Menu
The meats at this restaurant consist of roasted and seasoned cuts of beef, pork, lamb, chicken and Brazilian sausage. The meats are cooked over an open flame grill, a technique which comes from southern Brazil, where employees dressed as gauchos bring meats individually to tables. Texas de Brazil does not serve chicken hearts, often considered a traditional food found at many other churrascarias.Brazilian BarbecueChicken Hearts ‹ Espetus Brazilian Steak House - San Francisco and San Mateo - CA Menu M Grill Churrascaria Brazilian Steakhouse Churrasco BBQ The restaurant also prepares and serves several types of desserts.
