This place is amazing. Succulent selection of meats cooked to perfection. The lamb is absolutely amazing. Salad bar is very extensive. The food is very fresh and flavorful.

Looove it! I am a true meat eater and this place was great. The servers are very attentive and the salad bar is nice, but don't over do it (the meat is coming). I do recommend going early in the dinner service. Going later may lead to getting the less fresh or well done meat. Oh, the cheese bread. It... More

You always think of meat at a Brazilian Steakhouse, but Chama has an eceptional salad bar. Don't overdo it though or you will regret not saving room for the perfectly prepared meat. Also, do not overdo the cheese rolls that I can eat like candy. My favorite meat selections are their lamb chops that melt in your mouth and ribeye... More

If you want to eat a lot of meat, that is your place ! The rest is a self service buffet. The food quality is good, the overall atmosphere average.

Great place. Service was very good and meat were delicious. My favorite is the fillet and lamb leg. They had overcooked the lamb chops :(. Salad bar is pretty good, lots of choices but the quality and tastes were not consistent. Some were very good, the others didnt seem like it was fresh. Papaya creme for dessert is highly recommended.

We love this restaurant. The customer experience is fantastic. The staff is over the top in anticipating your every need. You never lack for attention but not in an annoying way. The cheese rolls are to die for and the salad bar is my favorite -so fresh. They have 14 different types of meat -chicken, sausage, pork, 2 kinds of... More

I say "Best Brazilian Steakhouse in town but I'll be honest, they're not that much better than Fogo or Tradicao... I gave them the title best simply because I like the ambiance there and I think they have the best cheese bread! All in all though you can't go wrong with either Brazilian steakhouses that are located in Houston as... More

The quality of the meats and poultry served is a step above Fogo de Chou. Their did not seem to be as much variety of meats as Fago, but the quality. The sausages were outstanding. Of course the salad bar is always an experience. Great Service!
