Gauchos are the cowboys of South America – a national symbol of pride and tradition. The residents of Rio Grande do Sul, a Brazilian state, are affectionately referred to as “Gauchos”. This state, renowned for its unique churrasco barbecue, is the birthplace of Chef Edmilson Rodrigues. It is there, in Brazil’s top barbecue houses, that Ede learned and perfected his craft.
Feel transported as ancient Brazilian traditions come alive in our churrascaria –our house of barbecue– and special place that bursts with authentic South American atmosphere and charm.
Enjoy the rich sights and sounds that echo our unique history and dedication to superior taste, while traditionally dressed servers offer an incredible all-you-care-to-enjoy rodizio -round about- selection of perfectly roasted meats. Included in your rodizio experience is an extensive selection of hot dishes and salads that compliment our bbq.
Celebrate any occasion in these perfect settings, located on Macleod Trail in Calgary, AB.

    Went in for my sisters birthday dinner on a Thursday night. It wasn’t too busy and the server made excellent suggestions. We did the all you can eat and the the food tasted fresh and was hot. The sides were so yummy. The deserts were amazing. We will be back.

    First time dining at Gaucho. The food and service are both pretty decent. Chefs came around with meats pretty frequently. The waiter was friendly and helpful as well. My only critique was that it was difficult to understand what some chefs were saying in terms the meat cut and flavor. So it was hard to keep track what meats I tried and didn’t. Overall a pretty decent experience of Brazilian BBQ.

    Food is great!!! We wil definitely come back to visit this restaurant. Our server was super friendly and very knowledgeable with the menus. Recommended some good drinks and it was excellent. Highly recommended this place for any kind of gatherings. We enjoyed a lot, and hopefully every guests who came felt the same experience as what we did. The ambiance was way better than the previous location. Keep up the good work!!!
