Brasa South American Steakhouse

Our group of 4 visited without a reservation and the staff kindly fit us in. Unfortunately for one of our party they did not have any gout-friendly entrees so he went vegetarian for the night. Staff was friendly and courteous, but food service was a tad slow. Seems like a place designed for ordering many small items and having them trickle in throughout the night. Side dishes were tasty, but main entrees fell short for the price. Dry burger, tiny portions of steak, and bones in the fish. If you're looking to impress a date with your wallet this could be the perfect place for a relatively quiet meal.

This is hands down the best ceviche’ I have ever had. The drinks were top tier flavor. Excellent bar tender. The waiter was very knowledgeable. Service was EXCELLENT! The food was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. I added crab meat on top of my entree’. Absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend this place 10 out of 10.😀

Best ceviche I've ever experienced... This alone is worth the visit! Delicious cocktails, melt in your mouth steak, and a sommelier who passion for wine is simply infectious. We shared sides of carrots, parmesian fries, and a giant roasted cauliflower. Highly recommend!

We have eaten at the Brasa South American Steakhouse in Métairie several times in the past and were thrilled to see the location open at Canal Place. We were not disappointed, the food and service is every bit as good. We had a wonderful evening with great food and service. We are so happy to have a great place within walking distance.

Tried the new Brasa location this weekend and it was phenomenal! I thoroughly enjoy Chef Edgar Caro’s restaurants so I knew this one would be a hit. The location is stunning, the cocktails were delicious, and everything we tried was fantastic! The design of the restaurant is top notch. The private rooms offer a gorgeous view of Canal Street, which would be great for any event. Can’t wait to go back!

If you are looking for a unique dining experience in NOLA this is indeed the place to get it! At first glance, the restaurant is very unique and has a great atmosphere. The decor was beautiful and the staff were beyond accommodating. The food was great! I got the Caesar salad, brisket Mack and cheese, and corn. My friend got the whole fish. We literally cleaned our plates leaving minimal appetite for dessert. The salad was indeed flavorful and a nice size for a starter dish. The brisket Mac and cheese should really be called a Brisket noodle casserole. It was GOOD. But, not what my mind imagined “Mac and cheese” would be. It is a hearty and filling size. Full of brisket and noodles. The corn was GOOD. A pleasant surprise was when the server brought the corn out and cut it off the cob right at the table! Indeed a nice touch. Cons: The lights did keep dimming/flickering randomly throughout the entire meal. Slightly vexing but no reason to not come and enjoy what this restaurant has to offer. The chairs, although very stylish and trendy were not the most comfortable. I am a tall person and I just felt like I could not get fully settled in the unique curvature of the seats. Again, Slightly vexing but no reason to not come and enjoy what this restaurant has to offer.

Absolutely loved everything. The food, cocktails, ambiance… 10/10! Steak was amazing, and the sides and appetizers - could eat one of every single thing. Don’t miss the ceviche, roasted cauliflower, carrots, or potatoes au gratin! Everything was so fresh and flavorful from the cocktails to the meal and even desserts. Added bonus- gorgeous city views! Can’t wait to go back.

Maybe if you wanted this kind of vibe it would be good, but personally I found it to be too expensive for a mediocre dining experience. The plates were boring,- having only exactly what you were promised- the food was fine but nothing to write home about and the waitress made repeated comments about us being difficult despite our incredible grace. Overall, I won’t be going back.

Let me start off by saying, I loveddd Brasa. It was an exceptional experience. From the entrance being its own lobby that you take up an elevator to the main entrance of the restaurant to the food and service. I want to start off with the Au gratin potatoes. They were cheesy, and cooked to perfection. Not too hard or mushy or anything. The Wagyu empanadas were to die for with the chimichurri sauce. We were told by our waitress that Chef Edgar's mother makes them personally. Which is interesting to know. The Picanha steak was really the high light of the evening. I had it medium well, and topped it with a bit of salt and some of the sauce that was provided. I loved it. It was sliced to perfection. Fell apart in my mouth each bite. Lastly, my least favorite was the califlor. It lacked much flavor. It was all over the place for me. Sweet, zesty, fresh, unflavored, etc... 4/10... I added some salt to make it a bit tastier. I enjoyed 1 cocktail which was the porn star martini. It was light, and beautifully placed. Saying all that to say, I will be returning.

If you haven't heard... @chefedgarcaro and @antonio_mata have recently opened up this beautiful new Steak House in @canalplacestyle The place is gorgeous and the food is even more delicious. The flavors that chef has incorporated into each dish from his homeland of Colombia is just . Did you know they dry age each steak in a Himalayan salt chamber and it makes all the difference. And Y'all the empanadas are made by @chefedgarcaro Mom. You can't get any better than that! I am already looking forward to going back soon.

I had heard many positive reviews about Brasa and was excited to have some time today to enjoy lunch at this incredible restaurant. They have a great executive lunch special that's only $29 with many great offerings and the meal includes a soup or salad. My soup was the perfect temperature and tasted great - broccoli, bacon and cheddar. I also had what must have been nearly a full pound burger as I was full after eating just half. I asked for it medium rare and it was cooked exactly medium rare - most chefs are a bit scared and overcook it. The wagyu burger was insane - memorable - worth the calories. The restaurant was truly beautiful and the waiter was super kind, attentive, and I could tell he was just a really great guy. I was fortunate to be there when they weren't packed, usually the weekend evenings bring a crowd. Today was a nice break and a glorious meal in the city.

Super nice restaurant! We stumbled across this place on a trip to New Orleans while we were at the mall. The inside is pretty elegant and nice. During the time we visited, it was lunch time. They have a menu just for lunch with items like lobster rolls, salads and sandwiches. I ordered the 2 for 29 lunch special with a house salad and grilled chicken sandwich with fries. The food was delicious. A nice thick sandwich with slaw on it and a nicely dressed salad with half an avocado on top. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is visiting the area

What an amazing meal! Very pretty ambiance-loved the lighting. Australian Wagyu was the most delicious choice! It was served with two different green/red dipping sauces (the spicier one , red, was the best) and we ordered the sautéed mushrooms which were plentiful and a beet salad, also plentiful and very fresh ingredients! Our dessert was a 24 k gold cocoa bean mousse that was almost too pretty to eat-but of course we did!!

Welcome to the neighborhood. Love their happy hour, M-T from 3-6p just enough time to live it up at mall and drink to that!

My husband, two of our friends , and myself went to Brasa for my birthday last Saturday night. We checked in at the host stand and were greeted by John McIntyre the GM on our way to have a drink at the bar. He was very welcoming! We had a quick cocktail at the bar before heading to our table. The bartender was knowledgable and the cocktails were delicious. We were greeted promptly after being seated at our table by our server Aleisha. Aleisha was wonderful and attentive throughout our meal. The GM John also made it a point to check on us throughout the meal. He sent us over some very delicious desserts for my birthday at the end of our meal. The food was top notch, the atmosphere was great, and the service and management team were some of the best. We can not wait to go back!

I was so excited to try this place but my experience left my underwhelmed. I'll start with what I did enjoy which was the margarita. It comes with an egg white froth which I've never had with a margarita before and that was a great touch. I originally asked the server to help me decide between the entrana and the entrana gruesa steaks. He told me that I should get neither and I should get the picanha steak which is wagyu. I took his recommendation and ordered it medium. I also ordered the short rib Mac and cheese as my side. When the food came out they were getting everyone mixed up and causing a little confusion so when I saw my steak looking very much not medium I was hoping they gave me the wrong order. They claimed it was mine but it was 100% overcooked. I didn't feel like waiting for a new one so I just ate it. Very unimpressed and the wagyu was super tough. The macaroni was okay. I had to ask for salt because it was bland and I also can't guarantee there was any short rib in it. But yeah, it's no where I'll be running back to. Side note, my friend got the entrana and it was so much better than the picanha I let the server talk me in to :(

Everything was fantastic! Our server Fernanda was on top of it. We had a table of 7 ladies for a birthday dinner. The host that sat us was very informative. Showing us the salt chamber the meat awaits and also the large variety of wine selections. The dining room was pretty full and the two private rooms that I could see both had parties in them. Our service was seamless. We ordered cocktails, spicy margaritas, lemon drop martinis, but the star of the show was the signature Porn Star Martini. I enjoyed two of those for the evening. We started with the tuna ceviche (DELICIOUS) and Wagyu empanadas (highly recommend!). We ordered the short rib Mac n cheese. It was tasty and cheesy but I would have loved more of the short rib. The mashed potato's were very smooth and creamy. We had the tomahawk for the table medium and also a skirt steak option as well as the chicken / el pollo. The birthday dessert was covered a golden coated chocolate shell with a mousse inside. Absolutely looking forward to going back and trying more of the menu like the seafood tower and a few other things that caught my eye.

I took my daughter here for her 23rd birthday, it was a good choice. We were visiting from California and trying to decide on a place for a "pre" birthday dinner, it was a good choice. Alicia was our server and Mauricio was the sommelier; these two should work together always! The food was good and the wine paired excellently. If you're in town, go see them.

The ambiance of this restaurant is impeccable but the service and food quickly put our visit on a nosedive. Our waitress pored water on my phone when pouring us water. Some guy who appeared to be the manager carried an audible conversation with the patrons next to us that was very distracting during the dinner service. The picanha was suggested to me and ordered medium. There wasn't a hint of pink and it didn't not taste of a wagyu caliber. We tried the empanada, au gratin and short rib Mac and cheese while were all edible but not outstanding. Vibes are top tier but the rest did not deliver.

From the moment we entered, Justin gave a wonderful overview of the wines, dry-aged meats and the restaurant in general. The sommelier was on point with his Argentinian wine recommendation. TUNA CEVICHE Yellowfin Tuna, Avocado, Watermelon, Red Onion, Leche de Tigre, Plantain Chips was wonderful as well as the beet and goat cheese salad (REMOLACHA Pickled Beets, Arugula, Candied Pecans, Goat Cheese Croquetas, Thyme Aderezo) presentations were beautiful!!! Our entrees :PESCADO Grilled Whole Fish, Lemon & Thyme ---cooked to perfection and so very flavorful. OJODE BIFE 16 oz Linz Heritage Angus Ribeye, 30-day Dry Aged In-House----this steaks flavor was absolutely perfect! I highly recommend this side dish: COLIFLOR Roasted Cauliflower, Spiced Almonds, Feta Crema, Pesto Overall, the service was exceptional, the atmosphere was wonderfully inviting as well. 100% recommend trying Brasa when in New Orleans!

Came in and enjoyed a tasty pisco sour while my partner had the zero proof cocktail made by Luke, the bartender. Luke was knowledgeable on the menu and extremely personable. The bars ambiance was moody and pleasant for our evening out. Will definitely be back.

Made reservations for my wife's birthday and didn't disappoint. We arrived and were given a tour of the restaurant before being seated. Everyone in the front of house stopped and introduced themselves and wished a happy birthday. The cocktails were wonderful kudos to Joe. Lawson was a fantastic server and very attentive. Steaks were melt in your mouth. The carrots & goat cheese, empanadas, and marinated white anchovies are a must. Special shout out to John the GM and his staff for making this a phenomenal dining experience.

Ok! Easter Brunch at the New at Brassa Steakhouse NOLA, under the Incredible Chef Edgar Caro was Next Level! We started off w/ a Cocktail which was a mix of Rum & Tequila & various fruit & even a coffee bean. Exploding w/ Flavor like Everything we had. Then for starters Tuna Ceviche w/ Yellowfin Tuna, Avocado, Watermelon, Red Onion w/Plantain Chips for dipping. Then we had to try Empanadas made by Chef Edgar's Mom. You felt the Love & it's crunchy outside & savory meat inside. Then onto an 8 oz Hanger Steak, which was perfectly cooked & seasoned w/o the Chimichurri. My Mom was Hungry to have leftovers so, she opted for the 30-day Aged 16 oz Angus Ribeye, which More than 1/2 of it went home w/ her. Then the Veggie sides Steamed Asparagus, Grilled Carrots w/Goat Cheese & a Honey Chili Crisp & Roasted Cauliflower, Spiced Almonds, Feta Crema, Pesto. That & the Baby Carrots were the stars, but the Standout side was by far Potatoes Au Gratin w/ Bechamel, Gruyere, White Cheddar & Chives it was the creamiest I have ever had. Ridiculously good. For Desert we had Cheesecake which was to die for & Flourless Chocolate Cake w/ a Banana Sorbet. The service was Wonderful & Co-Owner Antonio was even on hand to say Hi. Move over Desi Vega & signature go to Chop House, cuz Brassa Steakhouse will out Steak You Downtown! Treat yourself We sure did!! Happy Easter & Thank You Antonio Mata & Chef Edgar Caro for an unforgettable meal & celebration.

Ok, I had been waiting and dying to try this spot since they opened and I was not disappointed! Absolutely one of the most delicious meals I ever had. Everything was fantastic, from the service to the sommelier walking us out the elevator at the end. They did a wonderful job renovating this space, it's so beautiful and gives you a vibe that's immaculate. Our server, (Alisha?) a lovely young black girl, I'm sorry I forgot her name because we were already having drinks, but what a joy she was! I couldn't decide on a drink so she got the somm to introduce me to a white wine and it was perfect. I did come for the whole fish but they ran out (which is fine, our reservation was later in the evening) so I ended up with the ribeye and garlic shrimp, oh my goodness.. the flavor and quality of this steak y'all... outstanding. I could talk about it forever but I cannot wait to return.10, 10, 10s across the board. Fabulous job everyone!

Brasa exceeded all my expectations. The combination of fantastic food, exceptional service, and a delightful atmosphere made for an unforgettable dining experience. John McIntyre GM, Aleisha our server created a memorable night especially....with the Irish Coffee!! I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a special night out. I can't wait to return and try happy hour!

Wow!! I just had the Best Steak ever!! The wagyu steak just melts in your mouth and was seasoned to perfection. The service was Amazing!! And Goodness it's such a Beautiful ambiance such an upgrade from the old Morton's.

Outstanding service. Very impressive menu and execution. So much flavor! Top quality through and through. Wonderful decor and quite comfortable. Highly recommend!

Listen up foodies! Brasa must be on your list! This place has an incredibly warm and inviting atmosphere and serves up some incredibly delicious South American cuisine. Trust me, you won't find anything like it anywhere else in town. Brasa also offers the one and only Himalayan salt dry-aged steaks paired with delicious South American sides that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy! If you are dining, you absolutely have to try their GAUCHO CUT. But, if you are there for lunch, they have a BRASA BURGER that is perfectly dry-aged and is accompanied by incredible sides such as PAPAS CHORREADAS! But what really sets Brasa apart is their personal touch. The owner and chef, Edgar, and his partner, Antonio, will personally come out and ask you about your experience. That's what I call a truly family-friendly vibe. Head over to Brasa and indulge in a culinary experience like no other!

Super fancy. The food was okay. You would go there more for the vibe and drinks. Not a bad time

The best steakhouse in New Orleans. We had an amazing dinner experience. The service was great and made us feel special. The location is completely remodeled. It is open and comfortable. We will de finely be making this our go-to Friday night dinner spot.

I live in Miami, One of the few places in the world that I take a flight just to eat this amazing Food!! Service is always superb, and the ambience is a nice setting. Superb in every way!

The food was great! Service staff was nice and checked on us regularly. Beautiful renovation.
