    Visited Brasa's accidentally yesterday while walking to another restaurant. Initially we wanted to eat at Texas de Brazil, but the wait time was 4 hours. Luckily, while walking downtown we saw the restaurant. At first it seemed to be closed, but a server saw us looking in and opened the door to greet us. Oh boy were we surprised. The ambiance was great and most importantly it was no wait time. We were sat quickly and warmly greeted by our amazing server Makayla. She was sooo knowledge, welcoming and friendly - honestly treated us like family. We immediately went to the salad bar to give a taste test and was pleased! Once we settled away from that we begin to dive into the meats. We had a few favs such as the flank steak (yummy), garlic beef and the shrimp omg omg omg! Albert came over as well to make sure the visit was going well and we absolutely loved his spirit. He introduced us the the caprini drinks and it was very good and hit the spot - specifically the blueberry! While leaving, the owner thanked us for the visit and even gave my little one a balloon. We loved our experience and will visit again very soon.

    For lunch I was amazed at the table service. These guys were on point and checked in you every 2-3 minutes. Fantastic service. One of the best I've seen at a Brazilian Gaucho. The meats are plentiful and it comes out fast, hot, and tasty. Ribeye 10/10- awesome and tender. Picanha 9.5/10- really good and they give you a lot Pork ribs 9.3/10- very tasty. I was surprised at how good it was. Shrimp 8.5/10- good but a little salty Chicken breast 9.5/10- very moist chicken wrapped in bacon. I loved it Wings- 9/10- these were very tasty but no match for the steaks The place is beautiful. See the pics. Very comfortable. Dark like all other gauchos I've seen around the nation. May be the best I've tried, and I've been to many. Would love to try the dinner one day. For the price worth every penny for the tastes and first class service.

    I would stop by around 1 pm. Pineapple is so yummy!

    Brazilian steak, my favorite is the lamb chop and picaña! Very relaxed ambiance and excellent service.

    Great addition to downtown Houston! If you're a meat eater, THIS. IS. YOUR. PLACE!!! The Meats, meats, and the meats. It's like a gigantic roller coaster of meats and shrimp. You want rare, medium, or well done, they've got it. New Zealand Lamb, shrimp, bacon wrapped chicken, bacon wrapped filet, Parmesan pork loin, top sirloin, bottom sirloin, filet- HEAVENLY, ribeye (HEAVENLY PART 2), garlic beef, beef ribs, salmon, pork sausage, and chicken wings. Potatoes, rice, and the salad bar also come with the meal. All meat is PRIME and holy smokes, you can tell! Parking: don't be worried! There's valet ($8 or $10) Want to do a private party: there's two rooms upstairs! I HIGHLY recommend this place, date night, gurus night, guys night. It's really, really good!!!!! Pricing: lunch $36.50/pp dinner- about $50/pp Waiters: Ask for Julio and Carlos! They'll set you up!

    I would give 4 stars because I felt the meat options were limited BUT we can late & last minute so I'm sure that has more to do with our timing than the actual restaurant. Plus, there was a lady who I can assume was in charge in some sense who seemed to be going out of her way to accommodate us. No complaints here at all, would definitely recommend & will be visiting again. Love the atmosphere, great decor, clean & spacious. Everything that I ate was amazing & I thoroughly enjoyed my time.

    Just sat down. Looks pretty neat in here.

    The staff is wonderful. My husband and I celebrated a little here and I loved the food. The other reviews about this place are spot on so the amount of meats they bring by are a bit less than you'd expect but they're still great nonetheless. I recommend the picanha as it was my fave. Go here

    I am a meat lover and a strong believer of you cant go wrong with steakhouses. Hence the second star. However, other than that unfortunately I was not satisfied with the whole experience. First of all, it is in downtown so good luck finding a parking space and expect to pay for it. I happened to have a sprained ankle too so I had to walk for 10 min (5min for a healthy person). Next, even though we were there for lunch and their site said $39.99, we were hit with $49.99 for the full menu. I just checked it again and no where it mentions about $50/person, or that $39 version is limited . If you choose limited option you can buy it cheaper but I was not there to eat 4-5 type of meat where at least 2-3 of them were cheap stuff like chicken and pork. Having said that if you are paying all that you might as well go to Fogo de Chao or similar higher quality places (with parking!) Anyways, moving on, we still ended up getting full menu and let me tell you we were still not impressed. For example, you either love lamb chops or hate it. I am in the lover category but their lamb chop was not even mediocre. I dont know how you can mess that up. Service is good. However nothing about this place felt authentic Brazilian steakhouse, more felt like I was in a Mexican restaurant. I love Mexican food dont get me wrong but I was there for a Brazilian Churrascaria! Salad bar was decent. Again not what I came for.

The authentic Brazilian cuisine transported me directly to the heart of the country, with each dish flawlessly prepared and bursting with an incredible depth of flavor. The perfectly grilled meats, expertly carved tableside, were succulent and tender, each cut a masterpiece of seasoning and precision. The vibrant array of offerings at the gourmet salad bar complemented the main courses beautifully, showcasing a commitment to fresh, high-quality ingredients and traditional preparations. Equally impressive was the impeccable service provided by your dedicated team. Every staff member I encountered demonstrated genuine warmth, attentiveness, and a remarkable level of professionalism. They anticipated needs before they were even voiced, offered insightful recommendations, and created an environment where every guest felt truly valued and cared for. This blend of efficiency and heartfelt hospitality significantly enhanced the entire evening. Thank you for curating such an extraordinary and memorable experience. Your consistent pursuit of excellence in both cuisine and service is truly commendable, making CHAMA Gaucha a standout destination. I eagerly look forward to my next visit.

The meat is cooked so perfectly. My favorite cuts were the ribeye, lamb chops, house special/picanha top sirloin. My husband loved the lamb chops, top sirloin and filet mignon. I really liked the peppercorn on the lamb chops and top sirloin. The amount of fat to meat was perfect for me. I really enjoyed the salad bad too. Eggplant, beets, pineapple; all delicious. As for sides, they had polenta fries, yuca fries?, beans, garlic mashed potatoes, and Mac and cheese. The garlic mashed potato was perfect. Mac and cheese was really good too.

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.

What stuck out with the lamb chops and the lamb shank . it was very tender. Our waitress and waiters were on point about who ordered what drink and what desserts. But for the employees that were going around with the meat was a kind of difficult. It was hard to get the lambs, but maybe they were just out of it so quickly because it was really good. Honestly, next time I would just get the lamb and the salad bar. Make sure to get small cuts of meat because there's been times when I asked for medium, but they will give me rare instead. So if they give you a cut you don't like, you can avoid food waste. I wish they gave us a list of what drinks that we could have. They had lemonade mixed with other fruits, but not Brazilian lemonade that was made with the rind. I don't think my coworkers knew there were an options besides basic soda and sparkling water. Mind you the lemonade mixture was pretty good. It's just sad they do not have the Brazilian lemonade with the rind.

    My husband and I are huge steak lovers, so naturally we're regulars at Brazilian steakhouses. We've…read moretried many of them around Houston -- and honestly, Avenida stands out as the best when it comes to meat quality and variety of cuts, especially compared to other well-known Brazilian steakhouses in the same price range like Fogo de Chão and Gauchos Do Sul. Besides the typical cuts like picanha, top sirloin, bottom sirloin, and lamb chops, Avenida also offers Wagyu steak, ribeye, NY strip, salmon, shrimp, and even lobster soup. I prefer my steaks medium rare, and the meat was incredibly tender. My favorites were the top sirloin, lamb chops, and filet mignon. The service was phenomenal. They don't play the usual games that many Brazilian steakhouses do by bringing out the cheaper cuts first to fill you up. Instead, they consistently walk around serving a wide variety of meats throughout the meal, which really elevated the experience. Honestly, the only thing holding this restaurant back is the interior design and exterior appearance. I can barely notice the restaurant while driving by because the outside signage and overall presentation don't stand out. Meanwhile, Fogo de Chão (in Katy for example) catches attention immediately because the building and interior feel upscale and polished. Avenida seriously has better meat quality in my opinion, but the restaurant could benefit greatly from renovating the interior, improving the lighting, and creating a more modern and inviting romantic vibe. The food and service deserve a much busier crowd.

    This establishment is unfortunately on the lower end of the scale…read more The concept is the same as any other Brazilian steakhouse. You have staff walking around, offering you different cuts of meat and even grilled cheese.

Can't recommend, I truly was hoping this would be an alternative as most other places are kind of far from the area.

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.
