Best South American Restaurants in Kendall West

Last Thursday’s Date Night took us to Amazónico, and what a fantastic experience! The atmosphere was exactly what I was looking for! The restaurant has such an amazing vibe, and the live band made the evening even better. We absolutely loved it! The menu was a little adventurous for my taste, but we decided to step outside our comfort zone and try a few things. We started with the sea urchin and guacamole, Brazilian cheese bread, and Amazónico salad. The queso fundido was absolutely AMAZING, and the garlic and rosemary potatoes were delicious! For our main courses, I ordered the churrasco, which was fantastic, while my husband had the picanha. He actually ended up preferring my steak over his! The cocktails were also excellent! We definitely would return! The ambiance, live music, and overall experience made it a great Date Night spot. Just keep in mind, Amazónico is definitely on the pricey side, so it's not somewhere I'd recommend if you're dining on a budget. But if you're looking for a fun night out with great energy, delicious drinks, and a beautiful atmosphere, it's definitely worth checking out! ❤️

We had an absolutely phenomenal dinner at Texas de Brazil! From start to finish, everything was a perfect 5-star experience. The rodizio-style continuous service was top-notch. Every cut of meat was seasoned perfectly, incredibly juicy, and grilled to absolute perfection. The picanha, filet, and lamb chops were absolute standouts. Beyond the amazing meats, the salad bar is unmatched—so fresh and loaded with an incredible variety of gourmet items, cheeses, and their delicious lobster bisque. What really elevated the evening was the exceptional service from Diego. He was incredibly attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure our plates were never empty and that we had everything we needed. Combined with the beautiful and energetic upscale ambiance, it made for an unforgettable night. It is worth every single penny. We will definitely be back—and we'll definitely ask for Diego's section again!

The restaurant is perfect for any occasion. The ambiance is beautiful, the service is exceptional, and the food is truly top-notch. A wonderful dining experience that I would highly recommend.
