At 4:30 on a Saturday in October, the doors at Leblon Churrascaria on South Holden Road open, a half hour earlier than any other night of the week. Guests planning a fall dinner here usually want to know one thing first: is there a steakhouse fall menu with new dishes? Leblon’s website does not list a separate fall menu. The rodizio cuts stay the same all year. What changes with the season is the salad bar and the dessert list, so the best fall visit comes down to choosing the richer cuts, the warm hot bar dishes, and whatever dessert has rotated in.
Quick Facts — Location: 106 S Holden Rd, Greensboro – Full rodizio dinner: $49 per adult – Salad bar only: $28 – Kids 10 and under: $19 – Changes seasonally: salad bar and desserts – Caipirinha Tuesday: $5
What changes on Leblon’s menu in the fall?
The salad bar and the desserts. Leblon describes its salad bar as more than 24 seasonal hot and cold items, and its dessert menu notes that desserts change seasonally.
The meat service stays the same. Gauchos bring cuts of beef, lamb, pork, chicken, and sausage to the table for as long as your card shows green. Flip it to red and they pause. Leblon’s steak menu guide explains every cut in detail.
Which cuts are best for a fall dinner?
Leblon roasts its meats over natural wood charcoal and cuts them thin. Every cut arrives medium rare by default, but you can ask for medium or well done at any time, and you can ask a gaucho for a specific cut instead of waiting for it to come around. In cooler weather, these three richer cuts are worth saving room for.
Pernil de cordeiro (leg of lamb)
Leblon’s steak menu guide describes its leg of lamb as slow roasted, tender, and slightly gamey. It pairs well with red wine.
Costela de porco (pork ribs)
The pork ribs are one of the richer cuts on the skewers. One guest review on Leblon’s homepage names the ribs as the favorite of the night.
Picanha com alho (garlic picanha)
Picanha, the top sirloin cap, is Leblon’s signature cut, and this version is seasoned with garlic. Not every guest is won over, though. One Tripadvisor reviewer felt the picanha did not live up to its reputation and preferred the flank steak. Since churrasco is carved tableside and you never commit to one cut, try both.
What should you eat from the salad bar in the fall?
Start with the two Brazilian stews on the hot side. According to Leblon’s salad bar page:
Feijoada is black beans slowly simmered with smoked pork, sausage, and beef, often called Brazil’s national dish. Try it over the white rice at the bar.
Moqueca is a Bahian fish stew made with salmon, coconut milk, dendê oil, and palm hearts.
The bar also carries roasted seasonal vegetables, rotating European cheeses, and cured meats. Also look for the herb sauce made daily with parsley, garlic, oregano, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Leblon pairs it with grilled beef, so take a small bowl back to the table before the skewers start.
Cheese bread, garlic mashed potatoes, and fried bananas are brought to the table and refilled throughout the meal, so a small first plate at the bar leaves more room for the meat.
Vegetarian or have allergies? Leblon says the salad bar has plenty of vegetarian options and that staff can walk you through allergens on arrival.
Is a fall visit different from a summer one?
Price and format stay the same.
| Summer at Leblon | Fall at Leblon | |

| Price | $49 per adult | $49 per adult |
How much does a fall dinner at Leblon cost?
The full rodizio dinner is $49 per adult and includes the salad bar and table sides. The salad bar alone is $28, and kids 10 and under are $19.
Desserts, drinks, and tip are extra, and an 18% gratuity is added for parties of five or more. A couple ordering the full dinner starts at $98. Leblon currently runs $5 caipirinhas on Tuesdays, so two of them bring that to $108 before dessert, tax, and tip. Flavors include lime, strawberry, sunrise, and passionfruit, limit two per person with food, 21 and over.
With Leblon Rewards, spending $15 or more and giving your phone number at checkout earns credit toward a reward, up to twice a year.
Which desserts are on the menu this season?
Dessert is ordered separately, which adds up after a $49 dinner. The current dessert menu lists flan in Grand Marnier sauce, tiramisu cake, mango passion fruit cake, and dulce de leche. Because the seasonal desserts rotate, ask your server what is available that night.
