Has anybody ever dined at Via Brasil Steakhouse?

This was on Mystery Diners.

This place is not for vegans or vegetarians.

They bring skewers of beef, pork, etc. to your table and carve it right there. It is all you can eat, which I usually don't like. However it looks like you get pieces served that include the seared outside of the meat, which is usually more flavorful.

The price is $39.99 per person, which seems like a bargain considering what you get.

Are refering to "Texas de Brazil" in Town Square, Las Vegas ?

No.

The actual name is Via Brasil Steakhouse. It is located at 1225 S Fort Apache Rd.

Here is the link.

[EDIT] It looks like Texas de Brazil is a similar type of restaurant.

Never dined at that one but I've dined at a Brazillian steakhouse before. It's absolutely not for any vegans, they'd probably puke with all the meat floating around and the huge firepit of death where they keep throwing fresh meat on the grill.
It's pretty cool and really simple-upon being seated you're given a card or placard that's red on one side and green on the other, when you want more meat flip it to the green side. There's a group of roving guys with these huge skewers who will come put all the meat you desire on your plate, different guys have different cuts.

This is the experience we had at the one we went to here in No Va. I loved it but I'm a huge carnivore.

These Brazillian steakhouses are all over Las Vegas.

On the strip is Samba at Mirage, Pampas at Planet Hollywood, Texas De Brazil at Town Square, Yolies and Fogo De Chao both just off the strip. There are also others located in different parts of the city.

Texas De Brazil and Fogo De Chao are the two that seem to get the best ratings.

Usually when i'm in vegas and i do a BBQ Brasil i go for Fogo De Chao which is the most expensive of the three but the BEST quality meats around! We have one also in Beverly Hills i go about 3 times a year and it's hands down the BEST Fogo De Chao. The second would be Texas De Brasil then the rest are just junk.
