My daughter and I went to lunch to a place called La Estancia Steakhouse. This is a Brazilian type steakhouse and is uniquely located in the Irving Mall, in Irving, TX. The restaurant is very roomy, soft instrumental music playing and was very clean, neat and very well organized. The atmosphere was delightful. As my daughter and I walked in we were immediately met by a distinguished gentleman by the name of Mr. Anthony, who is the manager of this fine establishment. He was very welcoming, with a kind smile and very accommodating. He told us about the meats being served the hot foodbar, and the amazing saladbar and brought us a small dish of hot puffy cheesy bread that was truly at another level. As my daughter and I attacked the salad bar it all looked very delicious and every salad item on the salad bar looked fresh, well organized and amazing. As we sat down another gentleman came out his name was Mr. Daniel, he rolled a cart with a large round Mozzarella cheese wheel. As we sat there he took out a chef's food torch and began to melt the center of the Mozzarella cheese wheel. Along side of the cheese he had a medium size ramekin of Alfredo noodles. He kept melting the cheese until it almost became liquidfied and then took the ramekin of noodles and dropped them in the cheese and pulled them out and served them to us covered in cheese and wow, what a transformation. The noodles were very cheesy and delicious. Mr. Anthony arrived with our drinks Mango juice and Dr. Pepper. Then and other gentleman Mr. Carlos brought out the fare of meats, pork ribs, lamb, chicken legs and hearts, skirt steak, rib eye and other meats that I lost track of all types of meats being served. All the meats were well seasoned very tasty. Lastly he brought out grilled pineapple with cinnamon and it was very delicious. I tied the guiso, rice and black beans from the hot foodbar and it was truly awesome. I was so full I just couldn't not try anymore of the hot foods. Every employee there were awesome and and efficient, friendly and well trained in their jobs. This is very indicative of a great manager like Mr. Anthony. The saving grace of this place it that you can walk out straight into mall so you can walk off all the food one eats. Please come support these awesome people say hello to Mr. Anthony, Mr. Daniel and Mr. Carlos. Hope to see you there. read more

My husband treated me to a special dinner at La Estancia, and for a restaurant located inside a mall, it truly did not disappoint. This Brazilian-style steakhouse offers an impressive variety of meats, including several cuts of beef, chicken, pork, and sausages, along with an all-you-can-eat salad and fruit buffet. Every cut we tried was tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. One of the standout parts of the experience was the tableside pasta wheel, where the chef prepares fresh Alfredo pasta right in front of you--rich, creamy, and made from scratch. Dessert options are also included, like flan at the buffet, but I couldn't resist going back for seconds of the grilled brown sugar-glazed pineapple. It was so good! The ambiance was romantic and upscale, with dim lighting and live music playing throughout the evening. We were even serenaded by a violinist performing popular hits in such a beautiful, classic way. Service was outstanding, and I loved the light system they use at the table to signal what you need--blue for meats and white for drinks--making everything seamless. Come hungry and leave full--this is definitely a place worth visiting! read more

This place is pure awesomeness! The decor is beautiful and the lighting is perfect and I especially liked the music! We went on the weekend for my husband's birthday and he was very pleased with this place. The salad area and hot foods were very good. The meats were amazing from the ribs, sausage, chicken, sirloin, pineapple and more. There was a gentleman that came to our table with this huge round cheese and melted cheese for us and added to some pasta. It was very delicious! The people here are so nice and accommodating. This is one of our new favorite restaurants. read more

5 star for Service. It was excellent! Everyone was really attentive and friendly. The manager on duty, Anthony was great. He made sure we got the temperature of meats we wanted. Meat was seasoning was flavorful. We always request for medium rare meats. Their pricing is half of what you would have paid in other Churrascarias. Please manage your expectations. The cold bar has something for everyone. Has salads, cheeses, olives, fresh fruits etc. The also have a hot bar which has empanada, friend plantain , rice, beans etc. They also have the cheese wheel where they do the pasta. Request for it, it was very cool to watch. read more

A solid steakhouse that won't break the bank. For $24.99, the menu offers plenty of options to satisfy your appetite. Salad Bar - Decent variety, including cold cuts and chicken salad. The warm items weren't particularly appealing to me, and they could improve the soup for the beans, which were quite runny. Meats - All the meats were great, especially the garlic beef and spicy beef, so good that I had to ask for seconds. Special mention: The flan at the salad bar is a must-try! read more

Came in, no reservations, immediately seated. Lots of options to choose from and like others said- you won't break the bank! Food was really good and service was great! Definitely recommend coming in - you'll be taken care of! This place is a bit more casual than other Rodizio style restaurants but the food and service are still pretty good! Enjoy! read more

Visited La Estancia with my coworkers the Monday after Valentine's Day, it was not what we expected :( we were the only customers at 12:30 pm lunch time. We requested medium rare on all meat choices. The meats brought to our table were over cooked with no flavor. The customer service was extremely slow each time we needed outlets waiter he was on his cell phone not being very attentive. The salad bar area choices were very limited on our visit. We told the waiter and manager that we were celebrating a birthday it was never acknowledged. What seemed to me the manager was at the bar area watching the television the whole time we were there. Wish I would have chosen another Brazilian steakhouse for our lunch plans. read more

The service was excellent! Choices of salad, pasta in general very fresh. However meat could've been more tender. There is not coffee available yet but in process .The restaurant has been open for about four months. I wish them well. We will be back in few months to see if they have improve more. read more

Great food, amazing service and amazing ambiance. Price was great too for the experience. My husband and I went there for our anniversary. This place made our anniversary special. I'm planning a visit with our daughter next. read more

This is a Brazilian style restaurant without the Brazilian pricing. The food was outstanding. The variety of meats was good. The salad bar and the hot bar, while not as extensive as other places was great. I didn't get a single thing from the salad bar or the hot bar that was not just yummy. I got lemonade. Surprise. You pay for each lemonade. Surprise. It's made from scratch each time. It tasted like fresh lemonade, not that stuff you normally get. This is a new place and it is worth the visit. read more

I'm here now and oh damn, this food is great. Great flavor on the steaks, super friendly staff, and highly recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone. Pricing is definitely great as well cause I came during lunch price. A++ read more

We came in to celebrate a birthday and we're all glad we did. For a Friday night it wasn't packed i did worry cause other places you'd see more people but was i wrong to be worried! Anthony one of the managers made sure we all felt welcomed and truly made it a wonderful experience. He checked on our table often to ask if we needed anything, would refill our drinks and ven made our 6year old who is very shy and quiet play around and conversate with him. The food has amazing tase, everything is very flavorful, and they give you good size portions. The waiters were very friendly when coming with the cuts of meats and even asked if the cut was okay or if we wanted a different temp on the meat. The hot bar and salad bar had options for everyone. They have a pasta presentation table side and it's an awesome experience for everyone. If you get the chance don't miss out on the chicken salad, chimichurri and flan. Everything here is amazing the restaurant is very clean and presentable. You can have a conversation even when they have music playing. We've been places where you can hear the noise from all the conversations and even get headaches here its very relaxed, homey and elegant. Will definitely be coming back soon! read more

Went on a Monday night for a great special, $25! Almost empty. Surprising because the food was so good. Picanha, top sirloin, leg of lamb, and sausage, all great. Trr rush the garlic picanha. Most robust garlic flavor. Nice salad bar. I could make a lunch out of their chicken salad. The desert flan, on the buffet, might have been the best flavored flan ever. Constantly attentive service. read more
