brazeiros churrascaria - brazilian steakhouse

rushed, cafeteria-like experience, can i please order a drink?. having dined at several brazilian steakhouses in other cities, i was looking forward to a relaxing, mind-boggling protein bacchanalia with lots of wine. while the salad bar was delicious, i was quickly disappointed by the waiter who lacked any knowledge of the wine menu and wanted to rush us through our dinner. the entire point of this experience is to eat, drink, and relax over a few hours. this was not worth the money spent, and i will not be returning. it felt cheap and focused on turning over tables instead of guiding patrons through a wonderful evening.

great food, great service!. really enjoyed this restaurant. the only negative thing i could say is someone decided to make a cheesy restroom sign out of sticky foil letters and draw an arrow on cardboard paper. makes no sense why you would spend much money on decor and do something like this. that aside, great team service and the food is very good. as everyone knows it will set you back at least a benjamin, per couple, to eat here.

great food and excellent service!. this is my second experience at a brazilian steakhouse and i'm glad they brought one to louisville! the food was great and you could eat as much or as little as you'd like. they have lunch specials that are cheaper and allow you to eat the salad/pasta bar and side dishes or all that plus the chicken items that are delivered to your table. we met the owner who was very friendly and happy to have us. i would highly suggest it!

crcii. i am so excited! i just happened to look and you now have a salad bar only option! i can't wait to come back again and again for your wonderful salad bar! thank you so much for listening and helping those of us who don't care for the meat, but want your incredible salad bar! you have made a repeat customer out of me!

crcii. i'll have to say it's the best salad bar in knoxville. the potato salad is awesome as are the bloody marys. i was so full, i was sick. i didn't try any meat as i am a vegetarian. i must say, there should be a vegetarian option with just the salad bar. it was delicious, but i won't go back as i don't want to pay 30.00 for a salad,. the garlic mashed potatoes were good. i recommend trying it.

great food. the meat is cooked to perfection and seasoned very well. this applies to all the meats they serve. the salad bar is much more than a salad bar. its not cheap but you do get your money's worth....if your stomach has the room. staff is also very warm and prompt.

the best restaurante in knoxville!. our favorite restaurant in knoxville! my family and i have eaten in many brazilian steakhouses around the country and this is on the top of our list (less than $40 for all the meats selection they offer… just awesome, i've paid more than $50+ for the same meal elsewhere). we've also been to churrascarias in brazil and brazeiros is for sure an authentic experience. thank you for coming to knoxville, so that i don't have to anywhere else … highly recommended it!

can't wait to go back!. my wife and i have been to brazeiros 2 times since i found out they had finally open. what a wonderful place... meat lovers haven!!! well, to tell you the truth one of our friends didn't eat meat and decided to join us because it was my wife's birthday, when we asked the server if their had a vegetarian option, she said that the salad bar by itself was the option for a cheaper price (which also included the side dishes). anyway, lets go back to the meats! we loved the lamb, file mignon with bacon, chicken legs ... but our fav. was the house especialty - picana (spell?). we are so glad to have a place like this in knoxville. as i said... can't wait to go back!

great food, interesting salad bar, phenomenal wine list, and superb desserts. if you leave here hungry, it's your own fault. i can't give it a 5 though because it is expensive. about $50 a plate when all is said and done. i love food, but i didn't feel like i could eat that much food to justify the price. it was well-prepared though. atmosphere was very noisy. almost impossible to carry on a conversation across the table. we ended up yelling at each other. so while the food was no doubt good, we probably won't be back.

a must try restaurant!. brazerios was a great experience as everyone was very friendly and the food was delcious. it is definitely the place to go for some wonderful brazilian food!

brazeiros is fantastic - not only because of the amazing food, but also because of renata and zen zen. if you have the pleasure of meeting them, you'll understand immidiately why brazeiros is so brilliant. kudos!

had an amazing meal with service that was above & beyond!! i would highly recommend this restaurant!!

we went for my wife’s birthday for sunday lunch. there is nothing i could say that was not complimentary. we have been to several high priced restaurants, this was by far the best!!! at ruth chris’, you pick one type of meat and it is normally very good. however, here you get 15 different types of meat, and if you don’t like 1, you try the next one. we loved all the selections, it was definitely worth the money. the entire staff was wonderful, we will definitely be backs.

i attended a birthday dinner at brazerrios last night 6/21. it was a big party of 13 people. at the beginning of the dinner my sister and i decided that we would only have the vegetarian/salad bar option. the atmosphere was nice and the service was good. however, when it was time for the bills to come out my total was completely wrong. i had been charged for the wrong menu item. when i mentioned it to the server, he gave me a weird look and moved on to the other people in my party. while he was collecting everyone’s checks he told all the people who had the salad bar to raise their hands. i proceeded to raise my hand. he leaves the table and comes back to start collecting everyone’s checks. he comes to me and asks if mine is ready. this is the third time that i had to tell him i only had the salad bar. he goes on to say “the chef said you had meat” as well as “i collected your plate”. i said “i know you did and there was no meat”. this is when the people sitting around me had to chime in and exclaim i only had the salad bar option. this was the only reason he took my ticket and corrected it. i was deeply offended all night and into the next morning because i was treated as a liar and a thief. i decided to call today 6/22 and speak with a manager and explain what happened and how i thought it would be beneficial to have a policy change for the future. this would likely limit any confusion with tickets. to my surprise, the manager, elvis, tells me there was only one person with a salad, false. elvis, was walking around handing out meat and he gave it to everyone but one person, false. and the server that was helping our table was the best server there. that’s fine, but i didn’t have the best service! he continues on to say in a sarcastic manner with a chuckle, ‘he doesn’t know what else i want him to do because they corrected my ticket’. i’m not asking for anything free! 🗣 i want you all to change your procedures, so no more people are accused of stealing! elvis rushed me off the phone and said he would contact his corporate office and call me back. (i’ll keep you all updated if i ever hear back from him and his corporate office 🙄) to conclude, i did not have a pleasant time at this restaurant. so beware if you all decide to go in the future. make sure your waiter/waitress knows from the beginning what menu option you will be choosing from. or take a picture of what you eat. who wants to do that?! i work for my money everyday, as well as, everyone else and should be able to go into a restaurant and have a peaceful experience without arguing about a ticket.

i'll start by saying that brazil is my favorite place in the world and i love brazilian food. i have been to churrascarias in brazil, so i know what the real deal is. this was my second trip to this steakhouse, and it was just as delightful this time as the first. we didn't have reservations, but it was in between lunch and dinner, so we were able to get in without waiting. our waitress greeted us promptly and got our drink orders. if you've never tried the brazilian soda guarana, you should! i drink so much of this every time i'm in brazil! it's expensive here, but so is everything else, lol. you start by going to the salad bar, and it's definitely a brazilian salad bar. they have traditional items you will find in brazil, and it's definitely a treat and reminds me of being there! once you get back to your table, you have little coaster-like things that are red on one side and green on the other. when you are ready for meat, you turn the green side up, and the gauchos will begin stopping at your table. we had some really good gauchos with great personalities. a few were on the quiet side but all were very polite. everyone also gets 3 side dishes, fried bananas, loaded mashed potatoes and fried polenta. i don't ever really eat the potatoes but the polenta and bananas are amazing! you also get cheesy bread. i don't care for it, but my mom can never get enough of it. the only thing i didn't like about the meat was that no filet was ever served. everything else on the list was served and was so delicious, but we never did see any of the gauchos with filet. they really try to sell you dessert, and no wonder, because most of them are around $10! we were stuffed, but almost everyone around us was getting some type of dessert and i have to say, everything looked amazing. if i could have held it, i would definitely have gotten something! the manager also came by and talked for a while and was just super nice. we'll definitely go back again!

this place was outstanding! my wife and i visited for lunch. $25 per person. the salad bar was ok, just standard fare. the meal came with plantains and fried corn stocks. both were delicious. the reason you pick this place is the meat. each was expertly prepared. the ribeye and fillet mignon were the best i’ve ever had. seasoned heavily but when mixed with the tenderness of the meat made for a superb cut. we will definitely be back.

this place is absolutely amazing!!! everything about it is perfect. service, food, originality, everything! think buffet but better food than your standard fare
