I dined at Texas de Brazil on a Monday evening. When I arrived, it was very quiet, only a few…read moretables filled. Texas de Brazil is a Brazilian steakhouse offering all you can eat flame grilled meats and a salad bar. The offerings were fresh, servers were kind, and service was timely. The salad bar had everything from rice, vegetables, and bread. My favorite appetizer was the brazilian cheesy bread! Our main server, Rosemary, was the highlight of our dinner. She checked in on us often, provided great recommendations, and kept the atmosphere lively.

Absolute 5-star, full-send, meat-sweat glory. Texas de Brazil at Crossgates Mall is an experience,…read morenot just a meal. The atmosphere is upscale yet energetic, the service is nonstop, and the parade of meats just keeps coming--perfectly seasoned, expertly cooked, and carved tableside until surrender is declared. From filet mignon to lamb, pork, and sausage, everything hits. Pair that with a massive, high-end salad bar and polished ambiance, and it feels like a celebration every time you sit down. Yes, the price is high--but once the gauchos start circling and the plates stack up, it's 100% worth it. Bottom line: come hungry, pace yourself (or don't), and accept the inevitable food coma. This place earns every bit of its 5 stars

Between the 3 of us, we selected a vide variety of charcuterie, salads and sides. The salmon was tender, the taboleh was fresh, it was all wonderful. The staff could not have been more accommodating, especially our server, Thomas. He paid special attention to my nibling, which was so appreciated. All of the meats were tasty, especially the picanha. The lamb was epic as well.

I went to Texas de Brazil in Hartford during a layover and somehow ended up having Thanksgiving…read moredinner there, which was not on my bingo card but worked out pretty well. They had all the usual Thanksgiving foods along with the regular Texas de Brazil selections, so there was no shortage of options. The cranberry sauce wasn't my favorite, but the overall food and vibe made up for it. The servers *would not stop* coming by the table with meat selections, we could barely catch our breath before another skewer appeared. Not exactly a complaint, just impressive dedication. Our waiter, however, was perfect and kept everything running smoothly. The floors were extremely slippery, which was a little alarming, but guest services were excellent. We also made a last-minute reservation, and it was surprisingly easy. Overall, it was a fun, memorable meal and a great way to spend my Thanksgiving.

I don't know about calling it Rudisio-type but it's something in line of that & a buffet and you have your stuff onto a plate, they weigh it & that's the method they use.

My sister had been here before and knowing that we love a more intimate setting, this was perfect. There were 12 of us. We each did the buffet. They serve beer by the bottle and wine by the glass. Juice is very reasonable. A regular is $3 and the large $6 (giant cup). I had Mango, sis had cashew, brother had guava. All were delicious! Check out my pictures for the food selection on the buffet. The pork was moist and juicy, the yellow rice with beans was favorite by everyone! There was fresh fruit cut up and even rice pudding. I'm very pleased. The meat was actually seasoned. They have the specialty meats that you can get also for an additional price. My granddaughter was THRILLED! Good food, good atmosphere, friendly staff. I'll definitely be back. (Plus its super close to my parents house...I can grab food, no waiting, and bring it over! Win-win!)

Lunch today at Banana Brasil Grille in Waterbury. I went with the $14.95/lb Meat only option. My…read morelunch certainly "filled me up", but like other fellow Yelpers have stated in their reviews, some of the meat selections were very salty. The meats that were not as salty tasting were on the bland side, I just kinda expected to experience "more flavor", and it simply just wasn't there. I lived in the Deep South for a year, and the Q found in that region simply blows away what I experienced today. Maybe it's not a fair comparison, but I couldn't help but think that. The location of the Banana Brasil Grille is conveniently located near Rt8, so it was easy to get back on to the highway to continue my journey after my lunch. Overall, I'd say it was a mediocre lunch, I can't see a reason for a return visit. A weak 3 Star Rating, IMO.

A great variety of meats, Brazilian classics, juices, and desserts! Fair pricing too. Can't believe I hadn't been here sooner, and we definitely won't let so much time go by again before our next visit!

This is an extremely popular blue collar spot in Danbury that became really special to me as a undergrad student and has remained an amazing place. The Pao de queijo is amazing with the right balance of chewiness with a nice crust on the outside. Picanha and beef ribs are also outstanding-- the ribs are incredibly rich, tender and flavorful. The beans are also seasoned to perfection. Hot bar is also really nice and overall you can make a really satisfying, personalized meal for yourself at a reasonable cost. I recommend coming before 9 PM because they start running out of stuff and hot bar looks rough at night. Also definitely give the complimentary spicy peppers in oil a try-- super spicy but delicious.

My tip: order rare, so when it gets home it isn't overcooked. We have ordered delivery but the steak comes overcooked so it's better to actually go there. Also, when you order via door dash they don't give options for the pork and pineapple. If you haven't, give this place a try. Worth it.
