    I went off script and got the corn chowder. Smoky and tasty!
    Amanda G.

    If you know me then you know Fogo as a whole is a top 5 spot for me. So I was OVERJOYED when 1) my cousin gifted both me and Drusband (please see previous review as I will not elaborate) Fogo gift cards for Xmas, and 2) Drusband suggested we celebrate our 18th anniversary here. This may also factor heavily into why he's my fave person but that's neither here nor there. We had a res for 12 o'clock weekend brunch. There's just something about beef rib with a side of made-to-order omelette that can't be beat. In my side hustle I grade middle school standardized tests. Our instructions are to grade ::holistically:: such that we look for what is done well and don't let a couple of errors that don't disrupt meaning tank the score. This was our experience at Fogo Sunday - some odd things but an overall fantastic experience that will keep us coming back: We had an Open Table at 12 yet were somehow seated behind walk-ins. When we were finally seated the hostess was super attentive to my seating requests - you know Mands DOES NOT DO arms with chairs. She got us a prime banquette seat right by the salad bar. Drusband ordered a pour of McCallan 15 and it came back on the rocks. When we got that fixed a manager brought out the bottle and did a tableside pour. We love to see it. Fogo I love you but yall be keeping that beef rib under lock and key. I requested it and got a plate served directly to me. I'll allow it. We asked our waiter to take our pic and attentive staff asked what we're celebrating - got our fave cheesecake as a gift. Was the experience seamless? Nah. Was it amazing all the same? Absolutely. The meats were delicious, the salad bar was fresh, the woman making the omelettes was ::on it:: and the staff was eagle-eyed. Also, we tore that cheesecake up last night. Thank you for a memorable 18th - I'll be back in a month to celebrate my birthday!

    Today was the worst experience I've had at any restaurant in a very long time. Key items weren't available on the bar menu. The service was horrible. We ended up paying for our drinks and leaving. I really hope this was just a fluke.

    The service was good but the food lacked flavor. We ordered a $130 dollar steak that tasted worst than longhorn. For the price I would have thought it would be a better cut, more seasoning and not so much fat. The decor was mall restaurant, nothing really too extravagant. Glad I tried this place but probably will never go back.

    Had such a wonderful large group experience last week. They have really gotten this location down pat. Service. Food. Drinks. Table location. Everything was superb. Definitely have to do the full Radizio Goucho experience! Salad bar is a meal in itself. Kodos to the entire team from manager to drink servers to table clearers. The meats!!!

    Wagyu Ancho Ribeye 24oz
    Gerald N.

    2.75 stars. It was slightly below average especially given its reputation. Service was disjointed as servers switched mid dinner. They were friendly though but sometimes hard to flag down. Menu options were average. 1. Sea bass - Good sized portion. A bit overcooked but it was still flavorful given the fish. 2. Wagyu Ribeye (Ancho) - Split between three people. Good portion size. Comes on a salt block to keep cooking. Some pieces were medium well and some were the medium as ordered. 3. Creme Brulee Cheesecake - 10/10 here. I would come back only for this cheesecake. They did a great job being creative and loading it with flavor and good cheesecake texture. 4. Lava cake - Ice cream melted way too fast. Cake was soggy. "Lava" was too thick. Had way better versions elsewhere. 5. Creme brulee - Terrible. Probably one of the worst ones I've had. The shell was too thick. Didn't crack when you hit the spoon on top. The cream was too thick and tasted like egg yolk. Definitely skip this one. Overall, not a great first impression besides the Creme Brulee Cheesecake. I'd come back just for that but never coming back on my own for the rest.

    Chilean sea bass
    Deb A.

    Service was not good. The waiter forgot about the second drink that was ordered. The food is just ok. We got the wagyu ribeye and the Chilean sea bass. The ribeye was yummy but the Chilean sea bass was mediocre. The cheesecake brulee was amazing because of the crunchy coating. . Molten chocolate cake was just ok and the creme brulee tasted weird,we didn't even eat it Bec it tasted like scrambled egg.

    I love me a good rodizio. I mean LOVE. Fogo de Chao opened near me and had been wanting to go. My wife is awesome and took me for my birthday recently. We were promptly seated and the waitress was great about explaining how things worked in terms of their menu. Always appreciate this since rodizio places have their nuance with what is or isn't included, etc. They have two rodizio experiences. Biggest differences are that the less expensive version does not include a starter/appetizer or dessert. Otherwise, both include the salad bar which has hot and cold offerings like rice, beans, salad, cheese, etc. PLUS yuca, fried bananas, and mashed potatoes served to your table with your meal. The cuts of meat served were delicious. Bacon wrapped sirolin, filet, chicken thigh, sausage, among others. What was hard to decipher sometimes was if they had other cuts of meat to offer and we didn't know about them? Would be nice to know exactly what we should expect to see/get so that we can plan accordingly if you will. Needless to say, my wife and I were in a food coma when we were done. Everything was so delicious. We ordered crab cake as our starter and it was really good. The mayo it was served with was particularly good. My 4-star review is honestly nitpicking at the knowledge of the meat selection, nothing more. The service was great. Staff were all super friendly and paid attention to everyone (it was definitely a busy evening when we went).

    I had a slightly different experience at this Fogo de Chao branch, compared to the one in DC. I would say the occupancy matters A LOT when it comes down to service. We came on a Saturday evening and it was PACKED. We even put our reservation down on OpenTable for 7, and eventually got seated by 8:10p even though they confirmed the times with us over the phone :( Once we were seated at a makeshift table, the meat service was even slower. Our cards were flipped green but we were consistently overlooked by the perimeter tables, and at some point had to flag down a waiter to get any meat. I would rate the food fantastically. The self serve bar is complete, and pairs well with all the menu items. Even when we were able to get some meat, it was cooked well. I do understand that a busy dinner time can impact service, but it definitely didn't leave a good impression, especially when we reserved weeks in advance for a birthday. I would recommend coming here, but on a less crowded day if you're able.

    Very good Lived that they have happy hour all day everyday at the Bridgewater location, Just wish there's was more well-drink options

    Beautiful restaurant, attentive service, and delicious food with generous servings. I was invited by a friend who has dined at this location many times. She knew exactly what would make my first experience memorable which involved ordering the full churrasco. All types and cuts of meat continued to be freshly carved at our table as long as we had room in our stomach to fit it in. The meat just kept coming, and I'm talking ribeye, roasted chicken, lamb chops, sirloin, etc. I was told to bring my appetite, yet I remained unprepared for what was to come and also what kept coming. Prior to the churrasco, we enjoyed the market table which was like a mini market of fruits, veggies, salads and a variety of fixings. One could fill up just on that alone, but then you would miss out on the best part. And for dessert, I ordered their crème brulee. Everything was very good; some of the meats I enjoyed more than others, but how great it was to be offered so many options. I look forward to returning and doing it all over again.

    We made reservations for our party of 6 for a birthday celebration. The vibes were cozy in the space we were seated. We opted for the full churrasco experience for each of us. Our server was very attentive and friendly. Unfortunately the drink service took a lengthy amount of time and we had to ask for updates on our drinks a few times. The salad bar offered a wide variety of items, but it's a little chaotic with the amount of people. The included sides were a nice touch. The churrasco experience was enjoyable overall, but the downside was the repetitive selections. If you prefer your steak cooked to a specific temperature, you might just have to accept whatever they serve. I will also note desserts were delicious.

Unfortunately, my overall experience was very disappointing due to poor service. Our server, a shorter male who I believe was named Ricardo, took our order. I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and yuca fries. After waiting 25 minutes, I asked a staff member serving steak to check on the order, and he agreed. After 45 minutes, I followed up again with another staff member, a woman with reddish hair in a ponytail, and asked her to check with the kitchen. After waiting over an hour with no update, when she passed back, I informed her that I no longer wanted the food, and she acknowledged my request. Throughout this entire time, our server never once checked in on us. When he finally came to the table, I confirmed that my order had been canceled, and he said yes. He then proceeded to tell us that cooking takes time and that we needed to be patient. I dine out regularly and understand reasonable wait times, but the lack of communication and follow-up was unacceptable. The comment made by our server felt dismissive and unprofessional, especially given the circumstances. Overall, this experience did not meet expectations, and I will likely just stick to New York in the future.

Service: Service for the most part was excellent, and servers come around constantly asking if you need anything. The meats were a bit slow to come out, and for the first half of our meal, we weren't offered much meat which was disappointing. It was a lot of waiting around for the meat to come to our table. We had to start asking servers to send over specific cuts of meat before it started coming out. I'm not sure if bringing meats out slowly and not frequently is intentional on the restaurant's part, but it would be disappointing if that's the case. This experience made me not want to return in the near future. Ambiance: The ambiance is very upscale and high end. Seating is comfortable, and the restaurant is huge with multiple floors. Both large and small groups can be accommodated.

I didn't want to fill up on too much salad as I was here for the meats. For the most part, the selection of carved meat was impressive. The gauchos came around with many different selections while we were displaying green. They were very knowledgeable and generous with the portions. My only issues were that it took our server a while to get our first round of ice tea and waters. This lapse in service didn't last long as she greatly improved as time went on. The chicken wrapped in bacon was extremely dry and it probably should not have been served? A few minutes after, the manager came over to our table to ask if everything was ok. I mentioned that the chicken was dry and within five or so minutes, a gaucho brought over a fresh skewer of bacon wrapped chicken. Lastly, the pão de queijo ( cheese bread) was at room temperature. I still ate it but probably would have tasted better if it was served warm? My friend also received a nice piece of complementary birthday cake. For the most part, I definitely will return as I enjoyed both the salad bar and the meats. I also forgot to take pictures and will make sure to do so on my next visit. Finally. the service was outstanding less the hiccup at the beginning.

I got the brazilian fried chicken, which was extremely flavorful, and i was surprised there wasn't any breading on the chicken as typical fried chicken does. I much preferred the no-breading style, which I think is the Brazilian way. I would have preferred a boneless dish, as there were quite a few pieces with bones, and it was pretty oily at the bottom of the dish. It came with two very large sides, and totaled around $25. 100% would recommend this dish, but I do think at a lower price point, this could make do with just one side, instead of two, as the main dish was quite large enough to fill me up. My favorite part of this meal was the garlic butter bread that they provide for free. It comes out extremely fresh with lots of chopped up garlic, which is my favorite part of garlic bread. It was a great way to start the dinner off. The service was great and the waiters were extremely attentive. They regularly checked up on how we felt about the food and filled up our drinks. The restaurant was pretty empty while we were dining, but the space was laid out very nicely and the decor was beautiful. Would come again if it wasn't so far!
