   The reception was not as smooth as it can be. My son came in and want to have a table and was told about an hour wait. We waited for over 1.5 hours. He came back and asked where were we. He was told they don’t know because they only placed him in the waiting list but since they are busy, they were never called him. I immediately made a reservation and we were called within 15 min. after reservation made. Why didn’t they tell my son to make reservation instead of put him on the waiting list?

   Asking for well done will get you nowhere. I understand the mindset is medium rare is best and that is the way I like it. However 2 in my party prefer well done and we politely let the waiter know when he asked. Only twice was the meat brought out well done. The person requesting asked then I asked. They came around again and said yes it’s well done and cut a large slice of medium rare sirloin. Other places we’ve been to will remember it has been requested and bring various cuts by frequently. The sides were a bit lackluster. The restaurant did in a pinch as we were already downtown but I don’t think we’d go out of our way to dine again. Our waiter was prompt with drink refills and we did not have to wait or ask him for drinks

   Don’t bother booking a reservation. You’ll still wait an hour. They won’t bring our good meats. They bring chicken and pork and when you ask for any steak they don’t bring it at all. Horrible experience. Find another steakhouse if you’re going to spend the money.

   The waiter took care of larger crowds. The servers serving the proteins missed us several times. The manager was rude when he pointed out the server severing the protein.

   Employees at the check in stand were not very friendly said “hello how are you” and didn’t get an answer back from any of the three employees that were up there. Our server on the other hand was top notch, he gave me and my family exceptional service.

    Went for Christmas lunch like we do every year. This time we barely saw the gauchos and sometimes it even seemed as though they just skipped us completely. Server finally came by and asked if we were done. I replied with “I’m waiting for some steak. He then immediately started clearing our table. What few pieces we did get were cold. Another family member that went today as well had the same experience. Don’t know if it was an isolated incident but can’t ever take the chance of ruining Christmas again. Spent $250 for 5 people, two of which were just eating the salad bar. Food was probably worth $100-$150. Will not be back, going to Chama Gaucha next year on Christmas Eve so Texas De Brazil can’t ruin our holiday meal . I know this sounds like I’m being brutal, but I hope they see this and improve. Don’t like seeing a good place go downhill. Such a shame.
