From the Moment You Arrive

After being seated, your server will walk you through how the all you can eat Brazilian steakhouse experience at Estância works and guide you through your options, including the full churrasco experience, salad bar only, available specials or deals, and à la carte selections at our Leander location.
There is no pressure to decide everything upfront. The experience unfolds at your pace.
The Gourmet Salad Bar
Guests are invited to begin with the gourmet salad bar.
At Estância, this part of the all you can eat Brazilian steakhouse experience offers a wide selection of fresh vegetables, seasonal dishes, Brazilian specialties, and hot items.
You can start light or explore a variety of options before moving into the main experience.
Complimentary Sides Served Throughout the Meal
As part of the all you can eat Brazilian steakhouse experience at Estância, traditional sides are served directly to your table throughout the meal, similar to bread service at many American steakhouses.
These include:
Brazilian cheese bread
Crispy polenta
Mashed potatoes
Caramelized banana
These additions complement the meats and help create a more complete and balanced experience.
Continuous Tableside Service
The defining element of the experience is the continuous tableside service.
Gauchos move through the dining room offering a variety of fire roasted cuts, carving directly at your table. You can try different selections, revisit favorites, and enjoy the meal without needing to reorder.
Each table is also provided with a card that allows you to control the pace of service. When the card is turned to green, gauchos will continue to bring selections to your table. When turned to red, service pauses until you are ready to continue.
This allows you to enjoy the experience at your own pace without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
The experience flows without interruption, creating a rhythm that keeps the table engaged.
More Than Just “All You Can Eat”
The phrase “all you can eat” can feel casual, but this experience is structured very differently.
This is not a buffet and not a fixed menu.
For guests who enjoy BBQ or grilled meats, a Brazilian steakhouse offers a different way to experience them. Instead of ordering a single plate, a variety of fire roasted cuts are brought directly to your table throughout the meal.
There is no interruption, no need to reorder, and no limitation to a single selection.
At Estância, the experience is built around the table rather than the menu.
This creates a dining experience that feels more complete, more engaging, and better suited for gatherings where the focus is on time together.

At Estância, servers may pass by with a rolling bar cart offering alcoholic drinks, allowing you to order without leaving your table.

These elements create a more elevated and engaging experience beyond a traditional dinner.
