Just the facts. Fact 1: They took an extremely long time to get to our table and subsequently, we were left looking at cold empty plates half the time. Even though my card was turned to the "green" side, I still had to flag two people and wait over 20 minutes to get a piece of chicken. Fact 2: I paid almost $400 for my family of 6 (no alcohol). One would think that in a meal that lasted 2 hours I could get more than 1 refill of iced tea, but no. 1 refill in 2 hours. Fact 3: This was a dinner party of old military friends. We were told that there was a military discount. After we get our checks, we were informed that it was ONLY for active duty. Fact 4: When I received my check, I had to send it back 3 times because I was overcharged. 3 TIMES!!! First they charged my family for an extra dessert, then they charged us for an extra meal, and THEN they charged us for extra drinks. Did I mention our check was almost $400? Well, that was only because we corrected it. It was originally well over $400 had we not paid attention to our check. Fact 4: When I asked for a discount for having to correct the check 3 different times, they told me that I could get a discount on my NEXT visit. There will be NO "next visit". Fact 5: In between each incorrect charge, the server repeatedly asked for my card so they could run it after the change. So basically, I would have been overcharged on any of those accounts were I to actually give them my card. Fact 6: We were forced to pay a 20% gratuity on extremely subpar service. In all seriousness, I cannot remember the last time I had service this poor. Fact 7: I strongly recommend NOT going to this restaurant! read more

Great food and service. Sirloin and Ribeye was off the chain.!Salad bar was awesome.

This is my third brazilian steakhouse experience and he chose to make reservations for us on Valentine's Day! Our reservations were for 7:30pm, but we got there early and were seated within 5 minutes. Our waiter was absolutely slammed and really tried his best to check on us periodically throughout the evening.. I say "tried" because it was honestly so busy that night and I can't fault him for that. It's a buffet, so we did not really need him but to request more dinner rolls and new tongs and to order dessert at the end of our meal. The salad bar display was very easy on the eyes - everything was neatly labeled, sitting on ice, and visually presented on platters. My favorite salad bar items were the artichokes, smoked salmon, & prosciutto. Make sure you grab a dish and fill it with chimichurri sauce for your meat later!! The cheese bread here was served warm and very tasty! Just like any other brazilian steakhouse, you flip to green and wait. My favorite meats were: Spicy Picanha, Spicy beef (tri tip?), filet mignon wrapped in bacon, and their chicken was so surprisingly flavorful and tender. My least favorite was the lamb. For dessert, we got the columbian coffee (would not recommend.) It tasted like there was rubbing alcohol in there or some serious home distilled moonshine. I took a sip and immediately did that cough/wheeze like I took a shot of liquor. Super unexpected. We did, however, really enjoyed the papaya cream. This is one of my favorite desserts and I love that it's so easy on the palette and stomach after such a heavy dinner. I really enjoyed our dinner here and would love to come back! read more

Service was amazing I definitely refining coming here. Food was great too. Definitely recommend

Dang, I've always been going to Fogo De Chao for Brazilian BBQ but I gave this place a try. From now on, I will be coming to this place instead of Fogo De Chao for Brazilian BBQ! Cheaper with higher quality, nothing to complaints! Also, its not as busy as Fogo De Chao so the servers are more focused on you. read more

Second Time coming to dine here. First Impression was amazing but this second experience was Unforgettable, our very knowledgeable and catering server Ruben made it especially memorable. Great wine knowledge and very good at recommending. Manager Ryan was very sweet and made the experience special. I say this because my friends and I are younger then the typically guest (23) and i've experienced lack of good service due to assumptions, but not at this establishment. Highly recommend especially if it's your first time having the Brazilian steak house experience. If i could give 6 stars i would. read more

if you're looking for the brazilian style steakhouse experience i would recommend going somewhere a bit different.. not that this place wasn't good, it was just a bit pricey for the food/experience. location is a bit awkward and i would choose texas de brazil over this place any day of the week. you should too if you want to get your bang for your buck. read more

Travel to Dallas often for business.... this place is now added to standard rotation. Typically to-go steak is not something I do, but took a gamble. Really solid simple deep flavor and satisfying meal. Seriously never had a Picanha so tender but still have a good chew/mouth feel. For sure recommend! Nit picky... give better plastic ware for steak take out. read more

Came here for my company Christmas party. If you have been to Texas De Brazil, Fargo De Chao it's along the same lines. Salad bar was good I'm a bread person and the rolls were great. Meat was great as well. They served fruit bananas mash potatoes and something else I can't remember the name. The service was good as long as it was on green they kept coming even with as many people that were there and glass never stayed empty. read more

It's pretty bad. Plenty of other WAY better Brazilian steakhouses. Seriously, this place sucks. Not sure where all the wonderful reviews are coming from. Service is fine. Food: tasteless. Fruit flies buzzing. read more

One Friday evening after a couple of particularly stressful weeks my husband decided to cut out of work early and take his wife out for a fine dining experience to help alleviate some of the frustrations of every day life. So we got a sitter for our five children and he whisked me off to VB Steakhouse in Arlington. I was so excited to go but honestly a bit tired from a long week. However, the moment we walked into this establishment we were greeted warmly and promptly seated at the best table in the restaurant, right near the crackling fireplace. The ambiance was so warm and relaxing. As our hostess seated us we were quietly surrounded by what seemed like eight ninjas dressed all in black who quickly and silently placed our silverware, dining cards and sparkling glasses of ice water and the most delicious little appetizers and bread on the table and then disappeared as fast as they as they had come. It was almost magical. We were greeted warmly by the manager and he explained to us how everything worked and then the waiter showed us to the appetizer and salad buffet. The buffet was exquisite and lovely, full of so many fresh mouthwatering treats. As a person who doesn't typically eat a large amount of meat on a daily basis I really felt I could have come just for the salad buffet and been perfectly satiated by that alone. Then came the meat! Oh the meat! Every so often one of the meat servers would appear and quietly walk by with their offerings, which only got better and better as the evening went on. The meat was melt-in-your-mouth perfectly tender and juicy. We were enjoying ourselves so much that we decided to live it up a bit and get the full experience, so we also tried some of the specialty menu items like the old-fashioned and the flaming coffee with a slice of cheesecake, and the lemoncello drink after our meal. The old fashioned was was the most beautiful I have ever seen or tasted. The custom piece of ice and garnishments were perfection. The flaming coffee presentation was an absolute work of art that left me gasping and clapping as though I were at the circus! We raved to friends about that flaming coffee for days. The dessert was heavenly, the service was top notch, the food was delicious! Highly recommend and we will definitely be back. Our special thanks to our waiter who never missed a beat, and the manager Ryan who checked in with us and made sure our experience was impeccable- we thank you so SO much for a much-needed escape from this crazy world if even for just a few hours. Great job guys keep up the good work!!! read more

This review is limited to their food service at the bar. By myself on a business trip, I didn't feel like doing the whole table service thing so I sat at the bar. I suspected I was in trouble when they told me there was no waiter service with the skewers at the bar. I asked or a menu, then. "No menu," I was told. They did offer a 'platter' of whatever meats I wanted. Ok, I thought, same thing, really. Not so. The meats were dried out, over cooked, and poisonously salted. Probably my fault for going outside of their mainstream. I would give them another try at the regular tables. This warning is limited solely to eating at the bar. Hope for better results next time! read more

Food is comparable to other Brazilian Steak houses, good, but a bit over priced. Overall, not disappointed, just believe it's pricey for the experience and ambiance. Our server was on it and the staff were spectacular and on it in every aspect. 20% Gratuity was already added on my check and they almost got me for an additional $80 tip. Glad I double checked receipt to see how much they charged for drinks and changed my tip amount. So watch out on that aspect and don't get took like I almost did. When I was a waiter I told large tables if gratuity was already included and said "feel free to tip me more if you think I'm worth it". Hell most of the time I rolled the dice and didn't add it, because you know, I rocked. read more

First time at a Brazilian steak house. So my expectations were tempered. I loved it. They kinda of undersold me and I felt the lesser lunch option would still be enough. It was amazing 6 meats but each meat was cooked in a different style and flavors. Add the salad bar to that and we left stuffed. I liked all but one of the meats in a certain flavor. Definitely will go back and probably have the same thing. Treat yo self if you can!! read more

Food and service was great! Hostess was rude when we came in, telling us they did not seat people past 9:30 pm, trying not to let us eat- but when we left- they were seating people at 9:50. Other than that, everything was top notch! Always love the cheesy bread! read more

The food was amazing! First time at a Brazilian steakhouse and i was a little skeptical since so many locations in DFW have such mixed reviews, but decided to give them a chance. So glad I did! The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable I've never felt more comfortable and welcomed! I wish I would've taken some pictures. It's a really nice ambiance for a date night or a family dinner. The desert was delicious we had the fireball cheesecake and the presentation of it was so fun! The drinks were good and strong but not overwhelming. Cannot recommend them enough. read more

$42 for bottom sirloin is way too much money! I don't eat meat but wanted to treat my mom to a steak. She got one serving and had to wait 15 minutes to get it cooked medium. The salad bar, drinks and side dishes were good. They did not give us any options so don't know if there was a way for my mom to just order a steak and not bottomless skewers. Feel taken advantage! read more

VB Steakhouse - Good beer - Steakhouses Near Me - Arlington, Texas

What can I say about this place?! I've only been to one other Brazilian steakhouse, and I would have to say I am in love with this place. We walked in and we're promptly greeted and seated. Our server then recommended a Brazilian drink that they make on front of you ( described as a mojito without the mint ). The salad bar was a little light on selection compared to the other steakhouse I've been to however it was still really nice and had a good variety of salad items and side dishes. The meat was a little slow to come out and a few meats came out several times. In the hr we were there for I only saw 5 different types of meats ( not sure how many there really were) however they gave great slices of meat, not little slivers The servers are very attentive and we're always near by yet they were not hovering. We ended our meal with Brazilian coffee and another coffee that was prepared in front of us. It was about 28$per person which is a great deal for the quality of service and for a Brazilian Steak house. Husband and I will definitely return in the near future. read more

How they get the meat so tender, with the delightful crispy outside, and all the fat rendered just perfectly... it's just beyond me, and so delicious! Ok, also, I know this is probably not why people usually go to a Brazilian steakhouse, but that salad though! The salad bar is just fantastic. Artichoke caps, hearts of palm, capers, every olive ever known to humankind, raw veggies, sliced beets (not pickled, thank goodness), and four different kinds of dressing to add- yeah, I tried a little of each dressing... they're all good. It's just yummy! My favorite meats were the bacon-wrapped chicken and the ribeye. My spouse's favorite were the spicy beef and bottom sirloin. Gosh, they're all just so perfectly cooked and flavored and mmmmmmmmm MMm!! And the cheesy bread, that's not really bread, to soak up the steak juices from your plate. They also have a good lunch price- it was just under $50 for both of us to eat. So get your hiney over and have you some yummy food! And finish it all with a perfectly prepared creme brûlée. You won't regret it, except maybe when they have to roll you out because you ate too much. read more

VB must be having some serious management issue. A manager (Gil) messaged me on Yelp. Gil apologized for the previous manager and said the previous manager wasn't there anymore. He invited me back to give them a 2nd chance. Gil asked me to email him and that was more than 2 weeks ago. He seemed so sincere. I appreciated that he invited us back and was going to bring 2 other paying customers. I wasn't expecting anything when I wrote that 1st review. It was nice that Gil offered. Now it sucks more that he just left me hanging. Why make that offer in the 1st place? read more

First thing came to my mind when I decided to write a review for them is service. Very impressed! Everyone is very attentive, nice. We never have to wait for anything. AMAZING! We were their for lunch.The salad bar offered more then 20 types of salad. 2 different types of soup. Usually during lunch time they do not offer many types of meat. But I was completely satisfied with what they offered here. Really tasty and nice cut. Perfect medium rare to me. My favorite one was the garlic beef. Nice amount of seasoning and garlicky. We also had creme brûlée for dessert and it was delishh, creamy and smooth in your mouth. Thank you for the good service. I really enjoyed spending time here. Will be back offend. read more

Can you say "yummy" foodies? I am REALLY impressed. VB Steakhouse did not disappoint. In fact, we are bummed we hadn't eaten here before. It is terrific. The service has been stellar, very attentive. My gurrlfriend says "this is what I expected from another restaurant but never got. It's so much better than I expected!" The meats are tender and served piping hot. Garlic sirloin is my fave. Spicy steak was loved by the table, spicy with a white pepper sauce. YUM!! and the salad bar was perfectly proportioned to the dinner and the selections were spot on. Pay attention to your Waves app, it's on the south side of 30 but north of the Rangers Ballpark and west of Six Flags. You're going *LOVE* it!!! read more

Excellent dinner experience last night with great friends!!! Atmosphere was wonderful, service great, and food spectacular! I'm not a big meat eater so settled for the very nice salad bar which included a wonderful crab salad as well as chicken dishes. The bacon wrapped chicken was great...so moist, tender and cooked perfectly! Desserts were great...especially the flaming cheesecake (see pictures)! The key lime pie was very good although the filling was not as tart as I expected and not sure if the crust was made from graham crackers! Although the flavor was different, it was still a great pie! Price was acceptable especially with the great service and food. I thought it was less expensive than comparable upscale steakhouses!!! read more

I've never been to a Brazilian steakhouse before, so this being my first was definitely a great choice! I love the salad bar, they even had sushi, shrimp, and salmon. The meats were soooo juicy and tender. Some were a little more salty than others but it was still delicious. Also the bread with cheese is delicious and my favorite side dish was the fries polenta. Other side dishes were good too; mashed potatoes and plantains. Also had some black beans and rice! Amazing! No room for dessert so I don't know if it's any good! read more

The best call out I have ever had. Everything is perfectly amazing The Garlic Beef meal and the grilled veggies are perfect. Don't miss this place when you are in town. It's worth the time read more

Delicious !!!! We are in town for Rangers and Cowboys. If your hotel is near stadium, restaurant less than mile away. No wait for two people on a Saturday night at 8. Picanha is the best !! Salad bar so good could be a meal by itself. Had meiomi wine a go to Pinot noir. Definitely recommend and would come back when in town next. Couldn't give a 5 because BF water and wine wasn't kept full at end. read more

Great experience the first couple of times we've been. Had a bad experience the last time we were there (food wasn't quite as good and the flaming cheesecake experience wasn't the same). I'd still recommend it if you haven't been. A bit on the pricey side but for the majority of our visits the food and service were great. read more

We came to the restaurant for our family dinner. I made the reservation and we were a few minutes late. We didn't mind waiting for the table to be ready. It was the hostess that started with the bad experience. When we arrived she let us know the table wasn't ready and we could see they were full. So we waited at the bar. However, the bartender was at the receptionist desk with her phone out talking to the hostess. So I walked over there and was like hey where is the bartender? The bartender says oh I will be right there. Meanwhile there was another person that worked there standing and watching us at the bar and did not once say let me get someone for you. We finally get to order our drinks. Then we get tour table and it was smooth sailing after that. The food was delicious and the each meat that sent to the table was well seasoned and fresh. The salad bar is also a big hit. I did like that it was all you can eat style for the salad bar. I was not a fan of the mashed potatoes, they were cold. Other than the not so hot customer service in the beginning it was great. read more
