A friend and I attended the ribbon cutting event on 04/26 and was extended the full dinner experience. So many great things to mention. Definitely will be back with my family and friends. I posted plenty of photos along with a few videos. Please check them out. Happy eating!
Ambiance: Classy, clean with an elegant but not stuffy feel. It's warm & welcoming from the entrance, to the bar area, outdoor patio and the split dining room.
Service: From the time I arrived, everyone was friendly and inviting. Everyone in the building was highly attentive during our dinner service. Be careful when your card is turned Green side up because the Gauchos will continue to make their rounds until you turn that card onto the Red side to take a break or just to eat the food that's been cut onto your plate. Thanks to Thiago, Rodrigo, Matthew & the rest of the Galpao Gaucho Team for being so great to us! We couldn't even make room for dessert but our Server, Matthew, told us that they're great. Guess dessert will be on my list next time.
Food: The appetizers offered during the ribbon cutting event were great. It helped showcase their popular items & what they offer beyond that. The meats and seafood during dinner were superb.
Libations: Plentiful for the event. Cocktails, champagne and wine. They have a full bar with a few TV's to watch the playoffs.
Dining room: Very classy with white linens. No need to dress up though. It's a casual dining spot. Wear something that can expand as you fill up on the expansive salad bar, meats & seafood.
Free Parking: large open parking lot in the shopping center area for just this restaurant. Plenty of parking around. No valet or meters to worry about.
Restroom: Women's restroom is clean with several stalls. The only downside I noticed was the faucet. This is my personal thing so don't judge me. You literally have to turn the knob to the left for water flow and then turn it again to stop the water flow. I'm used to sensors. I don't like touching knobs so I use paper towels to turn them on & off. I know, I'm a weirdo. I'm...
Read moreThis is the place for a family friendly or intimate dining experience for a special event or a more upscale meal. The salad bar is delicious for vegetarians, and robust with items such as artichoke salad, quinoa salad, caprese, smoked salmon, prosciutto, multiple cheeses, potato salad, fresh spring greens with a tasty balsamic vinaigrette, Caesar salad, jasmine rice, candied bacon, beans, chicken soup, deviled eggs, and more. The salad bar is savory. For churrasco, enjoy chicken wings, salmon, Parmesan wrapped pork loin, picanha, alcatra (top sirloin), chicken heart, bacon wrapped chicken, and much more. Top with Chile sauce or chimichurri. Sides include a comforting cheesy mashed potatoes, traditional pao de queijo (cheese bread ,gluten free), and make sure you try the pineapple (glazed with cinnamon), and the Brazilian grilled cheese and honey! We had a picky child who enjoyed French fries and a fresh macaroni and cheese. Also, we had a pescatarian who found plenty to eat!
Pricing is free for little ones, about $40 for big kids and about $70 per adult.
I can’t say enough good words about the staff! They’re top notch! But you’ll want to come when you can enjoy a leisurely meal because the experience is one to enjoy! Atmosphere is fancy but not too stuffy. Linens, wine glasses and beautiful indoor seating with modern decor, or an outdoor patio seating.
I had a mimosa but didn’t look at the wine and cocktail list. It looked very good!
Desserts are a tad bit pricey and hit or miss on the quality. You may want to stick to pineapple, but certainly try a dessert if you wish. The staff will make things right. There’s chocolate lava cake, crème brûlée (ours was burnt), a couple tropical mousses, and cheesecake.
I’d say this is a great restaurant for a family special occasion, a date, or a leisurely meal with friends. You might not get to chat much because you’ll be busy eating!! There’s so many exceptional things to taste, so take your...
Read moreI absolutely fell in love with Galpão Gaucho Brazilian Steakhouse. From the very moment you walk in, with the gentle sound of piano music, the warm smiles of the staff, and the cozy atmosphere, you feel like you’ve entered a special place where you can truly relax and recharge. The service is incredibly friendly and attentive, yet never intrusive — everything feels calm and welcoming. The live piano music adds a special charm, creating the perfect background for a relaxing evening. And the food… it’s simply a feast! They keep bringing something new, and everything is hot, juicy, and full of flavor. The variety of beef cuts was outstanding: picanha, spicy picanha (Picanha Apimentada), garlic picanha (Picanha com Alho), ribeye (Contra-filé Ancho), fraldinha (bottom sirloin), filet mignon, filet mignon wrapped in bacon, and beef ribs (Costela de Boi). On top of that, there were also delicious pork ribs (Costela de Porco) and perfectly grilled shrimp. Every bite was juicy and cooked to perfection. It’s amazing how many different flavors and textures you get to experience in one evening. Watching the servers walk around with skewers felt like being part of a real culinary ritual — a nonstop celebration at the table. All in all, this is the kind of place you want to come back to again and again. Here you can truly relax both body and soul. Highly recommend it — this restaurant is...
