text: After giving up on the staff at Joes Crab Shack for my fathers birthday dinner for some reason he likes it there why I do not know my family settled on trying Texas de Brazil based on some initial feedback we had received from a friend and the sheer smell of meat radiating across the plaza The wife and I had an OK previous experience at Green Forest but unfortunately Texas de Brazil left us rather dissatisfied with the entire eveningnnFollowing a rather disorganized seating process the hostess more or less insisted we head to the bar to wait but no sooner did we get there and attempt to order drinks two separate servers tried to come seat us we were sat at a table We waited an easy minutes before anyone even came to the tablennOnce our server arrived he more or less just said to go grab our food we still had not received water at this point at which time we interjected that two of our guests would be getting the lite dinner option which he immediately became disgruntled and attempted to insist that they get the full dinner go figure the meals were cheapernnThroughout the evening we only received one refill on water even though our glasses were consistently empty Also while it seemed there were a wide variety of meats to be enjoyed the same options kept being brought to the table on our way out I noticed different meats that never even made it to our table to try In addition the cheese bread potatoes and bananas all went unreplenished once the first set was eatennnAfter a certain point we simply decided we wanted to cut our losses and leave the restaurant but we could not as the server could not be found to ask for the check we had to ask a gaucho to find him for us The final straw in our experience was the fact that we were charged gratuity for what has been the worse service we have received year to date in PittsburghnnThis is why I do not let family pick restaurants for celebratory dinners For the taxgratuity per person that we had to drop on this bucket I could of easily taken them to any of the bestinclass joints the burgh has to offer What a waste
