   Salad bar was subpar. Shrimps were overcooked. Lobster bisque was way too cream. Not enough variety. Tastes similar. But higher quality than most, minus the shrimp n lobster. Meat seasoning was hit or miss. Most meats were too salty. Had to compliment meats with rice or potatoes to counter the overwhelming salt level. Also the servers who took out the meats wouldn’t hit all the tables. Perhaps it’s a specific request, but while out at the tables they should ask other tables if they wanted additional meats.

   First time going to Texas DeBrazil and our waiter Ray was amazing. We came here for our anniversary and wanted to try something fancier than our normal date nights. It was an amazing experience all around. Everyone provided amazing service. Ray explained everything and was so patient with us. He even recommended us a beer similar to the one we wanted and now we love a Brazilian beer lol.

   Had a pleasant dinner with family celebrating two birthdays. Abigail, our server, was VERY kind and courteous explaining the process even though we've been there before. Her detail and explanation of the dessert options was great in helping us decide which desserts to choose.

   We waited as long as 10 minutes between servings. Servers would walk past our table without stopping. Never saw certain cuts of meat although they were offered to adjacent tables.

   I've been to Texas de Brazil multiple times, and unfortunately, this is the third visit in a row where I've left feeling disappointed. I understand that things can get busy, but when you're paying for an all-you-can-eat experience, you expect the food to actually make it to your table. Instead, I found myself waiting with an empty plate for long stretches, having to ask 3-4 times just to get certain meats brought over. This isn’t a one-time issue—it has happened consistently over my last few visits. The servers have always been great, attentive, and professional, but the core experience of a churrascaria is the steady flow of meats, and that just hasn’t been happening. When you spend more time waiting than eating, it takes away from what should be an enjoyable and indulgent meal. I don’t expect perfection, but at this price point, I do expect better. If this were an isolated incident, I wouldn’t think twice about it, but three visits in a row where the food barely comes around? That makes me hesitant to return. I hope this is something that gets addressed because Texas de Brazil has the potential to be great—but as it stands, I can’t say I’m in a hurry to come back.

   The food was good but the servers were passive and dismissive . I understand having a hard day or it being busy I work with adults have intellectual disabilities so I understand. None of them were kind or seemed happy to be at work. Working in an environment like that sometimes you have to fake it until you make it. Everybody seemed on edge and cranky. The bartender was polite she didn’t stare at us like we had five heads and she was approachable. Wasn’t my first time visiting but for this same reason I didn’t come back for years until now and I will not return because nothing has changed except better quality of food and poultry

    Table service was lacking. Plates were not removed when we were finished and started piling up. This was happening at neighboring tables. Salad bar was very good. Pricey though. It was so loud. We will likely not return.
