This has to be the overall best experience we've had at a restaurant in Omaha! Cold bar was great and we shared steak on a sizzling salt block. Staff were very friendly. This is our top choice for date night. read more

We celebrated a friend's birthday at Terra Gaucha in Omaha and had such a great experience! We did the Ultimate Churrasco Experience, and there was SO much food. Between the endless cuts of meat, the sides, and everything brought tableside, you definitely won't leave hungry. The highlight for me was the A5 Wagyu. It was finished tableside and was incredibly tender, rich, and flavorful -- easily one of the best steaks I've ever had. The entire experience felt perfect for a birthday or special occasion, and the service made it even better. We actually drove about 2.5 hours from Kansas City to visit, and I'd absolutely make the drive again. Definitely add Terra Gaucha to your Omaha list! read more

We visited this on Father's Day, so it was extremely busy, but overall it was a great experience. Making reservations online was quick and easy, and I highly recommend reserving a table ahead of time because this place stays packed. Despite the holiday crowds, we were seated quickly and the service remained attentive throughout our meal. There were plenty of servers on the floor, and someone was always stopping by to check on us and make sure we had everything we needed. It's loud with all everything going on but it didn't bother us. The salad bar and hot bar had good selections. There was an impressive variety of fresh salads, sides, and hot dishes, with plenty of options for everyone. You could easily make a meal just from the buffet offerings. The meat selection was good, although not every cut came around as frequently as we would have liked. Because of how busy the restaurant was, there were a few meats we were hoping to try that took quite a while to make their way to our table. That was really our only disappointment. The cocktails were excellent. The dessert we tried was also great. The restaurant also has a large parking lot, making arrival and departure easy even on a crowded holiday. This is definitely a place to go when you're ready to indulge. read more

Amazing!! The service was outstanding. I was a little nervous to try as I'm not a huge steak fan, but every slice was outstanding. They had amazing salmon and shrimp that came around as well. Even the bacon wrapped chicken was delicious. Their cold/warm bar has so many options! The warm bar had scalloped potatoes with Alfredo that were outstanding. I know I already stated this, but I cannot get over how friendly and attentive the staff are! They made for an amazing experience and I've been telling everyone to go. Cannot wait to go back. read more

Best salad bar ever! This isn't your run of the mill solid bar with different lettuce and toppings. They also include a hot bar with soups and potatoes, and even bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers. There was so much to choose from. I wouldn't have been able to try at all. There was a charcuterie board, fruits, veggies, mini wedge, salads, crab salad, and even delicious seafood. I had read great reviews and they are 100% true. This place is clean, beautiful, organized in the ambience is perfect for a date night or like me and my husband just a regular lunch date. Our server Isabella was very helpful and extremely friendly. The food was delicious. I highly recommend 10 out of 10. Do not skip the lemonade. It's the best lemonade you will ever taste!!! I definitely know where my new favorite salad bar is at. read more

My husband and I came here on New Year's Eve because we wanted to end the year with a delicious meal and that's exactly what we got! We were lucky enough to snag a reservation on such a busy night. We were greeted right away, and our main server took great care of us throughout the evening. The restaurant itself is beautiful. This time we were seated in a different area than our last visit, which felt more intimate and quiet. Something we really appreciated. This was our second time dining here, with our first visit being opening day, and everything is still just as good. We started by selecting items from the hot and cold bars, then flipped our cards to green so the meats could start coming to the table. The standout for me was definitely the steaks perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We can't wait to come back for another special occasion or date night! read more

Another wonderful experience at Terra Gaucha! We took the opportunity to stop in for an earlier meal and enjoyed their lunch hours from 11 to 2 PM Monday through Friday (longer hours that extend through the afternoon on Saturday and Sunday). The lunch menu offers all of the evening experience only at a lower price and gives you a little extra time to digest as there are just too many goodies, both on their salad bar and on their meat selection, to turn anything down! As always, the restaurant was immaculate, cozy with some Brazilian jazz playing to offer a relaxing afternoon. The staff was amazingly attentive, and I know that we will be back again to enjoy this time of the day, which is a little more laid-back. All I have to say is run, don't walk, to this wonderful Omaha restaurant. Take note that this restaurant is also offering wine, pairing dinners, and special discounts for veterans in the month of November. Check their website for additional information. read more

Pretty good place , I went during lunch for my birthday. The service was great and the hot and cold bar had a lot of options. The flank steak was out of this world and my favorite thing I got. They also gave me a free birthday dessert. I will say I didn't know they charged for bottles of water that they frequently offer and refill so just beware of that. Overall good experience but not somewhere I'd go often read more

Terra Gaucha - Blueberry mojito - Steakhouses Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

A welcome addition to the West Omaha food scene. Terra Gaucha is a Brazilian Steakhouse that appears to be very popular during our first visit. Dining room is large and separated into three distinct areas. Main dining room and two outer areas that are very bright with large windows Very important to make a reservation through Open Table. Can't guarantee a table if you do a walk in. The restaurant has a great hot and cold bar with a large variety of options to choose from. Start off with a lobster bisque or black beans and rice or a little taste of beef stroganoff. Try the shrimp ceviche on the salad bar. Lots of tasty items to choose from, but don't fill up on this. Every table gets polenta with Parmesan as well as cheesy biscuits which are delicious. The table also gets mashed potatoes (very tasty), and baked banana's with cinnamon sugar. Gaucho's walk the floor with a variety of meats and seafood to choose from and they will slice it off the skewers and serve it directly to you. Selections include filet, top sirloin, lamb, pork, shrimp, salmon and a number of other things. There are also large pieces of grilled pineapple. Wine list is pretty decent. Any leftover wine can be corked and then sealed in a plastic bag for transport. Dessert selection is large. Choices include flan, crème brûlée, passion fruit mousse, cheesecake, molten lava cake and key lime pie. Flan and Passion fruit mousse are very good. Service was excellent. If you don't see something coming out or you want it a bit more well done, just ask and they will cook up some special for you. Kind of pricey, but worth it especially if you are doing as part of a special event/night. read more

I first visited Terra Gaucha with the Yelp Elite Squad (woot!) and my husband was so jealous when I waxed nostalgic about how great it was, that he demanded we go, FOUR days after my Yelp event visit. I had been to Brazilian Steakhouses (churascarrias) in Brazil, and Terra Gaucha was honestly the closest to the style of the actual Brazilian versions. Two of our servers who we chatted with were both actually from Brazil, which is awesome. Our Yelp Event had been in the side room that is sometimes used for events, but when we went back as normal diners, we sat in the main dining area. Both areas are very nice and upscale with black, white, woods, and glass. When we were seated, the bread course was already being served. Little cheesy puff pastry buns and polenta cakes. Both were delicious, but I think my favorite was the warm little cheesy bun! We next went to the salad bar, which is so impressive with a ton of options. Our favorites from the cold salad bar were the shrimp ceviche, wedge salad, tortellini, and the apple salad. The hot bar faves were the stroganoff, lobster bisque and corn bread (tip: dip the corn bread in the lobster bisque - so good!) The meat courses were brought out by the gauchos, and they were all super friendly and patient with me and my husband when we asked for clarification on which cut of meat they had brought us, etc. Just all around great service from everyone we interacted with. My favorites were the salmon, the grilled shrimp, the filet (so buttery!), the pork sausages, and the top sirloin. At our Yelp Elite Event, there was a BACON wrapped filet, which I didn't see the night we went back, but definitely grab that if you see it when you go! Although we didn't feel like we could eat one more bite, we did decide to try a few desserts and share. My husband got the Tres Leches, which was so creamy and delicate, so tasty with the cake soaking in the milky cream below. For my dessert choice, I got the Tiramisu (my favorite dessert). It was decadent, sweet, and covered in lots of chocolate, espresso dust, and blueberries and cherries. So good, but it was a very large piece, just like the Tres Leches, so we could not finish either dessert. I recommend just getting one dessert and splitting it. I loved that I got to try Terra Gaucha again as a normal customer, just a few days after trying them at the Yelp event. The service and variety of food courses were right on par with our Yelp Event. Even though it's a bit spendy, just like any steakhouse, you definitely get your money's worth at Terra Gaucha, along with great staff, and wonderful ambiance! read more

I have never been to a Brazilian Steakhouse, but Terra Gaucha was a very fun and delicious experience. The food surpassed any and all expectations, and I greatly enjoyed the buffet style experience and kept going back for seconds. The location is large and has a lively, fun atmosphere. Our service was great and all the staff was very attentive and helpful. read more

I really liked Terra gaucha! I loved all the different cuts of meat I got to try - sirloin, New York strip, filet, chicken wings, and brisket! They also had the cold salad bar and the hot bar, and grilled pineapple that was delicious! The servers with the meat came around often and checked in if we needed more water. My only downside is the price tag - $60 per person. I ate a lot but I'm not sure if I got my moneys worth. Overall this would be a great place for a celebration but a bit much for everyday. read more

I stopped in for a quick lunch here and just did the salad bar and trust me that is way more than enough food and very reasonable for $20. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. All the meat walking by to the other tables was very enticing so I will for sure have to come back and do the full experience next time. The salad bar appeared very well maintained I definitely cannot list out everything here but seriously great selection. The overall ambiance of the restaurant was very open, lively and comfortable. read more

On an otherwise eventful weekday, my husband and I drove right past Terra Gaucha in search of an anniversary meal at village point... But this caught my eye, and a quick Google search drew us in. Beyond the actual food LOOKING good online, we went for it as a spur of the moment stop because it felt like the closest thing we could get to feeling truly vacation-spoiled like at a fancy resort And we are both SO GLAD we changed course! This meal was the best we've had in quite some time. We both really appreciated the vast variety at the salad bar - anything from fruits and vegetables to pre-made potato and macaroni salads, cheese boards, tons of fresh and unique toppings that you wouldn't typically throw together for your salad at home. I loved every bite of this course! Then, you're served Brazilian cheese bread which is such a unique piece - light and airy but flavorful and satisfying. And then come the meats! Turn your "coin" to "ready" and you'll be paraded with fresh bites of filet mignon, chicken drumsticks, pork options, lamp chops, and way too many more for me to name. The beef options were our particular favorite, but I truly couldn't even recall which by the end of the meal haha! Then, our server asked if we'd been here for any specific reason and delighted us with a dessert - we got the flan, and enjoyed the extra treat for a few bites and had to take it to go after that big feast! read more

The good - the food was SO good, I enjoyed their special the best as far as the meat service went. They had plenty of options walking around. The salad bar was well stocked and had high quality items. The service was phenomenal, plates were removed quickly and the staff was well trained. The not so good- the price felt excessive, we were also informed the mimosas came with our meals but they were an extra charge... Would come back but only for a special occasion as it's good but not something I feel good spending that much money on. read more

This is the third brand of Brazilian steakhouses that I have experienced and this was by far the best. The servers were quick at the table. There was a constant and abundant flow of meat selections brought to our table. Everything I selected was prepared and seasoned just right. The offerings included chicken, pork, shrimp, and for beef you are asked if you want rare, medium, or well-done. They will find it for you from their sword full of meat and begin slicing away. The only thing I wish they did is have the name of the meat on a button or something. It would help greatly. The cold salad bar is so incredibly full of choices. There are unique choices along with traditional salad choices. I was especially anxious to try the mushroom filled with chickpeas and other ingredients. DELICIOUS! Other choices were spot on too. Unfortunately, I paced myself too well with the meat that I did not get a return trip to the cold bar! The warm bar was more limited. I tried a little bit of this, a little bit of that. I was impressed, like our staff server suggested, with the beef stroganoff. It's worth a try. Overall, this is a fun place to enjoy a meal and company. This place is prime for conversations while you dine. And you know what? It's FUN conversation. There's so much to talk about. They did an awesome job transforming an old restaurant (which relocated) into Terra Gaucha. It's beautiful inside and out. You can dress up but I would not dress down too much. Be respectful. Eating here is an experience. The staff is attentive and buzzing all over the place, honestly. read more

Amazing salad bar, sides and meats. Never tried Brazilian food before. Service was outstanding. A little pricey but definitely worth it.

One of the best experiences I had with a restaurant in a while. As soon as you walk you can see all their servers walking around with different cuts of meat, it gets you excited to sit down and eat! On the salad bar they have a wide selection of delicious food, from cheeses, to lobster bisque to cured meats. It a lot of options! The place is packed so it make it a little hard navigate it is not bad. The waiters are fast at picking your plate and bringing you a new one so you can go get more. The desserts were alright but I wasn't there for that. I would recommend anyone this place if you want amazing food! read more

Beautiful interier design with plenty of room to walk to & from the buffet salad bar. I made several trips to get a variety of salads, fruits, veggies-steamed or glazed, shrimp, lox, and so much more! The meat service at the table was non-stop & very impressive! You can sample it all or stick with what you like best! It's all you can eat! There's different pricing for lunch and dinner. If you just want the salad bar or just want the meat or both? Check online or call before you go. There's also $15 off meal if you sign up on their web page! read more

2 buddies and I came last night to try Terra for the first time. Over all great experience. They were busy as expected but the service was excellent. Many times we were asked how it was going and if there was anything in particular we would like. I asked for Lamb and pork belly and they delivered. The pork belly was juicy and tender. The leg of lamb and chops both delicious. Have to say I really enjoyed the lobster bisque soup as well. Most definitely will be back again. Want to bring my 11 year old son and see if he likes it. read more

Had a great experience. Food was delicious. The salad bar had great hot and cold options. The meat was good and there were a lot of variety's passing by us. We had a great seat. The staff worked well together to keep the restaurant clean and would bring you a new plate when yours was finished. There was only one snafu at the end where my husband was waiting awhile for his dessert but I let the server know and they' got his dessert right away. Even with a packed house I feel that it was pretty speedy to get what we needed. We'd go back! The grilled pineapple is to die for! read more

Food was decent and really liked the ambience. I'm at an age now where buffets don't make sense for me because I don't think I can't get my moneys worth. I like the variety of meat, but overall there were only maybe one or two (salmon and filet)that we found to be exceptional and the rest were OK. My favorite thing probably was the lobster bisque soup and the salad bar was pretty decent as well. They definitely try to fill you up on bread and appetizers before the meat start rolling through desserts were maybe a 7/10 and cost additional. I'm in no hurry to come back! read more

We came here for my wedding anniversary and really enjoyed our visit. I've been here a couple of times for various occasions, and the service here is so consistent, and efficient. The hot bar and the salad bar are really worth the cost of admission alone, but of course, the star of the show is the meat and seafood presentations. My husband was in awe, as he'd never been to a Brazilian steakhouse, or had the authentic Churrassco experience. He was blown away by the seemingly endless options. Overall, it can be a quick experience if you over do the servings. My pro-tip is to not order any extra beverages, and maybe not a first date experience, but definitely nine years in, I wasn't afraid to down 2 lbs of high quality meats. The interior is so beautiful, and is exceptionally clean and again, the staff is excellent and friendly, really personable. I'm glad to see the service is as on point even months after opening. read more

Terra Gaucha - Steakhouses Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

I never thought I'd say this, but Omaha now has two Brazilian steakhouses, this one and Texas de Brazil downtown. After dining at both several times I feel pretty confident saying that the meat at Texas de Brazil is better, and the hot and cold bars at Terra Gaucha are better in my opinion. Terra Gaucha is a very nice place with excellent service, I think anyone who goes will find plenty of great things to eat, I will say that on my last dining experience there some of the meat was a bit tough or fatty, while some others were spot on, particularly the Brazilian sausage. Now, the hot and cold bars on the other hand, were great, everything i had was excellent, the selection was impressive. Some of my favorites were the imported charcuterie, pork belly with black beans, lobster bisque. Everything was very fresh, and there were even some nice surprises that I didn't realize the had, like the fried cheese and honey they bring around as a dessert, very unique and tasty. Ultimately my complaints about a few of the meats weren't a huge deal, and maybe I just caught them on an off night, but with the huge selection of other dishes it all worked out in the end. read more

Stopped in to Terra Gaucha last night for happy hour, served Mon-fri 4:30-6:00 in the bar only. We were the only ones there which was fine but it really is a lovely place. Big change from the Charleston's previously in that building. Ambiance is nice and bartender was friendly. Prices are pretty reasonable at happy hour although no food or appetizers available at that time. Unknowing to us, they do bring out complimentary appetizers! We were served a bowl of their parmesan cheese puffs and fried polenta sticks (crispy corn fritters). The cheese puffs were warm and fluffy (reminded me of a popover) with parm cheese baked in the dough. The fried polenta sprinkled with grated parmesan was different but in a good way, I found myself having a hard time putting them down. Both were a very nice and unexpected treat. I recommend stopping and checking them out, and if you have dinner reservations be sure to go early to take advantage of the happy hour prices. read more

Stellar food, so much to eat you don't even need the meat service! Just dine at the self serve table, it's so worth it!

Possibly the most expensive place we've gone to for a family birthday dinner, but absolutely the best and totally worth it. I would definitely come back, though not as often as i would like due to the price, but it is still worth the hour drive. The place is bustling and can seem too fast-paced but give it a bit on your first time and you'll settle in and get used to the pace and noise level. I tried just getting a little bit of everything and everything I tried was superb and the highest quality. The service was outstanding. They randomly just brought out a little bowl of mashed potatoes (not instant), and a little bit later fried bananas. The wood-fired pineapple was so good I think I ate more pineapple than I have all year. The steaks were absolutely amazing. I didn't try any other meats, but I must have had every cut of steak on offer with the "Full Churrasco" experience. If you're getting bored of "the same old thing" when going out to eat, then definitely give this a try! If you want the best of every steak cut there is, then give this a try. read more

I could not think of better place to celebrate my Birthday. From the moment we walk in to the time we left everything was just Exceptional!

We went to Terra Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse for a birthday dinner and had an amazing time! Since it was our first visit, we let our server know and she took the time to explain how everything worked. She was attentive all evening--our water glasses were always full, and the skewers of meats came out quickly and consistently. The food was outstanding. The cheese puffs were perfectly light with a great texture, and the mashed potatoes (with all the fixings!) were a favorite at our table. The hot and cold bar had so many unique options, and I loved being able to try so many new things. For dessert, we received the papaya mousse for the birthday celebration. It was tart, refreshing, and so good that even though we were completely stuffed, we kept going back for more bites. Between the food, the service, and the atmosphere, it was such a memorable evening. Highly recommend Terra Gaucha for anyone looking for a special night out! read more

Terra Gaucha - Papaya Mousse - Steakhouses Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

No complaints. Great service, great food. I've been to texas de brazil many times and at least comparing the average of all visits there to first visit here (ie, will things get better/worse after they've been open longer), I'd give a slight edge to Terra Gaucha. Salad Bar - very similar Sides - slight preference to Texas de Brazil. Better cheese bread and plaintains Meat - slight edge to Terra. I like things well seasoned, and I thought the meat was more seasoned/flavored to my preference. Now does this meat need to be seasoned is a separate "argument". I did have a piece I thought was too salty but maybe my taste buds were changing after having so much meat HA Price - technically the same. You can get discounted gift cards for Texas de brazil, so that could make that ~$10/person cheaper. read more

Such a fun experience!!! You can make a night out of this place. A whirlwind of tasty meats comes to the table at a rapid pace. So many steaks, sausages, chickens, shrimps, and pork. There wasn't a single meat I didn't enjoy. The grilled pineapple was an amazing unique taste on top. Everything was roasted to perfection, and the servers let you decide what temp and size. The servers were all very courteous and explained the entire process. The meats were amazing, but the cold/warm bar was just as good. They had an incredible selection of vegetables, salads, sauces, and fruits. I loved the rich lobster bisque and beet salad. This was incredible experience and the prices were very competitive. I can't wait to come back!! read more

Went at lunch time. My friend and I celebrated our Birthdays. The food was so delicious! So many different dishes to try. So many foods used in different recipes. They brought at least 10 different meats around to choose from . All delicious. So fun also. Service is not going to be a problem here. All the servers work together. Excellent service. Helpful and polite! Dinning area is a vintage mix of a great Dinning Hall with warm comfort. Dress code suggested- Casual Business. Yet they never turned anyone away. Ladies in jeans , construction workers in work vests and ball caps ! Such a wonderful, beautiful place. Cannot wait to go again! You get a lot for what you pay. Well worth it. read more

Oh my gosh I could eat here every weekend if my wallet could afford it! I love the lamb by far the best followed by the steak. I haven't tried their chicken or pork because I eat too much of the lamb and steak. Plus, I load up on lobster bisque, fresh cheese, fresh veggies, and salads. I had to try their Brazilian soda that was like a Ginger Ale but a little more flavorful in my opinion. Our server was somewhat attentive, but I really appreciated when they offered clean dishes to restart the meat courses again. The only thing I wish they would add is hot, sautéed mushrooms. Other than that I love everything! read more
