Texas de Brazil is the all-you-can-eat Brazilian churrascaria on Palm Beach — endless tableside-carved meats served by gauchos, a 50–60 item gourmet salad bar, and the kind of dinner where you flip a card from green to red when you can’t eat another bite. Located on the second floor of J.E. Irausquin Blvd 382, it’s the move for big appetites, big groups, and special occasions on the resort strip.

Why Texas de Brazil is worth your reservation

Texas de Brazil’s concept is straightforward and unforgettable: a fixed price gets you unlimited access to a parade of meats — beef, lamb, pork, chicken, and Brazilian sausage — all flame-grilled over natural wood charcoal in the churrasco tradition, then carved tableside on long sword-like skewers by authentically dressed gauchos. As long as your card is flipped to green, the meat keeps coming. When you’ve had enough, flip it to red.

The Aruba location is the only Texas de Brazil outside the US — part of the chain’s international expansion — and it’s earned 4.4 stars across more than 1,000 Google reviews. The dining room features soaring ceilings, immense mirrors, rustic chandeliers, and lush floral arrangements. Two private dining rooms — the Banquet (up to 80 guests) and Lounge (up to 70) — are bookable for celebrations.

What’s included in the fixed-price meal

  • 50–60 item gourmet salad bar — buffalo mozzarella, daily cold pastas, traditional black beans with beef, hearts of palm, salamis, smoked bacon, imported cheeses, charcuterie, fresh artisan breads, soups, roasted vegetables, and more.
  • All-you-can-eat tableside meats — picanha (top sirloin), filet mignon, ribeye, lamb, pork loin, sausage, chicken — all seasoned and slow-roasted over open flame.
  • Complimentary sides — house-baked Brazilian cheese bread (pão de queijo), garlic mashed potatoes, and fried bananas come with every meal.
  • Decadent desserts available a la carte — boxes for leftovers OK only on dessert.
  • Caipirinha cocktail — the signature Brazilian drink, made with cachaça, lime, and sugar.

Vegetarians and vegans are surprisingly well taken care of — the salad area alone has plenty to make a full meal.

What guests are saying

Recent reviews highlight the endless variety of meats (“great spot for meat lovers, food was very good and served hot”), efficient service for large groups, and the celebration-friendly atmosphere. Multiple reviewers specifically name servers like Mateo for repeat visits.

A few caveats worth knowing: the salad bar quality has had inconsistency in some recent reviews; some guests find it overpriced for what is, fundamentally, a chain experience; and portions of meats can vary based on how busy the carvers are. Overall consensus: come hungry, come with a group, and don’t expect fine-dining nuance — expect a fun, lively, all-you-can-eat experience.
