Reviews Summary
Bushfire Flame Grill offers a vibrant Brazilian-inspired churrasco experience with highly praised, tender meats and exceptional service. While most guests rave about the attentive staff and flavorful skewers, a few reviews mention inconsistencies in portioning and occasional issues with side dishes or dessert.
"The food was very tasty! I loved their stop/go system, and the staff were extremely attentive even with how busy the restaurant was! The picanha melts in your mouth and the pork crackle was crispy and warm!
I couldn't stress enough how friendly and attentive the staff were! They made the whole experience much more amazing!"

"From the moment you walk in there is a vibe!
Met with smiling staff and having our menu experience explained to us was brilliant.
We chose the all you can eat where sides were delivered (rice, potatoes, beans and slaw) with a chicken and fish taster, then the delicious selections of meat are carved at your table to add to your plate and mix the sides.
Little block on the table with green signalling yes to bring us meat, turn it on its side for a break and red to signal we are ready for dessert.
The kangaroo and cinnamon pineapple was so tasty! As was the fish at the very beginning.
We had a lovely waiter Onur who I promised I would give a shout out to for his hospitality!
You’re da man!!!
We also tried the sangria and loved every bit of our 90minutes.
Highly recommended experience!!"

"everything was tasty and full of flavour and the service was outstanding. all the dishes come in super small portion sizes but you can get more of anything you want, the staff were super friendly and attentive and always checked in to see how everything was going and if we wanted more of anything. we had to get refills of cheese bread and crackling from the starters(so delicious), and also the rice from the sides. even the mains were very small but it ended up being absolutely perfect as i had no idea about the absolute abundance of skewers coming my way. everything was so perfectly timed, the staters were served practically the moment we sat down and then everything just kept coming. could barely finish the dessert, definitely left FULL. will be back."
