Show De Carnes express
About This Spot
Nestled just across from a quiet park in Vacaville, Show De Carnes Express invites you into a warmly understated setting where attention to detail melds effortlessly with genuine hospitality. The atmosphere hums with the calm rhythm of a neighborhood favorite—comfortable and unhurried, where familiar faces might nod hello and newcomers are welcomed with sincere care.
Here, the focus is on sharing moments around hearty, thoughtfully prepared meals that feel like they’ve been crafted with friends in mind. Steaks and grilled meats arrive tender and richly flavored, accompanied by sides like plantains and black beans that bring a rustic, soulful balance. Portions are generous—you’ll likely find yourself savoring leftovers the next day, a quiet reminder of a meal well enjoyed.
The pace is relaxed, yet attentive. Staff take time to understand preferences, from the perfect level of doneness on a steak to accommodating dietary needs with care and precision. This attentiveness creates an atmosphere that is both reassuring and warm, where the owner's presence isn’t just a formality but part of the welcoming spirit.
Show De Carnes Express feels like a thoughtful pause in your day—a spot where you can settle in, enjoy flavors that linger, and know you’ve found something genuine in the heart of Vacaville’s culinary landscape. It’s the kind of place that encourages you to bring company, share good conversation, and take a little extra food home as a memory of the experience.

Great taste, a must in the area. The meat was tender and cooked perfectly to the point. The plantains and black beans were superb, absolutely delicious, I will come back just to get those. The place is clean and quiet and it's location is very convenient, just in front of the park. The portions are vast and easily feeds 2, so good value for your money.

We had a fantastic late lunch. Rodrigo made great suggestions for our group of three. After asking us how we prefer our steak, he personally cooked our meal and it was excellent! I've had Brazilian food many times, but at chain restaurants. Pichahas was so much better. The flavors melded so well together. We don't know the Vacaville area, we wanted steak and we like to eat local. We will be back again when we return this way. I loved this meal.

it's hard to tell from the pictures but the portions are enormous and you will go home with delicious leftovers. Staff was extremely courteous and considerate of food allergies in the party. lots of options for gluten-free folks and anybody allergic to tomatoes. they really want the extra distance to make sure we had a memorable meal.

What a lovely place where you're treated with care and feel like family because the owner himself is always available if you need anything! The menu is excellent. I recommend this place to all my friends.

The picanha steak is fantastic. The vibe is very down to earth. The lamb chops were fantastic and so were a few other dishes. The picanha steak (and probably ribeye) are the best items and the chimicurri sauce was fantastic. Located in the heart of the Nut Tree plaza near Fentons, Fujis, etc. Parking is average, and can be difficult during peak hours. If you eat with a family, it's best to get the platters versus the individual orders. Nice the cheapest option, but nice to try once in a while- the meat is fantastic.

I come here for the beef stroganoff. It is one of my favorite dishes in the world, and I love the Brazilian version as much as the European versions. I used to work in Brazil, and the last meal I would have, before leaving each time, was beef stroganoff in the Rio de Janiero Airport. Show de Carnes beef stroganoff takes me back to that time. What more could one ask for.

The best Brazilian Food I ever had in the US (I’m Brazilian). I highly recommend this place and will definitely come back often. If I could make a suggestion would be to add 1 vegetarian/vegan option on the menu. The picanha was one of the best that I’ve ever had in my entire life. It felt like I was home.
