Got a chance to try this Brazilian place in the food garage located in down town Indianapolis. If you've been there then you know they have some amazing food and tons of options. I tried Gauchos for my first time and that Brazilian Steak Sandwich was delicious. The meat was tender and juicy and the sandwich was so full of flavor. I also got to try their sangria and it was good as well. Just wasn't a fan of all that fruit at the bottom. Other than that, the food was great. Service was quick and helpful. I will definitely be going back to them soon. read more

Ambiance: This place is tucked away in a strip mall and somewhat gaudy at first glace but I was convinced by it's glowing reviews. The place itself is actually classy and well-decorated inside with rich wood and leather textures. The unobtrusive Brazilian music sets a nice thematic tone inside. Other reviewer report super fast food times but our experience was much slower as it seemed they made everything to order although it was admittedly pretty empty when we went so I doubt they were churning out large batches of stuff. Food: We got the Beef Chimichurri fries and Ultimate Brazilian Sandwich and enjoyed both. These guys have AMAZING breaded fries that come out blazing hot fresh from the fryer. You could very easily have a unhealthy meal of just these addicting fries alone. The chimichurri beef was very savory with the lightly caramelized onions and tender thin-shaved beef. They did cook the beef in the chimichurri which I was less a fan off as it blunts some of the freshness of the chimichurri and blurs the distinction between the beef and the sauce. I would've preferred the chimichurri as a drizzle or side-sauce but this is just personal preference. The Ultimate Sandwich was definitely the star with perfectly seared beef and flavorful sausage, the tortilla strips were a fun throwback to days of putting potato chips in your sandwiches. Overall Gaucho's Fire is a great dining option, it serves very fresh food with authentic flavors. The portion size is very reasonable and with meat and potatoes being the staples, it will be plenty filling. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try! read more

I really hope this restaurant is doing well. The food and service is always good and they have unsweetened tea now. The Brazilian Cheese Bread is amazing. And it's sorta keto since it is made mostly with cheese and tapioca flour. The Parmesan Chicken is pounded flat and the grilled provolone is amazing. read more

We loved Gaucho's Fire when we lived downtown and would visit the garage food hall. We were excited to see them on the north side of Indy near Castleton. I really love the chicken fries, lots of flavor! We ordered online to go and everything was fresh and delicious. read more

I was looking for something healthy to eat for lunch and the Grilled Chicken Salad was perfect! It was romaine lettuce, tri-color tortilla strips, grilled onions, carrots + green sauce on the side. I asked for Grilled chicken on top for some lean protein and it really delivered! Quite a large portion size, and overall a very healthy meal. Chicken didn't seem too oily, and there was a good amount of the onions and carrots in as well. I didn't even add much sauce - it was overall a nice salad on its own (I usually avoid dressings either way, haha) read more

I've been eyeing Gauchos Fire for a little while, so one Friday my husband and I decided to visit. The restaurant is a fast casual style. Our server was really nice and attentive. The food was ok...we ordered the sharable platter. On the platter was grilled chicken pieces, steak and sausage and in store fresh chimichurri sauce. The sausage tastes like hilshire farms store bought sausage, The chimichurri was ok..didn't bring as much flavor burst as I had hopes. Overall it was ok. read more

Quick and delicious Brazilian food in the garage. I needed a fast bite to eat at the Garage the other day, and the good people at Gaucho's were happy to make some fantastic chicken fries for me. Super tasted with quick service and, of course, the general fun ambiance of the Garage. read more

I visited Gaucho's on a Monday afternoon with some work colleagues. We were quickly greeted by a welcoming server. He was very attentive during the meal. We ordered and had our food in about 5 minutes, making it a great lunch break stop. I ordered the Steak Kabob meal, which came with a salad, rice, fries, and choice of sauce. Salad was good. The dressing was a honey mustard. The rice was good. The fries were delicious and crisp. The steak was cooked to order and had a good flavor. I chose the garlic aioli and it was very good. Overall, I really liked this place and ate literally all my food. Lots of food for the price! Very quick, clean, and welcoming! I'm excited to have this place on our work lunch rotation now! read more

The food was so good! Don't overthink it when you walk in, just sit down. The waitress was so nice and the food came out quick. It's pretty laid back. Perfect for dinner in between shopping or a night out with the husband. Some great Brazilian. We both got steak - I got bacon wrapped and my husband got picanha. The highlight was the Brazilian lemonade! It's a must read more

Their steak sandwich is juice and tasty. I recommend it. Also try their pudim (flan), just an authentic Brazil's dessert. read more

Great little food gem of This Southern Brazilian inspired themed restaurant In the Carmel-Indianapolis Area. Restaurant Staff were friendly, calm ambience with Brazilian tunes playing & food was served with both authenticity & flavorful. Southern Brazilian Gaucho food culture was definitely delivered here and would strongly recommend for anyone who wishes to try this gem as to both reminisce & newly try out cuisine! read more

Great service, good food for fair price, Brazilian lemonade is a must. What a cute family establishment

Wow, can't believe we waited before coming here. So glad we came in tonight. The food was outstanding. We got the churrasco plate, which was the mixed sampler. Sausage, chicken, steak, fries, all of them top notch. Really interesting dipping sauce. And we also had a starter bowl of bean soup that was delicious. Try the Brazilian lemonade, it's frothy and foamy and sweet. Decor was nice. Spotlessly clean. Good spot for a date. We will definitely be back. And it wasn't very expensive. The pictures on the window make it look mediocre. Ignore those. read more

Although the place was empty on a Thursday evening, it won't be for long- once the word gets out. My Brazilian lemonade was perfect and the stroganoff was unique and tasty. The fries were outstanding but when you add the garlic sauce, it was a definite winner. The garlic steak was tender, cooked perfectly and quality meat. The atmosphere is a bit cold and they have those awful, uncomfortable metal chairs but we will excuse it all for the food. Definitely returning. read more

My family (2 adults 3 kids) decided to try out Gaucho's Fire last night and it was phenomenal! The restaurant was so clean & well decorated! They already had up a Christmas tree for the holiday season (I think that was the kids favorite part!). We tried the chicken skewers, bacon wrapped chicken skewers, kids chicken tenders, Brazilian steak sandwich, & the Churrasco Plate! Everything was delicious. Our waiter was also amazing. He was very attentive, kept our drinks full & was so kind to us & our kids! read more

I've visited Gauchos when they were located in the Garage. I love their Alfredo fries. I decided to stop by and ordered the ultimate Brazilian fries. Loaded with chimichurri, steak, sausage, chicken, cheese and onions. The fries looked really good but they were so greasy and not edible. I think if they would've drained them it would've been okay. It seemed they just fried everything in a basket and served it. There isn't much to the restaurant in terms of ambiance I think I'd rather order take out on the future than dine in. The service was fine nothing amazing but nothing to complain about. read more

I've tried Gaucho's at the Garage in downtown Indy and I'm so glad they opened up a new location up north! Their food is amazing, especially the gaucho fries. The sauce savory sauce complements the smokey sausage so well. The service is quick and the owner is super nice. He came to our table to personally ask how we were doing and even started a conversation with us after we finished our food. I will definitely be back! read more

Had high hopes but was let down. Food was good but not much flavor (be ready to use salt and pepper). I had to request for another water when mine was clearly empty. We also had to wait a while for the tab which was a turn off. I ordered the chocolate cake and it didn't live up to my expectations. You can tell it was stored in the fridge and not fresh. It was hard and not soft like a cake should be. I'm unsure if I'll be returning. read more

We tried this restaurant today and the food is amazingly tasty, we order La parrillada, the meat was so tender and juicy , the fries and rice delicious , even the grilled cheese was so good, the chimichurri wow, everything is splendid, and even the server very nice We will be Bach for sure read more

Great food and service! Try the chicken or beef pastels, you won't be disappointed. So much food on the Churrasco plate, be prepared to share. read more

Truly the worst Brazilian food I've ever had. I am Brazilian. Brazilian rice is not yellow rice. Pastéis are not meant to have a sweet dough. The meat was poor quality. Two stars because the server was good. I didn't find any Portuguese speaking people there as I wanted to ask some questions about why they thought this was "authentic". Never again. read more

I'm part of a foodie group based out of the Indianapolis area that visits 1 new restaurant every month and this restaurant was #114. If you'd like to see where else we visit we'd love to have you join our Facebook page "Party of 3!" We started with a variety of appetizers, including Bohlino Do Gaucho (Beef Croquettes), Beef Pastels, Chicken Pastels, Cheese Pastels, and Mozzarella Sticks. While every starter brought something tasty to the table, the standout was definitely the Bohlino Do Gaucho. It paired perfectly with the salsa verde, and the crispiness of the pastels left us wanting to order more! For our main courses, we tried the Churrasco Plate, which is a fantastic option if it's your first time visiting. This plate offers a variety of meat cuts and sides, giving you a true taste of Brazilian churrasco cuisine. We also ordered the Meat Lovers Fries, which were packed with flavor and tasted phenomenal. The meat in every dish was cooked to perfection, and they definitely know how to season their meats! To finish, we had Flan and Churros with chocolate sauce. Both were good, but the Flan was definitely our favorite. On top of the amazing food, the service at Gaucho's Fire was excellent -- our server was attentive and friendly throughout. We would absolutely return to this restaurant again, and if you give it a try, you'll definitely thank us later! read more

Let me start by saying that I am Brazilian, we cook and my mom is a chef back home in Brazil. I understand if you substitute whatever cheese for catupiry, BUT, You cannot get away with microwaved/bagged YELLOW rice. Absurd and an insult to our culture. Pastel dough was weird. If you're not Brazilian you might like it. French fries are awesome and so were the yuka fries. I'll give them that. Ahh plus wine was pretty cheap. Meat was ok. The rice is NOT traditional. So pissed about the rice. How could you?!!! read more

If you have not tried Gaucho's Fire yet, it's a must try in the area. I used to live off Mass Ave and would frequent The Garage often; Gaucho's Fire is one of my favorite restaurants in The Garage. Now that I live farther north, getting an old favorite is a godsend. I have been craving the chimichurri steak fries for a while, but I haven't had the time to drive back to Mass Ave to get it. Luckily for me, Gaucho's Fire read my mind. The service was fantastic, and the restaurant has plenty of options to suit nearly any preference. I also like that they have local beers on tap (for less than the tap at that brewery in my case). The chimichurri steak fries are bursting with fresh, chimichurri flavor, and the steak was cooked to perfection. The fries were crispy and not too salty, and don't get me started on the sauce. It was a large portion, and if I hadn't skipped lunch, I definitely would have had leftovers. I think Gaucho's Fire is the best restaurant in the immediate vicinity on this part of town. It's easily one of my favorites in the price range. read more

This was one of the best meals my family has had in Indy. Our 12 and 9 year olds can be very picky (only ever wanting chicken fingers and fries) and they both DEVOURED all the different meats. Our youngest loved the carreteiro rice plate. When they took the empty plates away our 9 year old said "I miss it already." Haha HIGHLY RECOMMEND! It's a great way to introduce new flavors that everyone will love! read more

A few months ago I tried the Empanada and chicken skewers and my friend had the cheese fries. It was an excellent combination and kept us full. Service was super fast and we were able to eat right away, also if you haven't been to the Garage the ambiance is great and your friends can pick any food they want so I definitely recommend going there but specially come here for the Brazilian restaurant! read more

I'm not sure what the heck I ordered but it's what they recommended and it was basically french fries smothered with steak, chicken, sausage, cheese, sauce, onions, cilantro and little potatoes and it was absolutely fantastic. Served piping hot with lots of flavor and really tasty. There wasn't a ton of french fries, which I consider evil, and they were a great addition to this amazing dish. The service was fantastic as well. The only problem, they need to serve it in a bowl instead of in a basket on top of wax paper. read more

My experience here started a little rough as I had a birthday coupon but staff was a little unsure if they would honor it. It required a phone call, conversations with someone in the kitchen and also checking my ID. After we were all systems go, our order was taken and food came out piping hot and beautifully plated practically identical to the menu picture in no time at all. I ordered the Ultimate Brazilian Sandwich and fries. Everything was cooked to perfection but I will say it was lacking a bit in seasoning. I've never had Brazilian food before so I'm not quite sure if there are unique flavors from there but this tasted just like unseasoned beef. The sausage and onions were delicious but again, it was on the bland side. My daughter ordered the bacon wrapped beef skewer and she had the same complaint of the food tasting bland. The storefront did not have a ton of appeal but the restaurant itself was clean and beautifully decorated. The menus were gorgeous and well put together. The tables had nice place settings and pricing was comparable to a stand alone $$ restaurant so it seemed a little on the high side for what I initially assumed being in a strip mall. Our bill for my daughter and I was $25.91 and that was with my birthday coupon which comped my entire entree. I do not want to deter anyone from eating here as I have had items from their food truck downtown that was amazing! I do think this may have been a one off situation or maybe my palate is just accustomed to a lot of seasoning but I personally will not come back. Drakes was right next door and I probably could have spent less there for better flavor. I hope this didn't sound harsh but I wanted to be honest about our experience. read more

The Brazilian Lemonade turned out not to be my thing, but the Alfredo Chicken Fries were amazing. They were a nice surprise, as I didn't see them on the online menu.

I want to try something else from here, but I'm not sure I can stand missing out on those fries! read more
