Pizza-Rio - The Brazilian Way Pigeon Forge

Looking for a unique twist on pizza in Pigeon Forge? Pizza-Rio - The Brazilian Way brings an authentic rodízio dining experience to the Smokies, offering a distinctive alternative to traditional pizza restaurants. At this Brazilian-style pizzeria, servers continuously circulate the dining room with fresh-baked pizzas, slicing portions directly at your table.

The all-you-can-eat format lets you sample dozens of different pizza varieties throughout your meal - from familiar favorites to Brazilian-inspired combinations you won't find anywhere else in Pigeon Forge. The mountain-view setting adds to the experience, with large windows showcasing the surrounding scenery.

For $33 per person, diners get unlimited access to the full pizza selection. While this price point sits higher than standard pizza chains, you're paying for both the unique dining format and the variety of options. The restaurant attracts a mix of tourists and locals, with busy periods during peak dinner hours and weekend evenings.

What sets Pizza-Rio apart is its authentic approach to Brazilian pizza service - servers (called "gauchos") keep bringing different pizzas until you signal you're finished using a card system typical of Brazilian steakhouses. Each pizza arrives hot from the oven, and you can request return visits of your favorites.

While guest reviews consistently praise the novel dining concept and variety of flavors, opinions on value vary. Some diners find the unlimited format worth the price, while others prefer traditional pizza establishments. For the best experience, arrive hungry and pace yourself to try the full range of offerings.
