  • Chama Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse

    5865 Westheimer Rd. Galleria

    713-244-9500

    Chama Gaucha is an upscale Brazilian, rodizio-style steakhouse chain that only has four locations in a few cities: Chicago, San Antonio, Atlanta and Houston. The Houston location is on Westheimer just outside the Galleria area. The well-appointed restaurant is known for its attention to service and for its fresh, high-quality salad bar and meats. The salad bar offers a selection of more than 30 fresh fruits, vegetables, salads, charcuterie, cheese and hot items. From the grill, there are 15 types of meat, including the popular picanha, or rump cap, as well as top sirloin, rib eye, beef ribs, lamb chops and more.

  • Emporio Brazilian Grill

    12288 Westheimer Rd Unknown

    281-293-7442

    Black-&-white eatery serving traditional Brazilian food, from seafood stews to grilled meats.
  • Fogo De Chao Churrascaria

    8250 Westheimer Rd. Outer Loop - SW

    713-978-6500

    It would be difficult for even the most refined carnivore to refrain from licking his chops when first laying eyes on this South Brazilian restaurant. Scurrying from table to table are seemingly dozens of waiters in gaucho garb with flashing knives and long skewers of meat. Lunch and dinner are on a flat-rate-per-person basis, which includes all the meat you can eat, and a colorful, panoramic salad bar. All the meat is first-rate. Waiters advise you to pace yourself. "Relax," they say. But how can anyone relax when everything about this place says "dive in"?

  • Fogo do Chão

    309 E 3rd St. Austin

    512-472-0220

  • Friends Pizzeria

    7952 Westheimer Outer Loop - SW

    281-888-9564

    You can order a pepperoni pizza here, but you'd be missing out on Friends Pizzeria's real specialties: Brazilian-style pizza and X-tudo burgers. A thin, low-gluten crust on the pizza is barely topped with tomato sauce, but covered with all manner of ingredients, some exotic, some not: catupiry cheese, corn, peas, boiled eggs. The X-tudo burgers - Brazilian slang for "with everything" - come similarly outfitted, most with a slice of ham and a fried egg on top as well. Corn, pea and marinara sauce-covered hot dogs are a trip, too, but anyone can enjoy Friends's classic Brazilian desserts: papaya cream and strawberry cream, like fruity shakes in a bowl.

  • Pradaria Steaks & Churrascaria - CLOSED

    10694 Westheimer Memorial

    281-501-2960

    Along with the all-you-can-eat rodizio, this Brazilian churrascaria in Memorial offers lots of à la carte deals for people who aren't interested in pigging out on steak. There's grilled salmon and flounder and even a seafood platter, all of which come with Pradaria's extensive salad bar. There's also the salad bar-only option -- and it includes sushi.

  • Samba Grille

    530 Texas Ave. Downtown/ Midtown

    713-343-1180

    Samba Grille is a steakhouse, yes, but not like any other steakhouse in town. The South American-tinged dishes here feature a range of flavors, from Peruvian ceviches to Argentinean-style beef hearts served alongside plantains. Steaks here are always top-notch and seafood receives the same thoughtful treatment in dishes like a tamarind-glazed salmon or lobster bisque with giant choclo corn pieces throughout. The wine list is excellent, with a Winemaker system giving lots of by-the-glass options that would normally be cost-prohibitive.
