The place is dimly lit with a romantic touch. Not a silent place so no privacy breaches 😉 There are three options to choose from. You can go for the salad bar only option starting as the lowest option (32) and then there is seafood and chicken option at (38). The best full experience option is (58) the highest. The full experience is well worth the price, especially if you have no dietary restrictions. For both the second and third options you will get a round slip/card which will have two faces. According to the side you keep it the servers will offer you food and else they will not disturb you. The system works quite well. The drinks and dessert are extra but are very reasonable and worth the price. Desserts are 8 or 9 per item and the amounts are very generous. Staff members are courteous and very caring. A good unique experience. Highly recommended, especially for a special day.

Overall, a good experience. Salad bar was fresh and delicious. Great variety of sides, cheeses, and dressing. The Spanish rice was delicious, but was empty and not replaced throughout the night. The meat is cooked either medium or medium rare; no options for medium-well. All staff is very nice. Restaurant itself is clean but the Bathroom was not clean at all.

What a delightful place. A week day lunch provided and endless parade of amazing meats, some seafood, a large salad bar with tons of choices and all for less than $35. Dinner and weekends is around $50. The level of service had no boundries, friendly and attentive. Every gaucho that brought food was super nice. I was raising a white flag in no time. In addition, they provide each patron with mashed potatoes, polenta, caramelized bananas and bread from the kitchen. An amazing selection for the money, it's win win. Highly recommend. Sorry, I was to busy eating to take pictures of the meat.

So so good. Loved our waitress and the staff. The salad bar is amazing just by itself, but the cuts of meat at phenomenal. I've been to several different Brazilian steakhouses, and I believe this had the best variety of items on the salad bar out of any of them. The lobster bisque is great, the beans with pork belly were so good. Very professional inside and excellent service. Can't wait to come back!

Nice restaurant. Salad bar has a lot of filling dishes, and the sides they bring to the table include mashed potatoes, some type of thick fry (looks like Yucca, but I'm not sure), and caramelized bananas. They serve a good variety of meats, and they're pretty tasty. You can ask for sauce if you'd like to have some with your meat. I had A-1, Chimichuri, and horseradish. Nice place to go for a special occasion. I get full fast, so I didn't eat as much as I wanted to eat, but I enjoyed what I did. The servers were all pleasant.

Terra Gaucha won us over. Our party of 15 was there to celebrate a birthday. The atmosphere was nice and inviting. We ordered drinks at the bar while we waited for the rest of our party to arrive. The bar was staffed properly and we didn't wait long for our delicious cocktails. My spouse ordered the smoked old-fashioned and said it was great! The hot and cold bar was stocked with so many options like lobster bisque soup, wedge salad smoked salmon and more. The table service was acceptable and the small party room was accommodating enough. The full experience meal included various meat options and sides delivered directly to your plate. The servers were plentiful just like the lamb, beef, chicken and salmon to name a few. Everything was hot, fresh and fast!!

Very attentive wait staff/servers. They were on top of all our needs! The servers came around even when our meal cards weren’t turned “green” which was awesome. Unlimited meat and salad bar for 51$ per person is the way to go!!

I want to say our servers name was Alonzo and he was AMAZING! I’m not a huge meat eater but wanted to bring my mom. The cold/hot bar was phenomenal! LOVED all the options especially the lobster bisque. Everyone was so friendly and made sure you got more of whatever meats you wanted. I will definitely go back🤤🤤🤤

Excellent Brazilian cuisine! The gourmet bar has numerous items to choose from. The staff is very friendly and attentive. We did not go unserved. Drinks were promptly refilled, meats were delivered to the table constantly. My only complaint on this visit, is that there was a table behind us who continued to drink and became very loud and obnoxious. Other than that, I would definitely recommend Terra Gaucha to anyone who loves a Brazilian steakhouse! The Brazilian Lemonade is so delicious and refreshing. The choices of meat are endless. We will definitely be returning for our next special occasion. Kudos to the team of Terra Gaucha!

Dinner was absolutely excellent! The meat was fresh and had rare pieces and more medium pieces to suit everyone's tastes. The lamb was definitely one of the best parts. Don't fill up too much from the salad bar because the meat they bring you is definitely worth it. You will fill up quickly. I had the Godiva chocolate martini and it was delicious. Our server was excellent and gave great service. It was our anniversary and they brought us a really nice dessert!

This was our first time visit. This was The Best Dining Experience that we've Ever had! (Seriously we've been places too) From the Delightful Fresh Salad bar Deluxe, the Meat Choices plus Shrimp,chicken, sausage. My Fav was the Rare Filet Mignon, I could Not Stop eating:) We finished with coffee & Flan for dessert 💕! The Best Ever Too! From the Hostess,Wait Staff,Chefs, floor Mgr 100% Top Notch All the way!! We will Be Back again and again😊

Enjoyed the food and atmosphere here. If you leave hungry...it's your own fault. The meats were excellent and the salad bar was great. The top off was the Creme Brulee. Not an everyday thing but great place for a special occasion.

This restaurant is amazing! We rented their larger event room to celebrate our adoption. The event coordinator Katie was very helpful and made organizing the event super easy. The room is beautiful and the food was awesome. My guests were treated so well, and the way they waited on our kids made them feel so special. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone wanting to celebrate a special event. The servers went above and beyond bringing food and drinks, and they were so friendly. I can't say enough to express how happy we were with how everything turned out!!

This was awesome!! Great service from our server Chris and all of the staff! We had such a nice meal for Christmas Eve! Meat cooked perfectly! Best Brazilian steakhouse I have ever been to! Thanks for the great service, we will be back! Just outstanding!!!!

Absolutely phenomenal!! We have been to Texas de Brazil before, but never Terra Gaucho. It was so good! The service seemed faster here, and the meat more tender. Some of the filet wasn’t seasoned enough, but all of the other choices of meat were extremely good. There was also a salmon option, cheese curd, shrimp, and roasted cinnamon pineapple that makes coming here a better choice than Texas de Brazil. The seating here is very cramped and the ambiance doesn’t feel as high end, but I believe this is a better choice than any other Brazilian steakhouse!! You will need a reservation. Ours was at 7:30pm and we were sat at 7:28pm. Fantastic timing and service all around. We never had an empty drink, the sides and meat were always coming, and the servers were attentive and very kind. Highly recommend!

10/10 all around. Absolutely AMAZING FOOD AND SERVICE. This review doesn’t do this place justice. You must experience this amazing restaurant. Big shout out to Sebastian and Alfonso our waiters, incredibly nice and attentive. Never had an empty glass or plate. Again AMAZING. Thank you so much for everything. Our anniversary couldn’t have been better.

5 star on everything! Salad Bar had a solid selection. The meats especially the picanha was to die for. Probably wouldn’t have stopped eating if I had more room. This is the best Brazilian Churrasco place I have ever tried. Service was top-notch, wine selection was expansive. I had the Malbec which is the perfect pair. I will 100% come back!

What a sumptuous meal I had here at Terra Gaucha! Food was great and service was even better. The steaks were seasoned just perfectly, unlike other places where they season too much, probably to mask the freshness of the meats. This place was not that!

Amazing experience! Great service and fresh, high quality foods. Lamb shanks seared gorgeously, loads of beef cuts and sides galore. Best drink: Rio Fresh🍹I see why people frequent often, the hostess and servers are very nice 👍🏾

The food was amazing. The servers were awesome and super friendly. I’m very impressed with how wonderful they were with us being deaf. We celebrated our 50th birthday there with a group of 12 people. Definitely will return!

The food is amazing, extremely friendly staff and the atmosphere is perfect for celebrating! I highly recommend Terra Gaucha for your next outing. We celebrated my mother in laws birthday and she absolutely loved every minute of it. Thanks for another memorable moment!

One of the best, if not the best, Brazilian steakhouses I’ve been to. Friendliest staff and management. Very attentive to details and your experience. Try their candied bacon with cracked pepper from the salad bar. No regrets. The steaks are all delicious. Sometimes they have these red chilis you can request for and are great. Ask for the chimichurri to accompany the food, as well!

I ate so much I could barely walk out of this place! The food and staff were fantastic. We came for my brother’s birthday party and they did not disappoint! The meat and seafood options were fantastic. The buffet was decent but the hot to order food was best. We gave the staff the birthday cake for my brother and they cut it for us with no extra charge. Service and ambiance were fantastic! Definitely recommend this place and will for sure be back! Follow me on IG @Talkshebusiness for more places to explore!

I have been here twice now and I forget what it feels like too over eat until the end each time. 🤣 This place is delicious! My favorite meat is the lamb for sure! And the runner-up is probably the beef ribs. So many delicious meats, and so much fresh foods around the buffet. Love this place and definitely plan to come back.

We have been to several Brazilian steak houses over the years! This one was not even close food wise as far as quality or taste. Most of the meats were not tender and over salted. Another issue was, it's way too tightly packed with tables. It's just nuts! Was like sardine's, people coming at you from every angle, not relaxing at all. The service was good, they are very nice, however had we known about the chaos and the food quality, we would have had our drinks at the bar and drumsticks with polenta and fries and left. We had a great drink, and the bartender Jose was very kind and helpful! That food was better and less crazy as opposed to navigating from the table to the salad bar... etc. I would have given less than 3 stars had it not been for the pre-dinner experience.

Service is outstanding 🌟 booked a table - highly recommended as potentially huge wait if not - we arrived early so had a drink at the bar while we waited and by the time I paid for the drinks our table was ready. I cannot praise the service by all enough, very attentive but did not feel overbearing, as each interaction was succinct and appropriate in terms of frequency and content👌 the food was good, nice selection from the salad bar and there is also some hot food items but didn't have chance to try them all as ran out of stomach real-estate lol. The giant bean salad is delicious and the choice of cheeses were very tasty! They give you a token to let the servers know you want table-side meat and they are super fast at spotting a green (yes, please) side compared to red (no, thank you) side. The yucca fries and mashed potatoes were devine; the bananas tasted like hot banana, so would have preferred green plantains. The sausage and lamb wrapped with bacon were my favorites but a lot of the meat tasted quite salty - not sure if that's the style of Brazilian cooking but it was a little off putting. Sadly, I had no room for dessert but they looked (from my peering eyes to other tables) to be very good portion size and very tasty! The caipirinha cocktail with passion fruit is delicious! Very happy to have the Terra Gaucha experience.

Our experience could not be better! Our first time at this place and for sure, we will be coming back! Starting with booking, we did not make a reservation but we got seated in less than 40min. The service was perfect, waiters very friendly and promptly to attend, if needed. Salad bar had lots of options like Hearts of Palm, Plantain, pineapple with cinnamon, 5 options of cheese, salami, farofa, polenta frita, pão de queijo e feijoada. I loved the sliced smoked salmon they had there, it was spectacular, fresh and tasty. Gauchos will feel like home, the meat quality was beyond my expectation: Juicy, tender and perfect: picanha and vazio were my top choices. Not even mentioning the "butter rib" slowly cooked brought to us by Cicero, where you can see on the picture. You know if the rib is well cooked if you don't need a knife to cut, we just used our fork for that! Amazing! They offer great options for desserts, but we decided to go with Creme Brulee and Papaya Cream with Cassis as it was Paulo's recommendation (one of the owners that stopped by to our table and was talking how happy he is to meet Brazilian Customers when they are at his restaurant). Me and my husband had a great time while we enjoyed the best BBQ in TAMPA. Learned more about his experience brought from Nova Brescia - RS! We are pleased to recommend this place if you really want to enjoy a great BBQ done by a Traditional Brazilian Gaucho! Well done Paulo! Congratulations to you, family and your great employee team!!!

Loved our experience here! I didn’t get any good pictures of the meats, but they were all absolutely delicious! They have salmon and shrimp in addition to beef, pork and chicken. Love that you can sample a little bit of everything! Lobster bisque at the salad bar was so delicious too!

We hosted our sons rehearsal dinner here in September and it was wonderful! Everyone was so organized and accommodating. We reserved the private room, which was perfect for our party of 42. Everything was delicious and everyone was very happy. Next time we go to Tampa, we will make sure to come in for a visit! Highly recommend.

Was so happy to have my birthday event here! From the ambiance, cocktails, and some of the best food I've tasted in Tampa, my guests and I had the best time. Shout out to the events manager, Ms. Katie and the entire staff, for making my day truly special. If you haven't already ready, check them out Y'all!! It's not about the money, it's about the Experience.

First time here…certainly not the last! Was the best experience from service, drinks and food. Mouth watering meat and the buffet spread…out of this world. 5 star experience. Worth the money.

Def will return. Excellent service, with great food in a happy environment. My last similar meal was at Texas de Brazil Irvine, CA, which I gave a 3 - no comparison, imho. The salad bar is very decent and can be stand alone or with the meal. The veggies are fresh. Papaya is tender and juicy. I didn't try the cold cuts but they look pretty. They provided 3 small plates to the table: parmesan cheese puff, polenta fritter and caramelized banana. The last two are yummy. Didn’t try the puff. The endless meats come/leave fast (would prefer slower pace, not feeling rushed) ... most of photos are blurry - of course my skill isn't top notch either. One server did ask if I got the photo, I said yes even I didn't - don't want to break their rhythms or flows. Beef of various cuts, pork, lamb, chicken, sausage, shrimp, etc. I like the lamb chop and beef ribs the most. The bathroom is no frill and clean ... but the hook is so high - at the top of the door, even with my high heels I can't reach. What are they thinking?!
