At a place known for fire-roasted meats, most guests don't expect to fall in love with the salad bar. But at 12 Cuts Brazilian Steakhouse in Dallas, we like breaking expectations—especially when it comes to freshness. Our salad bar isn't just a side option. It's a full experience with unlimited access to crisp organic greens, fresh fruits, vibrant vegetables, and house-made dressings that tie everything together. It's colorful, refreshing, and unexpectedly satisfying from the first bite. Whether you're building a light starter or going all in before the meat arrives, it sets the tone for the meal. The flavors are clean, the textures are bright, and nothing feels like an afterthought. This is the salad bar experience you didn't expect at a Steakhouse, and it's worth every bite.

Freshness That Goes Beyond the Basics

Each item on our salad bar has quality and freshness in mind, which you can taste. The organic greens stay crisp, the fruit is naturally sweet, and the vegetables deliver a bold texture with every bite. You can fill your plate with color and know that every ingredient has been chosen with care. From juicy cherry tomatoes to bright cucumbers and the occasional surprise like fresh pineapple or roasted beets, the options are far from standard. Our in-house dressings complement—not hide—the natural flavors of everything you pick. A little drizzle is all it takes to bring the whole plate together. When guests taste the balance of clean ingredients with bold flavor, they often return for more. It's a fresh start to a fire-roasted feast.

A Refreshing Balance to Churrasco

Our signature meats are rich, tender, and full of fire-roasted flavor—but they shine even more with a fresh counterpoint. The salad bar brings balance to the plate, giving you cool, crisp bites between bold, savory cuts. It's not just about cleansing your palate but enhancing every part of your meal. A bite of grilled lamb followed by chilled greens feels like a natural rhythm. That back-and-forth makes the whole experience more exciting and satisfying. Guests often build plates that reflect the wide variety of options available, creating their own combinations with each visit. While the meats are served at your table, the salad bar puts the power in your hands. You get to craft your own start to the meal, and there's no wrong way to do it.

Where Light Meets Flavor

There's a reason the salad bar keeps surprising people—it actually delivers on flavor and doesn't feel like filler. Even guests who walk in ready to skip straight to steak often find themselves pausing in front of the greens. Each forkful feels fresh and intentional, not just tossed together for looks. And because you can go back as many times as you like, it's easy to try new combinations with each round. The house-made dressings help seal the deal. You don't have to choose between healthy and flavorful—you get both right at the start of your churrascaria experience.

At 12 Cuts Brazilian Steakhouse, we're proud of every skewer, but we're just as proud of what comes before it. Guests come expecting steak and leave, talking about the bold start to their meal. With organic ingredients, vibrant variety, and unlimited access, it's clear why people are pleasantly surprised. It's fresh, it's flavorful, and it sets the pace for everything that follows.
