chama gaúcha brazilian steakhouse

this place is ameatlovers paradise! fantastic food. great service. my new favorite san antonio restaurant.

great for the most part. the service and environment were the best i ever had. the waiters are really adamant when it comes to service. if you likemeatyou come here. go at lunch for bigger savings if you can. the salad bar is ok compared to the other brazilian steakhouses i have been to.

awesome all around! i try to eat at brazilian steakhouses whenever i get a chance and i have to say this was the best experience my wife and i have ever had not only at a brazilian steakhouse but anywhere. the meats were amazing, had a great food bar and the service was incredible. themeatwas always coming and servers were always stopping by to offer any service. they also serve several sauces with the meal for themeat(not that themeatneeded any). i had the chimichuri that was very good. outstanding, i highly recommend for any special occasion.

protien heaven. this place is fantastic for those of us who really love to eat lots ofmeatat one sitting. the food is very well cooked, and presented. the staff is fantastic - trying to assure you enjoy not only your meal but the time spent devouring a side of beef.

impressed. i have been to quite a few brazilian steakhouses and this one ranks near the top. the "gauchos" are very friendly, my wife multiple times asked them for a more medium wellmeatand they went and came back pretty quickly with what she asked for. other places they said they would, but never came back with what was asked for, only more rare to medium beef.

the salad bar is good here, but not as extensive as some others, but still very very good. its almost like comparing a ferrari to a lamborghini.

as far as price, it is expensive so bring your appetite, and if it seems high to you, just come for the lunch, its exactly the same product.

finally, that entryway is very cool/stylish, feels like you are entering a high end boutique restaurant. nice atmosphere all around in the restaurant.

either add moremeaton that $45.95 to go menu or just close down. i order 2 of the $45.95 and when i got home, my wife took everything out and i was pissed on the size ofmeatportion! if you are going to charge regular price as if someone is eating inside, then give more portion ofmeatto go during this time of covid-19. damn all you doing is to go order because of the coronavirus pandemic and you ripping people off!!!

outstanding food. primemeatcooked over open fire ...brazilian style. sirlion (the best), ribeye, filet, lamb (ugggg), sausage and even chicken. don’t pass up the salad bar...especially the wedge of lettuce with blue cheese dressing with bacon...,hmmmm good. dessert is ok.

there is a reason this place is rated #1...

best brazilian steakhouse in san antonio by far!!

this restaurant has a great parking lot and valet parking if needed, the people who works here as servers and managers are very nice, the salad bar was fresh and delicious, and themeatselection is the best in flavor, in my opinion the service always is outstanding.

worth every penny, just don't fill up on the salad bar that was my mistake when i first came here, the first time i visited i thought it was just okay because i didn't get to try enough of the meats and i wasn't wowed and amazed by the salad bar. the second time i went though i listened to the servers advice and went super lite on the salad bar and just had the meat, potatoes, rice and beans.... huge difference! themeatwas so flavorful and so tender, loved the ribeye and the bacon wrapped filet. so good!!! themeatis definitely where it's at people! :) went up at the end and grabbed a few things at the salad bar but from now on definitely keeping the salad bar super lite, makes a huge difference! will definitely be back!

this place is a must for anymeatlover! the food was outstanding! i could only make it through 9 meats but they were all excellent. the salad bar was great as well. great presentation and everything was so fresh. the dessert we got were on point as well. i recommend the cheesecake that they light on fire. the service was very good as well. i would come back to this place in a heartbeat.

we just love brazilian bbq and this one was another solid winner. the salad bar was extensive (which is fairly common) but was lacking any hot food or soups. the meats were perfectly seasoned and often available in both medium and medium-rare, the latter of which helped to make my servings moist and tender just the way i like it. the side dishes include (among other things) an almost addictive doughy roll that falls in the “betcha can’t have just one” category.

what made this place stand out though was the constant level of service from every staff member within line of sight. everyone here is watching the level of your glass of water or whether a particular cut ofmeatcame by when you were in “no thanks” mode. service plus plus!

greatest meat, greatest salad bar and greatest service i have ever experienced. we were sat right before they closed for a few hours before dinner. we ate the finestmeati've ever tasted for two hours and were never once rushed. i didn't taste a single thing that wasn't amazing. from the artisan cheeses to the wedge salad to the freshly sliced ribeye. i can't wait to go back to this place.

bad experience. we went here recently with a party of 8 people. we had reservations which they did not honor and we had to wait. then the service was horrible. had to wait for drinks and waters to be refilled. had to wait for sides. had to ask repeatedly for things. then the waiter had the nerve to say that we should come earlier next time for better service. first of all we arrived early they just refused to seat us. then, since tip/gratuity is already included in that size of party, they could do whatever they wanted and they'd still get the same tip. we were all not happy with our visit this time and will be considering a different option next time.

expensive but decent. we've been to 3 different brazilian steakhouse around the country. this one is the most expensive. we both agreed that the buffet/salad bar needs labeling. it had a pretty good selection, but not enough items that i particularly cared for. then there is the menu which we never saw so we didn't know what was offered and i had to see that someone else got something and question what it was in order to order it. then there was the sides that came out to the table the bananas tasted like alcohol, not pleasant at all. typically at other brazilian steakhouses they too had the red/green notification to the staff on when/if you wantmeatetc, but this was ridiculous in that if you had it set to green you weren't given a chance to breathe much less eat anything they would all pounce on your table it seemed at once. i also noticed the staff observing the dining area waiting for the opportunity to pounce on empty tables or diners needing anything it was too much chaos for that expensive and trying to be fancy type of a restaurant i actually noticed a couple of collisions once a staff member actually backed into another who was holdingmeatand knife, not safe. may be back, but it won't be too soon based on the price and chaos.

impressive. i was invited to celebrate my friend's birthday and was so impressed! the atmosphere was relaxing while waiting for friends. staff asked if wanted a drink while i waited. once we sat, waiters were attentive to every need...offering me my seat followed by placing napkin on my lap...wow! i'm not big on meats because my experience has been eating tough meat. i ate so much! everymeatentrée was made to perfection. i will definitely be bringing my family (i'm girl on right of pic). ★

the best brazilian steakhouse in sa. the service is always on point! i love their cheese bread, plantains, and their salad bar! the cuts ofmeatare delicious. the lamb and ribeye are my absolute favorites but everything is delish. i have been here multiple times and it still never ceases to amaze me.
