In 1997, Juarez DeConto and Alda Boiani left Brazil and came to Addison, Texas with one purpose: to help introduce the gaucho tradition to America. They spent the next 20 years inside that kitchen, that dining room, that culture — learning what it means to make a guest feel genuinely at home far from their own.
Then in 2019, quietly and without fanfare, they opened something of their own. Not a concept. Not a brand exercise. Just a single dining room on Dallas Parkway where they could do things their way — with the cuts they believe in, the hospitality they grew up with, and the kind of personal attention that only happens when the owners are there.
"We came here to offer authentic Brazilian cuisine and gaucho experiences to North Texans with the highest quality meats, vegetables and customer service. The most important thing to us is our customers." — Alda Boiani, Co-Founder & CEO
"The owner came and talked to us, which is something I had never experienced before. For the price, it is a wonderful steakhouse." — Tripadvisor guest — 5 stars
The green card sits at your table. When you're ready, you turn it over and the gauchos begin. Skewer after skewer arrives — picanha rock-salted and fire-roasted, filet mignon carved to your preference, lamb, sausage, and seasonal cuts that rotate with what's best. You eat at your own pace. No one rushes you. The salad bar is restocked quietly throughout the meal. When the grilled pineapple comes around, it's worth saving room for.
It is, in the best possible way, the kind of meal that makes you forget what time it is.
"Absolutely the best Brazilian steakhouse I have ever been to. The meat was cooked to perfection. At one point I made an offhand remark and the waiter walking by heard and brought it right back." — OpenTable verified diner — 5 stars

Real fire sets the mood before the first slice reaches your plate with a confident glow. We keep things simple and honest, and the flavor follows that same steady path. At 12 Cuts Brazilian Steakhouse, we fire-roast our premium meats with care and precision. This choice reflects our values of quality, authenticity, and gracious hospitality for every guest. Fans want to know how the flame changes the final bite, and the proof is clear. The heat moves with life, sealing juices while lifting clean, natural aromas from each cut. Every plate showcases craft, patience, and respect for the ingredients at their best. When people compare open flame vs. charcoal, our answer arrives in every savory and tender slice.
Our method originates from the gaucho tradition, where cooks would tend meat over open flames in the open countryside. They relied on steady heat, clean fuel, and close attention, rather than relying on gadgets or shortcuts from a bag. We honor that heritage in Dallas with a premium, modern touch that feels warm and genuine. The flame surrounds each cut, forming a crisp crust while keeping the center juicy and delicate. It keeps the true character of picanha, ribeye, or lamb front and center for your palate. Charcoal can add a strong smoke flavor, yet it may cover the quality you came here to enjoy. We prefer clarity, balance, and the honest voice of fine beef with thoughtful seasoning. This is true churrascaria service with Brazilian roots and standards shaped for today's guest.
Excellent service means you can trust every plate, not only the best one of the night. Our fire-roasting process allows our chefs to guide heat with precision for even and reliable results. That control supports our continuous tableside service, where timing shapes each vivid and memorable moment. With a steady flame, the crust forms fast, and the juices remain exactly where they belong. The flavor stays bright and clean, ready for balanced pairings from our curated wine selection. Guests notice how each cut retains its texture and taste throughout the entire dining experience. There is no guesswork, only thoughtful technique that respects premium ingredients and your time. Consistent excellence turns a celebration into something natural, which is how we love to host.
Dining here should feel special, whether for a date, a family milestone, or a business dinner. Fire roasting highlights the honest flavor of each cut, so your choices stay easy and rewarding. Our gaucho carvers guide your meal with friendly insight and smooth, attentive tableside care. You can enjoy conversation, and we handle the rhythm of the experience with calm confidence. The salad bar adds fresh color and lively balance that complements each warm and savory slice. The result is a premium experience that feels relaxed, shaped by true hospitality and craft. It is an authentic taste of Brazil, served with Dallas warmth and modern elegance throughout. When you weigh open flame vs. charcoal, the flame speaks for itself at every single table.
Great meals bring people together, and a real flame brings great meals to life with heart. At 12 Cuts Brazilian Steakhouse, every detail reflects care, from the first greeting to the last graceful pour. Our team takes pride in delivering service that feels personal, polished, and welcoming all at once. If you want to celebrate a milestone or plan a private event, our coordinators make it simple. Book a table today and experience churrasco as it should be, bright and honest with every bite. Reserve your spot online and discover our wine pairings that perfectly complement your favorite cut. Join us in Dallas and enjoy a dining tradition that values purity, precision, and joy. For anyone curious about open flame vs. charcoal, your answer awaits with every slice we carve.
