My boyfriend and I visited Texas de Brazil to celebrate our anniversary. Parking was standard garage parking, and the ambiance inside was nice. He made a reservation through OpenTable and noted that it was our anniversary. When we arrived, the hostess acknowledged the occasion, which was a nice touch. Unfortunately that's where the good service ended. It took 15 minutes for our server to show up, and when he did, he apologized and took our drink orders. In my opinion, that's way too long. Especially since we were starving, just sitting there staring at the salad bar. The salad bar itself was nothing amazing, but it did the job. We had the Caesar salad and scalloped potatoes, both of which were great. When my drink finally came out, it was a huge disappointment. It was tiny (photo attached) and cost $14, which would be fine if it were strong, but it tasted like juice. I could barely detect any alcohol at all and I felt nothing afterwards. Then the meats started coming and it only got worse. The first cut was a sirloin, which was absolutely inedible. I asked for medium, but what I got was half fat, half tough tendon meat. I literally couldn't cut through it (photo attached). I kept getting different variations of sirloin through the night and every single one was tough and/or fatty, and impossible to eat. Then came the filet mignon which was GREY. It was chewable at least, so I ate it because I was starving. The Parmesan pork was next, and it was so dry it was sandy. The crust made it even worse. Surprisingly, the chicken and sausage that came together were actually juicy, flavorful, and easily the best meats of the night. The flank steak was okay but very tough, but at least edible. The beef rib had good flavor and was tender and moist but it was soooo salty it almost wasn't worth it. We had been to Texas de Brazil before for a birthday and I remembered they used to bring sides out automatically. 20 minutes into eating, I realized we still didn't have them. We flagged down our server and he admitted he forgot. He asked if we wanted any specific meats while we waited, and we requested beef rib. It took another 20 minutes to get the sides, and another 10 minutes after that for the beef rib to show up.. The cinnamon bananas were great. They were perfectly cooked, sweet, and syrupy. But the mashed potatoes were absolutely disgusting. They tasted like boxed potatoes made with faucet water. Both the taste and texture were appalling!! The worst I've had in my whole life. To top it all off, our server barely refilled our water the entire night. We got one refill right before we got the check. The service was really really slow and lazy. He was nice enough but when the restaurant is damn near empty you would think he could at least fill our waters on time. Between the long waits, the tough meats, the horrible mashed potatoes, and the weak drinks, this was absolutely not worth the high price tag. I will never, ever come back here nor suggest that you come here under any circumstances.

First time visiting and it was a beautiful place but everything was mid to me. The meat was alright not very much options like the other places the salad bar was okay I definitely compared this place to gauchos and i prefer there. The customer service was really good and the drinks and the place is so cute and had no issues making reservations!

Texas de Brazil in Houston is totally worth the splurge! We recently celebrated my husband's birthday here, and it was amazing. The all-you-can-eat meats are incredible--filet mignon, lamb chops, ribs, sausage--you name it, they bring it right to your table. The salad bar and sides are fresh and tasty, and the dessert is absolutely delicious--perfect way to end the meal! The restaurant is elegantly decorated, perfect for dressing up, yet very kid-friendly--our whole family always feels welcome. The staff is friendly and attentive, making the experience smooth and enjoyable. Yes, it's pricey, but for the food, service, and atmosphere, it's worth every penny. We've brought the family multiple times, and it never disappoints!

Dare I say this is the best Brazillian steakhouse in Houston. I can't believe I have never tried this restaurant because I saw the ratings weren't good. Came here since we didn't want to drjve to the Galleria for Chama Gaucha and we are not a big fan of Fogo de Chao. Omg everything was so good from the salad bar to the meat. I would say the Brazillian cheese bread could be a little bit better but everything else is chef kiss. My favorites were the bacon wrapped filet mignon and the beef picanha. Service was amazing too! Cant wait to come back here the next time!

After visiting Houston Museum of natural science we chose Texas de Brazil for dinner. Beautiful establishment with great staff. It is a Brazilian eatery featuring all-you-can-eat grilled meat carved tableside & a salad bar. You definitely leave full! I love that you are able to try different meats. Their salad bar was my fav. Fresh, crisp, and a great variety of items. They also bring bread, mashed potatoes, and fried bananas to he table. The bananas were delicious. We also ordered a pitcher of their Brazilian lemonade. Our server Vinicius was awesome!

Sharda B.

Visiting Texas de Brazil is always a delicious experience! The customer service is attentive and the flavorful food never disappoints. You really can't go wrong with any choice here - we always leave completely satisfied for the day. Some must-try meats are the lamb chops and shredded beef, but honestly, everything is worth a try. And don't skip the salad bar - it's just as addictive!

Do y'all have halal options?

Thank you for reaching out! We do not serve kosher meat and only our lamb is halal – before… 

How much is it?

I believe it's $45.99 worth it to me. But in March they sell a VIP CARD for $69 and it gives you 12 meals at 1/2 price

What is the pricing like here?

Moderate pricing for meals and cocktails. They do offer a good happy hour during week.

I never been to a churrascaría, can someone explain to?

You pay a set price. They bring rods of grilled meat to you and slice if you would like it. Kind of like a cafeteria that comes to you. Salad bar -you can no longer serve…

I had to alter the number a time or two and I had no issues doing so online. I forgot to mention we needed a high chair and they were able to accommodate that last second as well. The restaurant is located in the Galleria area in a shopping strip across from the mall. Parking is plentiful and I like that we were not forced to use valet though it is available. I always show up first and they allowed me to be seated while waiting for the rest of my party. We started with one waiter but was helped by quite a few different people throughout. Customer service was friendly but at times we did have to wait for food. Because we chose to do the HRW Experience, they switched out the cards at the table that show when we wanted more or less food. The switch was made to show that we had less options than the full experience the restaurant usually offers. Even with less options, we had plenty to choose from. We had plans to drink after, so we decided to skip drinks. I know people say the salad bar at any Brazilian steakhouse should be skipped to avoid getting full before the meats, but I personally love them. It's usually a salad bar on steroids and here was no exception. At first glance it seemed smaller than other places, but what they did offer was great. I would say it's better than most actually. The hot options like shrimp stroganoff and goulash were very tasty. The charcuterie, candied bacon and salad options were top notch as well. I practiced restraint and only did one pass even though I was tempted to get more. For the main meal, they start you off with the famous Brazilian cheese bread. These things are addicting and done very well here. Once you are ready for the meats, you turn your card to green and wait for the barrage of meat to come at you. What I like about this place was that most of their cuts of meat were seasoned very well. Some were better than the others like the picanha and the spicy top sirloin. The sausage and pork ribs were delicious. I did find some were overcooked even when requesting a certain temp. I think we got lucky and was served some of their premium items like the beef ribs. That item was outstanding. It's like they teased us to let us know what we were missing and what we need to come back for. We ended with a few desserts. I got the creme brulee which I thought was very good and an excellent way to finish out our indulgent meal. We have no shortage of Brazilian steakhouses in Houston, but I think Casa Do Brasil is up there as one of the better ones. I very much enjoyed my meal here and would definitely come back when the meat cravings hit.

They cooked my cuts the way I like, medium. While cooking my husband's cuts medium rare. This is probably my favorite Brazilian steakhouse. The meat is cooked so perfectly. My favorite cuts were the ribeye, lamb chops, house special/picanha top sirloin. My husband loved the lamb chops, top sirloin and filet mignon. I really liked the peppercorn on the lamb chops and top sirloin. The amount of fat to meat was perfect for me. I really enjoyed the salad bad too. Eggplant, beets, pineapple; all delicious. As for sides, they had polenta fries, yuca fries?, beans, garlic mashed potatoes, and Mac and cheese. The garlic mashed potato was perfect. Mac and cheese was really good too. We were celebrating and let Carlos know, and he brought out a nice cake for us. A sweet gesture. I'd bring friends here for birthdays and Christmas. TMI but was consider coming here monthly when Aunt Flo is in town, since iron stores are depleted. The food was overflowing, almost had to be rolled out of there.

The gauchos kept calling me "the Boss," and it was awesome! They joked with me, made me laugh, and made me feel like I was the most important person in the restaurant. The restaurant is really cool because it feels special, but it's also cozy. You don't have to get super dressed up to enjoy an amazing meal. It feels fancy enough for a celebration but comfortable enough that everyone can just relax and have fun. The coolest part was that the gauchos remembered how everyone liked their meat cooked. They would come back to our table with meat cooked exactly the way each person liked it. I thought that was really cool because it showed they were paying attention. My mom's favorite things on the salad bar were the asparagus and the eggplant. I know that sounds funny, but they were really good! My favorite was all the delicious steak with rice. Every time a gaucho came by with another cut of steak, I was ready! The grown-ups also loved the drinks. My mom said her espresso martini was delicious, and everyone said the Kahlúa martinis were really good. Everyone was so nice, and they made my whole family feel welcome. Thank you, Randy, and all the gauchos, for treating me like "the Boss!" We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Houston!

I had never been to a restaurant like this before, where you have skewers of meat cut in front of you when you propped your table sign up. As a lover of dim lighting, this place definitely hit the spot. It's a great place for date night and I highly recommend it! Dillon: This place is ludicrously good. Ludicrously expensive as well, but definitely worth it. Make sure to not eat all day before you come, you'll want to be able to eat as much as possible. The steak is all wonderful, make sure you ask for the name of whichever one they give you, because you might not be able to find the same one twice. Try not to fill up on the salad, or the chicken, or the shrimp. The grilled pineapples definitely worth trying for dessert though.

I definitely recommend Gauchos Do Sul in Highland Village for the ambiance and view. I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses and Gauchos seems to be the best one that has a nice salad bar and located on the third floor. You have a nice view overlooking Highland Village. The dinner price is pretty reasonable, which includes the salad bar. We got there early and made it to Happy Hour too. The dinner selection also included lamb chops! The lamb chops were pretty generous in size and cooked perfectly medium rare for me. The service is great too! I highly suggest booking a reservation through Open Table or directly in Gauchos website. You can check out their Happy Hour menu and prices there too.

We've…read moretried many of them around Houston -- and honestly, Avenida stands out as the best when it comes to meat quality and variety of cuts, especially compared to other well-known Brazilian steakhouses in the same price range like Fogo de Chão and Gauchos Do Sul. Besides the typical cuts like picanha, top sirloin, bottom sirloin, and lamb chops, Avenida also offers Wagyu steak, ribeye, NY strip, salmon, shrimp, and even lobster soup. I prefer my steaks medium rare, and the meat was incredibly tender. My favorites were the top sirloin, lamb chops, and filet mignon. The service was phenomenal. They don't play the usual games that many Brazilian steakhouses do by bringing out the cheaper cuts first to fill you up. Instead, they consistently walk around serving a wide variety of meats throughout the meal, which really elevated the experience. Honestly, the only thing holding this restaurant back is the interior design and exterior appearance. I can barely notice the restaurant while driving by because the outside signage and overall presentation don't stand out. Meanwhile, Fogo de Chão (in Katy for example) catches attention immediately because the building and interior feel upscale and polished. Avenida seriously has better meat quality in my opinion, but the restaurant could benefit greatly from renovating the interior, improving the lighting, and creating a more modern and inviting romantic vibe. The food and service deserve a much busier crowd.

This establishment is unfortunately on the lower end of the scale…read more The concept is the same as any other Brazilian steakhouse. You have staff walking around, offering you different cuts of meat and even grilled cheese. There's a tiny selection of cold dishes and accompaniments- the pork belly was too hard to chew, the empanadas were cold and hard, they also had beans and rice and sushi... Can't recommend, I truly was hoping this would be an alternative as most other places are kind of far from the area.

There was a live guitarist/singer playing which was a fantastic vibe. A complimentary basket of four pieces of cheese bread was brought out, excellent way to start the meal! For two people, we ordered: 2x Coxinha (3.5/5): While the chicken is a tad dry, it's complimented well by the creamy sauce 1x Kibe (3/5): Reminded me of a meatball crossed with a falafel, like something you'd order on a skewer. Not too grainy and a nice smoky flavor. 1x Risole de Camarao (4.5/5): I thought this was a better version of the Coxinha. The shrimp flavor really permeates and reminds you of a shrimp risotto in a single bite. Churrasco Gaucho (16oz) (2/5): We decided to get this to sample all of the meats. Unfortunately I thought everything was really salty. Maybe it's characteristic of the Brazilian grilling style, because the smoky flavors did come through, but it just felt too salty for me on everything. Honestly maybe it just needed some kind of vegetable besides beans to help offset. Whatever their chili sauce is (5/5): I have no idea what this is but it reminds me of mashed up bird eye chili sauce..it's really good. Sprinkle it on everything. Helps with the saltiness of things. Milk Flan (4/5): A rich custard style of flan, thick and very sharable. Not too sweet. I liked this as a great palate cleanser. Service was really prompt and friendly. Paid via inKind with no issues.
