Disappointed in the service. Although we were asked what other meat did we want, our requests weren't answered. Where was the prime rib? Also chairs were dirty and napkins stained.

The most amazing staff. They were extremely busy due to several Holiday parties, but the staff was incredibly friendly and did everything possible to make everyone happy. Will definitely recommend!

Our dining experience here was fantastic. Great bar service, and great attention from all the Gauchos. All of the meats we tried were well-seasoned and cooked just right. We especially loved the ribeye, fajita flank steak, and the lamb chops. It's always a pleasure to see Alexis and Avery; two of the hardest-working individuals at this restaurant. Demetrius also checked up on us periodically, to ensure our dining experience was going well. It's always a pleasure to dine here, and we will be back again soon.

Staff were great. Angela was top Notch but the food has worsened since last time we were there and the servers rush the service by giving you thick and massive slices which are sometimes un edible. The best one was the flank steak… the rest pretty mediocre, over cooked, poorly cut and rushed. Love this place but customer experience is taking a hit by the above…. Sorry but 3 out of 5 (being generous)

I live a carnivore lifestyle, and all of the different cuts of meat were very good, especially the filet mignon, ribeye, and picanha. Thank you!

We were here for a birthday and our Server, Michael was very accommodating and attentive. We took advantage of the special and it was well worth the price. The food was delicious and we were completely satisfied. The cheesecake was to die for.

I feel sorry for those trying this place for the first time, expecting a high-end, classy dining experience. This place simply doesn't deliver. The meats were tough and flavorless. After a 30-minute wait, I was told my entire bottle of wine was out of stock. While the salad bar was decent, the bread was cold, and the meats were overcooked, gray, and flavorless. The lamb, especially, had an extremely gamey taste. One gaucho came to my table five times, repeatedly offering the same meat I had declined four times. Another gaucho kept calling the 'bottom sirloin' a 'fajita,' a comparison that's simply unacceptable at a high-quality Brazilian steakhouse. To top it off, one gaucho accidentally dropped two pieces of meat on my wife's lap. Having dined at numerous Brazilian steakhouses across the country, I can confidently say this was the worst experience.
