Best Brazilian steakhouse experience we've had! My husband and I just had an outstanding meal here and it quickly became our new favorite. What set this place apart was how consistently the servers came around with the choice cuts of meat. At so many other Brazilian steakhouses you can wait forever for the better selections--here they kept them coming on a steady rotation, which made a huge difference. Everything was incredibly flavorful, and the staff was genuinely attentive and friendly. They checked on us regularly without being intrusive and made the whole experience feel welcoming and relaxed. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend! read more

Brought the kids to introduce them to their first Brazilian Steakhouse experience. Didn't even know it was couples night (free dessert). They came around often with meats and also asked us what we wanted brought to us specifically. Buffet was tidy and seemed clean and fresh. Service was good! Reasonably priced for a family of 4. Would recommend. read more

It's worth a trip if you've never been to a Brazilian Steakhouse for sure... you're in for a treat with all the meats on a continual rotation. Great under new management from Cowboys to Lasso! If there's something you haven't seen that you want to try (from their online menu), just let them know and they will ensure that you get on the requested rotation. There were some meats that we didn't see by the time we were already full, but made a little more space just to try it and we were glad we did! The cold bar had many delicious options. That egg salad was stand out (our entire party agreed) and the bacon really set it off! I didn't try the smoked salmon, but I hear it was tasty. As far as the meats, my favorite was the bacon-wrapped filet & bacon-wrapped chicken. Also loved the grilled pineapple and grilled Haloumi cheese with honey. Another thing was different and tasty was the Fried Yucca -- almost like a fried mashed potato! Of course the Brazilian cheese bread was a winner in my book (with a gluten intolerance). So, the BEST part is that almost the entire menu is gluten free (save for the garlic bread--brought around by the gauchos; pasta salads on the cold bar; crackers & Caesar Salad-- b/c of the croutons)! You're greeted as soon as you walk in and the service is great from top to bottom. The drink cart looked delightful and the sangria was sparkling, which was like a nice drink for a celebration. The decor was clean and only contributed to the atmosphere. read more

Friendly crew, plenty of food, and spacious seating! Good for groups, dates, and the in-betweens like rehearsal dinners or award ceremonies. It was restaurant week so got to enjoy the dinner for a slight discounted price. I loved the juicy top sirloin and NY strip options the best. The pichanana meat was a wonderful cut of meat but found it a bit salty for me. Filet mignon was a small portion and dry. The salad bar was my favorite with its freshness and variety of items. The highlights for me included the quinoa salad, dolmas/stuffed grape leaves, tomato salad, and smoked salmon. I didn't have enough room for the warm sides but my fellow party members raved about the mashed potatoes which looked fluffy. The cinnamon pineapple is such a cozy dish to try! The warmth and spices reminded me of the holidays. Alcohol and dessert are not included with the meal but my friends truly liked the sangria. I stuck with plain water to make room for the food. Overall I definitely got my fill of red meats and beef, just have to be patient for it. They offer the breads and fries multiple times but didn't want to fill up on the carbs so stuck to the protein and veggies. This outing will be helpful for my next blood donation! Enjoyed this visit at Lasso Gaucho! read more

Lasso Gaucho was a mixed experience for me. The biggest downside was that no one asked how I wanted my meat cooked, so everything came out much rarer than I prefer. I also noticed long gaps between meats being brought around -- it wasn't the constant table-side rotation I'm used to at a Brazilian steakhouse. The salad bar and sides were fresh and well maintained, and our server was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. One thing to be aware of: the sparkling water and sangria cart are not included in the price, which wasn't very clear upfront. Overall, it wasn't bad, but the pacing and lack of customization with meat temperatures took away from what could have been a better experience. read more

We had our Company Christmas Luncheon here. What an uplifting dining experience. Very polite and attentive staff, wonderful atmosphere. Beautiful salad bar with about 40 different options to chose from. The gauchos brought the Rodizio around with 17 different types of meat ...There was Lamb, chicken, Ribeye steak, churrasco, garlic steak, tenderloin, etc. The churrasco and the Cinnamon pineapples were my favorite although I ate a little of many things. For dessert, my tiramisu was Outstanding!! My husband enjoyed the New York Cheesecake which he said was delicious! I highly recommend! 5 Stars!! read more

Wish I had taken more photos but the food was so good I completely forgot to. Such an amazing experience. Atmosphere was incredible and you never felt like you were going to miss something because multiple times someone would come up and ask if there was any particular meat we wanted or were waiting for. The fried cheese with honey and the pineapple is one of my favourites. read more

The restaurant did a great job accommodating us when they couldn't find our reservation. Unfortunately our server didn't do a very good job describing the putinesca which had literally no fish. The wine was good and the okra was delicious. Not sure I will rush back. read more

I came here to celebrate my Birthday. They were busy but we got seated quickly. The restaurant has a nice cozy vibe to it. Steak is my favorite meat and I knew I wouldn't be disappointed at a Brazilian Steakhouse. They have a variety of choice meats, steaks, chicken, lamb chops, shrimp, breads, all you can eat Buffet and extensive Wine List. You control what you want with the Red and Green Card. They food was wonderful. The service was top notch, the Staff was very attentive and made us feel important. The Manager was phenomenal he greeted all the Tables and helped out the Staff. He thanked us for coming and shook our hands when we were leaving. I highly recommend for good food and exceptional service. read more

The last time I was here was back when it was still called "Cowboys" and that was over 4 years ago. Simply put, it was our least favorite Brazilian steakhouse we've ever been too. Both in food quality and service. I was happy to see not only the name change but what appears to be a whole new management and restaurant team. I can honestly say it is 10x better than what it used to be. The meat came out quickly and not only that everything, and I do mean everything, tasted good! The salad bar and sides were great as well. You can just feel the difference in what it is now versus what it used to be. I did take off one star due to a family of 5 being considered a "large party" which resulted in an automatic 20% tip being added on. Was our service great? Yes. But what if it wasn't and we're still stuck with a forced 20% tip. A family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children) is not abnormal or something new and at fancy steakhouses where you would pay just as much i.e. Hall's they don't consider a party of 5 a large party so it really baffles me that they do this here. read more

Excellent meat choices, fresh sides and very good service. Definitely worth the money, a perfect spot for a celebration!

Everything went well. The service and the food was Great!!! A beautiful place. The restroom was clean. read more

Extremely pushy. All they wanted to do is sell sell sell. I understand it to a certain extent, but once you say no leave people alone. They bum rush you with these little breads and then they don't stop coming at you with food even after you say you want to take a break. I feel like the servers are extremely stressed. It seems like they're all on edge. I watched the owner walk around going to every table for some reason he skipped ours, which we were thankful for, but we did hear him berate and belittle workers in front of customers. I don't care if the food was excellent I will never go back to a restaurant that treats employees in this manner. read more

Wonderful experience. This steakhouse has taken a full 180 degree turn from its predecessor, which was in the same building. Don't be fooled, this new management, variety, cuts of meats, seasoning and service are superb. Ambiance is cozy, lots of folks bringing around the meats, great drinks. Overall, fantastic experience. We have been multiple times and will continue to do so! read more

Listen the amount of great food for the price is remarkable. This restaurant is no longer COWBOYS which was horrible. I have to reiterate to people all the time that it is completely different. The customer service is impeccable, hot bar and salad bar is fresh. I enjoy myself every time I eat there. The setting is great for a date. The manager comes around and talk to the patrons and everything. I give this place 4 stars. I pray they don't change the price it is definitely a hidden gem. read more

Couldn't have asked for better place to go. The food was absolutely amazing. The service staff were very phenomenal. I would definitely return. It is a bit on the pricier side, however it is definitely worth the experience. read more

First time here and was very impressed. Steaks and accompaniments were excellent and plentiful. Service was top shelf and we did not feel at all rushed. The dining room was very well appointed. This restaurant could very quickly become a local favorite for us to dine out at. read more

Our waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable. Food was ok and we were able to get seated at the time of our reservation.

We had a 6:30 Valentine's Day reservation and arrived timely. We were told we had to wait 40 minutes and it didn't matter that we made a reservation. They told us they would text us when our table was ready so we waited the 40 minutes. After receiving no text we went back inside where it was absolutely packed of people trying to talk to the hostess and get their tables that they had booked prior. People were still waiting for their 5:30 reservations at this point and it was after 7pm and we were told we had to wait longer so we left. Horrible experience will not be going back. Also we never received a text that our table was ever ready. I understand Valentine's Day is probably a huge night for them but you shouldn't have an option to make a reservation if you're not going to accommodate to them. read more

Excellent and personal customer service. Salad and food bar is wonderful. Drinks are exquisite. And the ambiance is comfortable.

I came after the name change, hoping to have a better experience. While our server was nice, the constant upcharging without any clarification was annoying to say the least. The way the options were presented (for example, sparkling or spring water with no mention of tap and a cart offering sangria) made you believe those were the only options. While I understand the brazilian steakhouse experience is not a cheap one, I do believe in price transparency. We had no problems with our original server, but the service became abysmal upon shift change. Even with our cards turned to green, the gauchos never circled back to our table after a 15 minute wait. It felt as though there was a time limit (60 minutes) after which food was not brought over. When the manager stopped by, we raised this issue just to be told that we should've called them over ourselves. In every Brazilian steakhouse experience I've had, I have never had to ask for my own food. One should leave a brazilian steakhouse full, not hungry with an unending wait. On to the food, in short - overcooked and very salty. To elaborate, we requested medium well and while some of the meats were, others were not. A major concern was with the various meat options touching each other with the gauchos holding two at a time. As someone who does not consume pork, having a pork option touching a chicken option is wholly unprofessional. They did resolve this matter, but it still caused concern about what could be going on behind the scenes. To summarize, the name change does not mean there has been any improvement. While I did not leave with food poisoning as I did before the name change, I still left this experience dissatisfied with the food and service and will not dine in again. read more

Last night we had a FABULOUS birthday dinner at the old Cowboy Brazilian Steakhouse in North Charleston, now under new management at Lasso Gaucho Steakhouse (for the last three months). We were greeted enthusiastically and seated at once, then offered delicious cheese rolls (which the old Cowboy did not do--this is an innovation). The maitre d', staff and management could not have been more welcoming! My younger son, celebrating his birthday there for the umpteenth time, has always said, "When I go to Cowboy I don't eat till I'm full; I eat till I hate myself." Last night was no exception! He not only got a beautiful complimentary birthday dessert with HAPPY BIRTHDAY written in strawberry glaze on the plate, the whole staff SANG to him as well. They also made sure he got a special portion of hot-out-of-the-oven garlic cheese bread, which he loves, and the broiled pineapple with cinnamon, a favorite of both my sons, JUST KEPT COMING! (My older son estimated he had 6 portions of that alone.) For me, the special treat was the apple salad, which I've always loved at Cowboy, and which now appears to be made with multiple types of apple, all crunchy and fresh! So good I had to have seconds! And the parade of gauchos with their signature meats came so fast and furious to our table that we never had time to clean our plates before they were back with more! (I especially enjoyed the grilled shrimp, which I'm not sure was on the old Cowboy menu... but either way, it was GREAT!) In sum, the old Cowboy Brazilian Steakhouse has become the new Lasso Gaucho Steakhouse without missing a beat, with enthusiastic new management, great, responsive staff and terrific food. Book soon--before you know it, EVERYONE will be going there! read more

Really enjoyed my time at this churrascarria. Many of the servers and staff speak Portuguese, adding to an authentic experience. They serve chicken heart as well upon request which many don't. When it got busy, the manager stepped in and started serving the meats with his staff. The food was well prepared and served continuously. It was overall a very authentic and positive experience. read more

I requested no chicken, pork, or seafood and I like medium rare meat and they listened to me! My favorite was the garlic steak, filet mignon, and flank steak. My least favorite was the rack of lamb. The seasoning on the lamb was too much pepper. They came out fast with the meat and drinks. I'd come again! Rosa was our server and she was so delightful! read more

Food was wonderful and service was excellent. Not intrusive, but always there when you wanted them.

My fiance and I went here for dinner on a week night. We waited for nothing as all staff was extremely attentive. Our drinks never once went empty. Our drinks were strong and our food was amazing. The ambiance was also great. The music was not too loud and food presentation was great. Will definitely come back read more

Food and service was awesome. But I would recommend fasting for the day because it's a lot of food. You don't have to have all of the offerings but it's hard not to. read more
