Wanted well done meat. Everything was rare with blood in. Asked again for well done and was completely ignored. Never came back to our table. Rude staff. Was charged for the vegetarian option which we didn't have either. Only a small amount of salad. Almost £50!! Would never go again or recommend!

I rarely feel comfortable taking my daughter anywhere alone she is SEN and the looks we get make her worse. Not only do the staff here go out of their way to help both me and my daughter, they also cater to genuine allergies. This means that my mum can join us and this helps my daughter feel more relaxed.Their disabled toilet being actually restricted to those who are disabled helps me to avoid accidents too, overall I think the staff are amazing and those with disabilities (SEN or physical) can feel comfortable here and those with potentially fatal allergies like my mum can safely eat here without riskDietary restrictions: My mum has a potentially fatal wheat allergy and Favela is one of the few places that accommodates those with genuine allergies. They have even gone so far as to bring a fresh meat out because it had been touched by wheat despite everyone being asked to not do thatKid-friendliness: My daughter has been coming here with me and her grandparents since she was a baby they are so accommodating to children and the only complaints we have ever received have been from other diners who don't like the fact that a single mum brought her sleeping baby outWheelchair accessibility: The layout is very spacious and the staff are more than willing to move chairs etc to help wheelchair users

I went to favela yesterday 16.3.2024 and customer service was awful, as soon as I got on the table even tho I didn’t had no food in my plate one of the kitchen guys that serves meat tried to offer me some and I said I wasn’t ready yet the guy got upset because I told him that’s and never came with meat to my table again , bear in mind I’m a regular customer spent over 500 pounds doing my nice birthday there and always taking big groups for lunch and dinner , what got me was that I got there at 15.50 and evening meals start at 16.00 so I asked one of the employees to serve me picanha with garlic and they told me I couldn’t have it because they put me on lunch section because I got there at 15.15 when it was a lie I got there for evening meal and then they had to call the owner to ask if they could switch witch they said I couldn’t , after all that I just couldn’t stay there any more second awful kitchen staff treated me like a dog and kept laughing in kitchen while staring at me !!! I did let them know that I wasn’t happy and then two kitchen staff members should be fired!

We absolutely loved our first visit to the favela.The staff are so lovely and friendly. The food is absolutely delicious ?I'd highly recommend you give this restaurant a try.
After an unexpected change of plans, my family and I found ourselves at Favela, a Brazilian restaurant where a variety of meats are brought to your table as long as your marker is set to green, offered a continuous culinary delight.As someone who has enjoyed this style of dining before, I was particularly impressed by the quality of the cooking at Favela. The beef, especially the rump and picanha cuts, were standout dishes for me, cooked to perfection with flavors that truly stood out.The authenticity of the experience was heightened by the staff, who appeared genuinely Brazilian, adding an air of authenticity to the meal and clearly took pride in the cuisine they presented. The chicken thighs were another highlight, perfectly textured and flavored. The sirloin and lamb followed suit in excellence, leaving no room for disappointment.While the salad bar was satisfactory, it was the meat that truly captured my attention, with its rich flavors and tender textures dominating the meal. A pleasant surprise towards the end was the cinnamon and sugar-coated pineapple slices, a delightful sweet treat that perfectly rounded off the meal.Although the staff were noticeably busy, their friendliness and efficiency did not waver, contributing to a warm and welcoming atmosphere.Favela provided an exceptional dining experience that was both unexpected and thoroughly enjoyed. The combination of exquisite meats, authentic atmosphere, and friendly service has ensured that we will certainly be returning in the future. Picture to follow.
