Avenida Brazil stays true to the foundations of the traditional Brazilian churrascaria. We offer a world class upscale dining experience with several of the finest cut meats, amazing side dishes, desserts and a full bar that includes red & white wines from across the globe.

The experience is split up into two parts

Part 1: Salad Bar - After being seated, guests can help themselves to our gourmet salad bar stocked with more than 30 fresh items.

Part 2: Meat - At each of our seats, we include a coaster with a red side and a green side. Once back at their table, guests can start signaling our gauchos (meat servers) by flipping over the coaster to the red side. This indicates that the guest is ready to enjoy the 13+ succulent meats, which include lamb, beef, chicken, and fish. As an accent to the meat, we provide five delicious side dishes.

    Josefina, your kind words about our service warm our hearts like the sun on Copacabana beach. We're thrilled that you enjoy dining with us, savoring every moment like a perfect caipirinha. Your 5-star ratings have us dancing the samba with joy! However, your private note struck a somber chord, like a sudden pause in our lively bossa nova. We take this matter very seriously adn will be addressing it with our staff. Muito obrigado for your honesty, Josefina. We promise to address this issue faster than Pelé on a breakaway. We hope to welcome you back soon for another delightful experience, free from any concerns.

    Usually, service is great, but tonight was not. When we first arrived, it wasn't busy at all. I had to ask twice to have meat brought to us as we were being passed over even though we had green side up. The food was great when we received it. Our dessert was forgotten about, and when we received, it was more room temperature, which doesn't do well with cheesecake. Waited a bit for check and paid cash. Restaurant had added a fair tip automatically due to the Valentine's event, and we were due change, but after over 20 minutes of not receiving change, we went up front and asked for it. They claimed we weren't at the table when they brought it, but we had been there the entire time. Overall, from sit down to leaving was a little over 2 hours due to all the delays. Off our dare nite places for a while.
    Avenida Brazil - WoodlandsResponded 6 days ago
    Max, we're truly sorry your Valentine's Day experience wasn't as smooth as a bossa nova melody. The service hiccups you faced are as out of place in our churrascaria as snow in Rio! While we're glad the food hit the right notes, the delays and oversights are not our usual samba. From the forgotten dessert to the confusion with your change - these mistakes are as sour as a caipirinha without sugar. We'd love the chance to make things right and show you the true Avenida Brazil spirit. Muito obrigado for your honest feedback, Max. It helps us improve faster than a carnival dancer's spin. We hope to see you again soon!
