Meat was cooked perfectly. They had a constant supply of every option, including filet mignon, lamb, Ribs, Skirt steak, bacon wrapped filet, skit steak, Parmesan chicken. The salad bar was fully stocked and beautifully presented. The Au Gratin potatoes were fantastic. Over all one of the better meals I have had in a while. I tend to be a pretty harsh critic. I guess the only complaint it took a few minutes to get soda. read more

Texas de Brazil - Brazilian Cheesecake - Brazilian Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

The cuts of meat were all pretty decent quality although some cuts were burnt. A lack of sauces to go with the food served since some cuts were a bit dry as well. Most of the cuts were quite tender. Salad bar and charcuterie were pretty nice and is included in the buffet. The open floor plan seating with all the tables so close to each other gave a cramped vibe for the dining experience. The service was very nice though, our waiter was very polite and helpful. All in all for the price tag of $57 I feel that I could get an equally good experience at even a more common/simple steakhouse like longhorns or Texas Roadhouse for less. Was an interesting first experience at Texas de Brazil. read more

I chose Texas de Brazil for my birthday dinner and left incredibly disappointed. Before my visit, I noticed I never received my birthday reward email for 25% off. When I tried logging into my rewards account, I was told I was no longer a member despite having received rewards emails in the past. I signed up again because new members are also supposed to receive 25% off their first visit, so I assumed one of those promotions would apply. When I arrived, I explained the situation to the host, who assured me it wouldn't be a problem. My reservation was marked as a birthday celebration, and the ticket given to my server also noted both my birthday and rewards membership status. When it came time to pay, no discount had been applied. I explained the situation again and showed proof of my account. The server brought over a manager, who told me that my account was likely deleted when they switched rewards systems a few months ago. Despite acknowledging that the problem was probably caused by their system, he refused to honor either the birthday promotion or the new-member promotion. His response was essentially, "Maybe next visit if it's still not working." There won't be a next visit. What made the situation even worse was that this was supposed to be my birthday dinner. Nobody acknowledged my birthday, despite it being noted on the reservation and ticket. It felt like nobody cared. The service throughout the meal was also disappointing. We repeatedly had to request specific meats because servers kept coming around with the same few options, mostly chicken and flank steak. For a restaurant that charges premium prices and advertises a wide variety of meats, that experience fell far short of expectations. I left feeling frustrated, dismissed, and honestly heartbroken. A birthday dinner should be a special experience, not one that ends with a customer feeling ignored and upset. Between the rewards issue, the manager's unwillingness to make things right, and the poor service, this was one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences I've had. I've been here before and had a wonderful experience, which is exactly why I chose Texas de Brazil for my birthday. Unfortunately, this visit was so different from my previous one that it was hard to believe I was at the same restaurant. read more

We dined here last Saturday 08/22 as a date night. We sat at the bar while waiting for our reservation to be filled. The bartender was loudly complaining and arguing with other staff the entire time. She took forever to even acknowledge us, and just as long to get our drinks. Once we were moved to our table our server was barely present. He took about 20 minutes to greet us. Another 20 minutes to grab our first drink. Then we didn't see him again for 30 minutes. I practically had to beg to get our check so we could leave. This was by far my WORST experience ever at this location. Very dissatisfied! read more

Food was amazing (which is why I don't have pictures for it lol) desert was amazing as well, would recommend the chocolate mousse cake

Going downhill in food quality. They come to your table when you first get there with all the meats and then never come back even though you have a green light on getting meat. It took forever. The meats were not very tender at all, except for the picanha. The fillet was always overcooked and not very good. It also seems like they're not seasoning their meats with very much salt these days. read more

I have been here a few times before. I came with my family and there were 5 of us. I enjoy the food but this time around the service was terrible. I spent most of the night with an empty water. It took her awhile to even come to the table, I started to wonder if she even knew we were there. We ran out of bread and mashed potatoes and was never asked for more. Then the people cutting the meat, there were a few times where there were none in the dining room at all and we all had empty plates. It took forever for my wine to come. Overall the food was tasty, but the service really was off and made the night less than great. read more

How awesome! We came for Valentines Day, I was a bit worried about attention with so many people being there but we were sat very quickly and had tons of food! The interior is beautiful, this is a must come see!! You start off at the salad bar, beans and pastas, lettuce and kale, TONS of options lots of pickled foods too. Then they walk around with flank steak, sirloin, ribeye, garlic chicken, pork, filet, tons of meat options. I saw a lot of reviews that said they don't check those green and red cards to see if you want more food or not which is true, but it is really not a big deal. Great time! We will be back. read more

I would like to start by saying that I try my best to never leave bad reviews. I've been a service worker before so I am very understanding of many situations and circumstances. But this was possibly the worst dining experience I've ever had. The food was delicious, it was everything else that went wrong. When we first arrived we noticed there was no AC in the building. Not the end of the world, a little uncomfortable but not unbearable. There were fans and AC units running inside to help so there was nothing more they could do. It started going downhill when it took almost 30 minutes just to get water to our table. It took our server over 20 minutes to even get to our table after sitting down. It took 45 minutes minimum both times we ordered drinks from the bar (rum and coke and a white wine) and I got the wrong wine BOTH times. The second time it was warm so I could tell it had been sitting out for a while. We still tried to be understanding, but dessert was the final straw. It took a while for them to bring the tray around, ask what we wanted, and then get it out to us. When we finally got it, they only brought out one dessert. Apparently the second one we ordered had sold out and they let us order it anyway without telling us and never asked what we wanted as a replacement. All in all our bill was over $250 and we spent more than two hours there for a pretty bad experience overall. I think it's also insane to charge $8 a bottle for still water for the table. This was our first and last time ever going to a Texas de Brazil. Not a very great way to spend a wedding anniversary. read more

I would like to start by saying I NEVER post reviews but this experience was so BAD if felt I had to. We were there for my son's birthday which made it even worse because you want them to have a great dinner. We got offered meat about 5 times in the hour that we were there, which is crazy. For 60 dollars a person I expect them to do better. We asked for a drink menu and our server never came back to take our drink order. Do yourself a favor and just throw your money away before going and wasting it at this place! Also, the only reason it got 1 star is because you can't select 0. read more

I love the food at Texas de Brazil. I first went to the location in Norfolk, VA and was hooked. The thing that doesn't sit right with me is you are not allowed to take the left over side dishes they bring out. For as much as I paid today for 1 person to dine, taking left over sides (that were my first serving) that are just going in the trash should be a moot point. I feel it is a huge waste of food! I get not taking meat leftover because then people would just fill their plates and leave. But I ate by myself, and had a large portion of mashed potatoes, French fries, and some banana left which all went in the trash! When I could've taken them home and ate them later. I feel this is a huge waste of agricultural resources. But I also understand the slippery slope. It's just frustrating to see such waste. read more

Best chicken I've had. Hard time understanding what they are saying when they bring it out, but I like it. Have since the first time i went.

The food was terrific and the entire staff was courteous and accommodating. Wait was two hours on a Saturday night for two. This could have been diminished if dirty tables were cleaned quicker. We saw tables sitting ten minutes. It happens, not a huge foul. The ambiance is the let down. Awfully bright in some places while lights out in other spots. Floors were greasy in spots. Some staff were disheveled and lacked pride in their appearance. Bathrooms were pretty gross, men's and women's. Two stalls out of toilet paper in the lady's. Someone puked in the men's. Several guests in tshirts, jeans, hats. I just think I would choose a traditional steakhouse if we intended to pay those type of menu prices in the future. read more

The food was as expected on what you get from a Brazilians style buffet, severs walking around with skewers of different kinds of meat, accompanied by salad bar that is self serve, the quality was overall fair. The service was really good, our first time going there was a bit of a wait, but it has improved very much since then, we've now gone 4 times and the service has be exemplary, as expected the wait could be around 20 minutes to 30 Max The ambience is very laid-back and relaxed. However, the seating is a little awkward, along with table plate placement, otherwise it was enjoyable. read more

I've been to this chain in Orlando and Tampa, and both were head and shoulders better than my experience here. Our server was very attentive, but the gauchos were nearly non-existent. Our entire half of the restaurant was devoid of gauchos for nearly half of our 2 hour meal. The worst past was the butchering of the meat, TONS of tendon/silver skin in all the cuts. The salad bar was on par with my other experiences in Florida. Overall, for the price, I wouldn't return just for the salad bar. read more

I'd say this restaurant is an experience, a privilege even. It's more than worth the money, if you're looking for something new, check out Texas de Brazil! I went here with my family for a late Christmas gift, and I can whole heartedly say, I'm more than satisfied with the whole experience! Their steak cuts are fantastic, their pork has great crispy edges, their lamb has a unique flavor, and their chicken is extremely flavorful! Their desserts are beautifully crafted and decorated too! Their salad bar is more than amazing, it comes with so many options to craft the perfect appetizer dish! Their waiters are extremely friendly as well. Lourdes, our server for this afternoon, was always looking out for us and helped us enjoy this meal! The workers bringing out the food were quite fast and ensured everyone at our table and surrounding tables had full plates! The decor of the restaurant was fantastic as well! A bar stocked with a variety of bourbon, whiskey, vodka, gin, tequila, and grand marnier bottles. There's a grand wall of exquisite wines and campaigns at the back of the restaurant, just behind the salad bar. Lastly, a flower display bigger than a whole person stands tall over everyone right on top of the salad bar. My review can't begin to describe how fantastic this place looks and feels! TLDR; This place is a 10/10, the food tasted delicious, the service was great, and the decor makes you feel like you're in a paradise! read more

They get two stars only for the food. THE SERVICE SUCKS!! Texas de Brazil is my favorite Brazilian steakhouse and I always enjoy going there. This is my first time at this location and it will be my last. I took my family there to celebrate my son's birthday. It was a Saturday night and the place was packed - which is understandable but in my opinion the place is very small for so many tables. Anyway we were seated and waited and waited and waited for a server. Finally a gentlemen in a suit, who was not a server but a manager came over to take our drink orders. My daughter and I explained to him that we were celebrating my son's birthday and we wanted some kind of cake for him after our meal. He explained that they don't do singing or anything like that so my daughter asked him if they have candles - his response was yes we do and we'll put one on for you. We said ok. Once again we waited and waited and waited for our server so much so that I finally started asking the young lady who was working the two tables behind us to help us. We finally got plates and the little cards that indicate we were ready for the meat. The meat servers come around - they stop at the table on my left, they stop to the tables on my right and behind us. I watched them several times look over at us and walk away like they didn't see us. I looked on the table to make sure all the cards were on green (which they were). Finally the same server must have saw my face and asked me if I needed anything. I told her that the servers were not coming to us and she went to get a few of them to stop by. Halfway through our meal they FINALLY sent a waiter to our table. Now one of our favorite meats in the restaurant are their lamb chops but we didn't see any meat servers with them. We asked our waiter if they have them at this location - his response was yes we do. Do you want 4 or 8? We said 8 he told us he'll have someone bring them out. The chops came out and we finished our meal. They cleared our plates and the waiter slaps the bill on the table. Now a couple of things about this: 1 - He didn't bring the cake we requested, nor did he even ask us if we wanted dessert. We were there with 3 kids so I'm not sure why he didn't ask about dessert. 2 - There was an additional charge for the lamb chops - which he never stated that. When I asked him about both - his response was oh you wanted dessert?? I told him - did you ask us if we wanted dessert?? No response. When I questioned him about the lamb chops he said oh yeah we charge extra for them - they don't charge in NY and Detroit. So I said to him - but you never told us there was a charge - don't you think you should have?? His response was oh ok. So naturally I asked for the manager - the same manager (I believe his name is Brett) came over and when we explained about our lack of service, extra charged for the lamb chops and no dessert- his response was "I told you we don't do singing for birthdays", which is NOT what we were asking for. He merely apologized and walked away. In my opinion, especially since we had small children, he could have sent over a complimentary slice of cake as a way of apologizing but he didn't. I don't think I have EVER not tipped after a meal but I did it this time. No one deserved a tip and we all left VERY disappointed. While I will go back to the location in NY, I DEFINITELY won't be back to the Columbus location. read more

It was super busy and it felt very cramped. Food 3.5-4/5. Service was 2/5, our table was often ignored and took the server over 15 min to refill drinks, no clearing of any dirty or empty plates and the server rarely checked on us. Bathroom cleanliness 2/5. I came several years ago and enjoyed the experience but don't think we will be going back, service is not nearly the same. read more

Couldn't quite put my finger on it, but this location is not up to par. From the moment we walked in until we left, we encountered issues. We had to wait 45 minutes after our reservation time to get seated. It took our server a long time to greet us and bring us our check once we were finished. The hot side dishes at the salad bar were all empty. The gauchos stopped at our table immediately, even though we had the red side displayed on the button. The usually amazing and soft little rolls with the cheese they bring to your table were hard. So like I said......something was just off and definitely not worth $147 before tip (and we didn't drink alcohol). read more

Our experience here was fantastic, and we will definitely be returning! The salad bar was exceptionally fresh and impeccably clean. One suggestion I have is to clearly label the gluten-free and dairy-free options, as some items were a bit unclear. However, everything I tried was delicious. The selection of meats, from filet mignon to flank steak, Parmesan-crusted pork loin, and sausage, was outstanding--we truly felt like royalty. With the constant flow of skewers being served at our table, it was an experience fit for a king and queen. The entire establishment was very clean, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Considering the quality of the food, the price was very reasonable. I have nothing but positive things to say about our experience! read more

Texas de Brazil - Brazilian Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

The entire restaurant smelled like sewerage, which was unpleasant . I'm not sure if it always smells like that, but they really need to fix it. As for the food: The salad bar was bad. Nothing had flavor, and it was disappointing. the meat cuts were okay, not the best I've ever had, but not the worst either. The mashed potatoes were good, and you also get French fries and plantains which were bad, they are just full of sugar. The way it works is you have a little sticker on your table to signal when you want to be served meat cuts (since you can also choose the salad bar only option). Their cocktails were also bad. On the positive side, the guys serving the meat cuts were very friendly. Overall, I will not be coming back and I do not recommend this place to anyone. read more

Genesis provided outstanding service for our birthday celebration tonight!! She made sure we had the selections we were looking for and the food was fabulous. read more

Decided to take my sister here for her birthday dinner. It was our first time. I've been to many Brazilian churrasceria and I can say this place is mediocre. They have all the basic stuff, but the meat service was lacking. What made our whole experience though was how attentive our server was. They sat us in the corner behind all the other tables, making it hard to serve us the meats. However our server made sure to direct them towards us. Most of the meats served were cooked rare. Even though they asked how we liked our meat cooked, most of the meat that came out where very much rare. The mashed potatoes and plantains were delicious though! Would I come back? Maybe. Was it worth the price? Probably not, but hey they're premium cut meats. They just need to tweak a few things. Also I appreciate the hero discount! read more

Texas de Brazil - Look how rare that meat is. - Brazilian Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I'm sorry I don't have more photos to share I just did not focus on that this round. We usually go to Rodizio Grill (also located in Columbus). This was our first visit to Texas de Brazil. I have to tell you--the service is about the same but the ambiance and the food was so much better than our usual that I think we've decided to change our spot! Cost is about the same however, Rodizio won't charge you additionally for asking for certain items (like fish). Drinks and desserts are separate and cost extra. The salad bar is included and Texas de Brazils salad bar was beautiful, fully stocked and had lots of high quality extras. I got several cheeses, smoked salmon and some "jalapeño bisque" (which I fully believe was a lobster bisque) was very good. The cheeses were perfect to snack on between my meat bites. They came around plenty and offered; beef steaks, chickens, lambs and sausages. My husbands favorite was the lamb and the bacon wrapped chicken. We also really enjoyed the garlic chicken. My favorite was the top sirloin--so tender, juicy and perfectly salted. The only reason it missed the 5 stars--the bathrooms. We both agreed the bathrooms were another world. Smelly, everything was wet, dirty and the toilet paper was not stocked/on the holders. It was gross. We will absolutely be returning...FOR THE FOOD and service. We just know to run and go pee else where lol read more

Great food, great service and wo wonderful setting for all types of people. The food is worth the money and wait.

We arrived at 8 o'clock on a Friday night celebrate my son's birthday dinner. We appreciate that he was half off for 12 and under and they gave him a complementary dessert for his birthday. The place was quite full and loud. But they were able to see us fairly quickly, even without a reservation. Our waiter was very friendly and explained the process. We went to the cold bar and made plates. Beautiful and lots of variety. Wish there were names for each item. Then the carvers stated coming and coming. I wanted to try a little of everything but then wasn't able to finish it all. I understand why but was disappointed when told you couldn't take your leftovers. It felt so wasteful. The food was tasty. Most of the meat was tender and juicy. Overall very good experience. Just not quite five star. read more

Get ready to be full! T'was a busy Saturday but we had a reservation and was seated promptly. We headed to the salad bar first then the rounds of different meat started coming as we sat down. Flank, rib roast, filet mignon, chicken garlic, sausage etc it was a lot of meat! The meats were well seasoned however most of the meats were well done. Some tend to be gummy. It was a decent experience, our server was really attentive and made sure we got the meats we wanted. The salad bar was filling. We capped it off with chocolate cake which was moist and good but the crème brûlée was just okay, it wasn't creamy and consistency of like a jello. Overall, not a bad experience we'll probably be back. read more

I have no words for this experience. We booked a private event, with a private room. When we arrived we found our private room was partially filled with other guest. Christina Gullet made us feel as if we didn't matter, our contract didn't matter, no empathy or compassion better yet no solution. Christina Gullet the said well you can contact cooperate and had a written piece of paper with it on. There was 18 guest total for a business seminar with guest speakers from out of town.Total total disregard for our agreement and lack of humility. Christine Johnson unhappy to say the least.

The food was great but the service terrible. Our server was a tall guy with an earring, dark hair and eyes. He gave bad vibes from the beginning. We were confused about how the pricing works as we previously went to fogo de chao and the salad bar was charged separately there. So when we asked our server whether meat+salad bar was priced together and how much, he asked if we still want to be here after telling us the price A little too soon so it came off condescending. Then he proceeded to offer us spring water but he phrased it in a way that implied it's included into the bill. Both me and my partner said yes no ice please. At some point he brought two glasses filled and one more unopened bottle. At the end of dinner, we were charged 16$ for 2 bottles. First of all, you need to be transparent whether water is included or not into the price. Second, if you charge us for two bottles, where did the first one go? He poured some water into the glasses but the bottle couldn't have been empty. So where did it go? Finally, the second bottle remained unopened and we asked it to be removed from the bill -- which the server told us he needs to ask the manager first. WTF?! Overall, the experience was ruined by his attempts to scam??? us. read more

Texas de Brazil is an experience like none other. If you love large quantities of perfectly grilled meats, this place is for you. I took my significant other out for a fancy night out. Upon arriving, the interior is very nice and clean. There is a small outside, large main and upper area for dinning. When you are seated, you can go to the cold/ salad bar. Here you find a bunch of salad options, charcuterie meats and cheeses, as well as a few hot options. You are then given a token that you flip green when you want the gauchos to bring you meat and red when you are done. The meats are a ton of different beef, chicken and lamb cuts that are shaved at your table, on demand. They are well seasoned and you can get them in whatever temp/doneness you desire. You are also given a cheesy bread, amazing mashed potatoes and fried plantains to accompany the meal. Afterwards, if you have room, there are a bunch of great desserts to choose from. The carrot cake was awesome. The service was top notch and I look forward to going again when we are looking to have a fancier date as it is a bit pricier than most. But, well worth the cost. read more

Great salad bar but almost all of the meat was overcooked. Although the server claimed all of the meats would be served medium rare (other than chicken/sausage), there was really only a flank steak served at that temperature. Service was acceptable but not what would be expected for a $50/person minimum tab. Tables are tightly packed and there isn't much room to navigate to/from the salad bar with the congestion of the servers and gauchos. read more

When we arrived at 8 pm on a Saturday we were asked if we had a reservation. We did not. I then checked their website and was able to make a reservation online for 8:15. While we waited in the lobby, they turned away another couple without a reservation. I shared with the couple about online reservations and they did the same. Once seated we enjoyed the food and drinks a lot. The service was excellent too. Be sure to arrive hungry! read more

Reservation made for 4 last night. Seating was prompt. Our waiter was attentive. I live out of state but my kids enjoy this as a treat for special occasions. Salad bar used to be better included premixed quality salads. Seated in a corner we were overlooked by some meat servers. Meat selection is tired and boring and mostly warm by the time they made it to our table. Mixed drinks ordered including mojitos were waste of money. At $350 for four people I would go to a better full service restaurant. read more

We love(d) this place for birthdays and special occasions; however, last time my husband and son saw one of the men (gaucho who carries skewers) not wash his hands after using the restroom. We haven't been back since bc you can't unsee. Also hard to find parking. While lobster bisque is incredible as well as spicy picanha steak is unmatched elsewhere, we tried fogo de chao instead. read more

As someone who has been to the original Texas De Brazil in Dallas (Addison) at its inception that same year and has been to the Easton location numerous times, unfortunately the overall experience was lacking and for the premium price $150 for 2 it was not worth the money. Not sure what point of "green/red" flip card if the skewers would just stop coming in rotation on our table at some point and they can be visibly seen making a U turn and not stopping by us. The lamb chops was an extra charge and that was not disclosed at the time I made the request, until I saw it on the bill. Fogo de Chao for instance includes the lamb chops and it's almost the same price. They are also thicker and juicier there. The ones I had here were thin, dry and small, barely any meat. The other meats offerings were few visits to our table. Funny part, one gentleman kept insisting to drop by with a type of pork meat where I told him from get go our table isn't interested in at all, whereas the one we would've liked more of or mentioned like Picanha, flank steak, stopped coming. The staff were nice and we had a nice waiter/server. Salad bar was nice except I think they need to have some fresh fruit options. For a premium Dinner price, we expected better, especially compared to Rodizio and the upcoming Fogo De Chao. Not sure what happened here. I think quality and overall courtesy took a hit. I know it was a lot better in the past. It is what it is. Also we asked for medium to medium well but got rare - medium rare. Some cuts were not edible. read more

As a Brazilian, I can say this place is FAR from being Brazilian. I went there last night with a customer and it was a huge disappointment. The service was very slow, sides were cold and the caipirinhas were not even made using real cachaca (if it was I couldn't tell). The caipirinhas were more like a juice with excessive amounts of sugar. The beef was okay but they have cuts with BBQ sauce (we do not do that in Brazil at all) and they don't carry chicken hearts, ribeye and neither beef ribs. For the price, this is a huge ripoff. If you want a true Brazilian experience go to Brazilian Grill and Bakery on Cleveland Ave. read more

We came here for a birthday celebration the 3 of us! It wasn't so crowded (best time to come) The waitress we had was amazing I can't remember her name but we were there at 6:30 on Sunday 1/21. The service was remarkable. Sometimes they can be so busy that they forget our Brazilian bread or bananas to clean your palette or our garlic mash. But today it was on point!! If you are a fan of a great salad bar with fresh bacon you came to the right place. The lobster bisque is to die for!! So delicious!! The men that were carving the meats were great!! The quality of the meat was OUTSTANDING!! The meat was cooked perfectly for my taste!! Will definitely recommend and be back very very soon!! Thank you for the amazing experience for one of our guests but the rest of us a night to remember!! read more
