   Food is ok, a little salty for my taste, need improvement on the time waiting for a Spetial meal request, more variety on salad bar, wait time also on drink refill, the welcoming could be a little bit more helpful, I ask one of the waiters for chimichurri and he said I can get it myself from the bar.

   We arrived at Avenida for their Friday lunch service, and what followed was an epicurean delight! We ordered the full experience, which offers seafood selections such as shrimp, scallops, and salmon that is served alongside the meat selections. Picanha, Bottom Sirloin, and Wagyu beef were all exceptional. Perfectly cooked and well seasoned. The shrimp, salmon and scallops were also very good. Be sure to take advantage of the salad / cold bar selections! My favorites were the smoked salmon and seared ahi tuna. Along with cold salad selections such as caeser salad, traditional wedge, and potato salad, they also offer an excellent selection of meats and cheeses with ample accompaniments to create your own charcuterie. The service is first class! Cordial and friendly staff busily walk the restaurant, attending to the needs of their patrons, with even the smallest of details jot escaping their attention. Great food, great service!

   They denied us the sizzling seven deal we reserved for and instead of charging us 37 each they charged 55 and blamed us for not telling the hostess at the front even though the reservation shows up in front of her. How were we supposed to know. Also brought us a bottle of water and opened it when we asked for regular water. Very unprofessional and definitely not going back, will be letting our friends know not to go there also. Such a scam, places is small, salad bar is very basic and limited, meat was over salted. Would have gone to chama gucha for that price, not worth it!

   The service fell short, and the food was underwhelming. The best options were the shrimp, salmon, and chicken legs, but even they weren't enough to redeem the experience. After three or four attempts, I've decided it's time to give up on this place.

   The meal was outstanding. I've been to all of the other churrascaria restaurants in the San Antonio metro area and this was probably my best experience. Top notch service by all employees. I appreciate the good wine list that has some moderately priced nice choices. Will definitely go back.

   Our visit was amazing! We were out celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday, and the experience was delightful. We loved that the restaurant was not too loud for us to hear each other. Our server was upbeat and provided a great merlot suggestion which was impeccable! We had a late visit, but at no point did we feel rushed. They were very welcoming and understanding the from start to finish.

    Service was painfully slow. Meats did not come around very often. When they did, they were cold, very fatty pieces, and generally unseasoned. The salad bar was small and didn’t not have many selections. The dining room was small and difficult to maneuver through. Our dirty plates and used dishes were not picked up and stayed on the table. I’ve been to many Brazilian steakhouses, and this was by far the worst. Between the slow service and poor quality food, we’ll never be back.

    Jai, we're truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience at our churrascaria. We take pride in our Brazilian hospitality, or "jeitinho brasileiro," which usually means warm, attentive service. It seems we dropped the ball this time, and that's not the Avenida Brazil way. Our gauchos should be circulating as frequently as the rhythm of a lively samba! We're addressing the concerns you've mentioned to make sure what you experience does not happen again. We'd love a chance to show you the true taste of Brazil. Please contact us directly at 281-900-1848, we promise to make your next visit as satisfying as winning the World Cup! Muito obrigado for your honest feedback. It helps us serve you better in the future. Até logo!
