We came back here in 2020 after a great experience last year. Not as good this time. They made a change to recipe and now the mashed potatoes aren’t GF anymore. The waitress didn’t know and told us at first they were ok. The manager had to rush over after she asked him to double check. The meats remain tasty and GF. The service on this night wasn’t great.

Original review from 2019 Terrific food. As others have noted, all the meats are gluten free and the staff takes care to show you what is safe on the salad bar. I took one star away, though, because none of the salad dressings were gluten free, which really limited the salad bar options

I've been eating at this place in Utah for yrs and was really excited to find one here. It is slightly different with covid restrictions but still so worth it.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The majority of the menu is gluten free. Only meat option that has gluten is the sausage. Such good cheese bread!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free cheese bread, Jasmine rice, and fried banana. Gluten free creme brulee. It was awesome!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The food here was terrible and overpriced! With the facade of a fancy restaurant, they served canned beans, bland cheese, and raw vegetables. Definitely not vegetarian friendly, but they have a lot of meat —which we didn’t try because the salad buffet was terrible so we didn’t feel like paying double to eat meat. There are gluten free options, but the food is simply not worth paying for. I don’t understand the hype at all!!

Great place for gluten free! If you ask, they have an allergen list. The meats are all gluten free, and many things at the buffet (salad, potato salad, tomatoes, rice, and a TON of other options) are also gluten free. I’d definitely ask for the sheet of gluten vs non gluten free foods to get specifics but there are many options (although less so for vegetarian). I ate twice here since it was close by and did not get sick either time! Lunch is cheaper than dinner but the selection of meats is slightly different and more limited, but it was still great!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great food, parts of salad bar our unsafe but manager immediately let me know everything I could eat. Totally recommend.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Had a great experience. I am Very sensitive to cross contamination and did not get sick! Very celiac friendly cooking process.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Meats are gluten free and most of the salad bar is also. Last year when we went here the manager walked me through everything they offer to let me know what I could safely enjoy. Tonight when we went back there, I informed the waitress I cannot have gluten, and she proceeded to bring things out. At the end of the meal after watching me eat the whole dish of mashed potatoes she informed me that they were not gluten free although they were in the past. I'm currently sitting in bed with a reaction on my anniversary. Very inconsistent here. Be careful.

Celiac friendly?

No

I have eaten here several times. Most of the salad bar is gluten free. The chef will come out and walk you around to tell you what is safe and what is not. The meats are all gluten free.

The staff was very knowledgeable. I talked to the manager. She said that she used to have a server that had celiac and would eat the Brazilian bread all the time. It was really good. And the Pincanha steak was so yummy! There are a couple of side dishes that have gluten so it’s not 100% gf. I would definitely go again

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The manager was so helpful. He walked me through the buffet line to describe what I could eat. Service was great! They even offer a discount for teachers, police officers and EMTs. I will definitely go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Celiac friend was pleased with the experience.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Awesome! All meat was gluten free and the cheese buns are gluten free and delicious. Fabulous meal!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I ate there and it was delicious. Didn’t get glutened. However, the staff did not walk me through the salad bar. My waitress gave me a sheet of the GF options but the salad bar items were not labeled. A manager went through the salad bar with me once I asked.

The tabbouleh contains gluten and it was next to the GF mozzarella balls. I found pieces of tabbouleh in the mozzarella for example. I’m a new Celiac so I’m sure this is very common.

The meat is GF and the fried bananas and cheese bread. I ate a lot of those ;)

Ask the manager to walk you through the bar, they are EXTREMELY knowledgable about celiac and cross contamination. I was able to eat the bread which was my favorite part!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

5 Star service, friendly knowledgable staff, individual attention to allergies for celiac. The food was delicious, service outstanding !!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Manager walks you around the salad bar and lets you know what is safe and what isn’t. The Brazilian cheese bread is great! All meat is safe. Fun atmosphere.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This restaurant was such a delightful surprise! All meats gluten free and the salad bar was phenomenal. Salad dressings gluten free. Manager walked me through gluten containing items. Mashed potatoes were not gluten free but bread and bananas were. Even had 3 gluten free desserts.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

First time at this location. Third time at a Texas de Brazil overall. Always a good experience. All the meats are gluten free. Most of the salad bar is. The cheese bread roll things they bring to everyone's table are gluten free. The manager and our waiter checked a few items with the executive chef (fancy title!) to confirm they were gluten free. They have a few desserts, too. Crème brulé, passion fruit ice cream, and Carmel flan. Check out their website. Pretty sure it's listed there. Delicious food. Always leave stuffed!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff will give you a personalized tour of the salad bar and tell you what foods you need to avoid. Staff very knowledgeable about gluten. Large amount of food available that is gluten free.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Would totally recommend this place! They are very knowledgeable and if you ask them, you can get extra wishes. So I just asked to get the Potato Casserole without the sauce, so just fried potatoes and they pulled it of no questions asked. They also have several GF desserts (flan, crème brulée etc).

Celiac friendly?

Yes

All the meat is gluten free. If you need more information than that, you shouldn't go here. It's $70 or more per person, so go hungry and don't worry about any of the sides. The meat is delicious, so I imagine the other food is, but I don't know because I've only eaten the meat, as should you.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I usually save 5 stars for dedicated GF restaurants but I'm making an exception. The manager told me they try to make it easy for GF patrons to eat there as he escorted me around the salad bar and told me just what I could and couldn't have. There were a handful of items on the salad/charcuterie bar that weren't GF, and only one side dish was GF. The mashed potatoes that came with the meal experience were not GF but the bread was fresh Brazi Bites that were amazing. ALL of the meats (15 meats are brought to your table) were GF. It's so nice to have a place to go for a nice occasion that gives more than a couple of choices and that I can be confident I won't get sick from. I can't wait to go back.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Their food is incredible! The Manager will walk you around their huge salad bar to show you what is safe to eat. Almost all the meats are GF as well! Bring your appetite as it’s all you can eat. Well worth the price!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Unreal. Almost all is GF including cheese bread. Three GF desserts too!! Our waiter gave me a GF tour so I would know exactly what I could eat! Amazing and worth the money!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They tell you that the meat is gluten-free however I got really sick. I just eat the meat, I think the put some sauce that contain gluten or there is a contamination some where

Celiac friendly?

No

This place is awesome!! Once you tell them you have allergies, they give you a paper with all allergies and a list of their food and let you know if it has dairy or gluten. This way you can eat only what you can. The food was amazing! If your celiac and Dairy free like me this is a good place.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Fantastic Brazilian style steakhouse/buffet. Most of the items (including the cheese bread) is gluten free!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Amazing. The server walked me through the salad bar for safe options. Basically the hot stuff on the salad bar is not safe but I wouldn’t waste the space in my stomach when the meat is so awesome. The GF bread is really good but don’t each too much. Safe space for the meat.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The manger himself walked me through the sides/ salad area to identify which items were GF. All meat is prepared GF

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Texas de Brazil has a lot of gluten free options and a nice atmosphere. When I arrived, I explained my gluten free needs and the manager took me around and showed me all the gluten free items on their salad bar. In addition, all of the meats that are brought to the table are gluten free and the bread balls brought to the table are also gluten free (made from Yuca flour). The meal was delicious and it was nice being able to eat what everyone else was eating - and a lot of it. I left full and satisfied. They had creme brûlée for dessert that was just ok. $$$

Amazing experience here! Cheese bread was gluten free and they brought out an allergy list. All the meats were gluten free and most of the salad bar. Great service and great food.

No GF menu, but manager came to my table to discuss the food. He took me on a walk around the salad bar and pointed out what had gluten. All meats are GF and there’s a gf cheesy bread too. Great service, delicious food.

The food is excellent. But last time I was here the manager assured me that all the sides were gf. This time, the manager says the potatoes aren't. That kind of inconsistency makes this a place I don't trust anymore.

Celiac friendly?

No

Very knowledgeable staff! :) they were super kind and accommodating. They even got me a delicious creme brulee because it was my anniversary. I ate the meats, rolls, and bananas as well. I ignore the salad bar because you get so much food without it and I don't want to risk cross contamination. It is a fun dining experience and very safe for celiacs because I am a super sensitive. 10/10

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This restaurant is fantastic! Make sure to reserve a table ahead of time through OpenTable App or by calling them because it can get quite busy. Once you're seated, let the waitress know you have a gluten intolerance. A manager will come out and show you which foods at the salad bar you can eat. He'll then explain which meats you can have. The manager & staff is very knowledgeable!

BACKGROUND on the restaurant: this is a high end steak house. They continually serve you with different meats and there's an unbelievably delicious salad bar that comes with with the meal. It's $50/person, before drinks and desert, but it's all you can eat and incredibly good food. Come hungry!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Chef card out and walked me through the salad bar. All the meats are gf, as are the rolls, white rice and beans. Lots of salad and veggie options as well

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great dinner, very knowledgeable. Manager personally met with us and showed what was safe and what was not. Expensive but a wonderful dining experience.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

All their meats are gf! They also have house brand Pinot Noir, sides, and cheese rolls that are fine!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The manager came out and spoke to us. We had a delicious meal, bread and dessert. Great experience.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Very knowledgeable! All the meat was GF and a large amount of the salads/buffet bar were too. A bit questionable about buffet bar since it wasn’t in separate areas but mostly stuck to the meat & had no problems!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely fabulous. The meat was unreal. Everything on our table tasted great. Plus gluten free BREAD?!? I read reviews where people said the bread isn't gf and i swear it is. I asked the manager who took me around the restaurant and said what i could and could not eat. She said the bread is made of starch (i read somewhere that it is tapioca starch). The bananas were so good i ate maybe 4 of them lol. My boyfriend said we should go back tomorrow so it is definitely carnivore man approved. ;) Be prepared to spend some money ($100+) but the experience is well worth it. If you are a sensitive celiac like me no need to fear here. You can't eat the mashed potatoes they serve at the table and some things at the salad bar. I just avoided the salad bar completely and loaded up on meat, bread, and bananas.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I have successfully enjoyed dinner here 3 times without any issues. I would say it is very Celiac friendly.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We went here for our anniversary. The food was good as normal, except, the cheese bread is no longer gluten free. Such a disappointment! I loved going somewhere where I could have bread. I hope corporate reconsiders this horrible decision!

I had a great experience. Very educated staff and manager even stopped by to confirm.

As of early 2018, their bread rolls are no longer gluten free and we weren't told until we directly asked. Please be careful and ask about everything. We come here annually and were quite surprised of the change.

Excellent food- excellent service. My wife is very sensitive and we both enjoy eating here.
