Gaucho’s Prime

Montgomery CountyBrazilian, Steakhouse, South American$$$

Formally attired gauchos patrol the handsomely appointed dining room of this Brazilian churrascaria in King of Prussia, showing up tableside bearing knives and sizzling skewers of grilled meats whenever you flip your service disc from red to green. The salad bar, which differentiates Gaucho’s Prime from countless chains, is a showstopper, loaded down with not just the usual veggie fixings, but salads, Brazilian sides, smoked fish, breads, and an entire board full of sliced meats and cheeses, along with a few varieties of soup. The bar list is uncommonly deep, too, with 10 different caipirinhas to start.
