They need to rethink how the salad bar works and have two pathways for people to go through the line. My wife waited for 20 minutes just to go through one time.  

Business response:

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the food and service, but we're sorry about the wait at the salad bar. Your suggestion about adding a second pathway is greatly appreciated and will be shared with our team as we look for ways to improve the guest experience. We hope to welcome you and your wife back again soon.

Very dissatisfied with this service. Asked for extra lemon Carlos never brought it and we never saw him again. Jen was amazing! She was attentive even though she was pushing the drink cart and serving other tables. We had to keep asking for bread and grilled cheese. When the cheese finally came about 20 minutes later it was cold. My friend had to flag the guy down just for cold cheese, gross. There was a guy just hovering around our area who looked lost and kept a dirty dish on his tray walking back and forth. It made me lau... read more

My first and last visit there. Went on a Sunday at 530. Service was erratic and unorganized. I either had meat to eat or potatoes but never at the same time. The meat did have a good flavor but definitely not worth the price I paid for it. Was disappointed

Sunday at 2pm as a party of two (2) we dined at Chama Gaucha - San Antonio. I was billed with 18% auto gratuity when my waitress/service did not merit it. Why? 

Business response:

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the service did not meet your expectations. We understand your concerns regarding the automatic gratuity and appreciate you bringing this to our attention.

We have eaten here several times. But this day the meat was extremely salty and never did get any other meat except for sirloin steak. No chicken ever. Under cooked meat that was very tough. A waiter that was hard to understand and it was very noisy. The waiter came by maybe twice. The price have definitely increased to almost double a person. I think this is the last birthday for anyone at this place. 

Business response:

We are truly sorry to read about your negative experience, especially on a birthday. We understand your disappointment with the salty and undercooked meat, the lack of variety, the inattentive service, and the noisy atmosphere. We regret that this experience has led you to reconsider celebrating future birthdays with us, and we will be reviewing your feedback with our team to make necessary improvements.

The food tasted amazing but the service was off this time around. Our waiter only came by to deliver our drinks and to ask if we were ready for the check, we didn’t receive any service in between unless we flagged them down, while all the other tables around us were constantly being checked in on. The sides were good but unfortunately we only got one serving of them despite having asked for more. 

Business response:

Thank you for your feedback, Carlos. We are very sorry to hear that the service you experienced on your recent visit was not up to our standards. We are glad you enjoyed the food, but we understand that service is a crucial part of the dining experience. We hope you will consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with the excellent service we are known for.

The service is always 5 star here however the meats tasted very bland today especially the picanha which generally is the best tasting in my opinion, we have been dining here for over a decade and I will give them the benefit of the doubt that they may have had an Off night tonight, but all of the meats were lacking the very tasty seasoning that they are known for. 

Business response:

Thank you for your long-standing patronage and honest feedback. We're delighted you consistently find our service to be 5-star, and we sincerely appreciate you bringing the issue with the meat seasoning to our attention. We understand your disappointment, especially with the picanha, which we pride ourselves on. We hope your next visit reflects the quality you've come to expect from us over the past decade.

It was very congested and quite noisy as the restaurant is very popular. I could not hear my dinner guest, unless I leaned into him and asked him to repeat himself sometimes more than once. The food was excellent, except for the ribs I was served, which were extremely salty. The server was outstanding. They did put us in a corner table, and several of the servers were skipping us, so I had to ask my waitress to assist in directing them towards me and my dinner guest, which I did not like.  she made up for any inconvenience... read more
