Reviews for Alegria in Katy, TX
I really enjoyed Alegria. Amanda behind the counter greeted me and knew the menu very well. Don?t tell, but she comped some... cheese bread so I could try it. I?ve read some of the other reviews and some struck me as odd. Brazilian food doesn?t havethe richness or heavy flavoring of Italian or French. It?s fairly simple, it?s good, and it?s usually expensive. The portionshere are large, the food is good, the staff amazing, and you don?t have to pay Brazilian steak house prices. I?ll be back thenext time I have a meeting in Katy. Read more
Read a few reviews on the site; and it's APPARENT they were written by friends and family. This place is horrible! Went in... around 1:00pm since they close at 3. Anyway upon entry the place smelled nice due to the smoker inside. Wanted some of theCarrot rice, which looked dry, so I asked for a fresh batch only to be told they weren't preparing anymore! So no to that dryrice that's been cooked since 9am since they open at 11am! Steak had good color but no season. Chicken LEG which comes withEVERY order had a green tint (which may have been some type of rub) didn't look appeasing NOR did the flavor! Won't bereturning. Doesn't make me want to taste Brazilian food again. Just awful Read more
We love Alegria! The staff has always been friendly and remembers us (maybe that's bad, do we eat out too much?). I love... stroganoff and it's the only place in town I've found that serves it. My husband will order 6 pieces of Brazilian cheese bread -- for himself. Their chicken drumsticks are also scrumptious. I do wish a salad was a side option. The plates are generous with3 sides, but the choices can feel limited, especially if you are minimizing carbs. Read more
We are so well here! Probably one of the best chicken drumsticks I've ever had. It was so crispy and juicy and flavorful. The... steak was a close second. I also always love a delicious pao de queijo ?? Read more
I seriously loved this place! If I lived in the area I would be here often. We got a chicken dumpling, a beef pastel, a cheese... pastel, then we got the shrimp soup bowl. I definitely recommend eating the soup with the white rice!! And the fried yucca,grilled pineapple, and plantain were all super delicious as well Read more
Wow. Not sure how I missed this place all this time. The food is great and is very reasonably priced. I had the Brazilian combo... - steak and chicken with 3 sides (I had double grilled veggies) and there was just so much food. The grilled vegetables werefresh and the greens were still firm and had lots of bacon. The steak was tender and cooked to order and the chicken was juicyand well seasoned. Although the food was good, the service is the reason to come. You won?t find friendly people anywhere Theyare really great. Read more
All the food was delicious. Prices are a bit high. The plates are mainly the side items. The cheese bread was made fresh to... order and was the best I've had. The kids meals are a better deal than the regular entrees. Read more
I went with a friend for the first time, we had the frijolia for lunch, it was delicious. I saw other people's lunches who... ordered something different, they looked delicious. I will definitely go back Read more
