 My SO and I go regularly. I love the food and the atmosphere.

 It's not cheap. I think a full buffet and meat selection is about $20,
 but it is truly all you can eat and more.

 They have a very nice salad bar, a full buffet, and then they wander
 around with big 'swords' of different meats. Our favorites are the duck,
 pork loin and lamb.

 Enjoy!

 Yes, my husband and I went to Green Forest with another couple last
 October.  We really enjoyed it.  Go when you're VERY HUNGRY.  The meats
 are grilled to perfection, and the salad bar is fantastic.  When we
 went, it was $20 for all you can eat.

 It's a Brazilian style restaurant, we've been there a few times and love it.

 It's all you can eat for one price, they have two very elaborate buffets
 - one hot on cold - with everything from fresh fruit, prepared
 vegetables, steak tartar to black rice and beans for sides.  Then
 through out the evening servers walk around the room with various types
 of meat on large metal skewers that are prepared in the wood burning
 oven - everything from duck, lamb, turkey, prime rib, brazilian
 sausages, you name it and eventually it will appear at your table.

 It's a tad pricey but if you come with a big appetite you can really get
 your money's worth.

 People who've got to Green Forest with us and then tried the Brazilian
 style restraints in DC and New York have reported back that Green Forest
 blows the others away.
