Today at May 22nd, 2026-…read more We are here celebrating my nieces graduation party. We walked in, said our name and party size. We were sat by the host. The table was already decorated with graduation decorations. We asked several times "who decorated the room for us?". Thinking the restaurant decorated for us. How silly of us. The big red manager, Mark, was extremely rude to us. Mark accused us of stealing decorations and a card. Saying- "Why would y'all even sit here". At the least, we were confused. The big red dude kept walking in the room and looking at us. I guess attempting to intimidate us? I personally did not order food because I lost my appetite following the big red man's stank ass attitude. I do hope that the owners reconsider their management staff. I will never be back to this establishment. Our server, Dane, was the only thing good about the restaurant. I am leaving one star purely for him. He was extremely attentive and kind. Had the red man just allow Dane to handle the situation, I would probably be writing a different review.

3 of us went for dinner on a Friday night. Easy to park. Seated immediately. Great service from…read moreDane. Cute decor. Kind of a loud atmosphere. Happy Hour drinks were great but a little small. Food selection quite different than your basic Mexican fare. We all enjoyed our picks. Hard to make a left hand turn to get out of there and go hipbone.

A cooking class for a close group of friends turned out to be the best idea ever. Chef Mary Bass welcomed our lively group with open arms and matched our energy perfectly. She embraced the laughter, encouraged the conversations, and truly brought everyone together. Her cooking instructions were clear, fun, and easy to follow--each of us made fresh, homemade pasta right from our seat at the table! If you're looking for an unforgettable, interactive experience, we highly recommend Chef Mary Bass. She doesn't just teach cooking--she creates joy.

We ordered from here for a staff lunch, but unfortunately was pretty underwhelmed with the quality…read moregiven the price. For 10 people, the amount of meat they gave was barely enough, if not lacking. The best part in terms of taste was the meat, but everything else was just under seasoned and under done in general. The tortillas were unfortunately a miss, as they were super thick and not fluffy as they should be. The salsa was extremely watered down and mild. The price for the whole meal is not worth what you get. The cost of extra sides shown on the website makes you rethink ordering them. The upside? Food was ready at the expect time.

I have gone to this location many times (5-10 times) in the past 5 years or so. I feel like Avenida…read moreand Fogo de Chao are the main Brazilian steakhouses in the area to contemplate. Each person you ask will give you a different answer (preference really). For me (personally), I like the service, food and ambience at Avenida. Especially the meat choices (see menu for more info). They have an enormous salad bar with every fixing you could think of. Now that I've gone so many times, I actually skip the salad bar and go straight meat! My favorites are : bottom sirloin (always tender, juicy, a little salty and oh so goood). Rib eye cap was amazingly good, and Picanha . Others that hit the spot are the bacon wrapped filet minion , beef ribs and the shrimp. That cheese with honey glaze is amazing! Keep in mind, dinner during the holidays was about $65 per person. The sides are okay. I mostly go to the cheesy bread (yes it's fresh, cheesy and good) and the fried banana (not too sweet just enough). They do have desserts but I don't remember any enough to provide. By this point, I've eaten so much meat (and food) I never have room for dessert :) I do see a few people order coffee after their meal for a pick er upper! The drinks are good here. Just depends what you like. I usually get the smoked old fashioned and my wife gets their Calpirinha. I'll definitely be back! Remember to get a reservation through open table!

Every time I visit family in Houston, I gain 5lbs, without fail. This time I happily earned those…read more5lbs here. Celebrated a family birthday here with family and friends. There were about 35 people on a Sunday evening. We were able to reserve a room in the back, which they set up in a U formation. Our reservation was at 7:30pm but when we arrived a little after 7:15pm, it was already set up and we were seated immediately with part of the group. This wasn't my first Brazilian Churrascaría rodeo so I came hungry! They have a wonderful buffet, with salad, grilled veggies, soup (lobster bisque was on point!), cured meats and cheeses. The sides of cheese bread, plantains, potatoes and rice were awesome (filler food that is worth eating!!) We got the signature menu and soon after we had our drinks and salad bar items, the stars of the show started coming. Not gonna lie, I strategically had the best seat in our group and was often offered the amazing meats first. (Muahaha! ) The picanha was delicious! The sirloin was amazing! The beef rib was to die for! This was pretty much true of EVERY offering. The servers were so quick and attentive and generous. At other churrascarías, the most delicious cuts are offered maybe twice if you are there long enough (which is at least 30m) to be offered a second helping. Here, the variety and speed of the offerings made you feel like royalty. I had the Brazilian limeade and that and my water rarely were below halfway consumed before a server filled it to the top. It was a very good drink. Perfect blend of sweet and sour. Any sides or meats requested all came out super quickly. The staff and the chefs are on their game and then some!!! Honestly, this was one of the best dining experiences I've had, despite having a crazy large party. It felt like they were all there just for us, even though they were other diners I definitely let them know how great the service and food were because my gosh, did they deliver!

Went to a wedding here. That's after I got lost in Alvin and had to stop and search google a few…read moretimes to find an accurate way here. It's a terrible location. I understand it is supposed to be secluded, but my advice would be to call ahead and talk to someone there who can guide you, because all the county roads show up under different names in the GPS and Internet world. So just call ahead and you'll thank me. Just look for the place you think Mitt Romney might daylight at and you're there. Ok, so now that you're there you can take a deep breath and relax. The people there are really nice and attentive to your needs. Provided you have a need when there is an open bar at the wedding, mariachis, a DJ, and a frickin' ICE CREAM BAR. Not an Ice Cream "Bar" like a rocket pop...but a bar where you can go and load up on as much Ice Cream as you WANT...man...my inner fat kid was sated, you have any idea how hard that is to do?! Awesome idea to whoever came up with that. The outside are where the reception was held was gorgeous, lots of shade due to the big beautiful trees. In the evening they would turn on the hanging lights that were strung up throughout the yard and it was really nice. The dance floor was nice, seeing as I can't dance for crap..I would give it a 5/5 because it's been as good as any dance floor I might have stared at longingly. The food was good, we started with salads that were really good. The lettuce was crisp and it had peanuts in it, they served bowls of ranch and a vinaigrette I want to say. I had the ranch, but my friend had the vinaigrette and really enjoyed it so that's all I have to say about that. The entree was a chicken in mushroom sauce I wanna say. I just remember it was a little cold because we were greeting the wedding party when it was served so the wind got the better of it. It was still pretty great, oddly enough I remember the carrots served with it the best because I wanted more haha. The night went on and the servers kept the tables managed really well, you didn't have crap strewn all over the place which happens a lot at weddings I've been too. So good job on keeping it clean. We were shooed out at 10 pm, and lots of photos were taken. Overall it was a wonderful and amazing reception, but I can't rate it on my company and the wedding couple alone.

Beautiful event place but lacks planning and organizational skills. - They need to step up their…read moregame with organization. For an event of only about 70 people - they ran out of plates! The flow for the Buffett should have been planned smarter as we were having to double back through the crowd with full hands to go get our Tea. - Drinks go last in a self serve Buffett because you need 2 hands to serve your plate. - With their giant kitchen island the buffet line could have had great flow if planned better. Zero lighting outside was awkward for everyone trying to park and walk to their cars. Everyone was mentioning that. As a former restaurant owner I know they're just asking for a liability lawsuit with their pitch dark grounds. I get wanting to maintain ambiance but on a dark night at least some soft lighting so you can see where you're walking is necessary. The food was good, and well presented, but salt less. When I asked one of the staff for Salt I was told they didn't have any. (?!) "Any? Not in the whole entire house?" Finally a lady brought out 1 set. (For 50+ people?) If you're not going to provide those silverware sets that include the little salt and pepper packages, go to Hobby Lobby and get those sets of multiple crystal miniature salt and pepper sets. An expense of probably about $30 to have a set for each table. The hostess was beautiful and the place is beautiful but I like my events to flow as smoothly as possible so the focus can be on the reason for celebrating and not on the disorganization.

The brisket was super flavorful, and the sausage had a nice little kick that I really enjoyed. The drumstick was a great size and honestly reminded me of those turkey legs you get at the rodeo--fun and satisfying. The ribs could've used a bit more flavor and tenderness; I was hoping they'd fall off the bone but they were still good. The platter also came with BBQ sauce, pickles, onions, and a couple slices of white bread to round it out. Service was quick and responsive, which I really appreciated.
