    Visited Brasa's accidentally yesterday while walking to another restaurant. Initially we wanted to eat at Texas de Brazil, but the wait time was 4 hours. Luckily, while walking downtown we saw the restaurant. At first it seemed to be closed, but a server saw us looking in and opened the door to greet us. Oh boy were we surprised. The ambiance was great and most importantly it was no wait time. We were sat quickly and warmly greeted by our amazing server Makayla. She was sooo knowledge, welcoming and friendly - honestly treated us like family. We immediately went to the salad bar to give a taste test and was pleased! Once we settled away from that we begin to dive into the meats. We had a few favs such as the flank steak (yummy), garlic beef and the shrimp omg omg omg! Albert came over as well to make sure the visit was going well and we absolutely loved his spirit. He introduced us the the caprini drinks and it was very good and hit the spot - specifically the blueberry! While leaving, the owner thanked us for the visit and even gave my little one a balloon. We loved our experience and will visit again very soon.

    For lunch I was amazed at the table service. These guys were on point and checked in you every 2-3 minutes. Fantastic service. One of the best I've seen at a Brazilian Gaucho. The meats are plentiful and it comes out fast, hot, and tasty. Ribeye 10/10- awesome and tender. Picanha 9.5/10- really good and they give you a lot Pork ribs 9.3/10- very tasty. I was surprised at how good it was. Shrimp 8.5/10- good but a little salty Chicken breast 9.5/10- very moist chicken wrapped in bacon. I loved it Wings- 9/10- these were very tasty but no match for the steaks The place is beautiful. See the pics. Very comfortable. Dark like all other gauchos I've seen around the nation. May be the best I've tried, and I've been to many. Would love to try the dinner one day. For the price worth every penny for the tastes and first class service.

    I would stop by around 1 pm. Pineapple is so yummy!

    Brazilian steak, my favorite is the lamb chop and picaña! Very relaxed ambiance and excellent service.

    Great addition to downtown Houston! If you're a meat eater, THIS. IS. YOUR. PLACE!!! The Meats, meats, and the meats. It's like a gigantic roller coaster of meats and shrimp. You want rare, medium, or well done, they've got it. New Zealand Lamb, shrimp, bacon wrapped chicken, bacon wrapped filet, Parmesan pork loin, top sirloin, bottom sirloin, filet- HEAVENLY, ribeye (HEAVENLY PART 2), garlic beef, beef ribs, salmon, pork sausage, and chicken wings. Potatoes, rice, and the salad bar also come with the meal. All meat is PRIME and holy smokes, you can tell! Parking: don't be worried! There's valet ($8 or $10) Want to do a private party: there's two rooms upstairs! I HIGHLY recommend this place, date night, gurus night, guys night. It's really, really good!!!!! Pricing: lunch $36.50/pp dinner- about $50/pp Waiters: Ask for Julio and Carlos! They'll set you up!

    I would give 4 stars because I felt the meat options were limited BUT we can late & last minute so I'm sure that has more to do with our timing than the actual restaurant. Plus, there was a lady who I can assume was in charge in some sense who seemed to be going out of her way to accommodate us. No complaints here at all, would definitely recommend & will be visiting again. Love the atmosphere, great decor, clean & spacious. Everything that I ate was amazing & I thoroughly enjoyed my time.

    Just sat down. Looks pretty neat in here.

    The staff is wonderful. My husband and I celebrated a little here and I loved the food. The other reviews about this place are spot on so the amount of meats they bring by are a bit less than you'd expect but they're still great nonetheless. I recommend the picanha as it was my fave. Go here

    I am a meat lover and a strong believer of you cant go wrong with steakhouses. Hence the second star. However, other than that unfortunately I was not satisfied with the whole experience. First of all, it is in downtown so good luck finding a parking space and expect to pay for it. I happened to have a sprained ankle too so I had to walk for 10 min (5min for a healthy person). Next, even though we were there for lunch and their site said $39.99, we were hit with $49.99 for the full menu. I just checked it again and no where it mentions about $50/person, or that $39 version is limited . If you choose limited option you can buy it cheaper but I was not there to eat 4-5 type of meat where at least 2-3 of them were cheap stuff like chicken and pork. Having said that if you are paying all that you might as well go to Fogo de Chao or similar higher quality places (with parking!) Anyways, moving on, we still ended up getting full menu and let me tell you we were still not impressed. For example, you either love lamb chops or hate it. I am in the lover category but their lamb chop was not even mediocre. I dont know how you can mess that up. Service is good. However nothing about this place felt authentic Brazilian steakhouse, more felt like I was in a Mexican restaurant. I love Mexican food dont get me wrong but I was there for a Brazilian Churrascaria! Salad bar was decent. Again not what I came for.

Something simple that should be an easy win. Unfortunately, everything leaned the same direction: either it was heavy, over-sauced, or overly garlicky. It tasted more like dressed-up frozen food than something thoughtfully prepared. And listen...I don't mind indulgent. But there still has to be balance and fresh food. Fresh like it was raw and delivered today, not fresh like fried in the last 15 mins. When everything is coated, covered, and competing, nothing actually stands out. The drinks didn't help either. They leaned hard on alcohol without much flavor behind them--more "this will get you there" than "this tastes good." Nothing was terrible. But nothing made me want another bite, either. And with seafood, that's kind of the whole point. The atmosphere is friendly, great music, and the service was very attentive. Even the presentation wasn't bad. It just wasn't enough. But at some point, you stop asking what's missing and just accept that it's not landing. I was still hungry so I went next door hoping for a better experience. I want to be clear: It's not bad. It's just not working.

I decided to step outside my comfort zone and try the Oysters Rockefeller... and let's just say they weren't my speed. They weren't bad, just not for me. So naturally I sent them back and ordered my tried-and-true favorite... Chargrilled Oysters with extra garlic butter, Parmesan, and bacon. Now THAT'S what I came for! Rich, buttery, cheesy, smoky, and absolutely loaded with flavor. Every bite reminded me why these are my go-to. And because brunch rules apply... it was only right to enjoy a pineapple mimosa (or two ). Light, refreshing, and the perfect pairing for all that seafood. If you're visiting Goode Co.
