My 1st time there! An amazing place to get attentive service. The food tastes delicious and the bar has a great selection too. The servants have their eyes on you & when you are ready for more they are right there to fill your plate! I felt very relaxed and happy to be served with a warm welcome. The ambiance was spot on. I will return to Terra Gaucha Brazilian style restaurant shortly!

The staff were all attentive and very friendly. The salad bar had an extensive assortment of items. The items I had were all good, nothing really stood out as exceptional or deserving of another trip to the salad bar. However, I intentionally did not try many of the items because I was saving room for the meat. My top three favorite meat items were: 1) bacon wrapped filet, 2) lamb chops, and 3) Parmesan encrusted pork. Our drinks from the bar were delicious and we enjoyed a shot of tequila the bartender prepared table side from his rolling bar cart.

Researched the other Brazillian steak houses in the area and this one seemed the most authentic. It was delightful! Might not look like the most upscale on the outside, but the inside is just lovely. We sat outside on the patio and the weather was perfect. Don't worry - the gauchos will visit you plenty out here. We had full plates of everything we wanted as much as we wanted. Everything is delicious, but this is the one place where the filet is NOT the star of the show. Its definitely the picanha. I would almost say you can skip everything else. Service was very friendly and attentive. White table cloth with the little crumb scraper when you're done. Nice touch! Loved the buffet too. Just really really wonderful and I know we'll be back. When we've saved up a little! (They are ALL expensive... this one is definitely worth it!)

There are several options on the cold/hot bar that are very good. There's more food than I've ever seen in my life. Many of the cuts of meat are very good. I enjoyed the salmon and the prosciutto/cheese cuts at the cold bar the best. The chimichurri was delicious. Great atmosphere and staff. Seems very clean. I do understand why it's so expensive but that's why I didn't give a full 5. I've had food that's to die for, for much less and then had leftovers. I don't really eat enough in one sitting to justify the price point. That being said, it's good. Some pieces are wonderful. It's a fun experience and should be tried at least once.

**First-Time Surprise** To be completely honest, I had no idea what made a Brazilian steakhouse different from any other steakhouse. When we walked into Fogo de Chão, we were completely unaware of what was in store for us. It turned out to be a treat we hadn't expected, offering a meal beyond our imagination. The food was abundant, the variety was enormous, and it was unbelievably delicious. To say I recommend this place is an understatement; I would classify it as a "Must Try" for anyone who enjoys a great meal. Just one tip: come hungry, because you'll definitely leave full!

Celebrated my son's birthday at Terra Gaucha as it seems like a yearly tradition. We really love the atmosphere and the service never disappoint. Food is really great and so is the dessert. I would not recommend sitting near the salad bar area as there are multiple employees walking around as well as guests. It's a complete distraction for me and I didn't like it. They provided my son with a complementary dessert and a $25 coupon for his next visit.

We went on a Friday night and you definitely need reservations and a few extra minutes for parking bc this place is super popular, and for good reason. The food is amazing and service is nonstop. The salad bar is crazy. Though skip the huge abundance of yummy looking shrimp because the grilled shrimp is even better. Tender and with a hint of citrus. The mashed potatoes were great. The grilled veggies. The lobster bisque. The lamb. There are too many items to mention and all were fabulous. I don't live in Jacksonville but can't wait to go back.

We tried this restaurant for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised with the inside, their service and delicious food. We were celebrating my birthday here. The inside is nice and big and you also have ample parking outside. There's gourmet salad bar with a wide variety of vegetables and salad. They also had a good variety of meat tonight such as filet, chicken, salmon, lamb and more. I liked the filet, chicken leg and salmon the most. The food was fresh and I liked their quick service. The manager was nice as well. He took the time to check on us from time to time. They also offered complimentary dessert. I went with the passion fruit. It was too sweet for me but I appreciated their nice gesture to make the evening special. They also gave us $25 off towards our next visit. I look forward to trying this place again in the future.

One of my ultimate favorite new steak houses here in Florida!!! Customer service as soon you walk in through the door, you are greeted with happy faces. The water never touches the bottom of the glass that's how good the service is haha. You can request certain meats to be brought to your table and the waiters are very attentive at all times. The food you have three options for pricing purposes: 1- Full Salad Bar $18.95 2- Full Salad Bar + Chicken + Seafood Items $31.95 3- Full Salad Bar + All Meats & Grilled Items $39.95 Drinks and desserts are not included. I truly like the fact that they give the options to anyone who wants to eat there at a different price and do not set limits to only meat lovers. Vegan and Vegetarian Friendly!!! Also, they have a great selection of wine and cocktails. Ambiance was classy and nice but can also dress casually especially now in the summer like jeans and a shirt type of thing. Highly recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Wow. Great service and great food. Been here a few times and each time was better than the last. It's a huge place, but laid out well with the buffet area in the center of the restaurant. Just the buffet options would be well worth the price for the selections and delicious options. The meat choices are also abundant and cooked perfectly.
