Yes. Had my birthday dinner there last year.

It was okay. I've definitely been to better gaucho-style establishments before. The meat at Picanha was VERY salty, as well.

Been there a few times. If you are a meat person you will love it. The little garlic puffs are good too!!! I particularily dont care for it because I get so full from eating all that meat and then I dont feel so well, if you know what i mean. If you have never been, you should try it.

Oh and the other thing was that they rarely brought around the good meat that they advertised. We had to ask three times for them to bring out the filet-mignon that the hostess had talked up for fifteen minutes prior to us getting seated.

I like it but I do like Gauchos Village in Glendale a bit more. The food is about the same price but the atmosphere in Gauchos is better and personally I think the food is better as well.

The one in Palm Desert is awesome. We had to put up the chips to say no more meat because they were on us like white on rice with the good stuff. had to be rolled out of that place.

To wrap a nice ribbon on this thread:

We went to the Burbank location last night. For two of us we dropped about $100.00 (2 dinners @ $27.95 each, a pitcher of fake sangria {the waiter had it made special with lemons, limes and whatever} @ $24.00, 1 order of flan @ $6.50 {delicious} and tip @ $10.00 {waiter gave me a price of $18.00 for the sangria and I was too ****ed up to argue about it}).

It was worth it for the dining experience and the food was above average (especially the house steak) but I don't see going back there again.

Green Field does kick ass but they too skimp on the bacon wrapped chicken...that shizzle is addictive. There is another place in Torrance in Old Town that is kinda ghetto but really good too.

My favorite Brazilian place in in Santa Clara and run by a guy named Joao...It has like won all these awards and been around forever

You can do two things to make anything edible:

1) Wrap it in bacon

and

2) Deep fry it

I'd eat a snow-tire if it were bacon-wrapped and deep fried.
