Brasão is a Brazilian style restaurant in Irving-Las Colinas that (yes I'm biased), is the best churrascaria in all of DFW. They've recently updated their menu with several a la cart items, and I came to try the Prime Rib. Wow. My Overall Rating - 5 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - The one major change I've noticed is Brasão is getting busier. Used to, I could walk in a get a table, but now I make sure I use OpenTable to reserve a seat. If you've never been to a Brazilian style restaurant (in the US), the first thing you'll notice is the opulent salad bar that sits in the center of the restaurant. There is also a dedicated bar area that's separate and elevated, so you people watch from above. 1 Star. Service - Brasão has the best severs (again I'm biased). The entire staff works in unison with dedicated roles. Your sever will take your order why gauchos walk around cutting meat. Speaking of cutting meat, if you order the Prime Rib on Wednesday, they will cut it at your table to order. 1 Star. Food - The Prime Rib is absolutely sensational. The Prime Rib is so tender, and the au jus adds a little salt. The Prime Rib is sliced and dressed at your table, so you can see the heat and seasonings up close. My bite was so tender and flavorful, it did not need extra au jus. While the Prime Rib is ala cart, it still comes with the standard sides of mashed potatoes, fried polenta, and fried bananas. 2 Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. My first visit to Brasão was because the meats were so good. I keep coming back because the service is amazing and the menu continues to evolve. See you next month! 1 Star. read more

Was planning on going to a place in this plaza, it looked underwhelming so we shifted and walked into Brazao for the 1st time for lunch WOW! This place really blew us away. We got the executive lunch which is $35 for AYCE. I've been other Brazilian places where the lunch AYCE is skimpy. Not here. They have all of the best cuts of meats including the pineapple (which is a must have) We loved every part of the meal. The servers were great and the selection is amazing. Remember to ask for chimichurrie. We especially loved the candied bacon and the salad bar. If you're looking for the best in DFW, come here. read more

My first time at a Brazilian steakhouse. I tried to be strategic but ultimately I fought the steak and the steak won!!

A perfect Brazilian steakhouse experience! The cheesy meat and the spicy picanha are the best we've ever had. The cheesy bread is delicious too. The self service area is also fresh and diverse. The service itself is amazing, above average- Sean was great! He anticipated each and every single need we'd have. read more

I came here on a week night so wasn't very busy but still made a reservation. The restaurant itself is pretty large, plenty of seating and very nice inside. I had great service from every one of the staff I came in contact with. The food itself was amazing. The salad bar had plenty of great tasting options as well as some hot items you could choose from next to it. The meat options were all great tasting to where I forgot how many times the meat cutters came by to add to my plate. They also frequently went walking around so there wasn't a long wait time in-between to get something you wanted. Overall I had a great experience celebrating my anniversary dinner here. I would definitely visit this restaurant again. read more

Will preface review with this: I came on a Sunday evening for my birthday and it was quite empty, maybe less than 10 tables. Saw 4k reviews on Google so was a bit surprised to see. To start off, the staff were all very pleasant and attentive. Since it was my birthday, the dessert we ordered was on the house which was a nice surprise. Now on to the not so great--Maybe because it was so empty that the self serve bar seemed like everything sat for past their prime. Had an array of salad, cheese, etc. nothing you'd want to go back for seconds. On to the meat -- each piece tasted more or less like the last. I will say, the filet mignon was tender as expected. For a steakhouse none of the offerings were particularly spectacular. Not sure I would return unfortunately. read more

YES. Amazing experience! Came on an early Friday evening to celebrate with husband and kiddo. The place is beautiful and the chairs were really comfy - I know that's a weird note but the comfiness is worth noting haha. We opted for the full experience - salad bar had amazing delectables. My fav was the cheese selection and the roasted garlic, yum! After finishing our salad, we were brought out new plates for our meats. Service was quick! We had tried everything in a matter of moments. We shared a side of mashed potatoes which was good - something simple to soak up all the flavors of the meats. My favs were the spicy picahna, lamb chops, and the grilled pineapple though everything was delicious. To end our celebratory dinner, we selected the flaming cheesecake and it was the best cheesecake I've ever had. 5/5 yelp stars. Enjoy!!! read more

A Brazilian steakhouse is a Brazilian steakhouse, why is this one different from all the rest? The service team we had for our large party was exceptional. We never needed a refill or anything else because they were so attentive. The food offered was good, with a good circulation of the various meats but the real crowd pleaser was the roasted pineapple. Goodness. It's Devine. Hands down we want to go back just for the pineapple. The ambiance is great for a classy lunch or dinner, the service amazing, and the food is great.

My wife and I have recently visited this location for the first time during lunch hours and we had a great time. The food was delicious and the servers did a great job. Water isn't free like most places but I'm not mad neither, still would recommend this restaurant - probably the best Brazilian Steakhouse I've been so far. The restaurant itself is clean and really pretty as well. PS : The lady at the front door deserves a shout out, super polite and her energy was amazing, she wished us Happy Anniversary right a the doo and received us with a big smile. read more

Brasão Brazilian Steakhouse - The delicious Picanha - Steakhouses Near Me - Irving, Texas

A totally empty bar on a Friday at a place that only offers Happy Hour Sunday thru Thursday, should probably consider extending their happy hour thru Friday to potentially attract more customers? Although at "$14 for appetizers" (which ones, though?), I'm not sure it would be a huge draw... but better. The non-happy hour bar food, however, was good even if the prices were "unhappy". Charcuterie ($20.95) and beef ribs sliders ($21.95). Service was great. Atmosphere good if not so void of people. From previous experience, the main dining area with the AYCE meats is good. But this review is specifically for the Friday 5pm bar experience, which I would never do again or recommend. read more

If you're looking for a nice date night in Las Colinas, stop scrolling now because you've found the perfect place! I cannot say it strongly enough -- this wonderful family-owned restaurant takes PRIDE in providing a great experience. The service is swift and very attentive. Management is attentive and actively coaches the staff. Our waiter, Tony, was one of the best we've ever seen at providing personal attention without being intrusive. And the food is excellent! A wide variety of well prepared options, including an excellent "salad bar" which could be a buffet in its own right. Tableside service for well made cocktails is a delightful diversion. Most of all -- I am a big fan of cheesecake, and the flaming cheesecake here is THE best I've ever had. I don't give this compliment lightly. It's absolutely to die for and a must-order! read more

Brasão Brazilian Steakhouse - Look closely -- the vanilla liquor in this cocktail was poured while on fire! - Steakhouses Near Me - Irving, Texas

Came here to celebrate my husband's birthday! We walked in to an extremely nice and elegant place. The staff here is awesome and they definitely aim to please. From the salad bar to the awesome amazing meats, shrimp and pineapple absolutely amazing!! Just a little side note. When we arrived they had us go upstairs to wait at the bar. Something wrong with something in the dining room. I believe some kind of plumbing problem . We waited about 20 minutes. They offered us an amazing dessert for the inconvenience. We didn't mind the wait because the ambiance was awesome. This place is amazing!! Can't wait to stop by again soon!! read more

Came in around 12:30 on a Wednesday, it wasn't crowded at all. The service was top tier! The servers were attentive and would come by and refill our water without us even asking. The food was great, salad bar had a good variety. The meats were a bit salty for my taste (seems like it's always salty at Brazilian steakhouses) The grilled pineapple and the spicy pichanna were the best. 10 out of 10 would come again. Restaurant week special, came out to be $160 for 4 people (they charge $9 per bottle of distilled water) read more

I don't know for the life of me why this place is highly rated. We went here for Valentine's Day. Describing it as a disappointing experience would be putting it mildly. It would be the first and last visit for me. FOOD: This was the first Brazilian steakhouse I went to that didn't serve rice. They had very limited side dishes. The meats that were going around were very bland. We just stopped letting them serve us after about 5 meats. Everything just tasted like cheap meat. Oh, and the water was NOT free. STAFF: The staff was not very friendly. They ran out of bowls for their onion soup so I asked this one lady and she kept pointing me unenthusiastically to the same table I was just at that had NO bowls. I ended up asking this guy who cleaned tables to help me out. PLACE: The floors were very slippery. You need to be very careful in walking. They also cramped so many tables in there, it's hard to walk around. Also, keeping the bathrooms clean didn't seem like a priority for this restaurant. My husband said the men's bathroom was gross! I couldn't even imagine what the women's bathroom looked like! For the price, this place was simply not worth it. My husband chose it for a Valentine's Day experience but didn't get that at all. While other restaurants would hand out roses to the ladies or decorate the tables with a Valentine's theme, this place did not even try at all making the evening special. I guess I shouldn't even be surprised with everything mediocre that I observed all evening. I recommend you take your hard-earned money someplace else. read more

sam our waiter and he did a great job was very attentive to our needs. Great food. Great place for birthdays and celebrations.

Food is good Would have been five stars BUT They charge you 5.00 for Fiji water Which made me sad. I was surprised they were pouring FIJI . But then we got the bill. $ bucks and no one asked if we wanted this. Also, I clearly ordered one wine and one cocktail and they brought me two cocktails and one wine. But that's fine. I drank it. read more

Very seldom do I give 5 stars on my first visit to a venue however, Brasão was an exception. We had a reservation and when we arrived, we were greeted with a warm and genuine welcome and escorted to our table. Brasão was amazing with an ambiance was of contemporary elegance. Our server Cristian was phenomenal. I began my culinary experience with a caipirinha.  To balance off the meal, I had a couple of leaves of spinach and olives and the rest was all meat, and the prawns were well seasoned and grilled to perfection. Cristian, Carlos and the entire staff were absolutely outstanding and this definitely will not be my last visit to Brasão read more

Happy to be back at this location for our monthly UYE. It's always a pleasure dining here. Friendly staff, high quality cuts of meat, and just great salad bar. We were here for restaurant week and were so glad that dessert is included with our meal. I opted for the Brazilian flan which is so creamy and delectable served with whipped cream topped with a slice of strawberry. This is truly one of the best Brazilian places I have been. read more

We visited Brasão Brazilian Steakhouse as guests of a financial planner. As a rule, I don't review restaurants that I visit in this situation because menus and servings may be different from what is available to regular customers. I prefer to return and dine as a regular patron and then write a review. But, tonight, I have a bone to pick. Our dinner included dessert. We asked for the chocolate cake and the strawberry cheesecake. When the desserts were brought out, the servings were big and beautiful. Too much for us to comfortably put away after the array of meats we were served. So, we asked for our desserts to go. No problem. But, someone decided to pack ridiculously small servings in white clamshell boxes and brought them out in a paper sack. A few of the other couples requested their desserts to go. I wonder if they got similar surprises when they got home. I suppose our financial planner was charged the full price for our disappointing desserts. I'll have to ask him when we meet again. I will point out that the food we were served was delicious. The wait staff did a fine job of looking after us and the carvers were amazing. Too bad the evening ended on a sour note. read more

Our food and service were excellent; however, our experience was tainted by the pricing. We selected to dine at the restaurant on a Monday evening, which was clearly marked on their website as Monday Couples Night. Per the website, this night included a feast for two for $126.95, along with dessert. When we arrived, we informed our server we were there for this special, but when the bill arrived, we were charged full price for the meal as well as charged for our side and dessert. We explained this to the server who did take the bill back to be adjusted, but when it came back for the second time, it was only adjusted by $10. We were still charged for our side and dessert... despite what their own website clearly stated. At this price point, this is clearly frustrating to us and most likely will result in us not returning. https://www.brasaousa.com/specials read more

Food was awful! The selection was limited, the service was very disorganized, salad salad bar was absolutely horrible and black options as well, there was no seasoning on any of the meat, and it was very bland, and it's overpriced and it was overpriced for the fact that you barely got any options of food read more

We all had a fantastic dining experience here at Brasao's on a nice Saturday night. The wait staff was very attentive and explained all that you need to do at a Brazilian steakhouse, and that is eat as much delicious meat as you possibly can. On a side note the salad bar was pretty good. Not to mention the cheesy bread and plantains that they have. My favorite cuts of meat were the lamb, some cheese infused ribeye (delicious!), and shrimp. Now there was more meat there but to me those are the stand outs. The dress code is relaxed, but I did see a lot of people dress up for a nice date night out. Yes this is pricey, but you are getting a TON of meat that is seasoned perfectly. Sometimes these Brazilian steak houses over salt their meat. Not Brasao's, which I'm thankful for. If you are in the area you gotta stop by and check this place out. But I do have to remind you to come hungry! Cause if you don't you are doing yourself a disservice! read more

It wasn't too busy on a Sunday night at 5pm but picked up as the night went on. The dining room was kind of dark, with the typical salad bar in the middle. The server greeted us and she was attentive and friendly. She asked if we wanted water and I guess the only option is bottled spring water, which is strange. The salad bar was not stocked with as many options as I'm used to. But it wasn't bad. The sides were brought out when we flipped our card to green. The meats started rotating to our table. The picahna, the ribeye, and the lamb chops were fantastic. Temperature and seasoning were pretty good. One of the biggest issues was getting interrupted constantly. I understand the gauchos coming by with the meat when our card is on green, but they would come by even if it was red and interrupt our conversation. The same with our server. She was very friendly, and I appreciate attentiveness, but there a fine line between being attentive and overbearing. It got a little annoying especially with the refilling of our water glass with the bottled spring water after every sip. It was pretty obvious they were trying to sell more water. The manager came over three times over the span of our dinner to check on us as well. We really were trying to enjoy the experience and the conversation, but were constantly being interrupted. Note to management, maybe train your staff to leave the able alone sometimes, and I don't think tap water is too much to ask for. Otherwise, keep up the good work with the food. read more

We ordered full experience and paid over $200 but unfortunately we have to ASK for lamb chops and fillet mignon. Really disappointed. We were given 1/2 each of fillet mignon and when we ask for more, we waited half an hour . This place wait until you get full with cheap meat. We were there for an hour and notice that they only serve cheap cut meat. They do not walk around with the best part of meat. Fogo de Chao or Chama Gaucha is better. They are not stingy with best type of meat. read more

Excellent Food. Excellent service! The layout and décor is perfect! The best part was the Yelpers joining in for a UYE Thank you Trinh, you out did yourself on this one! This place is easy to find, easy to get to, and PLENTY of parking. Stop by the bar while the rest of your party arrives and order one of their magical cocktails! Grilling is not the only thing this place does well! The salad bar is huge, but I came in with the strategy of minimal veggies, maximum meat. Even my Yelping daughter in law, who normally is not a heavy meat eater, had that strategy! (I was actually fearful of letting my fingers get too close to her plate for fear they would get stabbed and eaten.) Our table was the best in the house, right next to the kitchen! I had the best seat, facing the door the gauchos exit the kitchen with their skewers of meat! I kept my plate full of choice meat! Steaks, shrimp, lamb, pineapple (heh, the magic fruit that helps you digest meat), pork and others. I thought this place had the best beef of any of the many I've dined at. It was always perfectly grilled, full of flavor and juicy! The lamb was tender and moist! The pineapple was grilled long enough to melt in your mouth! Oh, the table side desert drinks is another experience you have to explore. It will impress a date (and the other tables nearby)! Service was over the top! Look up and someone would be there, if not 2 or 3! Price was exceptionally reasonable for all! Make a memorable night and come here with a small group (or large like us). read more

Definitely a great choice for a Brazilian Steak House and love its convenient location. The selection of meats were great with some unique options. The salad bar is not as large as other places but there was a wide variety of options available. Also, salad is the last thing on my mind in a steakhouse ;) Sides of yuca, plaintain, mashed potatoes were great. (Did leave the must try list as a tip on Yelp). They have a full bar with beer, wine, cocktail and liquor options. The Caipirinha was ok-ish, definitely not the real deal. The dessert cocktail preparation is something worth watching and a neat way to end the food coma you get into after dining here. Service was a clear winner. The entire crew was amazing, attentive, pleasant and always served with a smile. Kudos to the entire team! The ambiance of the restaurant is really good. They have a private dining area for larger groups as well. Parking is shared across multiple establishments but there is plenty of spots available. Pricing is on par with any Brazilian Steakhouse but the service at this location makes them a winner. Will I return? : Heck yeah! read more
