    Food was great per usual, but our service was awful. Felt as if we were in the way/ a burden to our server. Normally this is not our experience when we come to Churrascos but this time it seemed the party clean up was more important than the few tables eating in the dining room. Moving forward we will choose to go somewhere else where the service matches the food and experience. Hate to see one of our families favorite places go down hill so drastically.

    They do not know how to have customers use Apple Pay. They kept telling me my card was declined. But what happened is the cord was not long enough for me to show my face.

    We didn't end going because we walked in, we saw how unappealing the decor was, a phone was ringing in reception and nobody was there to pick it up. We waited in the front for about 5 minutes and left. it is a shame to see a restaurant like CHurrascos go down the tubes. What a disappointment!

    Easter brunch was a terrible experience. We had to wait 40 minutes even though we had a reservation. Everyone else was experiencing the same thing. The restaurant was so crowded we could barely walk. When we did finally get seated, we had no silverware. After 15 minutes we had to ask for silverware and drinks. The buffet items were not being refilled. So many empty items. There were no clean plates available. This was a very disappointing experience. Not worth the $45.99/pp.

    A dinner at Churrascos is always great, and the River Oaks location is not an exception to the greatness of their food. The salad with oranges, goat cheese, candied nuts and and a super tasty dressing was a perfect start. I wanted a bowl of seafood bisque but knew I would be eating a lot more food, so next was their house specialty “Churrascos” steak. It is so delicious, cooked perfectly and is different than other fine dining steakhouses. The vegetable plate that comes with the steak includes really tasty carrots, zucchini, fried yuca, fried cheese like I have had in Brazil, soft and sweet plantains and my favorite rice anywhere. Finish the meal with my favorite tres leches ever, and you have had a wonderful meal! The cocktail and wine menu is great too. If you haven’t been here before, or if it’s been awhile, try Churrascos and you will be happy that you did!
