Love celebrating my birthday here! The unlimited steaks are we seasoned and so juicy. The buffet is world class. And the gold crusted steak is a new option that just makes this place stand out. The only reason this place is 4 stars instead of 5 is because I felt the drinks I got were poorly made. The liquids were too warm and melted the ice too quick that I felt I just drank a watered down version of whatever cocktail I just drank. But the food here is top notch. Can't wait to go back for my birthday!

The food is perfection! The atmosphere is serene. The staff are friendly and welcoming! The salad bar is immaculate! You HAVE to try this place! A coworker recommended this place for a date night and I highly recommend this place for all occasions!

This place is awesome! Went for lunch right at opening on a weekend and it stayed decently quiet. Probably the best time to come as the service is impeccable and the meats rotate through fairly fast so you're not waiting long for anything. The "salad" bar was fresh and had quiet a bit of options between actual salad, pastas, warm items like soup and roasted potatoes, cheeses and cold cuts, veggies etc. The meats were perfectly cooked, we absolutely loved everything we tried but the 2 lamb items were spectacular. Not just one person took care you, if the meat cutters noticed you had a dirty plate, they'd offer you a clean one. If the manager noticed your waters or drinks empty, they offered to help you themselves. What a great team effort this place has. While pricey at $75 per person it was a wonderful lunch and we will absolutely be back.

Brazilian steakhouses always bring the meat sweats, but Galpão Gaucho in Walnut Creek takes it to another level. From the moment you sit down, the servers keep the skewers coming--perfectly seasoned picanha, juicy lamb chops, and even grilled pineapple that tastes like dessert straight from the grill. The salad bar? A solid variety, but let's be real, I came here to eat enough protein to make my gym trainer proud. But the real showstopper? I took a detour to Golden Steak, where they roll out steaks wrapped in gold like I'm about to sign a record deal. The tableside carving, the glow from the LED-lit cart--it's like dinner and a Vegas show in one. Service at both spots was on point, though if you're here for the experience, Golden Steak adds that extra layer of drama. Either way, if you leave hungry, that's on you.

MEAT, MEAT and more MEAT! Wow - I had not gone to a Brazilian barbecue in a couple years. The last one I went to was in Fresno and it was just OK. Here, we were seated immediately upon our arrival for an 8:30 PM reservation. There were three of us visiting from Stockton. The waitress was super friendly and explained to my sister-in-law who had never been to a Brazilian barbecue how it worked. The girls started off at the salad bar and I dug right into the meat! They give you the red and green square, green signals the waiters that you want meat red is to stop. From the beginning, it was nonstop. The service was excellent, everyone was super friendly, super accommodating, informative, and they were moving fast to get meat on your plate. I started off with chicken hearts, then a slice of the top sirloin, onto the fillet, barbecue beef, garlic beef, picana, chicken breast wrapped in bacon, fillet wrapped in bacon, pineapple, shrimp, sausage, lamb, lamb chop, ribeye, picana wrapped in gold- I couldn't try that, was too full.... Man before I knew it. I had to flip the card to Red to stop this meat madness. Some items I preferred over others, but the quality and the flavor of the meat was top notch. Forget about the salad bar, forget about the sides, which consisted of plantains or bananas, they were actually sweet and grilled, mashed potatoes. They also serve a fantastic chimichurri sauce and another orange sauce, the name of which I fail to remember. The place was nicely decorated with classic white table cloths. It had a great atmosphere and the staff was outstanding. Everyone was moving and working, wanting to serve you more and more. This was a great thing as there was no waiting for anything. It is $75 per person but well worth it. It's something I think I would do once a quarter or for that specual celebration. But Galpao Gaucho put the other Braxilian bbq's to shame. The best, hands down. Go ASAP and get your MEAT on!!!

The meat was non stop! Filet mignon was juicy. The bacon wrapped filet was delicious. The ribeye was yummy. The sides were kept cold and so many choices. Service was excellent. The place was very nice table was crowed very close together but beautiful inside.

I prefer Grand Seiko over Rolex, Porsche 911 over Ferrari and Nordstrom over Neiman Marcus. All high end but one is a tad bit less snobby. That is why I prefer Galpao Gaucho over (insert your bougie steakhouse here). I can eat here on a non-date night and still feel like I won her over. Some of the best meats in the Bay, yet didn't pay some weird Salt Bae dude to act umm weird with salt. Get drinks here every time you come here, their mixologist does it right every fuckn time. I would come here every week if I could but then it would take away some of the magic away from the experience. Go here on an empty stomach and high expectations; you'll dream of this place that night

YUMMY! This place is huge and very lively - things move pretty quickly here so be prepared to jump on any meat that passes by! It's one of these all-you-can-eat Brazilian steakhouses where people come around with different meats and cut you off a piece. Try the golden steak! It's so fun. They also have a pretty good salad bar that you can hit up. The service was really good - there was always someone coming around to check if you wanted anything else and to clean up dirty dishes. They even asked us if there were any particular meats that we were missing so they could send someone over. PS. Although this place has a lot of seating, I'd recommend making a reservation just in case.

Way overdue review! This restaurant has become a must for my birthday celebrations each year! I feel so special when I visit this restaurant. From the host, to the servers and the rest of the staff, everyone is so attententive and make sure you have a great dining experience from start to finish. I love that the ambience has a touch of elegance and romance to it. I love having romantic dinner dates with my husband here. The restaurant has beautiful high cealings and elegant decor. Now let's talk about the food... I love me a good steak but this place made me fall in love with their salmon. They serve it with a delicious creamy sauce and I pair this with a side of their mango salad from their salad bar. They have a variety of cuts available which is great. Servers walk around continuously with different items to offer and you can also make special requests. One of my favorite hot sides here are their cheese breads, they're addicting! And for pineapple lovers such as my husband, don't forget to try their roasted pineapple. My husband probably ate a whole one during our dinner! Now for birthdays, they offer a free dessert that you shouldn't pass on! They're desserts are delicious. In my most recent visit I tried their chocolate lava cake which comes with vanilla ice cream. This was the perfect birthday dessert. I love this place and have no complaints at all!
