Texas de Brazil - Albany

Good service with nice staff. Very informative of options and how everything works. I tried to the lobster bisque since I was having a drink at the bar and not the buffet. The lobster bisque was good, no pieces of lobster that’s ok but had some kind of fake Smokey flavor that gave me a headache as soon as I left. I had a passion fruit margarita which was great. Beautiful place but I’m not sure if I’ll totally come back though. Some of the buffet looked good and some of it seemed like basic potato salad etc. I LOVE meat but I’m not sure I would pay $56 a person for the experience. Inflation is what it is and they did have to raise their prices recently. The ambiance is sexy and great for dates. It definitely one of the more interesting restaurants I’ve been to.

Everything about this place was just so good. Went with a group of friends the wait time, and even with a reservation, it was a bit of a wait. But I do understand why. 10/10 will definitely be going back at some point.

My wife and I went here for our 47th Anniversary. The endless sliced hot meat was all very good, with the leg of lamb being my favorite. The ribs were what my wife liked the most, thankfully she doesn’t like smoke and they were great and not smoked. We had a pitcher of their white wine sangria and it was delicious and worth $48. The salad bar was perfect and everything we tried was great. Great array of desserts, we had the crème brûlée very good. This is a great place to celebrate a special event. We made our reservations using Open Table app. Got our $20 off dinner for 2 (first timers). They also give 10% off your bill for veterans, ty appreciated 🇺🇸 by one who served. Also the bar is open early and they have good happy hour prices. All in all glad we came here.

Celebrating tonight. First time my friend was here. You get unlimited soup (recommend you try the lobster bisque) and salad bar. Plenty of selections for any finicky eater and fresh. Refilled quickly any item that is out. The main course is the variety of meats served on long skewers. Chicken, ribs, flank steak, filet mignon done several ways, sausage and your signal for choice is what color your token is on the table. Red is stop and green is come on over to make a selection. The mashed potatoes and popovers delivered to each table is delicious. Very nice bar and wine selection. Dessert was crème brûlée and carrot cake. The carrot cake was huge and had to take half home. We did not have any alcoholic drinks and meal was $165 without tip.

Texas de Brazil delivers every time. Perfectly cooked filet mignon, a fresh salad bar, and those incredible stuffed roasted jalapeños—easily the best steak around. Great food, great atmosphere, and a birthday dinner done right!

Today was my first time at this restaurant and honestly, I found it totally confusing. We weren’t offered a food menu at all and had no idea what there was to eat or how much the food costs. The waitress apparently signed us up for the all you can eat dinner (we weren’t sure if that included the dessert or soup, so we skipped those). We also didn’t realize we could’ve gone back for more salad because we weren’t told it was an all you can eat menu. The salad bar was included per our waitress, and it was undoubtedly the best salad bar I’ve ever had. Wish I’d tried the lobster bisque and dessert. I had to look the place up online after the fact to find out what had just happened. We were told to flip over these cardboard circles when we were ready for meat, to signal the chefs when to serve us our meat. There weren’t any plates to put the meat on at our table, so they just added it to our salad plates when they did serve us. Not a big deal, but some people don’t like all the food squashed together. We had no idea what the meat would be. We could see chefs in these really cute gauchos serving meats on skewers to other tables, so we figured they’d tell us when they served us, and they did. We had no idea how much meat we were supposed to eat or how they were charging us for the meat. They offered us more meat than I’ve eaten in all of 2024 combined, and it was very good meat, but if I’d known that I could order just the salad bar, which I later read online is possible, I would’ve skipped the meat entirely. My husband was really annoyed by the entire experience, which entailed multiple servers offering tons of meats continuously after we’d finished our salads. We couldn’t talk or enjoy a relaxing meal at all because of the continuous activity at our table and all of the other tables in the vicinity. The food was delicious, but food is also delicious at a lot of high priced restaurants that offer quiet ambiance to diners. Food is also pretty delicious at low end brew pubs. We ordered two glasses of Chardonnay at $15 per glass and one $4 coffee so that added $34 to the bill. So all told, we got out of there for $159.82 plus 20% tip for the two of us. Kind of pricey for a confusing, chaotic, albeit delicious experience. It WAS an experience, though, and I’m really glad I went. I wish I’d known what I was doing before I went though, which is why I’m writing this review. I gave the service a mediocre rating, because I think we should have been offered a menu at the very least with some prices and options! If I ever go again (which is doubtful). I’d order only the salad bar and skip the pricey wine. One other thing I thought I’d mention was the lighting in the restroom. I had to use my iPhone flashlight to see myself in the mirror! 🤣🤣🤣

I love this restaurant. My personal fave meats are the flank steak and chicken. The salad bar is really phenomenal, but don't fill up there or you'll be mad at yourself. The items I enjoyed most are the Scalloped potatoes on the hot bar, the thinly sliced pineapple on the salad bar, the chimichuri sauce for dipping all the meats *especially the flank steak* and the lobster bisque is delicious. The rolls are so tasty too, they're a lot like pop overs. Most likely you'll need a Reservation on weekends. Not sure about during the week. For 3 of us to dine it was $250 which included tip & 2 alcoholic drinks. I'll definitely be going back! So good 👍

The atmosphere is great. Food is great as hell well. The server and gauchos were so professional that we felt very welcome to the restaurant. In addition the manager was so attentive and professional, she was checking on us and the rest of the guests with a wonderful smile. If I am not mistaken her name was Destiny . I brought my family there that came to visit from my country and it was the best choice ever. Thanks
