   I booked a dinner for 9 people for a business get together and it couldn’t have gone better. The waitress was great and the food was out of this world. From the salad bar to the main course was delicious and we of course finished with perfect sweets to end the night. Thank you for a fantastic meal and we will all be back!

   it was too crowded. They added way too many chairs in there for Valentine’s Day. I felt like we were way too close to the other people and we did not have the regular tables. The little bitty tables that we had looks like backyard tables.

   This is the worst experience I’ve had at chamas since I started going there. I made reservations early and was still seated inside of a small room packed with multiple tables. The table was small to accommodate the food and drinks and cramped against the wall of the room. My wife eats meats at a different temperature than I and she did not receive options she preferred often. At 60.00 per plate that’s unexceptable. We will unfortunately look for other places to eat for special occasions next time. I am highly disappointed with everything about this restaurant today.

   was there for Valentine's Day. Salad Bar had great variety and well presented. The meats were well prepared and well seasoned. Staff was attentive but not overbearing. Our server was well informed as to wine pairings. The Gauchos responded quickly to special requests for doneness. Chamas has reclaimed it's place as our favorite Brazilian Steakhouse.

   The experience overall was OK. The food was good but way too overpriced for the lack of how many times we were offered meats. We went with the intentions knowing it would be expensive but it goes back to the lack of service. This will be my first and only time going.

   Great atmosphere, excellent cuts of meat, very professional and attentive waiter. Very good experience overall. Just one thing to mention, it was my first time here and according to the website lunch costs around $30 and we went at noon. When we paid they charged us like a dinner and that's almost double. I asked the waiter and he told me that was the correct price but nowhere on the website or in the entry did he show that clarification, especially to have things clear from the beginning.

    This restaurant has been our favorite date-night and special occasion restaurant for years. Like any restaurant, there are some days when things are better than others. Last night, the filet mignon was out of this world. If I could do last night over, I think I would have just skipped the other meats and had the gauchos repeatedly bring only filet mignon. But I think my favorite thing about this restaurant has been its people. We are usually waited on by the same two people every time we go, and they feel like part of our family. But on my trip last night, I was disheartened to find out that David Genoroso, who had been the general manager for the last 9 years, is no longer there. The new GM is his father-in-law, and he will never have the same level of people skills as David. When Judy and I entered the restaurant, David always greeted us by name and with love and enthusiasm in his heart. He was a remarkable person and a LOT of regular customers will be saddened that David is no longer there. While I am sure the new GM is a competent, intelligent guy, the smartest thing he could do is get David back (with a considerable raise) because many people went to the restaurant because David was their friend and made it feel like a place where you belonged. The servers were visibly happy working for David, but I could sense the staff's loss of enthusiasm last night. They did their job capably, as always. But I spent enough time learning about "esprit de corps" from the Army to know how important it is and be able to tell when it is missing. Please, Chamas do Brazil, bring back David with a pay increase. I am an engineer and always tell people that you should not fix what is not broken. You were wrong to change managers, and it will lead to a decline in business. Watch your revenue, and you will see that I am right. My wife and I will still eat here, but less frequently since David is no longer there.
