Food excellent Service outstanding Ambiance exceptional I wish I could remember everyone's name they were so welcoming and friendly. We had never been there before and we were given a wonderful detailed overview of the food and how everything was going to work. This is the way every restaurant should be run! Thank you to all of the associates!!! Your doing a wonderful job and making everyone feel special! You all deserve an award. read more

Honestly, having been to quite a few Brazilian steakhouses, I have a standard for the kind of service you usually get at these places. Unfortunately, this visit just didn't hit the mark. The service felt off from the start, even just waiting to be seated felt like a hassle. Once we were actually at the table, it didn't get much better. It felt like the staff was genuinely annoyed every time we had a request, which made the whole meal feel awkward. To top it off, we could literally hear the servers complaining about having to stay late and questioning why people even come in that late... which is pretty frustrating considering the restaurant is the one letting you book a reservation for that time in the first place. The food was decent, but the vibe was just ruined by the service. If you're looking for that high-end "experience" you usually expect from a churrascaria, this probably isn't the spot. read more

$70 for ayce steak. This was my first time here, or a Brazilian steak house in general I think. We made reservations for 5 at 5 on Friday night and it wasn't busy at all. Even though we were 20 mins late - traffic!! - they still saved our table. Our waiter was very nice and gave us the run down of how things worked. They are constantly bringing around meat even if our cards were flipped to red! I wanted to try everything and I purposefully got very little from the salad bar but I was so full after about 30-45 mins! The flank steak was my favorite. I thought everything was well seasoned, cooked well, and fresh. Nothing was cold - besides the salad/side bar. I think them bringing French fries, mashed potatoes, cinnamon sugar bananas, and cheese bread to the table before the meat comes is just over kill. It's wasteful. I got the alcoholic Brazilian lemonade and their signature cocktail. They were strong but went down like water. My bill was $102 for ONE PERSON!! That is INSANE. I don't even spend that for my boyfriend and I on date night. It was a cool experience I guess but go hungry to get your moneys worth! read more

Reservations were made months in advance for Valentine's Day dinner with my husband, so we were definitely looking forward to a smooth, romantic evening. When we arrived, we were told they were running about 20-25 minutes behind on reservations and were asked to wait outside. It was very crowded, with lots of couples waiting around, which made it feel a bit chaotic right from the start. When our name was finally called, it was hard to hear, and the hostess didn't linger to see if anyone responded. I thought I heard my name and sent my husband inside to check -- sure enough, they had called us. They did apologize and explained they were having trouble getting tables cleared and reset quickly enough due to delays with bussing. Totally understandable on a busy holiday, but it added to the initial stress. Once seated, things improved. Our waitress, Kelly, was genuinely kind and attentive. We weren't initially given a drink menu, but when we asked, she seemed surprised and quickly corrected it. She explained the dining process clearly and sent us off to the salad area. The salad bar is where this place really shines. It's far beyond your standard greens-and-dressing setup. There were grilled asparagus, green beans, balsamic tomatoes, specialty cheeses, and even a cinnamon pineapple dish that was surprisingly delicious. I'd heard the lobster bisque was a must-try, so I grabbed a bowl. The flavor was good, but it wasn't very hot, which took away from the overall experience. The meat service was plentiful and nonstop. As soon as we finished one selection, another gaucho would appear with something different. It felt like you never got the same cut twice, and there was always something new to try. If you're going for the full churrascaria experience, they definitely deliver on variety and abundance. Dessert, however, felt like another waiting game. When we said yes to seeing the dessert options, it took quite a while for the tray to arrive. Kelly came back multiple times to apologize, explaining that the dessert station was backed up. Once she finally presented the tray (probably about 10 minutes later), she thoroughly explained each option. I chose the banana foster pie. It took another 10 minutes to arrive. Again, apologies were offered -- and appreciated -- but by then the momentum of the evening had dipped. The dessert was good, but not something I'd rush back specifically for. Overall, Texas de Brazil at Ala Moana delivered on food quality and selection, especially at the salad bar and with the continuous meat service. Service from our waitress was warm and professional despite clear back-of-house bottlenecks. The holiday crowd and delays took away from the romantic flow of the evening, but the core dining experience was solid. Was definitely great for a date night. I wouldn't go far enough to say it was a special occasion type place. Would I return? Yes -- just maybe not on Valentine's Day. read more

Texas de Brazil - Banana foster pie - Steakhouses Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Senior dining discount 20%. Attention carnivores. When they opened at 5:00 p.m., we went for dinner. Assuming it was the manager, he invited us in, even tho only a third of my party was there, and asked if we would like to wait outside or be seated. We had reservations for 12 people. While waiting we were served drinks and small like cheese biscuits. Whe we started eating, they served, to the table, delicious garlic mashed potatoes and a killer prepared bananas. Other things like soups, sauteed mushrooms and starches (rice and scallops potatoes) were self-service at another counter. First impression: Very nice ambiance. A super large salad bar, but we weren't there for the salad. Waitresses and waiters come around in Brazilian uniforms with many meat entrees to choose from. They try to keep the meats hot when they carry them around for service. Pros: 1) Seniors get a 20% discount. 2) Large salad bar. 3) We had an attentive waiter. 4) Entrees were kept at a good temperature and not cold since they are carried around to serve. Cons: 1) They don't accept online gift certificates. 2) A bit pricey, but the senior discount helps. 3) Dessert is not included. Would I go back? Yes, even with the price of dinner. I would like to thank them for thinking about seniors. There is a good selection of entrees. WARNING: IT'S NOT WHAT THE LOCALS ARE USED TO. But it is well prepared. Remember, my fellow YELPERS... IT'S BRAZILIAN ALSO NOTE: They do have a salad bar only and kids price. Jasmine, if you read this, you have a killer banana condiment. You should think of serving it with some ice cream as a dessert. I think it would be a winner. read more

Texas de Brazil at Ala Moana delivers a really solid churrascaria experience, especially if you're there for the meats. The service was attentive and friendly, and the gauchos kept the skewers coming with a great variety of well-seasoned, perfectly cooked cuts. The meats were definitely the highlight -- juicy, flavorful, and consistently cooked just right. It's a great spot for a special occasion or when you're in the mood to indulge and leave very full. The vibe of the restaurant is nice. That said, the reason this is 4 stars instead of 5 is the salad bar area. While everything was fresh and nicely presented, the selection of sides felt limited compared to other Texas de Brazil locations. I was hoping for a bit more variety beyond the basics to balance out the heavy meat courses. Overall, it's still a great dining experience with excellent service and high-quality food. If they expanded the sides and salad bar options, this would easily be a 5-star spot. read more

My carnivore hubby's request for his birthday dinner proved to be as pleasing for me (his pescatarian wife) as it was for him. Texas de Brazil left us both smiling and satisfied. In my opinion, it's a better value than a traditional steakhouse. Hubby counted and he enjoyed seven different types/cuts of meat. And while the gauchos kept his plate full with generous slices of lamb, beef, and pork, I kept my plate full with the salad bar options. My dinner cost was less than the hubby's because I didn't partake in the skewered and grilled meats. But I certainly got my money's worth! I was more than satisfied with the salad bar options and especially enjoyed the hot dishes like lobster bisque, fish, and black beans. They also bring sides of fries, potatoes, and plantains at the start of the meal. It's an incredible deal for the amount and quality of food you get to devour. I'm not really an AYCE fan but it this place elevates the idea of buffet dining. The gauchos were fun and personable. The hostess and server were pleasant and professional. And the manager visited our table a few times to chat. It was a warm and welcoming experience in a spacious, bright, and classy restaurant. At the end of the meal, hubby was served complimentary ice cream in honor of his special day, which was a really sweet touch. Great place for a date night, celebration, or family dinner. Some guests were dressed up and others were casual. It's a come as you are and leave more full than when you arrived type of restaurant. Lots of parking since it's in Ala Moana shopping center. And you can walk off the calories window shopping after your meal. If you're a meat eater, you'll love this place. And if you don't eat meat, you'll love it too. We definitely did! read more

Great experience with food to match! We celebrated my wife's birthday with friends, and no one went home hungry We made reservations, so there was no wait. The drinks were tropical, and the salad bar was amazing..... so many options, from fresh fish, soups, salad, mats, and so much more. The main course was the Brazilian-style meats and sides. Always freshly prepared, perfectly seasoned, and tender! Great time with amazing friends, doesn't get any better read more

This was our second time eating here and my first commen,t is that the service was way better than our 1st experience. Our waiter was very kind and attentive to our table, even after it got busy. He also did his best to get our favorites to the table. I'm not much of a beef eater and it seems as though the mostly cater to beef eaters. You can request items, but each time we did we had to wait a good amount time my husband requested the picanha multiple times after seeing it come out and never making it to our table, it didn't make it until we were ready to leave. Definitely a different experience from eating at Brazilian steakhouse's elsewhere, specifically Texas. I do want to be fair, my 3 star review is not because the place is terrible. It is due to the lack of meat rotation. The staff serving the meat at our table could've also had a bit more personality, or at least a smile! Honestly, the salad bar is a meal in itself. read more

They have Military Monday and, Kamaaima Tuesday discounts Many meats to choose from- on a big skewer. They come by your table and you use a little tong to retrieve the piece of meat or sausage. They have a good salad bar as well and soup of the day.- fresh and grilled veggies- I did like their grilled pineapple They bring french fries mashed potatoes and this amazing banana with cinnamon and sugar. Oh, and we can't forget the Brazilian bread.... Cheese bread at its finest. Great service and casual dress. Located in Alamoana shopping center- on Macy's side of the mall. Next to Mai Tais Bar 3rd floor read more

My friend wanted to try this place out. It was his first time there. We went on a Tuesday for the kamaaina deal. I recommend to make reservations since it does get packed after 6:00pm. The meats were delicious. It was fresh and hot. I do prefer the cook on my meat to be medium to medium well and they were nice to accommodate that. My favorites were the picanha, beef ribs, and bbq pork ribs. They were very tender with the right amount of fat. It was also juicy and not at all dry. The salad bar was very clean. I see one of the staff wipe down the counter often. Great selections for salad and toppings. There were also sauces that pair well with the meats. I also do like their hot bar selections. The lobster bisque was very flavorful. The fish, mushroom, and gratin potatoes were delicious sides. They also provided the usual cheese bread, mashed potatoes, cinnamon bananas, and fries. They were all great. We love the cheese bread and mashed potatoes. They go so well with the lobster bisque. The cinnamon bananas were very good. They weren't too sweet and were a nice dessert-like side. Overall, I've been here a few times and service always been great. The servers were always attentive and friendly. The gauchos were hardworking and they explain each meat they are serving. There are times when some would missed our table but we were able to request for a certain meat and they would bring it out to us. Great seasoning and cook on the meat, delicious salad and hot bar, good sides and services. Will definitely continue to return again. read more

This is a great dinner experience! Pricey but worth it. There is a fantastic salad bar that has much more than salad options. Then there are people walking around offering different cuts of fresh cooked meats. So many to choose from. The staff is friendly and helpful. We loved that our server Vincent was always available. We never had to wait for refills or to ask questions. This place can be casual or dressy depending on what type of vibe you want. read more

Craving for some meat? Texas De Brazil is the place to be. The plethora of food is amazing. One of our faves was the brisket and pichana steak. It was so tasty. lots of flavor. The mushrooms are a side that you must have. Another great side is the pineapple which really cleanses your pallet and makes you want to eat more. Salad and veggies options are plentiful. Oh and if you're craving for some cocktails they have a ton of options, as well as beer and wine too. Restaurant is really clean and well lit, but the place can get a little crowded at times. The service here has never disappointed. Staff is friendly and fun! Call ahead for bigger parties and wear loose pants, you're going to need it! read more

It was such a personable experience our table was so romantically decorated for Valentine' day. They are busy but it was so nice being able to take our time and not feel rushed. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! read more

Disappointing experience overall. The wait time between meat service was very long, and when the food finally arrived, nearly 90% of the meats were medium-well or overcooked. Most cuts were very tough and difficult to chew, if you're looking for a jaw workout, this is the place. Several items were burnt, and the overall quality was far below expectations. The pacing, texture, and execution just weren't there. Unfortunately, this location doesn't compare to Texas de Brazil locations on the mainland, which are significantly better in both service and meat quality. Would not return to this location. read more

I was lucky to be invited to a family anniversary dinner here, and after not eating at this restaurant in over a year, it was still the fun experience I remembered The waitstaff did a nice job attending to our party and the manager even came over to check on us to make sure we were doing good The two food aspects of the restaurant are both fun and delicious The 'salad bar' has an amazing selection of food, and if you didnt enjoy anything else, you would be happy. There is hot food like potatoes, soup, rice and beans. The cold selection is quite vast with marinated vegetables, cold cuts, salads, and fruit. The family consensus was that the thinly sliced pineapple was the fav from the salad bar The "gauchos" brought a lot of different meats by our table, and our favorites were the picanha (obviously), flank steak, and ribs This is definitely a fun place for special occasions, family get togethers, and for people who enjoy a lot of food! read more

We came for a birthday lunch around noon. It wasn't super crowded. The salad bar area was very clean and full. I honestly did get full from just the salad bar area , but got the meat plate. The meat was amazing! Got steak sausage ribs, they have other options like lamb chicken etc. The food was amazing. I'm hungry thinking about it. and We had $1 mimosas read more

Fantastic service, great salad bar selection, and meats were so delicious. My favorite is the garlic picanha and house picanha. We got seated at the back table by the server's come out and it was the best seat in the house as we were getting all the meats right of the rack. Some notable side dishes were the lobster bisque, the house cheese bread, roasted garlic, the banana dessert, pineapple slices. The price is on the high side but you pay for what get and I do feel it is worth the price. I wish the desserts were included but they are an extra charge. Overall, we had a great experience at Texas de Brazil and will be back. read more

We celebrated my brother's birthday at Texas de Brazil, and it was an amazing dining experience from start to finish! As soon as we walked in, the staff welcomed us with friendly smiles and kept the positive energy going throughout the night. They checked in often, made sure we were taken care of, and really helped make the celebration feel special. The food? Incredible. Every cut of meat they brought out was cooked to perfection--juicy, flavorful, and hard to resist. From the lamb chops and picanha to the bacon-wrapped goodness and sausages, everything hit the spot. The constant flow of tableside churrasco service is a true carnivore's dream! Their salad bar is more like a gourmet spread, with fresh greens, cheeses, charcuterie, Brazilian sides, and even dishes like creamy stroganoff that paired perfectly over rice. And let's not forget the chimichurri--it elevated every bite. We started the night with a round of drinks at the bar to toast to the birthday boy, and the cocktails did not disappoint. Great way to kick off the feast! Between the delicious food, the great atmosphere, and the wonderful staff who made the night feel personal and fun, Texas de Brazil delivered an unforgettable Brazilian steakhouse experience. If you're celebrating a special occasion (or just hungry and ready to feast), this is the place to go. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit! Obrigado, Texas de Brazil, for making the birthday celebration so memorable! read more

I said I'd return when I was back home and I did! You're not currently able to make to-go orders online for the Hawaii location so we called in our order. I must say... the young lady who assisted me was the sweetest and was very courteous. While ordering I asked about the Brazilian cheese bread that comes with the to-go meal. She later called me back to advise that they were no longer including the bread with the meal so you had to order them separately (1/2 dozen, etc).. I mentioned that their website states that they come with the meal so I felt like they should honor that but she sweetly apologized. I understood that it wasn't her decision and ordered a dozen. She later called me back and informed me that the chef decided to not charge for the bread due to the issue and I really thought that was great of them to do that since it was advertised as such. We ordered 2 Churrasco Plate meals which start at $19 and come with your choice of 2 meats (some premium meat options require an additional cost), your choice of 2 sides and chimichuri sauce. As I mentioned, it may or may not come with a couple Brazillian cheese breads so you'd want to confirm. But if you have to pay for them I recommend you do so because they're yummy. For meats we selected Picanha, Garlic Picanha and Bacon Wrapped Filet Mignon (all of which were additional cost). For sides we got Potato Salad, Scalloped Potatoes and Feijoada (Black Beans). Everything was delicious. I feel like their to-go plate option is great for the cost but that can increase depending on your meat selection. My absolute favorite meat selection is the Picanha so that was an extra $3.50 each and the Filet Mignon was an extra $9. My only thing is that I would've appreciated a little thicker cut of meat. read more

I visited this restaurant for my last birthday, and I am so glad I did. There is an extensive salad bar, including cheese and cold cuts! The meat selection is also varied and delicious. I liked the steak/beef selections the most, especially the picanha. The trick is to limit the carb intake so you can partake in the protein!!! The service was good, in that the servers came around with the meats pretty consistently. I had no issues with getting enough to eat or drink - in fact, I was very stuffed and satisfied heading out of the restaurant. Service was friendly, especially the servers handing out the meat! The interior of the restaurant is really pretty, and I felt like it was roomy enough for us on a date night. I can see how it can feel a bit cramped if you have kiddos or a large party, but it was fine for us. I definitely will be back, likely for another special occasion since the price is on the higher end. read more

Went on a Monday evening after exercise class. We were seated promptly and the servers bringing the meats and our table person was great. Meats came out hot and consistently. The host gave a recommendation for the beef ribs which were really tender. Wished we knew about beef ribs earlier. There wasn't a menu with a list of meats and prices. We did receive drink menus. The salad bar items looked fresh and we got full pretty quickly so didn't go back for seconds. As a gluten free diner, I wish they had signs that indicated if items contained allergens like gluten or dairy. When I asked my server which items were gluten free at the salad bar, the response was to look it up on the website. That's why my rating is a four instead of 5. It was a positive experience overall, but I think have a couple of letters on the signs that are already there informing people of the allergens would enhance the dining experience. read more

TLDR; I don't recommend this place for groups of large families/friends based on my experience. Food; if you like really spicy food & really strong flavored food, then go and enjoy. Ambience; it's as loud as Cheesecake Factory. Service; only visit if you can sit as a small group of 4-5 people. There was much left to be desired but it was still a pretty good experience overall. Kelly helped us but we can tell genuine kindness vs "end of the day,i'm tired from working" mood. Whatever- at least she smiled. My irritation came from her taking away a utensil & drink set (which she was going to bring a plastic cup for the toddler but didn't) & she blamed us later saying it's probably on the table somewhere. She didn't even remember which person ordered what drink. Just bc the large parties (6+ ppl) automatically are charged 18% tip, doesn't mean we deserve less effort. But I digress- Let's just say it was the first and last time I'd be going. Not that the people were more terrible or the food was bad- it's just I think Brazilian bbq (maybe Brazilian food altogether) doesn't match my palate. I did try the dishes I wouldn't normally go for since it's the 1st time I tried Brazilian food; I had plenty of the salad & hot bar options. Idk if it was worth the AYCE pricing but let's just make it clear that it was obvious when people didn't want to deal with our size of group (11). We weren't louder than the other groups, the guac kept bringing out spicy picanha, Parmesan crusted chicken & picanha to us by randomly. She said she can bring out specific meat if we request but it's not like I saw her come by more than the guachos/gauchos. For the majority of our group, those dudes allowed 1 pc per meat choice per person. read more

Will definitely be returning! Ambiance The restaurant has a modern and stylish interior that creates a comfortable yet upscale dining experience. Food We chose the buffet and all-you-can-eat meats, and it exceeded expectations. The buffet was full of fresh salads, sides, and plenty of options to complement the meats. The lamb was the highlight of the night--tender, flavorful, and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. We enjoyed it so much that I found myself skipping the beef just to have more lamb. Unlike some churrasco-style restaurants where servers can be slow or portions feel limited, here the meats came out generously and consistently, which made the experience even better. You definitely get your moneys worth! By the end our meal we were all too stuffed to even think of deserts however our waitress came by, showed us all of the desert options and said if we're too full we can take home! I was way too full to even think of it but all four of us chose one to eat the next night! So nice! Service The service was outstanding. Our waitress, originally from Argentina, was incredibly attentive--she checked in often, replaced our plates with clean ones, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. On top of that, the manager came by twice to ask how we were doing and even offered to bring out specific cuts of meat for us. That level of attention is rare these days and made us feel truly valued as guests. read more

Salad bar had a lot of selection and dishes were frequently refreshed. However, the meat offered was disappointing. Lamb chops had literally 1/2" of meat on them.

Updated 01/03/26 - I decided to give Texas de Brazil in Honolulu a 2nd chance. New year, fresh start. So glad I did. We sat in the middle of the main room this time, and it was a huge difference. Granted, it wasn't the week of Christmas on Kama'aina Tuesday ;) Nonetheless, this is the experience that I remember from Las Vegas. Ku'ulei was our server and she was warm and friendly. Every gaucho that came by was incredibly kind...even though I only said "yes, please" to steak. I'm especially obsessed with the picanha and its perfectly seasoned and just-fatty-enough crust lol. What I loved the most is that I brought a friend with me who could only eat well-done cuts of meat and not only did they remember that, they brought both medium-rare and well-done options for each meat when they came around. Leadership is on point. I witnessed table touches at every table (including ours), and each interaction gave the impression of being genuine and not forced. I will definitely be returning after this experience. read more

My husband and I when on a sporadic early date night and decided to eat here. We came for an early dinner and the restaurant was not that busy yet. We were greeted with a warm welcome from the hostess lady, she was very nice and welcoming. We were seated immediately. Our server was a young gentlemen, excellent recommendations which we took into consideration of the alcoholic drinks he recommended. The food and the buffet off to the side was good but it was pretty pricey. Luckily the servers came around just in time when we were ready for our next meat to consume. I liked all the meats that were presented that day and the buffet salad and sides were a plus for me! read more

Of all the churrasco restaurants I have been to, this one would rank as the most underwhelming for me in terms of variety, especially at the high price point you're paying. There weren't that many (beef) options, and the rotations that kept frequenting our table was the chicken options. Whenever we DID get around to the beef options (which took extremely long whenever we request for it or if it made its way to us), the slices are extremely thin, and it gets thinner if you ask for another slice. I don't know if this is because the carvers want to save time while the other meats are roasting or what, but to wait awhile for the different selections of meat to come out only to receive a small sliver was extremely disappointing. Best cuts of beef for me were the flank and the beef ribs. The salad bar was okay. I felt like there can be more items added. I enjoyed the tabouleh the most, along with the shrimp salad. Our server and the other servers were friendly, and staff was quick to clean up your used dishes. That, I enjoyed. And the dessert was flavorful. read more

This restaurant was very clean and delicious with excellent service from the server staff but I am putting down 2 star reviews because of the sheer disappointment in service from the staff who deliver and offer meat table to table. My party of 3 were seated directly behind the Hostess Desk and it felt as if we were ignored and treated as ghosts the entire time of our meal. We sat for nearly 2 hours and barely got any meat brought over to us with all of our coins flipped on the green side. The amount of times we were ignored or simply skipped over by the meat carvers was tripled or quadroupled than the amount of times they actually came, and that was not an exaggeration. (Mind you we were there for 2 hours, with over an hour of it waiting for meat to come by and trying to get the attention of the meat carving staff) Paying $70 per person whilst not even being given $10 worth of meat felt as if it were discrimination because of the lack of attention and awareness of the carving staff who blatantly ignored us. Even when our delightful server would direct the workers to come to our table with our choice of meat as requested, it would still take 10+ minutes after requests were given and we gave several notifications that they still have not come by. I would like to try this restaurant again but I am severely displeased about the primary aspect of this establishment where the manager also greeted us and told me "Please eat as much as you can" when we couldn't due to the neglect of the meat carving staff. read more

10.15.24 a group get together for dinner at Texas De Brazil. This was my first time to this particular restaurant. Fortunately, it was a get together for a invite and so I had decided to attend on the day. That's a very important day one time out of the year..... my I did hear many things about this buffet and so it was a really good opportunity to see what it was all about . The service was very good. They had given us time to get drinks, and so service had went around and they attended to every single table as you can tell by the one picture there's three tables which had about maybe 20 people to each table and saw they had a huge group and we had been attended to quite nicely. I had ordered a Sauvignon Blanc And it was there a particular brand of wine for the restaurant so I guess it would be called the house wine. It was a good thing that I did pick the white because they're cold buffet had a lot of things that. Really nicely with that wine such as. - roasted cous cous salad, fresh roasted beats I'm kind of olive oil marinate, sliced not shaven Parmesan, sliced salmon, red and white onion slivers, sautéed mushrooms, fresh tabouli salad, white sauce potatoes at gratin, shrimp salad, Brie (a whole wheel) hearts of palm cut in long diagonals... ((All the things you see on my plate)) the waiters and waitresses were very accommodating. They were going around and they also had to deliver fries to the table, garlic, mashed potatoes to the table and some thing that had been rolled in cinnamon and sugar and it was banana, so I think it was like a banana fosters without the pudding. They seem to want to come around and collect the tickets when you're ready for your next drink, but the thing is they didn't come around enough times to serve water. We had one person at our table that was drinking, a lot of water and the waiters or the waitresses took a while to come back when we told them about three times, but other than that it was pretty busy for them they may have been going around and other people had requested things and what not so I give them a pass on that it's really hard to help 60 people when you have a lot of people requesting for things. in a sense that salad bar that they have is in my opinion very good even without the meat. I didn't even get any lobster bisque because there was just so much good cold food. I probably could've eaten just that portion. If I could just guess maybe I could try to ask them later, if there's a cost for eating without having any meat I have been on a pescatarian diet for a long time and I've only just implemented eating meat once every other week. Fortunately, that was that night on the 15th. I wouldn't mind returning, if given the chance .. read more

Service excellent! From the hostess to the waitress to the gauchos, everyone was attentive and personable. We had a five o'clock reservation, I like being the first when every dish is neat and just in from the kitchen. Now and most importantly the food. I loved the salad bar. From the fresh Parmesan and mozzarella to the variety of greens, fresh beets, roasted garlic and jalapeños, hearts of palm, asparagus, couscous, green beens and more, so fresh! I wish I weren't so full, I would have gone back for seconds. The hot bar could have been better. It was just ok. The black beans were over seasoned but it's fine cause the rice offset it. The other unlimited sides are brought to the table like mashed potatoes, fries, sweet plantains or bananas. The meats are the piece de resistance! My husband and mom raved about the lamb. I enjoyed my sirloin, filet, beef rib with their chimichurri (sorry mine is better haha). The caveat of course, desserts at an extra cost. All in all, great experience and my son had a wonderful birthday. read more

Definitely worth it if you go for their happy hour, not sure about paying full price for the dinner though as I don't eat that much meat. Service was great and attentive. The meat servers were very friendly and encouraged us to try different cuts of meat too. I like how their meats weren't oversalted like other Brazilian bbq place I've been to, and the meat was cooked just right too. Oh don't miss their filet mignon. Bomb! Also loved that they had lamb! It wasn't gamey at all. The buffet station got a bunch of good items too. My favorites were the charred cinnamon pineapple slices, the chimichurri sauce, the sautéed mushrooms. I wish I could like the lobster bisque but it was too salty! I had to pour some water into my soup to make it edible... They brought our fries and cheese bread for the table. I liked them both. The fries were battered, just how I liked them! Cheese bread wasn't the best I've had but I think it's because it wasn't served fresh hot. The desserts weren't included for happy hour but they did offer a discount so we ordered the key lime pie and carrot cake. They could taste better if they weren't so sweet. I couldn't finish either of them. Their drinks were discounted too. Their sangria was just OK. Overall it's a great experience. I'm not sure if I had to pay full price though. For the happy hour price it's worth it! read more

Had the most amazing experience at this restaurant! Me and my fiancé were looking for a great place to go to dinner on our first night in Oahu! We were told of this restaurant which was about a mile away from our hotel. We didn't mind the walk. Took a little bit of effort to find the hotel, was it was hard to find! This was a rodizio Brazilian steakhouse, with a Brazilian salad bar and then gaucho is coming around bringing different kind of meat. Our waiter Adam was absolutely wonderful, and had the coolest hair!!!! we were treated very nicely and two managers came up to talk to us! This place is really pricey $69.99a person, but you will not leave hungry. Beautiful salad bar, and then the amazing cuts of meat, with a picture of sangria the total bill for me and my fiancé were about $190 with tax and tip! read more

Texas de Brazil - Lamb chops is my favorite. - Steakhouses Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

My experience at Texas de Brazil in Oahu was disappointing overall. I paid $70 for the all-you-can-eat meat service and wasn't able to eat any of the meats -- the only thing I managed to eat was one piece of sausage. We asked several times for the doneness of the meat that we prefer, but the cuts we requested never came to our table. The service was very slow and the meats rarely passed by. To make things worse, the few meats that did reach our table were extremely raw. Because of that, my friends also couldn't eat. Some of the food at the buffet was also cold. I want to be fair and say that our waitress was kind, but unfortunately the rest of the team and the overall experience left a lot to be desired. I'm not someone who usually leaves negative reviews because I tend to overlook many things, but unfortunately this experience was not good. -- Minha experiência no Texas de Brazil em Oahu foi decepcionante no geral. Paguei $70 pelo rodízio de carnes e não consegui comer nenhuma das carnes a única coisa que consegui comer foi um pedaço de linguiça. Pedimos várias vezes o ponto da carne que gostamos, mas eles simplesmente não chegaram até nossa mesa. O serviço foi muito lento e as carnes quase não passavam. Para piorar, as poucas carnes que chegaram estavam extremamente cruas. Por causa disso, meus amigos também não conseguiram comer. Algumas comidas do buffet também estavam frias. Quero ser justo e dizer que a nossa garçonete foi gentil, mas infelizmente o restante da equipe e a experiência no geral deixaram muito a desejar. Eu não sou uma pessoa que costuma deixar avaliações negativas porque normalmente relevo muitas coisas, mas infelizmente essa experiência não foi. read more

There is a 50% off special occurring until November 21st, 2024 (weekdays 4PM-6PM, no reservations). Texas de Brazil is worth the $39.99/person. Is the experience worth $79.99/person? Questionable. [Location] Texas de Brazil is located in Ala Moana Shopping Center, by Olive Garden and Macy's. I didn't see a restroom inside the restaurant but there's one very close by on the same floor. There's a lot more seating than I anticipated, though seats fill up quickly for the half-off deal! [Service] The hostess was efficient and very friendly. She's amazing! The employees carrying the meats are kind as well. My server for the night, Terry, was exceptional! Please be sure to tip the staff well. They work very hard! [Food & Drink] The salad bar is quite lovely, and well kept. I know people rave over the lobster bisque but it's a bit salty for my liking. Still worth a taste! You will get sides provided at your table such as the fries, mashed potatoes, bananas and cheese bread. The bread tastes great with the goat cheese from the salad bar. The meats are delicious, though you have to be mindful of how you pace yourself (especially during busy hours). The cocktails are worth the price! The desserts are just okay in my opinion. I highly recommend this experience to others! read more

DO NOT BE LATE OR YOU WILL MISS THE SLOTS. The promotion is for the bar and select tables, so it is possible to be there at opening and miss out. If you are going during the promotion time, it is best to get there at least 10 min before opening. Some people did intend to stay the full 2 hour happy hour slot, and were allowed to do so, so seats typically won't open up. Even trying to eat quickly, it took me over an hour to get to try all the meats and until 5:30 to pay and finish my dessert. So instead, take your time, relax. Assume you are locked in for an approximately 2 hour experience. And be glad you made it on time. Checking out requires a manager during the promotion, so it can take a bit. Dessert is a separate cost, but is also discounted. Total with my dessert was about $50, and adding in tip was about 60 total. General note - the spice level of the spicy meats was higher than my usual, but I prefer things milder, so it may be just right for you. Almost everything was amazing, with the exception of the lobster bisque, which was a bit bland when I got it at the evening's start. My meal highlights were the sent to table Garlic mashed potatoes; the salad bar Potatoes au gratin; and the Parmesan pork and Garlic picanha (roast beef) that were wandering items. Like in a dim sum restaurant, the main dish meats wander the room and come to you. Meats start slow at open but they do all come around. I was sitting at far end of bar, and service was still good. Do still try to watch the room. The Parm chicken came around twice, but most cuts didn't. My creme brulee was eggy with a hint of lemon, crunchy top but deep and creamy custard under it. I would get it again even at full price. The restaurant's bathroom was small but clean. The men's had two stalls. The door had one of those foot grips for opening it without touching the handle. The promotion was a wonderful thing to take advantage of, and with luck, I'll be able to afford the full price at some point. read more
