Very interesting place to eat. Large salad bar with not so common selects. The men coming around with all types of meat is really different. Many of the selections were tough and chewy but there were some that were delicious. I am glad we tried it although at $75 per person I was expecting it to be better. I don't... More

Had my husbands 50th birthday party here for 15 people and the service and the food was wonderful. The service was good and was pleased with everything. Went on their website and registered for being a preferred diner and instantly got emailed a $20.00 coupon. Great deal.

I attended a company business meal for 16 people. We were professionally served, with agreat selection of entres. The salad bar goes on forever with fresh offerings. The atmosphere was quiet enough so we could talk without screaming. They even accommodated a birthday surprise desert for one of our members. We were also surprised that we were given a Duke... More

We recently visited Chima. This was our second visit to the Charlotte location. The servers were very good and did their best to accommodate what we were looking to eat. The salad bar is great except for the insect that appeared on my husbands roll. The manager came over immediately to assess the situation and asked my husband if he... More

Chima was a great way to spend the evening. The food was fantastic, especially the salad bar, and the presentation and way the food was served was a lot of fun. The atmosphere and decoration of the restaurant was also wonderful. We had a great family dinner and experienced a new way of eating!!

I only go here during Queens Feast ($30 p/p) or if someone else chooses it. Plan your visit in advance cause you want to eat like a bird all day so you can have room to sample all the meats. Only a couple of the dishes are tasty. I only go during QF because I feel like anything over $30... More

If you haven't yet tried the Brazilian steakhouse experience, Chima would be a fantastic start. I have been to several of these types of restaurants around the country, and Chima ranks among the best I have been to. Very nice and upscale atmosphere with excellent service, and all of the food ranging from the salad bar to the mouthwatering meats... More

This is a lot of fun but come with a good appetite. The only thing is that it is a little confusing at first and they need to explain how it all works as soon as you get there. The food was wonderful and the service impeccable

We went to Chima's on a Saturday night while visiting our daughter and good friends in Charlotte. Chimas is an upscale Brazilian Steakhouse located in the heart of downtown where all the action is. The restaurant has a modern decor with white table cloths and rich wood walls. They have a very nice lounge upstairs. Chima's servers are all very... More
