We had our first experience here this weekend for Valentine's Day. It was so insane, we were packed in there like sardines... But they came out with complimentary pink drinks for everyone waiting to be seated as well as hot and fresh pao de queijo! We have bad backs and were so grateful when the hostess noticed and sat us a bit quicker. Now the food... Phenomenal!!! I've never had steak almost melt in my mouth. The buffet options are just enough to compliment the churrasco experience. You'll def leave full, happy, and eager to come back!!!! read more

Wow, this place is unbelievable! Honestly, the best meal I've probably had in years. I told my husband that I was leaving him for the pork belly and he understood. Let's talk about the pork belly. It was the most amazing meat I've ever tasted in my life! It was full of flavor, tasty and juicy. Seasoned perfectly. It was like a party in my mouth. It was the first time in any time of Brazilian/Korean steakhouse I've ever gotten seconds of a particular meat. I also tried the sausage which was very tasty (but I obviously needed to save room for the pork belly). My husband on the other hand tried all the meats and loved them all. They were all well prepared and full of flavor, but his favorite was the garlic steak. They also had these delicious fried cheese squares with honey that were savory with a touch of sweetness. Even the salad bar was amazing. The service was absolutely perfect. All our servers were friendly and attentive. We had everything we needed almost instantaneously it seemed. I also loved that you could flip a little place card on your table when you wanted more meat and when you didn't. My husband eats much more meat than I do so it was nice for them to be able to bring him meat without my feeling obligated to get more as well. We had an excellent dinner and will be back very soon! read more

Second time back at this new Brazilian steakhouse. This time with Kathy. On a cool Friday night it was a great venue. The drinks cosmopolitans and comprihananas were made tasting perfectly. The salad bar was exceptional with every choice you could think of. Asparagus that were the biggest I've seen with great flavoring. Little iceberg wedge salads were delightful. Peppers hot and sweet , cheeses meats, huge beets which were very sweet. I could go on and on. Then we come to the meats. They have all different varieties to make everyone happy. Including baby lamb chops. The service was impeccable as they were attentive and friendly. The manager came around to make sure everything was done well. with a wonderful personality A great restaurant for Stamford. We will surely be back. read more

While visiting the mall in Stamford, Connecticut, I came across Terra Gaucha and decided to spontaneously order takeout. Wow! The salmon was absolute perfection and came with a sweet mango sauce. The Cesar salad was excellent, as was the sautéed broccoli. And just when I thought it couldn't get better - the cheesecake was not only picture-perfect - but also divine. A memorable food stop on my vacay! read more

Amazing staff and service! Everything was delicious, drinks were well done and strong. Two of my favorite waiters was Jonas due to his personality that really shined through, and Josh was very attentive and helpful. The manager was friendly and personable. Let's get to the food our favorite dish was the bacon wrapped chicken, and the shrimp which was moist and tender. The salmon was also amazing, everything was good! The veggie bar was unmatched everything was top notch! I'll be back .. read more

Superb. So so much better than the Texas chain brazilian steakhouse in Yonkers. Soo soo much better quality meats, better quality salad bar, and so much more attentive servers. And the atmosphere inside was so much more upscale feeling and yet the pricing was the same as the Yonkers Texas place. In fact, the pricing when considering the salad bar is competitive with the upper end steakhouses in this region. Really worth a visit for that special occasion or when you're visiting the Stamford Mall. Loved it. Will come back. read more

Too full to eat dessert Awesome all around experience. This place opened up where Cheesecake Factory once stood. It's all completely new decor with full bar and extensive wine list. The service is super friendly and managers come to your table to check in and make sure you've devoured all the meat choices, which include various cuts of beef, pork, chicken, lamb chops, shrimp and grilled pineapple. The beef is available at different temperatures; medium rare, medium and well. Try not to overdo the salad bar. You'll be too full for anything else. Enjoyed every bit of our experience and highly recommend for just a couples experience or large groups. They have private spaces for large groups. Will surely be back for the dessert. read more

Great food and service was very good I would go back again. But, you should be a meat lover read more

Terra Gaucha is a great addition to the area. Came here with a large group on a Tuesday evening and we were treated so well. I'm not much of a meat eater normally but it all looked and smelled so delicious that I couldn't help but try a little bit if everything. There really is something for everyone here (yes, even for vegetarians at the salad bar but the options are obviously a bit smaller). As soon as you sit down and flip your token over to the green side, you will be flooded with meats from every direction. My favorite was the bacon-wrapped filet mignon (yes, you read that correctly). Their drinks are also delicious, I had a blueberry mojito but if you're feeling a little more traditional, they have plenty of wines to choose from. read more

The entire experience here was amazing! I would recommend it for lunch or dinner. Great for families, kind, friendly and accommodating service. Staff explained the experience and made you feel welcome. Didn't take any food photos but there want anything we didn't try or like. read more

The food is delicious, the ambiance is romantic but family-friendly which is perfect for us, and the service goes above and beyond. Anesti was our server, and I accidentally left my phone home so he let me use the house phone to call my wife and even took a pic of me and my daughter and texted it to me so we could capture the moment when she was given a big old ice-cream for her birthday. read more

Everything was amazing!!! Service was awesome . Went on a Wednesday afternoon. Went all out wanted to try everything my stomach wouldn't let me. We spent 450.00 went with are two kiddos. 100.00 of that was double tequila shots for me and the Mrs. And a 70 dollar tip because it was worth it. Next time won't bring the kiddos they didn't eat there fair share lmao. read more

10/10. Might be the best restaurant + experience I have EVER been to. And I am almost 30 years old. Service was impeccable. They each care as if it was their own place and you are their guests. Food was 10/10, not a single bland item came to the table. Lighting was good, comfortable, great. I would drive 2.5 hrs to come here again, to enjoy that. read more

Great place and worth the price. All the meat was delicious and the buffet was great too!

First time going to Terra Gaucha and I was very impressed. My family and I really like Brazilian steakhouses and have been to several in Westchester, Rockland and NYC. Terra Gaucha was a great experience. Meats were flavorful and sides kept coming. Going with three teen boys I usually have to ask to keep the sides coming and then have to wait for them to be made. Not here, they kept an eye on the table and had new sides once they saw we were low. The waiter was also very attentive. While I liked the salad bar, they didn't have as much variety as other places we've been but still was good. Lastly, the restaurant itself was very nice looking. Can't wait to return! read more

BEST RESTAURANT IN TAMPA BAY AREA !! Ever since the opening of this restaurant I have been a huge fan of it. Every time we decide to go, it does not disappoint. The meat comes the way you ask. I personally like it well done & it's rough finding a restaurant that actually does it well done without it being burnt / dry or having pink. The buffet options are great. The staff there are amazing, the food is great, the service is AMAZING. Honestly , it's the best !! I would recommend it 10/10 to everyone. read more

The service here is great. Nice ambiance. I love the smooth Brazilian music softly playing in the background. It adds a nice touch to the overall dining experience. The food is delicious. This was the first time I had ever eaten beef Stroganoff with steamed rice instead of noodles. Now I prefer it this way! However I just really wish that some of the food at the buffet was warm. It's very awkward to eat grilled veggies that are nearly ICE COLD. The $20 per person cost for the buffet is a little steep. Otherwise we'd go more often. If you haven't been here yet, you should definitely give it a try; even if you are not familiar with Brazilian cuisine. I wasn't either at first. read more

Eight of us went to Terra Gaucha for first time yesterday and it was truly amazing. The staff, from the hostess to the staff in the dining room was so welcoming, professional and accommodating. The service was outstanding. I have Celiac so needed safe gluten-free choices and they went out of their way to check on foods served and were very knowledgeable about food allergies. The restaurant was very clean and open and just a great experience. The meats were so delicious and tender and the salad, appetizer bar was exceptional. Everything fresh and attention to detail was apparent. They show such pride in every aspect of the experience. We will be going back!!! read more

I love Terra gaucha. It's my favorite restaurant. I highly recommend coming here. It's great read more

This review is a combination of 2 visits. Went twice. Saturday night and Friday afternoon. 3 stars for going on a Saturday night. I'll never go at night again. Reservations both times. Saturday night was packed. Waited over 30 minutes to be seated. Will never go at night again. Service was great. Just too crowded. Couldn't hear yourself talk. Salad bar was packed. Still a bit Covid paranoid. Friday lunch was 5 Stars. Very few people there. Was able to enjoy the ambiance, salad bar, and meat service. Totally different feel than going on a Saturday evening. I still won't ever get used to a $9 glass of beer, but aside from that, lunch was a very pleasurable experience. read more

Yet again, an outrageously delicious dinner was served last night at TG. It's probably my sixth or seventh time having dinner here with a family member, and it never disappoints. The salad bar is beautifully presented with the freshest vegetables and tastiest of dressings (and any review that says otherwise is hooey). Then there's the stars of the dinner - the meat offerings. It doesn't get better than what is served tableside. It is wonderfully seasoned and cooked to perfection, and it just keeps coming until you say no more. Finally, the servers are fun, professional and happy. It's so great to go to dinner when everything runs smoothly without any stuffiness or angst, which is a shoutout to good management. This is the number 1 place in Stamford to have dinner if you want a long meal of food and drink with family and friends who enjoy going out to dinner together. read more

Opened this year in Downtown Stamford. Food was very good - as with a Brazilian steakhouse - a lot of meat! Great choices of chicken, pork, steak, shrimp. The salad bar has a ton of good, fresh options as well. Not in the mood for meat? You can chose to only eat from the salad bar. Great addition to downtown Stamford! read more

Great food,great staff,great ambiance!!! Highly recommend for birthdays,holidays or just even a dinner date night with your partner or friends! Definitely worth checking it out and also go in there hungry because you will be served lots of meat read more

10/10 out of TEN! The service was nonstop. Absolutely amazing. I love that they gave you premium quality cuts of meat nonstop all of the time the service was so quick and hospitable. I couldn't tell you when my meals started and when it ended! The place was also so clean the Buffet had no splatters you could tell they just kept going around and exchanging each and every single dishes soon as it looked like it was picked on a little too much. All of utensils are clean and available and sharp. Extremely good service I believe one of our Gauchos name was Jefrey and he was so kind so upbeat really made this experience one to not forget! I can't wait to tell my corporate office about this place so that we can host our next gathering here! The drinks were very creative and good as well! read more

Dear Rodolfo, my family and I are very thankful for the effort in finding a solution with the gift card. We really appreciate it and will be returning to enjoy the fine food that you serve at the Stamford, CT restaurant. Thanks again. read more

We came here for our friends birthday party. We had a group of 30 and Camilla was an excellent hostess. Highly recommend this especially when she's here. read more

Great overall experience. Service was impeccable & the food was awesome. We celebrated my husbands birthday and we all had a wonderful time!

So LRoth and I both had a few days off together. We figured we'd try this place out for lunch. So you can tell it used to be a cheesecake factory. The decor was nice though. A little too much light for a steak house though in my opinion. So it's a standard Brazilian steakhouse. Great selection of salad, fruits/veggies, charcuterie. The meat was of good quality. They had a garlic steak that was my fave since it was so juicy and very strong garlic taste. read more

Excellent food and service! The salad bar had delicious choices such as all types of salads, cold cuts, fruit, you name it! Everyone that works there was very friendly and smiling! The staff always asking if there is anything we need or if we are happy. The meat was delicious. The lamb especially, chefs kiss! FThey had chimichurri sauce at the salad bar that I used and it was perfect! I had the fig old fashioned and it was tasty! The pineapple that they serve is so so so so good! I think they bake the pineapples in caramel. I'll definitely be back for sure!! read more

We had dinner this evening at Terra Gaucha.....food was incredible and the service from Jose and Maria and all the gauchos was amazing! Salad bar was great and all the different meats were off the charts! A lot to eat but a most enjoyable evening....well worth a visit! $62 per head sounds like a lot but for starters, unlimited amounts of every sort of meat and various sweets - try the pineapple in syrup and sweet plantain! We loved it! read more

I recommend trying Terra .. there was no wait time, we got there for our reservation and was seated right away. It was the birthday man first time at a Brazilian steakhouse, he enjoyed it. The food was good and so was the service. If you haven't been to a Brazilian steakhouse before, start here. Many choices of different meats, ambiance was good as well. The drinks we definitely enjoyed. I was also able to change up my drink a bit than the choice on the menu. Wanted the watermelon jalapeño margarita but no jalapeño tequila in it, had no issues getting that. I've been to other restaurants that wouldn't make substitutions. A few more options of sides would be nice that's only thing I'd want to add. read more

Their service was fantastic but they need to loose the ten pounds of salt they overuse on their meat!

Bought a $100 gift card as a Christmas present for a friend of mine. when she went to the restaurant for dinner and tried to pay for her check she was told that the card had been used already. Terra Gaucha can't help her anymore on this matter. I will be contacting my bank for help. First time ever I have experienced and embarrasment at a restaurant. Not a happy customer. read more

I'm a big fogo de chao fan. My thing is I skip the meat and go for the salad bar. The salad bar is a gem. My faves are the chicken salad, potato salad, the cheese bread, ice berg wedges, manchego and fruit paste, pear walnut salad. I know the meat is awesome too but just hitting the salad bar helps me leave totally full but not feeling sick from overeating. read more

I just took my 2 year old to Terra Gaucha in Stamford and had a fab experience. It was spacious and the salad bar had a big choice of options. Plus the meat was super yummy. Kids under 5 eat free, which was key for me because my daughter is super picky. There is a great lemonade what is to die for! The whole lunchtime experience was great. read more

Amazing Food ! The staff was beyond attentive. Try the caipirinha, it was delicious. We were seated 15 minutes after our reservation but they were super busy and it was worth the wait. Recommend it ! read more

Absolutely blown away with this steakhouse. My first time visiting with my parents and we were super impressed with the quality of the food and attentive staff. The salad bar consists of fresh salads, fruit, vegetables, cheese selection and more. The meats are also fresh, well seasoned, and cooked to perfection, offering a variety of steaks, chicken, lamb, and shrimp. 10/10 recommend anyone to stop by for an immersive Brazilian Steakhouse experience. Loved everything about it. Kudos to the staff for the efficiency, attention to detail, and positive vibes in making customers feel at home. read more

Terra Gaucha - Salad bar - Steakhouses Near Me - Stamford, Connecticut

Excellent restaurant! We have been there twice since opening and each time have had superb experiences. Food is very good. Staff is very courteous and attentive. Although it is a steak house, the salad bar has many, fresh, tasty options. Both times we had let the staff select a wine and each time they selected a nice wine. I especially enjoy the meat selections that the gauchos bring to your table; ask about "The Radizio". Definitely worth a visit. read more
