Great service, food is delicious. The staff is always amazing and the restaurant is always clean.

We went back for Brunch buffet on our anniversary and what a great experience! This team cares so much about making sure you have everything you need and will bring you anything that is requested. The brunch is worth every dollar and they even treated us to a free anniversary dessert, which I did not know was a thing. I left way too stuffed! Ambiance is professional and clean. read more

The food here is very flavorful! My son is very picky and I thought we would struggle with finding something he would like but to our amazement he tried everything that was brought out! The bacon wrapped chicken was his favorite! The decor is upscale and I would suggest business casual attire. The whole experience of Casa Do Brazil is unforgettable! You'll just have to try it for yourself to see what I mean!! read more

One of the best restaurants in Waco. $$$ yes but the food from the salad bar to dessert is excellent quality. Certainly the multiple meat choices are all very good but the salad bar is the best in Waco. The staff is well trained and has improved each time I have visited. The wine selections are excellent and varied. The bar is well stocked and served in a comfortable section of the restaurant that is great for conversation. It is a great addition to the Waco food scene. read more

I been in Waco for almost 40 years and hands down the best restaurant I have ever had in Waco

This time we only ordered the salad bar, it is amazing and several options to choose from, bacon volcano is really good. I wish there was just some plain fruit to pick from so not have to take all the strawberries or blueberries out of a salad. Service is good but can be a tad awkward when they just hover over you when you don't need anything constantly when the meat option wasn't ordered. Was nice once we paid so we could actually talk for a few minutes before leaving. :) The restaurant is very nice and clean and everyone was polite and friendly. read more

Almost all of the meat was overcooked. Dry chicken, dry pork, and really? Well done filet migon? For 75 bucks, I'd rather order it to my liking! read more

This place was absolutely amazing! Great food and great service! Definitely worth the price.

The salad bar alone isn't the best but the service and table food service were excellent. Definitely will be coming back. Plan on a hefty table but worth it. read more

Casa Do Brasil - Desert and drink menu - Brazilian Near Me - Waco, Texas

I know it was opening week and a lot of set backs will happen. We felt bad for our server who was stressed and overwhelmed. After 15 mins I had to get someone's attention to get drinks and started on our meal order. The food was overcooked, even when asked for medium rare. The salad bar was a bit small and disappointing. (Not enough choices all around) after visiting several steakhouse, I would say the one in SA on the riverwalk or in ATL have set the bar very high. read more

The service was slow at first . They were supposed to bring out 8 meats and they never did . I will give them another try. The cheesecake was just okay. read more

Was very disappointed I made a reservation for my wife and I to have a romantic dinner for Valentine's Day. I was greeted to a line wrapped out the door and didn't even get a table. This is how you treat customers? Why would I make a reservation to not have a table waiting for me? This was an embarrassment of a night especially when expecting a nice meal. read more

So good! We only got the salad bar because neither of us are big meat eaters. But we left stuffed. Kind of pricey but worth the price! We'll be going back when we're vin the area for sure!! read more

This place is good. I got really irritated because you get a red and greed card, green means bring meat and red is supposed to mean not now.... But you can't have a conversation because people are constantly asking you something. Flank steak and the pineapple was the best. read more

Casa Do Brasil - Brazilian Near Me - Waco, Texas

Beautiful Atmosphere, but Pure Chaos Beyond That I was genuinely excited to try this place, as I'd never experienced anything like it before. I booked online due to how busy they seemed, and when we arrived, the atmosphere did not disappoint. It was beautiful, and our party of three was seated even before our reservation time. The bathrooms were very clean, and the food presentation was top-notch--those were the highlights. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience fell apart quickly. We were seated outside at a dirty table, which took several minutes to be cleaned after we sat down. After that, we waited another five minutes before anyone acknowledged us. When someone finally approached, they asked if we'd been helped. When we said no, they told us to hold on and returned scattered and distracted, talking to us while carrying on other conversations with nearby servers and guests. We were completely confused about how the dining experience was supposed to work. We never received silverware or plates initially. Drinks were delayed, and my husband's drink was forgotten--then doubled due to the lack of communication. The salad bar itself was beautiful, with great options, but the atmosphere was chaotic and overwhelming. We didn't receive proper plates for the meats, so they ended up placing them on our salad plates. We never received knives and had to get up and find them ourselves. The entire staff, including the managers, seemed overwhelmed and disorganized. Our server was constantly interrupted by others shoving POS machines at him while he was trying to help us, and it was clear no one had a handle on what was going on. The disarray was so anxiety-inducing we ultimately got up and left. I understand they're newly opened, but this level of chaos is unacceptable. I might return once they work out the kinks, but for now, it was simply too stressful of an experience. read more

Food was excellent. Great salad bar and meat selection kept coming. Seated right away, new restaurant great service and ambience.

When they say the full experience, they are not lying. Everything from the lamb chop to the pork ribs to the big beef Dino rib and ribeye and that spicy sirloin were excellent. The service was top-notch and the ambience spectacular. I could not believe how nice this place was. read more

This Casa do Brasil is a Brazilian steakhouse in the same way Outback Steakhouse is an Australian steakhouse. Casa do Brasil is an imitation. There is no one from Brazil there! Not a cook, not a waitress, not even the Manager Francisco has ever been to Brazil, and it shows. The ambiance is spot on, the restrooms are spotless, the buffet spread is comparable to a Fogo do Chão- another tourist centric steakhouse. But the Picanhã is under-salted, the gauchos, (the waits staff serving the lamb chops, Filé Mignon, etc) dont know how to cut the meat before putting it on your plate. As a Brazilian, I sipped the accurate caipirinha and closed my eyes and could picture a great churrascaria- Jardinheira in São Paulo, Brazil. Eventually, Id have to open my eyes and realize the truth, I just payed the same price as my favorite Brazilian Churrascaria and received the empty and soulless Six Flags Amusement Park recreation of it. read more

I enjoyed all the different meat options, some hit or miss, but liked that we could try a little of everything. In a way this also made me feel very wasteful though because it was so much food. The salad bar has a multitude of options as well (even for someone who doesn't like salad). Not somewhere I would routinely go due to cost and portions/overindulgence but a nice location for the occasional date night. Atmosphere and service were amazing. It was a little confusing knowing who our server was as there were so many people walking around constantly. Would come back just for the grilled pineapple alone!! read more

My daughter took us for my birthday brunch on Sunday. The wait staff was amazing. Better than a cruise ship. The salad bar was outstanding. The meat kept on coming. Did I mention great service. Went aback and bought a gift certificate for someone special. Will return read more

The food is amazing and the service was great. It's a wonderful place to celebrate or just relax and enjoy the evening.

Wonderful restaurant! The food is amazing. So fresh and flavorful. The staff are professional and accommodating. This is my favorite place for special occasions. It's a special place. The ambience is very nice. read more

Not your typical Waco restaurant. Felt like Dallas Or Houston. Beautiful, delicious...the full "experience" is a little pricey but worth it. However there are many dining options. Not perfect but you can tell they're still training people. Impressive bar! Only complaint is you can't take home your leftovers (at least not from the "experience") so I had to walk away from and waste food which is not my thing. There must be a solution to tasting 15 proteins and being able to take a few morsels home vs people taking advantage and trying to get home with a side of beef. I'll definitely be back but I'll plan better next time. read more

The food was exceptionally good--on par with the best Brazilian steakhouses I've ever been to. The picanha is especially delicious (as you'd expect). But the most wonderful aspect is how kid-friendly the restaurant is. My daughters, being 4, ate for free. Their drinks came in high-quality kids' cups. The chef made special french fries for them for free, just to be extra-nice. I strongly recommend this establishment for families with young kids. read more

First of all the service was top notch. You never had to wait for your next round of sliced beef, shrimp, sausage, or chicken. I'm not a sausage fan so I passed on it, but my son- in- law said it was delicious. My daughter enjoyed the filet, toop too sirloin and the rib eye. The shrimp and chicken was also delicious. Omg what can i. Say about the grilled pineapple other than it was so so so good!!! I give this 5 stars only because I couldn't give them any more!!!!! read more

Coming here I knew it was going to be an experience I have never had before but the staff definitely made it more than I could imagine. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious and how they kept it warm as we watched them walk around was astonishing. I can't wait to come back, I promise you will not leave unhappy or hungry. read more

Better than Fogo de Chao YUMMY!! Tender meat and good salad bar. Nice restaurant and clean bathrooms

We got double charged for our entire meal and drinks. Went back to get refunded and they told us there was nothing they could do. They could refund us but it would be 3 business days. And told me to call my bank and dispute it. That is not good service at all. We have been loyal customers, and did not expect them to do absolutely nothing for us. That was their fault that we got double charged. And now I have to go through my bank and dispute a charge that was not my fault at all. Horrible experience. read more

We were there for my birthday brunch with two grandchildren (3 and 4) in tow. What a fantastic meal and experience! The service staff was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly. We treated ourselves to the whole experience, and I'm glad we did. Every bite of beef, shrimp, lamb, chicken, and sausage was flavorful, well seasoned, and authentically Brazilian. Our Caipirinhas were Brazil at its finest. And they kept bringing new treats for the table. The bar keeper even walked around with champagne and two juices for custom table side mimosas! Kudos!! read more

Everything! The food was phenomenal, the staff impeccably trained and attentive, the atmosphere inviting and refined. We will return soon!

I went on 6/14 for my daughter's birthday dinner and it was horrible... I paid for the full experience but never received the full experience... only sides received was the caramelized bananas... my friend ordered the lemonade took forever to come out and was never asked if she wanted a refill.. we also asked for water with lemons only received water... No organization the servers kept running into each other.. the meat overcooked and dry.. was not offered any kind of sauce... the salad bar small few selections to pick from.. the bacon on the salad bar was about the only delicious item I enjoyed.... for the amount of money we paid we should have had great service and food... the one here is a waste of money.. read more

The meats were great and the salad bar was amazing. The atmosphere and service was outstanding. Will definitely go again.

The staff were so friendly. They went above and beyond to help our picky eat find foods he would eat. They made our evening so special.

Mid Ambiance, bad food and even worse service. This place seems like it was made by someone who went to a Brazilian steakhouse one time and thought they can do it themselves. I payed 180 dollars for 2 people. The lamb tasted like fish and it grossed me out. They have so many employees running around doing absolutely nothing. It was actually pretty funny and entertaining how bad the service was like we were making jokes and placing bets on how many times we would have to ask for something before we actually got it. Do not waste your money. The only reason I didn't give this place one star is because I feel so bad about how horrible this place is. read more

We went for Sunday Brunch, I would rate the service and experience a 10! The food not so much, I'm not a HEAVY meat eater and some of the meat had an odd flavor, I wouldn't say it was nasty, just a flavor I wasn't familiar with. I would've enjoyed more options at the salad bar. The bread, potatoes and polenta they serve as a part of the full experience was delicious. The lemon drop and lychee martinis were great. The ambience was beautiful! read more

We went to eat there with a party of 24 people and the service was nothing short of Great! Ali, was very attentive and made sure we never ran out of water & soft drinks, and even with our adult beverages. The gauchos never stopped coming and everybody was able to leave the restaurant very content with full stomachs! We can't thank Ali enough for engaging with every single guest in our party to ensure we were all having a positive experience! read more

I would call this restaurant spectacular. I'm very familiar with Brazilian food, so I can say it was excellent. Starting with the hot dishes, the feijoada was full of flavor and the rice also excellent. The farofa was much better than I've had at any Brazilian restaurant in the US. Someone actually knows what they're doing. The salad bar wasn't my favorite but it was pretty good. The meat cuts for the rodizio were excellent. My favorite, garlic picanha. Yummy . Our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable, even though it was only her 2nd day on the job. I was impressed with how comfortable she was being her 2nd day. Overall, it was one of the best Brazilian restaurant I've been to in the US, better than Fogo de Chão, for a more personal experience. Only negative, not a single Brazilian anywhere, which was disappointing to me. You should hire some! I will definitely return!! Way to go Casa do Brasil!!! read more

Everything you could want from a steakhouse and the salad case had a lot to choose from.

I've been to several Brazilian steakhouses before and usually enjoy the experience. However, me and my family went on 5/3/25 and left quite disappointed. The staff were kind but clearly overwhelmed. Every piece of meat was either overcooked and rubbery or had too much seasoning (such as garlic). It was my birthday and was offered a complimentary dessert, which seemed appealing at the time, but the dinner was so bad that we decided to leave without trying it. This was their opening weekend, so I hope they can turn things around. After this experience, however, I don't think me and my family will be returning. read more

The restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The salad bar had a nice variety and was delicious. Lots of fresh options. The polenta fries that come at the beginning of the meal with something I've never had and I really enjoyed them. I have a cinnamon allergy and the staff was very good about finding out information for me. Still not sure if the bananas have cinnamon or not, though. Every single food that we tried from the gauchos was perfect. Loved the garlic roll. All the meat was just cooked exactly like you like it. The gauchos could find the exact doneness that you would prefer. They are very skilled at cutting And serving. Some even made recommendations of their favorite meat which I enjoyed. My whole family was very happy. They can't wait to go back. I think I'm going to have to fast for the day. I go back because it's so much food and it's so delicious and you wanna keep eating it. My husband said he felt like we were trying to eat as fast as we could before our stomach realized how full it was. Lol. Very glad this is here in Waco. I just wish we could afford to go more often. Perfect for a nice meal out celebrating though. They even had my favorite Moscato wine that I love and enjoyed so much. They could've given me a little bit more. My husband got an old-fashioned and really enjoyed that as well. Great place. I do love that they take reservations too. read more
