• Brazilian Steakhouse • Madison
Booked 9 times today
For those of you who are not current or former gauchos who roam the prairies of Brazil, you might need an explanation of our style of service. At the end on a long day of work tending to cattle and stock, Brazilian cowboys (Gauchos) and their families would prepare great feasts. They would skewer various meats, roast them over a fire pit and bring them to the table for carving. There would be a bounty of seasonal vegetables, stews and salads using fresh ingredients from the fruits of their labor.

    For about 35 years we have visited this restaurant and there have been many changes since it was Jimmy’s . But through the years what has not changed is the quality of food, service and atmosphere.

    We were exploring this venue for a small upcoming wedding dinner, and noticed how loyal the clientele seems to be from the other reviews. The food was outstanding, and the service perfect. We tried all the things on the menu that we thought might be our selections for our private event, and were not disappointed: 8oz filet mignon, seafood trio, feta stuffed chicken and the pasta with lemon cream sauce. I normally don’t order pasta at a fine dining place, but was checking it out for future vegetarian guests. I had shrimp on top, but it could well have been ordered with chicken or without meat altogether. (In fact we liked it better than the feta-stuffed chicken as a potential chicken dish. It was absolutely scrumptious, and definitely came out of a master chef’s kitchen. There was enough of each dish that we each took home leftovers, and I couldn’t wait to eat mine the next day. Still dreaming about whether I could possibly replicate this pasta recipe at home— I’m going to try!!! It was so good! But that’s not to undercut the other dishes whatsoever, which were our favorites, even better compared with food at some other local award-winning restaurants. The farmhouse is charming and looks just like the pictures. There is a disability ramp to the middle floor dining area and enclosed porch. But it you want the third floor, you’ll have to handle some stairs.
