When you come in, check in with the host, wait to be seated, order and pay at the table. 2. Price - $63.50/person, and if you want to opt out of the meat, you can pay $39.50 for unlimited salad bar. 3. Ambiance - lighting is warm and dimly lit. The place is cozy and rustic, natural light during the day, leather chairs, and upscale feel. Dress code is business casual. This is a great place for a date, and spending time with family. 4. Food - amazing selection of meat. If you're a meat lover, you'll love this churrascaria restaurant. They have beef, pork, chicken, lamb, and shrimp. They have a salad bar also with all kinds of veggies and soup as well. 5. Cleanliness - Top notch cleanliness for tables, floors, and restrooms. SUMMARY I highly recommend this place. It's not an everyday occasion for us, but every time we go, it's worth every penny and the experience is phenomenal.

Constantly had servers pass me by when I had a green card showing. Third- Automatic 20% tip charge on your bill.

I will never dine here again and I highly recommend to stay clear of this place unless you already expect the above.

The meat selection was outstanding--perfectly cooked, flavorful, and with a great variety that kept the experience exciting from start to finish. The salad bar was just as impressive, with tons of fresh options and even a selection of soups, which you don't always see at Brazilian steakhouses. We were celebrating a birthday, and the service went above and beyond--they surprised us with two complimentary desserts, which was such a thoughtful touch. The cheesecake presentation, in particular, was hands down the best I've ever seen at any Brazilian steakhouse--beautiful and delicious. Overall, the combination of high-quality food, variety, and excellent service made this a memorable experience. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Houston.

What an amazing experience! I haven't been to a Brazilian Steakhouse since I've been in Texas…read more Today was the day! Beautiful decor and ambiance. Great upscale feel, but also can be casual dress I believe is preferred. But! I did see people with shorts and rompers on as well. So it's up to the experience wanted. The food was really good. Many...many options on the buffet. Some were really good, and some so-so. It really will be personal preference. But the meat! Lord! Several kinds of steak cuts, along with sausage, lamb, chicken, and shrimp. Other sides that are passed include mashed potatoes, bananas, and cheese puffs. Before moving to the buffet, I enjoy a cup of lobster bisque soup. Delicious! Once we're were full, I asked for the pineapples. Here they are available but are a'la 'carte. They were so good and juicy! The touch of cinnamon just set it off. After this, we shared Tres' Leche' cake for dessert. Delicious and rich!!! If you're lactose...don't do it! Note: The pineapple was sweet enough for dessert, and it helps digest the meat. Maybe not a weekly experience at $70 per person, but I can experience it quarterly maybe. Definitely a repeat spot.

Yes, you could get your meat cooked to your desired temperature. The salad bar was really nice, if you are NOT allergic you MUST try the crab salad!!!! This is not to say the other items in the salad bar aren't good but the carb salad was boss! They have a version of the wedge salad that is quite impressive. They have this beautiful shrimp skewer that was masterfully seasoned and grilled to perfection. Like Silk Sonic said in one of their songs "full of flavor". There are pictures of masterfully grilled Ribeyes, Skirt and other steaks. Pro tip don't allow the servers push you to eat too fast. Turn your card over indicating you do not want meat at the moment. I recommend this business. GN3

By the way, the manager was very friendly. He came to check on us multiple times. I came during lunch for the express lunch and the menu specifically states that you can get 6 ounces of meat and unlimited trips to the salad and hot bar. Our waiter told us that we could only go to the bar once which is not what the menu states. I just went along with it and only went to the bar once but it definitely would've been nice to go one or two more times to get some things that I did like.. Also, the waiters demeanor towards us was just very watchful, and it was a bit strange. But I enjoyed the food here. The ambience is really cute and the food was good. I got the picanha and it was cooked well and goes well with the sauces that they offer.

We visited Texas de Brazil for dinner on 5/9/26 to celebrate my birthday. This was our first time…read moredining there, and unfortunately, I truly could not imagine a worse first experience. From the beginning, service was extremely slow and inattentive. It took about 15 minutes just to get our first glasses of iced tea ordered. Throughout the meal, we were only offered four of the many meats that are supposed to be available. Of those four, two of them -- the filet and garlic picanha -- were so fatty we could barely cut through them, much less enjoy them. The service continued to decline as the evening went on. We went approximately 20 minutes without water. We asked one waiter for water, and about five minutes later, we watched him pour water for every table around us until he ran out -- but he never returned to our table. Another waiter stopped by, and we again explained that we needed water. He walked away and went to get a dessert menu for another table instead. At that point, my husband had to get up and find a pitcher so we could fill our water ourselves. We expressed our concerns to the waiter during the meal, but nothing was done to improve the experience. When we raised the issue further, we were told he was unable to "do anything about the bill," which was disappointing considering the level of service and overall experience we had received. When it was time to leave, we waited another 10 minutes just to receive our check and then another 5 minutes for it to be picked up. My husband also let the staff know upon arrival that we were celebrating my birthday. I was under the impression that Texas de Brazil did something special for birthdays or anniversaries, but nothing was acknowledged or done. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, especially for a birthday dinner and our first visit. Between the lack of service, limited meat selection, poor quality of what was served, lack of acknowledgment for the occasion, and unwillingness to address our concerns, we left extremely disappointed and would not be eager to return.

My husband and I are huge steak lovers, so naturally we're regulars at Brazilian steakhouses. 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.

First of all, I'd like to say Erick is one of the most AWEmazing, incredibly genuine and customer…read morefocused professionals I've ever encountered. I planned my husband's 65th Birthday Dinner at the restaurant for Feb. 21. Once I visited prior to the date, he helped with certain accommodations to ensure my peace and sanity. I was indeed satisfied. However, he heard my heart and the day before the dinner, surprised me with an accommodation that had me in tears, simply because he took the time to listen to my vision and helped bring forth details that flowed in the vision. My heart is still so touched just at the thought. The day of the event, everyone, including the staff helped me pull off the surprise as scripted . The ambiance of the room was mesmerizing. They had everything we needed including sound equipment. I'm just speechless at how much more easier they made this event for me. And the food was absolutely delicious. The servers were so professional, kind and timely on everything. There was a mixup regarding the contract, but Eric and his team made sure we were taken care of and all the guests had an exquisitely high class quality experience. My husband is still smiling about his dinner and guests are still talking about how amazingly classy their experience was. That's because of the excellence of leadership and their service staff. Please forgive me... This all started with the lovely Katie and her wonderful personality and professionalism. She was very easy to talk to for planning and efficient in communication. I didn't have to chase her down. So, if you haven't, I recommend you experience this location at least once in your lifetime. Thank you Erick and Team for setting such a high standard for our next experiences at any other restaurants! I will recommend restaurant location again and again. (Btw... This is not our 1st visit and their service is consistently high quality at this location) Sincerely, A very satisfied and happy customer and wife Dr. N. Lowe

Time to Appetizers: 20 minutes Time to Entree: 25 minutes Arrived at 2:30PM on a Saturday and were directed to sit anywhere. We sat near the buffet, which was a bit unclear. 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.

This time we decided to go back for our anniversary and wish we just ate at sumo sushi right next to it instead that does have great food and customer service. This place is a joke for the quality and price. We were greeted nicely my first issue was there was a big party that was being catered to the most leaving the rest of us to wait longer. Waiters took much longer to get to our table after waters were brought. By the time they finally got to us it wasn't a wide variety like our previous visit or other places. For the price you pay here you'd think it would be worth it. So expect to eat the same meats back to back. Also the quality is not there anymore in the meats along with the stale cheese bread and crispy polenta. We were offered a complimentary dessert that we ended up paying for which was fine since we wanted dessert anyway. Ordered the tres leches and that alone was a 2/10. If you're used to Mexican tres leches do not get this. It's more sweeter, and the cake is more grainy. If you're looking for something better in the area and don't want to go too far, Gauchos Do Sul in vintage park is much more worth your time and money. The $170 for 2 ppl with only water and a dessert was unfortunately a waste and of all days on our anniversary. Will not be returning.
