   Reservations were on Sunday at 6pm. Our party was seated and it took 10 min for our server to recognize our table. Took almost another 10 min to receive our initial drink order. Did not receive the appetizers (potatoes, rolls or plantains until our meal was almost complete). We had to ask for drink refills on multiple occasions and we were only drinking water. Food was supposed to be prepared medium rare but all meat was medium to medium well. Had to ask repeatedly for specific meats like picanha and Filet. Restaurant was not cool. Felt like it was 80 degrees during our meal. When I asked, the server pointed to a mobile a/c unit. I have been to this restaurant multiple times but this was the worst experience for an upscale dinning restaurant. Will not be be back until changes are made.

   Michael, our server was really good. He was very pleasant and helpful to us since it was our first time. You guys need air tho, that’s my only complaint. Other than that, my first experience was really good.

   No A/C, rude staff, food tasted like pure salt. Felt like they only care about larger tables. The refilled our water once the whole time we were there

   The air conditioner for the restaurant was portable and it was almost 90 degrees inside the building. We could only stay about 30 minutes due to the heat. It was nauseatingly. For something that is supposed to be fine dining it was defiantly a let down. If you can’t keep your air conditioning on in the south you need to close down for the evening or tell people when they show up for their reservation instead of charging them for a miserable meal that felt like it was hosted by the fires of hell.

   It was really warm as well as dark. The portable A/C was loud, and the various fans just pushed warm air. The food was plentiful though which helped and are server was pretty good. Not sure I'll spend another $300 in the place until the problem is fixed.

   Had reservations and still had to wait over 30 min. for a table, restaurant had no air, meat wasn’t as good as the last time we went. Salad bar and hot bar were great. The air was out and the waiter told us it had been out for several days.

   The food was good but the initial time it took to get someone to wait on us after being seated was over 10 minutes. The air was also not working. They had brought in portable air conditioners and fans but it was still way too hot to eat that heavy of a meal. This is the one time that I have eaten there that I did not feel I got my money’s worth. When the waiter did finally come, he was very nice and attentive.

   We have been several times, we were treating our daughter in law because she had never been before. Our complaint would be that the meat was not up to your normal high standards, the sirloin was too tough cooked at medium rare, the filet was terrible maybe even spoiled meat (unable to eat). I asked for coffee which I was served at room temperature. Our waiter was excellent and we tipped him well, not his fault the coffee wasn’t fresh. Obviously the cooling unit was out, it would have been nice to be informed of that information so we could have changed our reservation. One last complaint my personal favorite is the lamb chops which have been removed from the circulation of meats but the price hasn’t changed, it’s actually more expensive.

    It was our anniversary. I registered on line for a 20 dollars off coupon 3 days before going and never received it. Looked in spam too. The air conditioning wasn’t working so there were fans everywhere and it was dark. The lights weren’t turned on until 5 minutes before leaving. Ok experience but actually a little disappointed since it was our anniversary:

    Would help to get the AC fixed, portable ACs made it very noisy and they dropped at least 3 glasses just to add to it, had to wait and on meat a long time in spite of several requests, probably the worst experience we have had at Texas de Brazil

    La mesa no estaba lista. Esperamos por 15 minutos que nos atendiera algún mesero y decidimos pararnos e irnos. El lugar con temperatura muy alta. Seguramente no lo recomiendo ni volveré.

    AC was out. Load due to the fans. Not enough wait staff the guy we had did his best but it seemed he was getting drinks for the whole place. Long waits between food and drink refills. Steaks where not as seasoned and nearly raw. I had more blood on my plate than food. Usually a great place to eat but not this time.

    We were a party of five. Four of us arrived promptly at 4:15. One guest was on his way and would still arrive before 4:30. The hostess said we would be seated when the fifth person arrived. This made no sense to me especially since my reservations were made 7 days before. There was no place to stand except just inside the door blocking others as they came in. This place opens at 4:15 and there were plenty of empty tables. I finally resolved this by speaking to the manager who seated us promptly. The waitstaff was superb and all of them had a delightful sense of humor. They actually made our birthday celebration memorable.

    Walked in and Air-conditioning was out! Server brought out sides before we even got water, needless to say they were cold... Protein was not abundant in the restaurant, at least not at our table! In the past it was better...lots of room for improvement!!!

    Had our small family together for my wife's birthday. Inside was extremely warm and really took away from the experience. Everyone who worked there seemed to be exasperated due to the heat. The food was good but would have been more enjoyable if we had not been sweating while eating it. We were asked three different times how old my youngest daughter was, and we still were charged full price for an eight year old. Our server was a little out of tune, but all said and done we still enjoyed our meal. We will go back for sure and chalk this one up as a mediocre day.

    I didn’t realize when I made a 1:30 lunch reservation that they close at 2:00 and re-open for dinner at 5:00. We were offered only 5 different meat choices, only one time each. We had passed on some of the meats when they came around because we had literally just sat down with a plate full of salad and weren’t ready for the meat yet… then a goucho came by and asked if we would be wanting any more of their meat because they would be closing soon. Feeling pressured to hurry up and finish, because we were the last table there and they were removing things from all the tables around us, we politely declined. The service was great. The food was wonderful as usual. I just wouldn’t recommend making a reservation right before they close, as you won’t get the full experience.

    This was a much better experience than last time, maybe 2 months ago. New manager, excellent service, our server, Mike, was friendly and definitely on top of the job. Food was great, I just wish they would add the lamb chops back on the gauchos circuit. Good experience overall.

    Food was ok not my personal favorite but I think it’s more of not the style of food that I like nothing to do with the food itself.. our waitress however was horrible! She brought us our stuff and then never came back, I was out of water for a good 30 minutes before Another waiter ended up asking if we needed help wand he was very nice.

    We had to pay extra for the lamb chops, we are already paying a high price to eat, but to have to pay another $9.00 for a very small amount of lamb chops is unacceptable. We did purchase them but could not eat them because of too much seasoning on them. We have been to many Texas de Brazil, and have always been pleased, my wife loves the lamb chops but was very disappointed with them.
