History
Chima Steakhouse is named after chimarrao, a traditional drink of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. It symbolizes hospitality and friendship, which they embody at their multiple locations. Gauchos also known as cowboys in South Brazil, were thought to have a diet of almost all beef. The meat was seasoned, placed on skewers and slow cooked over a wood burning flame. The first restaurant of its kind originated in Brazil, and then the Silva Family opened their first U.S. location in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 2004.

My family fell in love with Chimas a few years ago, and I knew I wanted to have some part of my wedding at the venue. It's so nice and a great opportunity for pictures and since my wedding is in the winter, having the indoor cozy feeling is definitely important. My parents had their 25th anniversary dinner about 7 years ago in the upstairs private dinning area and I reserved the same space for my wedding rehearsal dinner. Aline (pronounce Alee-nee) is very responsive and friendly. She was able to rattle off all of my options and answer all of my questions in one meeting. I'm so very happy to be able to host an event here especially so close to New Years Eve.

Dissatisfied

While the planning went well, and I we are happily married, the wedding dinner was a disaster. Aline, the event planner was kind during our year long emails, conversations and meeting. With that said, nothing went as planned the day of. The space was much smaller than we talked about originally, we were offered free valet parking, that we were told was going to be unavailable 2days before. We were served for 1 hour only, needing to ask the staff to bring out more food to the head table. The manager had no clue of our event. We did not get a microphone or video as promised. We were served whatever beer and wine the restaurant chose. We asked for an hour happy hour that we did not receive, my guest paid for their own drinks. The manager was unaware of anything that was planned. The kitchen was noisy during my ceremony. You can hear falling dishes while the nuptials were happening and it is on my wedding video, and no one seems to care. I have contacted the event manager to ask to speak with a district manager and I have received no response. I am unable to reach the corporate office as well. I am disgusted with the treatment and would recommend this restaurant if you are wealthy and can rent out the entire restaurant, as that seems to be the only way to have anyones direct attention to your, hopefully, 1 and only special day.
