This is a great steakhouse but it's nice for vegetarians too. I wouldn't recommend bringing an all veggie crew here but as one of the party I had a great time. Plus they were good for gluten free folks too. They brought out a whole spreadsheet for all their food and common allergies. It was really exceptional. Their salad bar is more than just salad with delicious pastas, rice/beans, grains, fruits, ect. They have two veggie entree too. In addition to your main though there are included hot sides like amazing roasted Yuca and delicious mashed potatoes. The service is above and beyond. With many people working with each table. Erick H. and Malia were our main servers and were stupendous. read more

Embarrassing is what comes to mind thinking of our dinner. Upon a recommendation that I had made, 6 of us eagerly went-fully thinking we would enjoy an experience like others Fogo de Chao's... We were wrong! The service was so poor we had to keep requesting items-only to see them go to other tables and not ours. I requested "bone-in ribeye" 5x, and almost 2 hrs later one did show up, but not after half the table was done. Several orders of pichana were so overly done that it could have passed for beef jerky. Often the signature fat cap was left off as the gaucho cut the piece top to bottom. It's not like the selections were not ready, we could clearly see them making their way through the restaurant, only to be thwarted a few tables away. I requested chimmichuri for the 6 of us, got 2 1oz ramekins a half hour later. No apology, no explanation why this tiny amount was to serve 6 adults. When we were done, no "thank you for choosing Fogo de Chao". Other locations, the head server or manager would frequent each table-not here. And maybe that's why it is-what it is. Never coming back here again. read more

Food was great as always. Picanha and lamb steak is my favorite. I'm sad to say but the service was subpar this time around. My group and I felt that we were often neglected and had to constantly ask and follow up on our requests. We were there for 2.5hrs..and it wasn't even because we were socializing and catching up. Most of it was just waiting for the rotations to come...even our drinks took 30min to come. Came here to celebrate my birthday and honestly it was kind of a let down. With all the long wait times I didn't even want to follow up on the birthday dessert / they forgot all about it. I always thought Fogo de Chaos service was amazing but after this I'm not sure anymore. read more

We've been to other fogo de Chao locations, but first time at this one. Food was good, we did the experience and i felt like we kept getting the same meats served to us. We did enjoy the majority of the side dishes that were eventually brought out to us. We were in the back and all the good Meats never really made it to us. My husband is a black man and they sat us in the back where they had all the black people. I thought that was strange and i didnt notice until we went up to the self serve food stations. Service wasn't the best, we would try to flag down our server but he was no where to be found for long periods of time. Overall our dinner was enjoyed and the crème brûlée was delicious! read more

Fogo de Chão - Crème brûlée - Brazilian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Meat was pretty dry. Our waitress was very rude however the guy who ended up helping us after she went to help the 18 top was pretty amazing. Don't know his name but he was killing it even with his right arm in a sling! read more

The food was absolutely delicious! My favorite was the Branzino. So juicy, flavorful and well cooked! We went for my birthday so of course we had the dessert! The tres leches was bomb and so was the cheesecake. The service was great since there is always food being served. The place was busy for a Saturday, but we had a nice table in the center of the restaurant. read more

Great food and excellent, friendly service. Love the market bar such a great variety. My husband had the full experience so much meat to choose from. I picked choose one option which was great because I just wanted a little meat, usually I do the salmon but want red meat today. All the staff was excellent and made our anniversary night out great. read more

We always love dining here, but what makes this place even better is the staff: so attentive to their guests. Every few minutes, someone would check the water in our cups. Doesn't sound a lot, but when the entire eating experience comes with expectations, this is one of the basic things for servers to do, and I appreciate your attention to my water cup. Today we ordered the wagyu ancho (ribeye) along with the full churrasco experience and took advantage of the lunch pricing. Although everything was delicious, I think we overdid it this time. I enjoyed everything they offered at the salad bar, but the best by far were the chili flakes bacon. OMG! I have dined here before, but never seen this food item offered. The chili flakes go quite well with the salty bacon. The rest of the meats including the filet mignon (exceptional good!), chicken wrapped in bacon, etc. were delicious. For a holiday, which was Labor Day, it was rather quiet at this location today. We were able to have a quiet lunch by the window where we can watch people walking by the establishment. Looking forward to our next dining experience here at Fogo de Chao! read more

Service was awful!! There's 3 options, best of Brazilian, regular and all the extras. The difference is the filet mignon,rib eye and lamb chops are on the regular. We were seated for over 45 minutes before they brought out any rib eye--we had to ask the manager to get us some ribeye, filet and lamb chops. They kept circling with sausage and chicken legs for over 45 minutes!!! read more

Fogo de Chão - Waiting for the upgraded pieces - Brazilian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I've been to various Fogos before, so I knew what to expect in terms of atmosphere, cost, and their offerings.. but I have to say that this was by far the BEST Fogo de Chão experience I've ever had, thanks to the staff at this particular location. We were simply bombarded with meat offerings. They came so fast and so furious that I had no other option but to deploy my red 'stop' sign. Not because I was full, but because I couldn't eat fast enough to keep up! Special shout out to our server Nick and his managers, Gabriel and Julia, for making the night extra special. They even invited us into the kitchen to take pictures! read more

We had such a lovely brunch! Nick and Chris were so attentive and sweet and funny. Of course the food was fabulous, as were the specialty drinks and deserts. Thank you for making our Girlie day so special read more

We went tonight and had a great experience! The service is beyond top notch. Jasmine, our server, gave amazing recommendations, checked in often to make sure we were doing well, and just made sure our visit couldn't get any better! The food is great, especially any of the steak varieties, but again I have to emphasize how great our server was. I've never had service so catered and she was just a great vibe and SO helpful. read more

I had to set up a business dinner for 17 people and chose Fogo because of its reputation for decent food. I reached out to Anastasia a couple of weeks prior to set up dinner and see what options they had. She was very helpful with everything all the way down to getting me pricing and meal options, pricing, and setting up the room for this dinner. Our party showed up and were directed to the room. The room was pre-set up and was quite spacious. The food that evening was nice, from the salad bar to the various proteins brought around over the next couple of hours. They even popped into the room occasionally with portable, rolling bars that offered the guests various other drink options. Their caipirinha was quite popular with our party, as we seemed to drink many of them. Our primary server in the room, Jason was excellent as well! He and his team kept a constant eye on us, cleared tables frequently, took requests for meats and had them immediately delivered, and ensure we were sincerely happy with our visit. Overall, this was a very nice business dinner. I'd definitely recommend having your special dinner meal here. Give Anastasia a call to get one set up for you! read more

5 stars for the wait staff and food. I would take away a star for Fogo de Chao's current business model - allowing overbooking at their restaurant and over extending their staff. This past Saturday was stupid busy. I really felt bad for the wait staff. The food was still delicious, the service was still good, but the long wait for gauchos and the long wait for a table with a reservation was silly. I heard they had over 700 guests for the dinner service, and for the staff to still have a smile at the end of the day was mind blowing to me - they are definitely professionals! I see a lot of them looking overwhelmed in-between guests but always a positive, smiling face when dealing with the guests. I applaud them for getting through the dinner service. Shout out to our main server - Carter. He was on point and attentive - you can tell he really loves his job. I didn't get the names of the other gauchos who really stood out and I'm sorry I have to describe how they look - one was a handsome dark complexion man (he sounded like he was from Africa) who always had a smile and joked around with us with the best attitude when he brought us the meat. One was a petite beautiful blond-ish hair, fair complexion lady that promise to come right back to our table with the picahna after getting it a little bit more done - she did come right back!! One was another petite adorable Latina lady that served us the grilled cheese with honey that had the best laugh. I didn't get to take photos this time as we tried to eat as fast as we could and get out before they close... our reservation was at 7:15, we didn't get seated until closer to 8, and by the time we grabbed our check it was almost 10, there was a lot do waiting for the gauchos to come around, and the drinks refill but with the amount of customers that night, totally understandable.... Fogo de Chao is still the best Brazilian steakhouse in my opinion and I didn't know they validated parking until this time, so it's nice to come to downtown without worrying about parking. Thanks Carter and team for your wonderful hospitality! read more

The food is delicious, so flavorful and the service is excellent The salad bar has so many unique choices. Definitely going back!

Great experience tonight and will definitely come back again. Thanks to our server Moses!

Ambiance of the restaurant was wonderful and the highlight of the experience was definitely the staff. They were all extremely kind and consistently checked in with our party. The food however was slightly disappointing. Everything tasted fine it was just slightly underwhelming for what I was expecting from a restaurant of this standard. Nothing particularly blew me away when it came to quality and flavors but overall I would return just for the staff experience. read more

We went here for lunch. There was three of us in our party. It was basically empty as we went right when they opened. I love these places and this one was no different for me. The food is always so good and fresh. The service was good too. Always a place to go if you for sure want to have a good meal. read more

I've been going to Fogo for easily over a decade now, probably longer. I first started going in DC and have now been to about 10 locations in different states. The amount of food, good quality food, for the price is hard to beat when you could spend $60 on a plate somewhere else and not like it. The market table alone is worth it but the variety of meats, cuts and flavors is just so good!! I recently went to this Denver location as I celebrated my birthday in Denver (I'm from Seattle). It was a great dinner, from the food, service to the ambiance. I thoroughly enjoyed my birthday meal here and the free dessert doesn't hurt! The caipirinha drink is my absolute favorite, any flavor but the OG and the strawberry hibiscus are my favorite. I just always enjoy the food, drinks and vibe at Fogo. read more

My wife and went here after my conference ended downtown. We had no reservation, but they seated us in the bar right away. Shortly after that, the place got absolutely packed. Their "salad" bar had a ton of food and a lot of variety. And the meats they brought were delicious and plentiful. The wait staff were excellent. I got filled to the brim! read more

This was our first time trying Fogo de Chão in Denver, and we came with a group of four to celebrate my birthday. We were excited for the all-you-can-eat experience, but overall, it didn't live up to expectations. Service was lacking -- drinks took a while, water refills were slow, and there were long gaps between when different meats were brought around. Some of the cuts were tasty, but several came out cold or overcooked. For a place that specializes in endless meat, it felt oddly limited at times. We had noted the birthday on the reservation, but there was no acknowledgment or special touch, which was a letdown. That said, the manager did come over after we raised our concerns and did their best to make things right -- we appreciated that effort. Unfortunately, even with the manager stepping in, the overall experience just didn't feel worth the price for a special occasion. Not sure we'd return. read more

I'm a big fan of steakhouses and after a trip years ago to São Paulo Brazil I can't think of any steakhouse that I enjoy more than Fogo de Chão! A steakhouse that is especially great when celebrating any kind of milestone event, holiday, or just to treat yourself to a fun and exciting experience with great food and company. Speaking of great company we were met by Gabriel who manages this restaurant but does everything else as well! Roberta from São Paulo helped me find more Palm Hearts and their tasty Bacon! Carter, Sir, and Jessica rounded out our birthday celebration experience and made this milestone so memorable! Enjoy this place for yourself and bring someone special! read more

Fogo de Chão - Brazilian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Walking thru the door, I instantly regretted dining here. There were no hosts to greet us and once we were seated, we waited quite awhile for a server to tend to us. Mind you, it was not busy when we got here. The best service we received, was serving ourself at the cold bar. There were so many workers as well which didn't make sense to us. Overall, we didnt mind our dinner and our drinks. We felt like the same meat was coming around over and over again. We had to request for certain meats to come by. We did wish our meat was cooked a little bit more rather than it being freshly butchered lol This spot is really up to what you want it to be. It's an overall big restaurant with a nice ambiance. There were people dressed up really nice and others in casual clothes. I've had way better experience at different locations and restaurants. I will say, this was my first and last time coming to this location. read more

We visited Fogo de Chão on a very hectic Christmas, and despite how extremely busy it was, the service was outstanding. Courtney, Beatrice, Jade, and the entire crew made sure we received prompt attention, and the food kept coming without long waits. Their professionalism and positive attitude really stood out during such a hectic time. Great experience overall! read more

Fogo de Chão - Brazilian Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Great food, really good service and an overall nice experience. It's pricey, but when you see what they're serving up, you get it. Unlimited meats, delicious sides, Brazilian specialties and on and on! This is a special occasion place for us and we recommend, if you've never been to a churrascaria, it's worth the visit. They're marked as 4 stars because some of the facility is run down, missing handles in the bathroom and just needs attention read more

Not the best experience unfortunately. We've been to Fogo in other cities and have always had a great, consistent experience. This location in Denver however was just dirty and not one we will come back to. We arrived late afternoon on a Sunday. There was meat on the floors by our table and it looked as if the floors had not been vacuumed or cleaned from the evening before. Our utensils were questionable and needed to be replaced. The salad bar area looked liked it had not been refilled or cleaned since it was first filled for the day with several almost empty items and messes all around. Very unappetizing. The meats were mostly good except for the lamp chops which were undercooked and still bloody. We had to ask for specific items as they kept bringing around the same 4-5 over and over. We had to ask the gaucho twice for the sides and condiments as our waiter disappeared. Then again for the cheese bread which finally came towards the end of the meal with the bread a bit undercooked. We were never asked again if we wanted another cocktail. Bad service and experience for a $190 meal and one we won't be repeating here. If you are considering, head to Guard and Grace instead. read more

Eric and Josephine Thanks to the whole team for taking care of us, made our 3 year wedding anniversary more fun than we ever could have imagined. Thank you FOH and BOH for a great experience! read more

My how Fogo de Chao has fallen from its once mighty perch. Salad bars used to be a core part of the meal with shrimp, oysters and amazing salads. During this visit at the Denver location, all I could find was olives and two types of cheese. Bread was not even a decent option with only Italian bread available. Sadly, the meats were not better. The filets were so tough they were inedible. Lamb had a very off taste. Picanha steak used to be stellar. Now it is just ok. The only other worthy option was bottom sirloin... And BTW - this location did not participate in any nationally advertised promotions. Service was ok. But with bad food who cares. read more

Always love coming here and stuffing myself with friends! This place is always busy so make reservations and take an Uber to avoid finding parking! Solid for this kind of experience and I feel the pricing is fair! read more

We booked a reservation for my birthday dinner at 7:30pm on a Sunday. We have been to Fogo de Chão before in other cities so were expecting a great experience. This location unfortunately let us down. When we showed up for the reservation, we were told we were checked in and added to a wait list. We asked what the point of a reservation was and we were told there wasn't one. We waited about half an hour after our reservation time to be sat. The service once at the table was very attentive which was appreciated. The food was ok, the appetizer bar was pretty picked through. We ordered chocolate lava cake for dessert which was luke warm at best. The restaurant was filthy. Like trash on the floor, napkins on the floor, and dirty bathrooms. The bar counter had not been wiped down and there were smudges and fingerprints everywhere. Overall, we were let down with our experience and I found myself disappointed for choosing Fogo for my special day. For the price point spent, we would've preferred to go somewhere else given our experience. read more

Came on a Sunday evening (of a holiday weekend) for our reservation at 7. Had to wait an additional 30 minutes to be sat and then were sat at the wrong table and were asked to move. Mistakes totally happen but, they also offered to comp something for the wait and mistake but when the bill came, there was no remedy. The food itself was also meh -- the sides were small portions and sort of flavorless including bread, potatoes and polenta. A fair few of the meats were over salted to the point of being inedible. We liked the grilled cheddar with honey, though. The only part about our visit I enjoyed was the big selection of food at the buffet and the cheap wine at $8/glass. read more

Always love coming to fogo for lunch. I had an amazing experience with my server Jessica. Thanks again read more

Def not worth the money Salad bar was meh Most of the cuts of meats had more fat or grizzle than actual meat. The sides were average at best When u spend $150 u expect quality and this is NOT even close read more

We went to the Denver location for my birthday and had a reservation for 6:15. The lobby area was jammed packed with barely any room to stand. By 6:30 we had still not been seated so I asked the hostess if she could estimate how much more time it would take. Another employee jumped without giving her a chance to respond and told me they would get us seated as soon as possible. I asked again how long that might be and got the same answer. We awaited another 5 minutes and left. They were either overbooked, understaffed or both. We will not be back. read more

I took myself to celebrate a special occasion and was blown away by the incredible care by the staff . Special shout-out to Eddie, Moses, and Ulysses. Eddie helped me find my favorite slice of meat- he was patient, willing to go above and beyond, and made a special day even better. Ulysses's took the time to chat about Brazil and his background. He blew me away with his attention to detail. Moses treated me to a dessert and made sure I was taken care of the whole time. The restaurant was packed and they made me feel like the only one in there. The service was 5 - give these three guys a raise!!! it well deserved. Seriously, the food was incredible but they made my night. There was a never ending supply of perfectly cooked meat- I didn't think it was possible to eat so much!!! So delicious and hands down my favorite place to celebrate Obrigada!!! read more

The service was ok, but the food was lacking. The sides are incredibly lack luster and the meat quality varied on the delivery. They brought some mashed potatoes to the table, but they were cold. I had some super overcooked filet, but some cuts were cooked ok. However, none of it knocked my socks off. The flavor is not there. I also had a lobster tail that was overcooked. Then we had desert and I had the molten lava cake. Which all they do is microwave those to heat them up. And mine was still cold with the chocolate still solid in the middle. They did replace it, but none of the food was great and you have to really, really, really love meat to find this place great. And I like meat fine, but I would like a decent side, which they really didn't have. Also, I saw them touch our plates with the rods holding the meat, which is cross contaminating the food. So, that's concerning, especially if someone is ill or has something contagious. read more
