Brazilian churrascaria · $$$
Rodizio Grill
All-you-can-eat Brazilian skewers in the old Union Pacific freight house near Coors Field.
Rodizio Grill is the American Brazilian steakhouse chain's downtown Denver outpost, in the long brick Union Pacific freight building at 18th and Wynkoop that it shares with the Ice House Tavern. The format is fixed price and unlimited: gaucho servers work the room with skewers of picanha, chicken hearts, grilled pineapple, and a salad bar that is better than it needs to be. Full rodizio runs $52.99 at dinner, $32.99 at lunch, with a salad-only option and kids' pricing. Parking is validated at the 1615 18th Street garage with a full rodizio purchase.
Why go. Feeding a large, hungry group before a Rockies game without negotiating a menu.
Thursday and Friday lunch is the cheapest way to do it; validate parking at the 18th and Wazee garage.
