“Awesome Dinner!!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 1, 2012 via mobile

This place was awesome and has blown away any other Brazilian steakhouse that I have been to. You need to go here hungry as there is no ordering and no small portions. You have the option of just getting the salad bar or the full meal deal. Cost of the full meal is about $50 per person and the salad bar is half of that. You can easily get by with just having the salad bar. It is huge and has a number of items to choose from. It is too easy to fill up on just that as the selections are so so inviting.

When you sit down they explain the how it works and then off to the salad bar you go. When you are done the meat fest begins. They have a number of choice meats all prepared differently. They bring them to you table and slice it right in front of you. It t akes a lot of restraint not to over eat. I Wuorenma,d definitely return to this chain.

I'm not sure about the other locations, but the Miami location automatically charges. 15% gratuity because of the tourism here. Many countries don't have the tipping etiquette that we have and the servers often get stiffed so there is a need in doing this, regardless of the size of your party. There is an option to add to the tip if the service was good.

You will not be disappointed at this place.

“Amazing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 10, 2012

Beautiful cuts of meat, the salad bar is the size of a small aircraft with everything from salad to salami to sushi to fruit! The staff are very knowledgable and they have a great wine menu. Definately worth a visit

“We had a great time and a great meal.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 26, 2012

Even though this is a brazilean "churrascaria" you don't have to be a meat lover to eat here. Their salad bar is AMAZING. With a huge selection of greens, cheeses, rice, beans, soups and even sushi - there's something for everyone. Having said that, if you are a carnivore, this place might very well become your favorite dinner spot.
They have a large selection of cuts and each one more delicious than the last.

The restaurant gives you a cardboard circle (about the size of a cup). One side is green, the other side is red. As long as you have the green side facing up, the carvers will come up to your table and offer you different types of meat. And yup, you guessed it, when the red side is facing up, you can enjoy your meal without being bothered.

“The best churrasqueria I've been to!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 5, 2012

I am a meat lover, and having tried other top recommended churrasquerias in the US, this is definitely the best. The salad bar is amazing (although I'm not much into salads), because it has a great variety of cheese, salmon, sushi, lobster soup an lots more. The fresh motzarella is great to combine with the meat.

When you turn your card to green, the meat is served. After several times I've visited Texas de Brazil, of all the meat types they serve I go specially for the Picanha, Churrasquito and Beef Ribs. These three are my favorites and really great tasting.

The atmosphere is really nice. I definitely recommend this restaurant for lunch or dinner, also for special ocassions if you are a meat lover.
