Is exactly what you would expect from a place like this. Was disappointed though that the servers didn't come around with all the cuts of meat advertised (in some cases we had to ask). It seemed very inconsistent. When you pay so much, you would expect this aspect to be a bit better. But otherwise very friendly staff and good food.

I don’t eat much actually so not a big fan of AYCE type of restaurants. In few weeks ago, Fogo de Chao offered $39/pp Best of Brazil promotion in Facebook so I thought I might want to give it a try and so reserved a table for four people with that promo code for tonight but when we were seated they said the promo’s not valid any more and regular pricing is about twice of the promo. No excuse no sorry nothing. Be aware.

We always enjoy Fogo de Chao. The food, as always, was delicious. The only downside of our visit this time is that the restaurant was over crowded, making it noisier and the wait for the gauchos to come around with their selections was quite long. They weren't able to keep up with demand. I also suspect the fire Marshall would have had something to say about the size of the crowd.

The food quality was excellent. Yet the service was amazing. Dez got us started with drinks and service kept on getting better and better. Izy was so cordial and always made sure we got everything we needed. Samuel was incredible, and made sure we got every cut of beef we requested. Needless to say they went above and beyond. Will definitely come back and ask especially for them.

It was a busy Friday night, but so many things could’ve been better. Reservation for 13 and table was only set for 12 and only had ‘limited’ room for 12…yay me, I got a chair at the end of where servers had to squeeze between me and the wall. The tables were packed in so tight, the meet service could barely get to half of our party without squeezing between two tables packed with people. A party of 13 packed in between 2 other large parties doesn’t allow for any group conversation. Those of us at the open end probably had the ‘better’ dining experience, but overall it was just not great. The food we had was good, but again, we couldn’t even talk to each other. I would recommend finding a way to use a round or square table for larger groups. A place like this can live with fewer patrons for a better experience.

Wow! This was the busiest lunch crowd I’ve seen. Everyone was very friendly and attentive. I was seated with my party of 4 right away. David and Adrian, our servers made sure we had everything we needed. I would rate my experience 11/10. Great job

IF the price seems high when first looking at menu, that thought quickly disappears when the food starts to come. I tend to skip the salad bar which is also amazing just so I can eat that much more of the amazing meats. Despite the continued presence of people walking around ready to deliver freshly cooked and wonder steak, chicken, pork, etc... options, the noise level remains relatively low which allows for easy dinner talk. It also happens to be an amazing value for families as kids under 6 eat free and children 7-12 are half off. My children have grown to half off age and have loved coming since they were younger and love to compete to see who eats more!

We love going to Fogo de Chão. The service is usually 10/10 as well as the food. However last night the service was off. Took forever for them To bring the churrasco to the table, we eventually had to ask . ( yes we did have the the paper flipped to green). Then they took forever with my husbands Diet Coke but we got our cocktails fairly quickly. At then end it was like they were circling our table to leave but we weren’t ready to go. They gave us the wrong check. Just an off night for the service team. Food was wonderful
