TASTE OF TEXAS RESTAURANT REVIEWS
This was my first time going to Taste Of Texas since my friend wanted to take me. We had Robby for our waiter and he was amazing! He made me feel comfortable and right at home. The food was great and the bread was even better! I got to pick out my cut of steak and took a ton of photos of the decorations around the restaurant. Everyone was dressed up nice and the atmosphere was very elegant and friendly. Very clean, respectable, and organized restaurant all around. I just wish I had room for desert after my very filling steak. Next time I’ll have to eat less bread from the salad bar to have room to try their desert menu
My second time here. California has nothing like this.y daughter just recently moved here and she requested Taste of Texas for her birthday dinner. They did not disappoint. From the time we walked in till our dinner was done the experience was amazing. Highly recommend. The salad and dinner roll bar is a must.
This restaurant is Amazing!! Tina our waitress was professional yet fun. The food was melt in your mouth DELICIOUS. The decor was eye drawing & educational. Taste of Texas is now my new favorite restaurant in all of Houston area!!

STEAK 48 REVIEWS
From the time we walked in the door it was an amazing experience. It was our 26th yr anniversary. Was seated in a private room off the kitchen, great view of desserts being made. Sat down and was handed a special card congratulating our special occasion from the staff. Our waiter Harrison was exceptional. Everything our waiter suggested was spectacular. The food was amazing and the staff was so accommodating. We will definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
My absolute favorite restaurant in Houston!!!! Excellent experience every time. Absolutely delicious food… every item on the menu!!! The best oysters selection in town! Extensive cocktail and wine menu makes everything even better! Ambiance is beautiful, modern and vibrant.
Definitely considered a top steakhouse ! Service , quality and selection is quite good and to be expected. We did some seafood, appetizers, nice wine and steak across the table. Bread is on the house. Sauces for the seafood and steak sides were all quite good. Mushroom and corn! Truffles fries are always a hit. I'd be back to try other cuts! Enjoyed it! Thanks team !

CHAMA GAUCHA REVIEWS
Everything was delicious. We love the Menu selections. The service is excellent, personal and professional. We have never had a bad experience here!
The top Brazilian steakhouse in Houston, in my opinion! All of the staff members here deserve praise. Definitely one of my favorites is the cheese bread. Another dish that was served was fried cheese with honey, which was such a pleasant surprise. In conclusion, I heartily endorse if you enjoy Brazilian steakhouses. You won't be let down.
Love this place. It is a meat lover paradise. The endless parade of different meat ranging from beef, lamb, pork, chicken and shrimp. Their salad bar include lobster bisque and seared ahi tuna along with various vegetables and cheese. the ambiance, service and the quality of the food is worth the price.
