Yolie’s Brazilian Steak House

Went to Yolie’s for a holiday party and the waiter gave me a discount coupon to come back. Went for lunch with co workers, but they were closed by opened up just for us. The owner Yolie always treats you like she has known you for years. Excellent service and yummy food!

Worst place ever! Took more than 30 mins just for a glass of water. All the meat was rare (bloody) I don’t do meat that rare. Don’t make the mistake get pizza you will be better off.

Been coming here for over 20 years. Yolie is a wonderful person and her food is even better than she is!
The try tip is Apsley wonderful as well as the chicken. The good news is you get to try seven different meats.
I highly recommend this place!

My girlfriend and I went to Yolie’s for Christmas dinner and we were not disappointed. Yolie herself came around and greated the few guest who were eating dinner and welcomed us. Everything from the salad to the meat was delicious. Definitely get the Mix meat. We will be back!

So angry bought a Groupon to try Yolies wasnt worth it, plus they cancelled contract with Groupon told me I couldnt use it $ 70 really. First you take an elevator up dirty and shaky that was odd, place had only 3 people in there, what a creep atmosphere to begin with, my daughter didnt like just when we went thru the door. It was so ins insulting to be told we will give you the same dinner but you need to pay. Oddly I think I was glad it was old and smelled odd the people eating there didnt seem impressed with the food. They were saying dry huh? I will not recommend this place restaurants in Vegas are always busy and the other reviews says it all. Too many other restaurants they try to be Rodizo’s that they cant come close too pick a cleaner place… if it is a gem it was then now its a lump of coal

Sat down ordered water and a Arnold Palmer and got tea and a lemonade mix for mixed drinks. Very sour! Got are «Meats» and as they progressed they got more and more salty. The lamb I didn’t finish b/​c it was so bad… If less salt I think it would of been better. Used
and the manger tried to say he wouldn’t except are coupon from the website… Was $ 45!!! A plate… Insane and not worth it by any means for 45 $ a plate! $ 20 a plate would still be high… Will not return here and I recommend you go ELSE where!

Had a reservation for a month, called a week ahead to confirm, showed up and the place was DARK! Apparently they had 30 MAJOR health code violations. Went to Fogo De Chao instead. Go to Fogo, ditch Yolies

This was the most awful meal and service we experienced in a long time if not ever. The staff was entirely confused. No one knew who was expected to do what so we just sat around for long periods of time waiting for service from anyone. The waiter was apologizing for the waitress who was running around aimlessly. We had four different employees bring us food/​drinks and it took about 15 minutes for each acknowledgment (15 minutes to get water, 15 minutes to get wine, 15 minutes to get bread… etc.). Once the food came my shrimp scampi tasted like nursing home food. The veggies were flavorless as well as the side of rice. The shrimp were small and drenched in a generic cream sauce. All in all it was an overly expensive meal which for the same money I could have had a fantastic buffet at any of the casino hotels. Stay away!

The food was simply amazing. Tri-​tip was for sure my favorite. The waiter was extremely helpful and provided advice on what to eat and we were not disappointed!
This place is definitely a hidden gem and just surprised not a lot of people are aware it exists. We received a discount on our food which was a very nice gesture!
If you want to get really good brazilian food and not necessarily have to deal with the hassle on getting reservations on the strip, this is the place to go!

Staff was scrambling around as if they didn’t know what they were doing at all! Im not sure anyone even had a specific job title (if they did they didn’t know what it was) Food was ok– but we left hungry. Service was horrible!!! Sat there for 2 hours. Paid $ 40 per person and had barely any food!!!

READ THIS BECAUSE THIS IS ALL TRUE!!! When we went there an old lady was being are rude to us. We asked her where we could sit and she said «I’m right here maybe you could tell me!» We were shocked by how rude she was. Besides that, this guy brought us 5 little pieces of bread and it was 3 people at the table. We asked him for more and took him about 40 minutes to «cook it» when he brought the first piece of meat it was literally BLACK and when he cut it blood poured down of my plate. I was grossed out!!! After a couple minutes he brought more meat and it was BLACK again and as hard as a rock! Every meat I tried here it tasted worse than trash!!! We left there feeling sick and I’m NEVER going there EVER again. I RECOMMEND NOT to go there. Save your money unless you like to throw your money in the garbage can because this steakhouse is the same!

If it was possible to give this experience 0 stars, I would. This restaurant swindled us. We were a party of 13. When we sat down, we asked the waiter what the vegetarian options were and he said he would ask the chef but ensured us that it would be delicious (he said he had a girlfriend who was a vegetarian and he promised to provide a delicious vegetarian meal). Then he said he would bring us some appetizers. He brought several. We never saw menus. He just ordered for us. He doubled shot sizes without asking. The vegetarian meal was steamed vegetables. Tasteless steamed vegetables. I had to add salt to make it mediocre. My friends said the meat was not yummy. It was not worth the price.
Our total bill for 13 people was $ 1000 before tip. $ 400 of that was 4 doubled shots. We were all blown away by this. Why would the waiter double the shots without asking, especially at that price? We were swindled at this restaurant and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone because I just don’t trust them.

Wish I could put 0 stars. Customer service was horrendus. Came here and got seated with a menu and waited. It took 5 minutes to get just water. After about 20 minutes, the owner comes over and pushes the all you can eat for $ 40 on us; but no one was that hungry, so we were ordering off their menu. After berating us for coming to a brazillian restaurant and ordering off their menu and not spending a couple hundred dollars on what he wanted, we finally just walked out. Right on our heels were two other groups that got pissed off as well. Good job owner, because you decided to be a dick you lost out on not only our money, but others as well. Avoid this place if you can!

This is one of the best Brazilian restaurants. Fresh food served hot. Everything was prepared to perfection. Clean, neat and relaxing. The prices are reasonable, service great and food outstanding.
If you havent tried this restarant you are missing the boat

We ate at Yolie’s Brazilian Steak House last night. We had a living Social that was like $ 50 for 2 with 2 drinks. It was exhalant despite the fact that they were set up for a Christmas party coming in in 45 min. Our Waiter was Frank and he was superb. He apologized right off saying that he was going to rush us a little so we could get out before the party. WE thanked him ahead for that as it was the UNLV Marching Band so it was going to be load college students that were going to be drinking a lot.
The food was really good started with soup and a salad then we had some Vegies and Chicken. Fallowed up by Bacon Raped Turkey, then Tri Tip, Top Sirloin, Pork loin and finally lamb. I did not care for the lamb as I don’t like Lamb in general. Also the tri tip was just ok. But my favorite things were the Chicken and the Turkey.
We will for sure be back again at full price.
Oh it is a little hard to find as it is up an inside corner of a Food Shopping center up stares

This was my second experience and place when it comes to Brazilian steakhouses. Though sadly over time it has seemed to nose dive quite a bit, it’s been around longer than the other competition that’s now in Vegas but that’s probably the reason. New competition has shown up and this place doesn’t seem to be able to keep up. We’ve thought about going back but we’ve found better, who knows, maybe one day.

The good is OK and the service is horrible. They argue in front of us and the other guest. When we ask them question they just walk away. I feel like we were unwelcome due to i use the groupon because our server and the busser hardly stop by and when we ask for a refill, they just give a jock for us to do it for ourself. I will never come back and do not recommended this place for anyone.

No way to give no stars. I was served raw chicken. I only caught it with the flash from my phone because lighting was so dim. I told the waiter who said he would tell the chef. No one came to apologize by the time I left. I stopped by a pharmacy on the way home for stomach relief medicine in anticipation of a very long night spent next to the porceline bowl… :-(

So, unlike another reviewer, I don’t really know what Brazilian food is like. But, what I can say is that the food at this place is great! I definitely recommend getting the package where you get to try all the different meats. It cost about $ 35 per person but then you get to try a little bit of everything!
Everything was very good, and some things were exceptional! The waitstaff was friendly and the service was also good.

NOW THAT’S A KNIFE!
And I am sure that the server wanted to stick it in me!
I have never come here by choice. I have only been here for team dinners or as I like to call it group fun. It is easy because you just tell them 15 people and no one needs to even look at a menu.
Let’s get back to that knife getting stuck in me. This place is not like a Fogo because they really do not want you to eat a lot of meat here. The waiter was handing out turkey breast and my co-​worker said he did not want one. I asked the waiter for a second turkey and he told me, «NO!» He then looked at me and said, «I am bringing sausage next. You can have that!» I then said, «I do not want sausage, I want the turkey breast!» He still refused to give it to me. Can we say, «Awkward!»
When the waiter came back he refused to give me sausage! He said, «You told me you did not want sausage!» I said, «Yeah I did but since you told me I couldn’t have the turkey breast. I want the sausage out of principal!» It was quite funny because my co-​worker then made the waiter give me two sausages. I am glad that I did because the sausage was really tasty. I might have missed out on that. From that point on the waiter was a little mad at me. In fact, he chose to cut all of the meat directly in front of me. I was just waiting for him to spill on me or drop something in my lap. It was very weird and a little of a power play on his part.
I also must point out that the food here is really salty. The chicken was good but it was over salted. We ordered a bunch of pitchers of water for the table. Something strange also happen. About 30 minutes after we ate our chicken, the waiter came back with thongs to pick out our chicken bones off of our plate. Why didn’t they just give us a clean plate? And he was only grabbing chicken bones. He was leaving the beef fat and other various scraps of meat. I told my buddy that the chef needed the bones to make a stock. Sadly I believe that this is what was happening right at our table. I also joked that they were going to make a stock out of our bones and make us drink it as a team building experience. Yuck!!!
The sides here are terrible. The Brazilian buns are the worse Brazilian buns ever. At other places I can not stop eating them but here I would not even feed them to a bird. The only side that is good is the fried polenta or at least I think that is what it is.
The bartender is a sweet old lady but she can not remember your drink. So make it easy and just order a beer or a scotch or a wine. We started drinking at the bar and the bartender could not even remember what rum she used in one of my co-​workers drinks. The funny part is that she sold us at the bar that it was the best dark rum and then 20 minutes later could not even tell us what rum it was. Lies!!!
The owner here is also all business. He tries to up sell everything. He also tried to get us to buy bottles of wine for the table. He told us that it would be easier for us to get a drink if we just poured our own wine. I found this unbelievable that an owner would try and talk us out of mixed drinks. He even went as far as to tell us it would be hard for us to get our drinks. I really did not like this. We all stuck with ordering from the bar but it was a slow painful process. This place lost money!
On another occasion we had a bunch of female co-​workers with us and the owner was all over them. It was a little sick. He was hitting on them and ignoring all of the men at the table. I found this a little tasteless. We did not have to worry about this on our most recent visit because we had 14 men and 1 woman.
I also must point out that I usually come here during the two largest conventions in Vegas (CES and NAB) and we can always get a table. Try that at the other restaurants and you will be waiting 1 to 2 hours for a table. Yes there is always a table open here and it is easy to get in. That tells me that a lot of people are not going out of there way to come here and eat.
The best thing that I had here was the shrimp cocktail which the owner pushed us to order along with fried calamari. Do not get the fried calamari because it is not fresh. I believe it is frozen and it does not taste good at all. These were all add on’s and the owner never came back once we refused to buy bottles of wine. He went to work other tables and get there bills inflated.
The only good cut of meat here was the tri-​tip. It was really tasty. It was sad that after all of that meat, it was the only one of the cuts that actually stood out. Also, beware that the waiter is going to control how much meat you get and the process is slow and long… painfully long.
This place is not fancy. The interior could use a face lift along with an attitude adjustment by the staff. I am sure that the owner tells them to not give people a lot of meat even though it is all you can eat. The menu should say, «All you can bare!» because after a while you just want to get out of here!
