We love BRUNCH! I was told during a work lunch that Churrascos has a wonderful brunch on the weekends. So I decided to take my honey out and see if they measured up to the chatter. Cons: Buffet area is very small. All of the 5 hot stations were manned by one man and right in the middle of the buffet area. Server did not make us aware of items that we had to order from the kitchen (tree leches pancakes, French toast). The pancakes are so good! I do not eat tees leches cake, however these pancakes were very delightful without syrup! Navigating the parking garage may be tricky, so remember where you parked and on what level. There were a lot of us getting our steps in after leaving the restaurant. Pros: Many delicious options. The food was always hot and fresh, as the kitchen would refill very often and turn the food simultaneously. The portion size placed out was also very small so it was unlikely to get cold or old. You received the same great service from waitstaff as if you are dining in for lunch or dinner. Seating is not cramped and the restaurant is not loud like other brunch spots around town. It felt great that I did not have to yell across the table during brunch and that we were seated right on top of other people. If you order a drink, it will be delicious and strong. Overall, I will be back for brunch. My honey is not much of a buffet style person. Although he did say he enjoyed the variety of options available. The buffet exposed him to the cuisine, ambiance and service level of Churrascos and ultimately he decided he would like to come back for lunch or dinner. So if you are in the mood for a nice dining experience, with good food and drinks, this place could be for you. I say try it at least once.

Excellent Sunday brunch buffet. Waiters were not very attentive. Luckily it was a buffet, but I waited quite sometime to get something to drink.

Food was very good, I was extremely satisfied with all of our order from appetizers to main dishes and deserts, all food was fantastic. But what set the place apart was the service! Ricardo and the rest of the team, took excellent care of our group and made the visit an outing to remember. Thank you!

Extremely hot/uncomfortable in restaurant! When I mentioned to our server, he was surprised to learn that management did not call us the day before to tell us AC was out!? Not only did they not tell us ahead of time, they did not mention this before we were seated and ordered! VERY DISAPPOINTED!

Extremely Disappointed During a Special Occasion. As someone who frequents this upscale restaurant, I’ve come to expect a certain level of quality and comfort. Unfortunately, today’s visit—meant to celebrate a birthday—was a major disappointment. The air conditioning was broken, and the heat inside was unbearable. Other guests were visibly uncomfortable, fanning themselves with menus, and it was clear the staff was struggling as well—you could see them sweating while doing their best to keep things running smoothly. We spoke to the manager, who did acknowledge that the AC had broken down. However, he said there was nothing more he could do. For a restaurant of this caliber, that response was incredibly disheartening. It’s frustrating to have a special occasion marred by something so basic as climate control, especially when the issue clearly affected everyone in the dining room. I sincerely hope they take steps to prevent this from happening again.

We had a wonderful family luncheon where everyone enjoyed the super buffet, even my 6-year-old great-grandson. He especially liked the waffles with all the trimmings.

The service was excellent! It was Mother’s Day and I felt like the managers kept looking at us to see when we were going to get up to sit other guests. The churros lady serving was very very nice but she barely gave me an 2 ounces of churrascos. The pig was disgusting and so were the carnitas. The tres leches was a joke in a sample cup.
