as good as it used to be. We had to keep asking to get meat to our preference.

Recently visited for my sister’s birthday - the food was delicious (as always) and the drinks menu was excellent. Big shout out to Guillermo, who provided excellent advice, plenty of laughs and, most importantly, kept up with my partner’s pineapple requests! Fab service, and will definitely be back.

My family and I have just had an amazing night out at Fazenda in Leeds. We all thought that the food and drink were top quality. The meat-eaters were very happy indeed with the endless supply of different meats and the vegetarians were well catered for too. The staff were friendly, helpful and very efficient. Highly recommended.

Not sure if the quality of the meat matches the price tag - but overall it was a very good ad definitely worth trying.

The food is always amazing each time I visit Fazenda. Only disappointment was the Wild Star cocktail 6 of us ordered this cocktail and all of us didn't like it due to the taste being a similar taste to a bar of soap (that's the only taste is was similar to) it was not enjoyable but at £12 each week held our nose and drank them. It could be argued that it's an acquired taste, but 6 of us out of 7 all had the same opinion about this cocktail.

EDIT- I have now emailed as requested twice and heard nothing back. 5 of us dined here for the first time at the weekend for my birthday. The initial service was great, however we were bypassed by the meat servers on many occasions, with the tables to the sides of us being offered one after another of beef cuts, while all we got offered was chicken thighs and sausages on several occasions. We had to complain before this was rectified, by which time we had filled up on sides as we were so hungry. It also took a very long time to receive some peppercorn sauce and our plates weren't cleared for 45 minutes after we finished eating. My guests had to ask for my "surprise complimentary birthday dessert" by which time it wasn't a surprise. Due to the lack of service we asked for the £25 service charge to be removed which seemed to changed the waitresses attitude towards us. The food was good when it came, but service was a let down and spoiled my birthday meal.

The place is just fantastic. The staff are all friendly and there when you need them, didn't feel rushed to to eat and leave like some places. Food is beyond words to describe, it was absolutely beautiful. Never eaten a chicken heart before but I must admit it was one of my favourites!! Would definitely recommend to everyone (maybe not vegans lol!)
