Lobster bisque from the salad bar
Aaron N.

Ambience: The restaurant has a very modern look to it, and feels comfortable overall. The decor is pretty nice and creates a welcoming atmosphere, although it would be betterv if the place was a bit cleaner, but it is what it is. One thing I did notice is that the tables are placed pretty close together, so it can be a little difficult to move around when it's busy. Service: We had a reservation for 7 PM, and despite it being a busy night, we were seated pretty quickly. Our waiter Sydney was very friendly and informative. Although, the restaurant was very busy, it was sometimes difficult to find our waiter when we needed some refills or wanted to make some requests. It also took a while for us to get the check and pay, which was a slight inconvenience at the end of our dinner. Drinks: Passion Fruit Limeade - it was very fresh and refreshing. I enjoyed it, but i think $20 for a whole jug is a little bit pricey. Food: Spicy Sirloin - The sirloin had a good level of spice that wasn't that overpowerin. It was very tender and easy to cut into. Picanha - got it medium, and it had a great flavor without being overly salty, and it was also very tender. Tri-Tip - I got a thin slice that was cooked medium throughout. It was a little fatty in some areas, but the char on the outside added a lot of flavor to it. Sausage - i think it was okay. It was a little on the saltier side, but still very flavorful. Ribs - The ribs were mostly plain, and I could barely taste the sauce that it had on the outside, but the meat was tender and came off the bone easily. Falnk Steak - i got it thinly sliced, and it was tender and nicely seasoned. It tasted good, although it did seem similar to some of the other cuts that were served Salad Bar: - The salad bar has a good variety of hot and cold items. I liked the potatoes and the lobster bisque. Sides: When you first start out, they give you some Sides at your table. French Fries - The fries were crispy, but a bit dry and they could use some more seasoning or flavor. I think they would be better with some sauce, but fries are fries! Mashed Potatoes - they were light, buttery, and paird well with all of the meats. Cheese Bread - THey were served fresh and had a nice texture. These were probably my favorite sides during the visit! Also a bathroom review lol: - The bathroom is nicely decorated, but it could do with some more maintenance.

Poor service. The waiters ignored us for most of the night. We had to ask to be served. The bathroom was dirty and graffiti was cut into the toilet. When I informed the manager he seemed to not care.

We visited this restaurant for the first time to celebrate my husband's fire academy graduation, and we were very pleased with the experience. My husband and son are big red meat eaters, and they were pleasantly surprised by the variety of meats offered. I was a bit nervous about the cooking level since my husband prefers his meat well done, but the servers were great about bringing around both well-done and rarer options, which made it easy for everyone to enjoy. I was also happy that they don't charge a full price for toddlers, especially since my daughter didn't eat much, the food was a bit too heavy for her taste. Since I don't eat red meat, I stuck to the Parmesan chicken and shrimp which were part of the skewer options, both really good. The buffet area also had a nice fish option with a flavorful sauce, as well as very good rice. The pricing includes all-you-can-eat skewers along with access to the buffet. You're also served bread, fries, and mashed potatoes at the table, which was very convenient. After dinner, we tried dessert. My husband chose the cheesecake and said it was the best he's ever had. They don't offer complimentary desserts or messages by default, but I asked if they could write "Congratulations" on the plate, and they kindly did, which I really appreciated. I also ordered a coffee afterward and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. As someone who prefers dark roast, it met my expectations for both flavor and strength. I would definitely recommend this location for celebrations. The service was attentive, the restaurant was well stocked, and the food was consistently enjoyable.

The plates that were exchanged for them.  all 11 of them.

We drove up from San Diego for a friend's 50th birthday party. Her husband created the event and had been in contact with the manager to ensure it was fantastic. Unfortunately, they didn't even try. We were placed on the outdoor patio; there were 18 of us. First issue, they didn't set the tables for the correct number of people. Second issue, we had to beg and plead to have the gauchos serve us. They would come to the door, say who would like XXX, and if someone didn't immediately raise their hand, they would go back inside. Even if one of us raised our hand, they would not go around the entire table asking people if they would like to be served that meat. Third issue, my husband and I were served undercooked pork. They removed them from our plates immediately, and we never saw pork again. Fourth issue, if we requested a specific item, we would have to ask several times until someone served us our food. Fifth issue, they never brought out the accompanying items that are automatically served on the table, ie, cheese bread, mashed potatoes, bananas, etc. We would have to wait until our server came out to the patio and then request the items. They would NOT ask if anyone else at the table would care for anything. Sixth issue, they acted as if we were in drought conditions, asking for water was torture. We finally got up and brought over our own pitchers to the table. The seventh issue was that the busboys kept trying to take our plates away. Several times, one of us would have to grab our plate back. EIGHTH issue, when it was time for the cake, they brought us a steak knife to cut the cake, NO serving utensil, and saucers from coffee cups as our dessert plates. I asked for larger plates, and they brought us 11 HOT dinner plates. Just a reminder, there were 18 of us seated. You do the math; they certainly couldn't. I love Brazilian steakhouses, this one is almost the worst one I have been to, it comes in at a very close second. I would never return to this location. I felt sorry for the birthday girl. She was given ZERO love; they didn't even know who the birthday girl was. HORRIBLE representation for the Texas de Brazil franchise.

Mashed potatoes, French fries, plantains, and bread

So we came here on a evening outing since we hadn't tried it yet. Now I will say this, the style of people coming here ranges wildly from business casual to shorts and t-shirts which I thought was funny. We couldn't tell if this was supposed to be a classy upscale or low key family joint. The "Open Table" reservation system, table settings, full bar, and lighting scream moderately upscale but the salad bar/buffet style says bring your kids. The salad bar itself was fairly cramped space wise trying to maneuver around other people plus if you're tall, like me, you're going to be running your head into the hanging plants directly over the salad bar which is weird. The salad bar was decently stocked with options from salads to quinoa and green beans. The hot options ranged from jasmine rice, potatoes au gratin, and lobster bisque. For the main pieces, servers walked around with meats on a skewer serving them as requested. These included chickens, lamb, and beef various ways. Now overall, the food had good flavor and was cooked well. The price for the meal, $62 per person, wasn't too outrageous given all you get, considering they just keep coming with meat until you flip your table card to red. Be warned, if you come at peak times, be prepared for it to be crowded.

First time coming here and absolutely amazing in everything Food was an endless supply of delicious meats, the service was fast, and the overall experience and vibes were great. They offer a huge selection of drinks too so you get the best of both worlds 100% will be coming back

The food is good. The Service can definitely use some help and what I mean by that is not the people that serve the meats however the waiter. I have no idea why they even get a tip. He didn't do anything and trying to get a refill on my water took forever. The food is good, but self serve so again why even include gratuity especially if it's going to go to the waiter?

Our go-to Brazilian steakhouse! This is hands down one of our favorite Brazilian spots, and honestly... we definitely prefer it over Fogo de Chão. There's plenty of parking, and we came back for the third year in a row for our Valentine's dinner -- it's basically a tradition at this point. Pro tip: book at least 3 weeks ahead, and if you want to save yourself from the Valentine's chaos, go the day before or after. The crowd wasn't too wild tonight, but the restaurant was still PACKED (because everyone knows it's good). The ambience is always a win -- super open, lively, and the whole place just feels fun and inviting with so much food everywhere you look. Now, first-timers... listen closely: do NOT let the fries, mashed potatoes, cheese bread, and other "fillers" trick you. They are delicious, but they will absolutely take you out before the main event. Pace yourself!! They brought around 6-7 different cuts of meat, including picanha, filet steak, chicken parmesan, BBQ drumsticks, sausage, and more. Everything was flavorful and juicy, but we honestly got full way too fast thanks to the salad bar. And that salad bar? So many options -- fresh salads, sides, little goodies... it's dangerously easy to overdo it. We went to the Rancho location, which is cheaper than Irvine, and I actually prefer this one more. Dinner was about $62 per person, which is a great deal for the quality and endless meat parade. If you're craving steak + a loaded salad bar in a clean, welcoming spot, this is an absolute must-try. Shoutout to Juan for the awesome service tonight -- thank you for making our dinner extra special! We'll definitely be back (again and again).

My family has eaten at several Texas de Brazil locations, but the RC location was one we haven't been to yet. I made and received a confirmed reservation via my OpenTable app for a 1730 time slot on a Saturday night. I also responded affirmatively that we were celebrating an event. I allowed plenty of time to arrive here, yet the traffic in and around this restaurant is an absolute cluster, especially on Foothill Blvd: one might consider entering this shopping center parking lot from a different direction using other surface streets. Parking anywhere near this restaurant adds yet another several minutes of finding a parking space, even when you distance yourself farther away. Once parked, the wait to check in was short. I was greeted by a friendly hostess who confirmed my reservation and party size and again asked if we were here for a celebratory event. I replied affirmatively and told her we were celebrating our youngest son's graduation from a nearby Technical school. Our reservation name was soon called, and we were escorted to our table. The first observation I made was how cramped this restaurant felt as we walked between already occupied diners sitting at their tables. The tables are so close to each other that a gentleman kept shoving his chair into our table every time he got up from his table; his wife finally caught on by my wife's evil look at her and grabbed his chair to prevent this. After we were seated, a very personable and efficient young gentleman introduced himself to our table as "Curtis". He asked the standard questions regarding our dining experience(s) at Texas de Brazil and took our drink orders. Once that was done, he let us loose to check out the buffet area. I understand that 1730 is in the realm of the prime dinner hour. However, I was not expecting what was presented to us and fellow diners at this location. 1. It seems that because this Texas de Brazil is scaled down in size overall, the buffet area is much smaller than other locations we've eaten at. 2. The smallness of the buffet creates a swarm of hungry folks dodging in and around the buffet offerings, because it seems the staff was not keeping up to ensure there was not any offering completely missing (like the Prosciutto). Folks kept cutting in front of me as soon as they brought out a fresh plate. 3. The hot offerings when we looked were all empty or left with sadly only a couple of servings left. I mean, how do you not have enough plain rice, rice and beans, and all the other hot offerings staged in the kitchen area area ready to deploy on the depleted buffet line during the busy dinner hour rush????? As always, the parade of meats arrived from the kitchen to be offered to our table. As always, the meats we chose were absolutely delicious, juicy, and seasoned properly. I did notice there is a subtle way they get you to finish dinner: the meat parade slows down. In fact, I was observing the entire room of diners: they started asking us what meat or meats you would like more of, specifically sent from the kitchen. Throughout our dining experience at this Texas de Brazil, our server, Curtis made it a truly enjoyable celebratory dinner for us. He was there on cue to bring more bottled water, refilling our goblets as needed, making sure what meat selections we liked were bought out again, and suggested a meat (Spicy Sirloin) to try whiuch our son and I really liked. It has a nice heat element to it, so be aware. The one negative that occurred here was that both my wife and I, a couple of hours after eating, suffered minor G.I issues. It took several minutes to compare what we all ate, but the only common item that both of us ate, and our son didn't, was the whipped goat cheese spread. While we really enjoyed our dinner at this location, this restaurant's physical size, closeness of the dining tables, and inability to keep the buffet food items adequately stocked during the dinner hour rush are shortcomings that will probably be the deciding factor to drive further to the Irvine location for future Texas de Brazil meals.

Came for my brother's birthday lunch a few weekends ago. Our first time at this establishment and we enjoyed it. We had reservations at noon so the restaurant just opened when we arrived. The proteins came so fast our plates filled very quickly. Everything i had was tasty but one was a bit tough to chew. None of us could remember which cut it was since there were so much. All time fave is the picanha wherever Brazilian steakhouse i go to, it never fails. I browsed a little at the salad bar and grabbed a variety cheeses. The cheese bread is always a hit too. Service was very good, staff were attentive and quick. Restaurants were clean and beautifully decorated. We all left very full that we didn't have space for any desserts.

We had a 12:00, entering the restaurant the ambiance was very beautiful well lit room, we arrived at opening and everything was up and running. The staff was extremely attentive and friendly, the salad and sides were delicious, what I liked most is that they asked you how you like your meat, and they would slice it based on your preference rare, medium rare, medium, medium and...that was a nice touch, also they asked if you wanted a specific item brought around and they promptly brought your request, my only complaint and it's a small one is that some of the cuts were a bit salty for my taste, overall it was a great experience

Stephanie C.

MEATS! great place for carnivores! $65 Brazilian BBQ where gauchos go around with giant skewers or swords with different meats. They slice the meats in front of you and you grab the slice with tongs or in some cases, the pieces are put on your plates. Meats range from beef, chicken, lamb, shrimp and pork all served different ways. I was there for the picanha and only picanha! My favorite cut! There's also a salad bar, but has more than salads. They have soups, rice, beans, grilled pineapple, etc. don't forget the chimichurri and roasted garlic to compliment your meats! Server brings mashed potatoes, Brazilian cheese bread, fries and cinnamon plantains to the table. These are unlimited as well. Just don't fill up on these, but the bread is incredible! Soft mochi texture with cheese melted within. Service is great! Server was very attentive and friendly!! Plenty of parking. Made reservations on their website. So easy!

There are plenty of parking spaces. I didn't know they have reservation option, but the wait was not bad about 10 mins. Even though it's weekday, it could get packed. Reservation might be a good idea if planning to go eat after 6pm. The inside of this Brazilian steak-house is very nice. Service was good, attentive, and informative of all types of meats and desserts. The food was delicious, all-you-can-eat grilled meat carved tableside & a salad bar. Overall, I had a wonderful experience for the first timer. Get to experience different kinds of different cuts of the meats for $61.99.

I'm not sure about strollers but the tables are close to each other and it was difficult for a person of large/wide stature to maneuver between the tables.

They do accept them but you can't use any other coupon or discount. Apparently the cards from Costco have a specific code that lets them know.

He was extremely attentive, friendly, professional, and paid attention to every little detail. Bersain made sure we had everything we needed without us ever having to ask and checked on us at just the right times. It's rare to receive this level of genuine, attentive service, and he truly made our dining experience that much more enjoyable. Let's not forget Alejandro who has an amazing voice. He always enlightens us with his amazing vocal range. PV's is lucky to have Bersain and our personal singer Alejandro on their team! We will definitely be back and hope to have him as our waiter and hope to have Alejandro sing for us again. Highly recommend!

We live in Chino Hills and have lots of great date night options but none of them have Matt. Ask for Matt! He's an experienced professional server. All of his recommendations are spot-on; spicy margaritas weren't too spicy or sweet just like he said they'd be and the steak he recommended was tender, juicy and flavorful. He's witty, friendly, and fast and will have you laughing all night. Thanks for a great experience, Matt! None of them have free, live entertainment at your table either. The violinist, David Phuong, curates the playlist live and mixes contemporary with classics and we loved that. Leave the babies at home though, it gets very lively and the music gets loud. We loved it! You pay for what you get and we got a fantastic experience from start to finish.

The Wife and I were in the neighborhood, stomachs growling like we hadn't been fed since the Bush…read moreadministration. Naturally, we opened Yelp, the modern oracle of hunger, and landed on Biest. It sounded fancy, and honestly, who isn't always in the mood for brunch? We headed over and were pleasantly surprised by the ambiance. Not quite a restaurant per se, more like a cute little dining nook that decided to dress up for company. We were seated at a wooden half‑circle booth with plush pillows, which felt both cool and weirdly comforting, like brunching inside a stylish treehouse. Our waitress was sweet, attentive, and had that effortless "I've got you" energy. The Wife locked in the eggs Benedict, and I went for steak and eggs. Portions? Generous. Flavor? On point. The Wife will tell you the bacon was a tad firm, she's particular, but everything else was deliciously stacked on a biscuit like a little brunch monument. My steak was cooked perfectly, and the eggs were buttery enough to qualify as a personality trait. The martini that tied it all together? Exceptional. All in all, the service, food, and ambiance blended beautifully. We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu.

I had heard that management had changed, so maybe that explains the very disappointing service we experienced the last time we dined in. We ordered wine, calamari, and two pasta dishes. When our food arrived, our server repeatedly asked if we needed a box to pack it to go. We had literally just received our entrees, and my wine glass was still full. There were no other tables dining at the time, so there was absolutely no reason to rush us. A few minutes later, another employee came over and asked if we needed a box as well. Then our server comes back and asks us if we need a box again. At that point, it was honestly becoming uncomfortable. We were clearly still eating and hadn't even finished our wine. Then, shortly after, our server dropped the check on the table without saying anything. My boyfriend finally spoke up and told her that we were still having dinner and that repeatedly being asked about a box was making us feel rushed. We hadn't even finished our wine, which was clearly visible. Her only response was that she was sorry, but there was no explanation for why we were being treated that way. We just left exact cash and just ended up walking out. Unfortunately, the entire dine-in experience gave us a very strange vibe. There seemed to be a lack of awareness among the staff, while the Asian manager was hovering around and very creepily staring, walking in and out of the restaurant peeking through the windows.

My colleagues and I were invited to The Cut for a business lunch, and since none of us had been…read morethere before, we were excited to try something new. Let me just say... we were ALL impressed! The food was absolutely delicious, and the quality was stellar! The French Dip and Salad Lunch Special was superb, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their entrees. You know it's a great restaurant when everyone at the table is raving about their food! I love discovering new places that exceed expectations, and The Cut definitely did just that. Whether you're meeting colleagues for business or simply looking for a great lunch spot, this is a place worth checking out. Great food, fantastic quality, and a wonderful overall experience. We will definitely be back!

Stopped by here after seeing the reviews. Anyway I started with the calamari and the chicken wings…read more The calamari wasn't crispy but it had a unique twist to it, what tasted like cheese, and with the lemon on top, it was flavorful and something different. I took a bite into the wings, honestly nothing special, you can get the same ones at any other restaurant, they should remove them from the menu honestly. Now let's get down to my meal, I got a savory burger with fries. The burger was tender, juicy, flavorful, they use quality meat, the cheese and bacon paired nice. Overall a very good burger, I was surprised. Unfortunately the fries were just plain, I really wanted to give this spot 4 stars but it was like just biting a raw potato, no type of salt or seasoning, can get better fries at Jack In The Box. Wings:6.6 Calamari: 7.9 Burger: 8.2 Fries: 5.8

Great spot to try for brunch. The breakfast burger was great. And everyone at the table devoured…read moretheir meals. The service was kind and accommodating. Ambiance is fun for a date or casual outing with friends. After the meal I stepped out to say bye to my friends and walked back in to get the leftovers I accidentally left on the table. I was standing right outside the door and they didnt bother asking if I wanted to keep it. I was bummed that they threw it away. That burger was really good.

I've been coming to The State at Victoria Gardens on and off for quite some time, and normally I've…read morehad good food, drinks and service. Unfortunately, after our experience the other night, our entire group left saying we probably won't ever come back. There were six of us there for one of our usual meetup/catch up nights, and the restaurant wasn't even busy, which made the level of service even more ridiculous. It took about 25 minutes just to get someone's attention so we could get our drinks going. Once food and drinks finally started coming out, our server would literally stand at the head of the table, hand something to my friend and expect us to figure out who ordered it and pass everything down ourselves. Like what? He had no clue who ordered what. And this didn't happen once. It kept happening. Drinks, food, everything. I don't expect some over the top fine dining presentation, but I do expect the server to actually serve the table. We ordered two of an item and only one came out. We asked for ranch at the beginning of the meal and never got it. When we wanted a second round of drinks, it took another 20 minutes just to get someone so we could order, followed by another long wait for the drinks to actually arrive. And once again, when they came, they were handed to one person at the end of the table for us to pass around ourselves. Completely mind blowing. We finally asked for a manager. To her credit, she acknowledged that the service absolutely should not have been handled that way and comped a meal or two. I appreciate that, but the money really wasn't the point. We are foodies, especially me, and I have zero problem spending money on good food, good drinks and good service. I would have gladly paid the entire bill if the experience had been worth it. As far as the food and drinks, my bacon wrapped dates were delicious and both of my Old Fashioneds were perfect. The short rib tacos though? As mid as mid can be. Overall, just a horrible dining experience, especially from a place I've enjoyed in the past. It's honestly sad because I really did love their drinks, but this experience was bad enough that none of us have any desire to come back.

Sixteen years can go by in the blink of an eye... unless you walk into Steer 'n Stein…read more I moved back to Rancho Cucamonga in 2010, and somehow all those years since then have flown by. But every time I come here, it feels like 2010, 2011, or 2013 all over again. Back when life felt a little simpler, before everything got a little crazy. While Rancho has grown and spots around Victoria Gardens keep coming and going, this place has stayed exactly the same. It also brings back even older memories of going to the original Chino location with my grandparents as a kid, which makes it hit on a deeper level. This is not just a restaurant to me. It is tied to different chapters of my life. We dined in for the first time in about eight or nine years, and it felt like nothing had changed in the best way. Same menu, same warm and attentive service, same familiar steakhouse atmosphere that just feels comfortable and genuine. The food still delivers. The stockyard steak is reliable, the baked potato comes out piping hot, and the French toast is still a standout. Even the simple house salad works. Crisp, fresh, and no frills. And your drink will never go empty. There is something special about a place that does not try to reinvent itself. It just stays consistent, and in doing so, it becomes part of your story. My only small critique is the credit card surcharge being passed on to customers. I understand it, but it would feel more seamless if it were built into the pricing. Time keeps moving, Rancho keeps evolving, and life keeps changing... but this place stays right where you left it. And that might be its greatest strength.

I'm sorry to post this...but you guys lost your touch straight up BIG TIME …read more.. We went Saturday for dinner .... EVERY SINGLE UTENSIL ON OUR TABLE WAS DIRTY ... like really..?​...​​​ I'm not taking water spots...I'm talking pieces of food chunks.... OUR PLATES HAD DRIED KETCHUP TOO... Our steaks had ZERO flavor .... 100% bland... Nothing like the amazing steaks you guys made.... WHOEVER cooked your steaks in the past....BRING THEM BACK!​​​ The baked potatoes looked frozen / reheated..... I'd strongly recommend a 100% total TOP TO BOTTOM cleaning of that restaurant ... everything just looked grimy and dusty... lastly we had an incredible amount of gnats and PINCHER BUGS in our table....the dinner was sadly...I won't be back.....you lost a 30 year customer....
