It was a brief delay, only around 55 minutes before we bullied the hostess into finally seating us. Plenty of time to be ignored wholeheartedly by the apathetic bartender and enjoy the 95 degree temperature of the lobby. We ended up at the best table in the house! Seated mere inches from the kitchen, we were able to watch as the Gauchos brought delicacy after delicacy from the galley and promptly sprint past our table to other areas of the restaurant, returning only once their supplies had run dry. That is with the notable exception of the young man carrying drumsticks of chicken that became drier and less appetizing with each effete attempt to pawn them off on our table. Any complaints I might have had about any of that were assuaged by the inattentiveness of the staff and the wonderfully tepid food at the Market Table. Might go back for lunch soon, I hear the price is lower and they even kick you in the crotch if you are lucky.

The gauchos kept calling me "the Boss," and it was awesome! They joked with me, made me laugh, and made me feel like I was the most important person in the restaurant. The restaurant is really cool because it feels special, but it's also cozy. You don't have to get super dressed up to enjoy an amazing meal. It feels fancy enough for a celebration but comfortable enough that everyone can just relax and have fun. The coolest part was that the gauchos remembered how everyone liked their meat cooked. They would come back to our table with meat cooked exactly the way each person liked it. I thought that was really cool because it showed they were paying attention. My mom's favorite things on the salad bar were the asparagus and the eggplant. I know that sounds funny, but they were really good! My favorite was all the delicious steak with rice. Every time a gaucho came by with another cut of steak, I was ready! The grown-ups also loved the drinks. My mom said her espresso martini was delicious, and everyone said the Kahlúa martinis were really good. Everyone was so nice, and they made my whole family feel welcome. Thank you, Randy, and all the gauchos, for treating me like "the Boss!" We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Houston!

I definitely recommend Gauchos Do Sul in Highland Village for the ambiance and view. I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses and Gauchos seems to be the best one that has a nice salad bar and located on the third floor. You have a nice view overlooking Highland Village. The dinner price is pretty reasonable, which includes the salad bar. We got there early and made it to Happy Hour too. The dinner selection also included lamb chops! The lamb chops were pretty generous in size and cooked perfectly medium rare for me. The service is great too! I highly suggest booking a reservation through Open Table or directly in Gauchos website. You can check out their Happy Hour menu and prices there too.

This was quite literally the worst Brazilian steakhouse I've ever been to…read more We had a reservation for 7:45 PM on Valentine's Day. We got there and checked in right at 7:45 pm. We still had to wait 30 minutes. It was a Saturday night and Valentine's Day so it was busy and I get it. However, once we were sat, after nearly 2 hours, I only had about 6 pieces of meat. We didn't get offered half of the meat. Most of the meat we did get offered weren't even beef, mainly chicken, sausage, etc. Our cards were flipped to the green side the WHOLE time we were there, but servers were either skipping or just not even coming. Despite making eye contact. then, when we were offered certain meats, they would cut a slice for my s/o, but when it was my turn, the server would say "oh i have to get your cut from the back, I'll be right back" then never come back. This happened twice. By the 3rd time, i was clearly upset and that may have been the only reason the server actually came back that time. Our server also kept asking if we were just waiting on meat, in which we'd say yes just to still continue waiting. After THREE hours and still about 6 meats total, we requested the dessert menu - another 15 minutes just to get the menu to us. At this point, we ordered it and i asked to speak to the manager. I have never requested to speak to a manager at a restaurant before, that is how horrible this experience was. Again, had to wait for the manager to make his way to us. Once i explained to him my experience, his response in general was a very like "welp that sucks" attitude & didn't even seem really concerned. He offered to charge us as a "lite dinner" + drinks + dessert. Which I still dont even think is a fair resolution, because my dinner was their mashed potatoes, cheese bread, and 6 slices of meat. Even getting the check took time. God bless the host/hostess as they seem to be fighting for their life trying to get everyone seated. In the future, if there isn't availability, then they shouldnt be offering reservations they cannot honor. Will not be back and i definitely do not recommend the place.

Their salads were fresh and there's a lot of varieties. Same idea as any table side service you get at other places, But this one had some great staff and the cuts of meat were so delicious and done to specifications. About $70 per person but it's all worth it. They even give servings of mash potatoes to go with your meals. All their meats were seasoned well and so tasty. They had some fancy drinks also that came with an experience. Very vice and upscale.

You have staff walking around, offering you different cuts of meat and even grilled cheese. There's a tiny selection of cold dishes and accompaniments- the pork belly was too hard to chew, the empanadas were cold and hard, they also had beans and rice and sushi... Can't recommend, I truly was hoping this would be an alternative as most other places are kind of far from the area.

Went during restaurant week in the fall and the wait was insane. I made a reservation for 7. We…read moredidn't get seated until closer to 9pm after we had already left and they called us back. I feel they should've prepared for the reservations and put limits or planned the seat turnover time accurately. It was the first day of restaurant week so I think I was just very patient that day lol. Food was delicious and included dessert as well. I really enjoyed the sides per usual I got full off the sides and tried to squeeze in as much room for meat. Picanha is always my favorite at any steakhouse. It also seemed like people without reservations were cutting in line since they knew the staff which was not the best feeling for the rest of us that had reservations. If I go back it definitely wouldn't be during restaurant week.

Time to Appetizers: 20 minutes Time to Entree: 25 minutes Arrived at 2:30PM on a Saturday and were directed to sit anywhere. We sat near the buffet, which was a bit unclear. There was a live guitarist/singer playing which was a fantastic vibe. A complimentary basket of four pieces of cheese bread was brought out, excellent way to start the meal! For two people, we ordered: 2x Coxinha (3.5/5): While the chicken is a tad dry, it's complimented well by the creamy sauce 1x Kibe (3/5): Reminded me of a meatball crossed with a falafel, like something you'd order on a skewer. Not too grainy and a nice smoky flavor. 1x Risole de Camarao (4.5/5): I thought this was a better version of the Coxinha. The shrimp flavor really permeates and reminds you of a shrimp risotto in a single bite. Churrasco Gaucho (16oz) (2/5): We decided to get this to sample all of the meats. Unfortunately I thought everything was really salty. Maybe it's characteristic of the Brazilian grilling style, because the smoky flavors did come through, but it just felt too salty for me on everything. Honestly maybe it just needed some kind of vegetable besides beans to help offset. Whatever their chili sauce is (5/5): I have no idea what this is but it reminds me of mashed up bird eye chili sauce..it's really good. Sprinkle it on everything. Helps with the saltiness of things. Milk Flan (4/5): A rich custard style of flan, thick and very sharable. Not too sweet. I liked this as a great palate cleanser. Service was really prompt and friendly. Paid via inKind with no issues.
