I always had a desideratum to dine at Fogo. I always wondered what a dining experience would be. Forward. Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse is considered an upscale complete with table linens, celebratory atmosphere, and "all-you-can-eat" venue, typically with a bustling, energetic Southern Brazilian cuisine, serving churrasco barbecue style meats and traditional side dishes. This location is in Elmhurst, Queens, NYC and adjacent to Queens Center Mall where patrons can shop and subsequently conclude the day with a wonderful meal. Party of two for "All For One Price" continuous, fire-roasted cuts brought to your table, endless sides, and seasonal specialties from the Market Table - all for one price. The "Market Table" is a open buffet which includes fruits, vegetables, and seafood. This Market Table is very large. Food is very fresh and abundant readiness. I made the mistake to ruin my appetite with crackers mere hour before sitting at our table. Fire roasted meat distribution to table and carved with patrons catching a piece using a tong. Fogo is a meat lover's paradise for a heavy steak meal. The bottom sirloin or bacon wrapped steak, is noted by Yelpers, always dry. The parmesan crusted pork is flavorful and surprisingly juicy. I highly enjoyed the salmon and Caesar salad. The Green Card system is a signaling device used in traditional Brazilian service, known as Churrasco which allows patrons to control the pace of a meal of the "all-you-can-eat" buffet experience. Green Side (Go): When you place the card with the green side facing up, it signals the Gaucho chefs that you want to continue receiving service. Continuous Service: Chefs will frequently visit your table to carve various fire-roasted meats directly onto your plate, including signature cuts like Picanha (top sirloin), Filet Mignon, Ribeye, and lamb chops. Red Side (Stop): When you need a break or are finished, you turn the card to the red side to signal the chefs to stop. Rosé, Montes "Cherub" Colchagua Valley, Chile Dry, seductive, and elegant, it is a very smooth good finish. This wine may me float. I always have a predilection for wine. Caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail This drink is made with cachaça (a sugar cane), hard liquor, sugar and lime with ice. It's refreshing for my friend. Chocolate Molten cake with vanilla ice cream One word: WOW! Customer service is very attentive and polite with kindness in a celebratory positive mood. Our party of two were inquired if we needed anything during mid-dinning experience and my friend requested Brazilian grilled cheese, espetinhos de queijo with honey. Pão de queijo, Brazilian cheese puff bread is served. High ceilings and there is a large relief statue of Antônio Caringi, Brazilian sculptor (1905-1981). Business cards and mints are abundantly available for grabs. I strongly suggest table reservations in advance, particularly for weekends and holidays as this large dining hall was bewilderingly very quickly filled as we dined on extreme artic cold February, Saturday. Every day can be one's birthday celebration. I think being alive with another tomorrow is a reason to be celebratory. I would surely return for another visit - enter empty stomach. read more

really hate leaving bad reviews, but this place truly deserves it. The service at Fogo de Chão was terrible from start to finish. Our waiter was nowhere to be found most of the night -- even when it was time to pay the bill. Staff barely came around, and we constantly had to get up and flag someone down just to get attention. If you want a real rodizio experience, go somewhere else. The food wasn't enough to make up for how disorganized and inattentive the service was. Definitely not worth the time or money. Never again. read more

We recently visited this Brazilian steakhouse and unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations. The meats -- which are supposed to be the highlight -- were disappointing. Many of the pieces were overly fatty, some were burnt, and most lacked proper seasoning. For the price, we expected much better quality and flavor. On a positive note, the side dishes were fresh and fairly good, which helped a little, but they weren't enough to make up for the main attraction falling short. Overall, the experience felt overpriced for what was offered. We left feeling disappointed and probably wouldn't return. read more

Let me lead off with this: ALL THE WORKERS AT THIS LOCATION ARE SO NICE! from the front desk to bartender to servers and even the valet. Everyone are so nice and they deserve to be recognized Food - if you're coming in and sitting at the bar to do a la carte, get the burger and full day happy hour! What a bang for the buck! If you're doing the AYCE normal package, they're consistent, and falls only to their midtown location. But it might also just be the vibe of the Manhattan location . I've been here 3 times already and I'll continue to come back. read more

My experience was underwhelming. I decided to come here for my birthday dinner. The food was decent. Not the greatest I've had when it comes to Churrascarias but also not the worst. It's also a chain restaurant so I wasn't expecting much. The same cuts of meats were on rotation. I got tired of waiting for new cuts. I did get a total of 9 different meats but again, for the price tag $69 PP, not much of it was "Premium meat" I tried the Picanha (This I had to ask for as they weren't circling around with it as well as the Ribeye which both only came out once) I was not at all impressed with the taste either it was bland. I will put a run down on the meat I was offered below while rating it. 1- Picanha- 3/5 (Asked for it and only came out once) 2- Garlic steak bites -3/5 (Rotation for 2 hours) 3- bacon wrapped chicken bites 4/5 (Rotation 2 hours) 4- garlic steak bites 3/5 (Rotation as well) 5- Parmesan pork bite 2/5 (Rotation) 6- Ribeye steak 3/5 (Came out once) 7- Skirt Steak 5/5 (Came out twice) 8- Lamb 5/5 (Came out twice) 9- Sausage 0/5 it truly was so gross. (The most offered on rotation) No other meat was offered. This is what was on rotation throughout the night. I've had better in other places. It's not "Premium" meats. It's standard cuts of meat aside from the Picanha and Ribeye which we had to ask for. The Market Table didn't look fresh, I ate a few items that were flavorless. The Brazilian bread was amazing as was the mashed potatoes.. They don't really have a non-alcoholic section so I got some Brazilian cherry Ginger-ale. Overall rating 3/5 and I don't plan to ever visit again. There is only Valet parking outside and there is no fee but the ticket will read "Just Tip" read more

My boyfriend and I were really excited to try this place... how could you say no to a Brazilian steakhouse? We went with his coworkers on a Saturday night. The salad bar and sides were fantastic. I love the cheese bread. The meat, however, wasn't that great... it was either overcooked, not seasoned enough, or burnt. Some of the meat didn't even make it to our table. We had to specially request the filet mignon to be brought to our table at the end of the night. The waitress was very nice. She checked in on us whenever she can. read more

Since this location opened, have been here a few times for celebrations. Sadly have been finding the experience less satisfying each time. My family though likes to indulge in the grilled meats sometimes so we returned again recently. The staff who were taking care of our table were really nice; like when we requested something, we were accommodated. For one, the meats weren't being offered to us as much as in the central dining area so we had to mention this, and they relayed to the kitchen. Also the same one was brought over 3x in a short amt of time but not other cuts. We had to request for the fruits to be prepared and someone did come out to replenish. Other people were waiting for them for a while too so once ready, some were finished right away. We were waiting for the better cuts of meat and were told we had to ask for them bec some easily get dry. Understandable but when we did request for them, they were brought over kind of late in the meal. One in our group had the market table and 1 meat, which used to be offered in smaller portions but 2x. Now, meat is served only once so it dries up so quickly. Towards the end of the meal, noticed less of the waitstaff in the dining area, maybe bec of the private party? The Fogo rewards program changed and can now earn a reward per person after each visit, via phone number. (Read FAQs). Make sure to join. read more

Came here to celebrate a birthday during brunch hour, and we had a great experience. The staff was friendly, helpful, and took the time to explain all the different meats. Brunch actually includes the same cuts they serve at dinner, which was a nice surprise. Everything we tried was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Obviously, if you don't like certain proteins you'll skip them, but overall the quality was excellent. The pork belly with honey drizzled on top was incredible it cut through the fat and made the flavors pop. The cheese bread they bring to the table is delicious, but be careful not to fill up on it! The bar had a large variety of options considering it was brunch, and the Salad Bar had soup, salads, and even some breakfast items (I'm sure this changes for dinner). Drinks were very good as well, and they had some nice specials going on. One helpful tip from our server: if you want the higher-end cuts like filet or ribeye, just ask and they'll bring them around. Overall, a really solid experience and a great place to celebrate. read more

If indulgence had an address, it would be this Brazilian steakhouse. From the moment you walk in, the space sets the tone: upscale, refined, and effortlessly luxurious. The unlimited dining experience is pure abundance -- expertly carved cuts brought tableside, each one more flavorful and perfectly cooked than the last, with a variety that makes every round exciting. The staff truly elevates the experience. Warm, welcoming, and impressively attentive, they anticipate your needs without ever hovering. Even during peak hours, service feels seamless. A special shout-out to the bartenders -- drinks were crafted to perfection and arrived surprisingly fast despite the bar buzzing with energy. This is absolutely the kind of place meant to be enjoyed with friends -- lingering over cocktails, sharing laughs, and savoring every bite. If you're looking for a night out to fine dine this spot delivers on all fronts. Highly recommend!! read more

I used reservations and was seated quickly for the 3 pm lunch crowd. I had the $69 chiaroscuro meal, sparkling water with lime and ice. Lots of meats, from well, medium, medium well, finally medium rare. The salad bar is always Beuno, and they have a wide drink ensemble for any palate. All Fogo de Chaos serve the same, so you and your party will not be disappointed. I have been to 7 different sites, all are very good. I ended the meal with a cup of cappuccino which sealed the deal for me. read more

When Fogo first opened ....we loved it, a nice modern restaurant in Elmhurst. I've been here like 10x. We prefer this one compared to the other locations. I've recommended it to others but lately the food and drinks are not consistently good. Even they noticed inconsistencies in the food. Sometimes it's too salty or the steaks are chewier. There are certain days that the salad bar is fresher, the meats taste better. We can even tell when a good bartender is making our drinks that day... they rarely ever serve bacon... I've tried their HH menu, the Chileans sea bass, their wagyu...the crab cake was pretty good. Lobster has no flavor. Wagyu's good. Served on top of a salt block. We had leftovers and since some pieces weren't as seasoned, I gave a lil bit to some feral cats. Burger's good but extremely greasy...if I get it, I usually just eat a few bites. It's pretty filling cuz it's so fatty. We came last Sunday which I knew was one of the days to avoid...but L still wanted to go. It was actually very busy, we had reservations. We still were seated near the kitchen since it was so full. Usually we sit in the main area or the side, so we didn't get our usual server... who is great. He's really nice and helpful. Best server at Fogo though everyone is pretty nice. The salad bar... yep not as good.. the potatoes weren't fully cooked. The corn was very chewy. Bacon not available. I actually felt like having some bread and butter but no bread ...only butter. The bean soup was just liquid, so I had to wait till they refilled it but by the time they did ..I was already full from my drinks. L liked his reg. salad which I never get. Papaya wasn't sweet. The meats weren't as tasty. The meats were cold so cold steak does not taste good. When we finished ...a different server was picking up the plates and glasses and drops one glass right next to me. She apologized..luckily I finished that drink so it was mostly empty. We're gonna take a break from Fogo. read more

Even though we paid $54 a person for the best of Brazil promotion, which does not include the best cuts of meat, it does include the market table, it's still not a reasonable price after drinks, taxes, tip. Came to $100 a person. The market table was minimally stocked, when platters were empty, you had to hunt someone down to have them refilled. It did not seem as if it was anyone's job to periodically check the market table. One of the meats which was pork with garlic was undercooked. A little scary. Was not impressed with the selection of meat or the quality. We have been here once before, maybe it's a place we'll go every five years or so. Just because it takes that long for you to forget that it's not really such a great place in the first place. read more

On a Wednesday afternoon when you don't have work Thursday morning and looking for a Happy hour spot after 6pm. ALL DAY HAPPY HOUR!! Ofcourse I made sure to pay a visit to Fogo De Chão.

On a weekend just after lunchtime, the restaurant wasn't too loud or crowded. The servers came by often with more meat. The pork chop was a 9.5/10. The skirt steak was a juicy 6.5/10. Despite the pork belly's oiliness, it was a 9/10. The picanha had a roasted flavor and was juicy --7.5/10. The sirloin didn't particularly stand out to me. read more

We stopped in for some drinks and ended up having a really nice time. I didn't realize they have happy hour every day--even on weekends--which was a great surprise.

Loved all the steak and enjoyed the salad bar! The sides were very tasty as well. I was sad I couldn't take my scraps home for my dog but I would definitely go back! read more

Beautiful, sunny atmosphere! Tasteful decor. DELICIOUS, tender, well-seasoned Skirt Steak and all you can eat salad buffet! The downside - ABSOLUTELY NO takeout unless it's a few strips of meat left on your plate! Dunno why since you're paying top $. Anyway, walk it all off by taking a stroll across the street into the Queens Center Mall. The overall experience was a good one. read more

Made a early lunch reservation and was quickly seated. We chose the $49 Sunday lunch all you can eat meats and sides/salad bar. The skirt steak always my favorite. They have one sauce that you can get and you can pass on that. Drinks are refillable, there is plenty of parking. Would recommend if you never tried! read more

I have been here once last year and then this week. Both times were somewhat good experiences but with a few issues each. The place is huge and they have a salad bar, nice dim lights, two floors. The first time they gave us terrible, flat Coca Cola. Three times! but they were fast in service and servers were attentive. We were sitting in the middle of the main room. This time they sat us all the way in the back and our table seemed hidden away, where cutlery was stored. Therefore we were forgotten every now and then. But also the meats were a bit weird this time... some of them were too full of garlic, others were not enough flavory. Doesn't matter. I'll try again and see what happens! read more

Came here on one of the busiest nights, Valentine's Day. Initially we missed our reservation by a few minutes past the grace period of 15 minutes but the restaurant still honored it and after waiting 45 minutes we were still able to sit. Now me personally I don't eat meat BUT if you're a big meat eater then this is the place for you. They had limited alternatives (ex. Seafood) but like most steakhouses they had salmon. Salmon was okay for the most part nothing special to me. Lobster mash potatoes was good. Open bar for certain appetizers (salad and fruits/ vegetable) The concept of the place is basically all you can eat (meat/steaks only and it cost more). However, it's worth it as you get to try different meats/steaks. Staff come to each table asking if parties want to try the meat. Also you pay extra for the sides. Service was great though! Staff were all friendly and attentive. Inside was dark and intimate. Some couples did bring their small child/infant. My review is really limited as I did not try the meat/steaks. So I'd recommend this restaurant if a person is big on this food concept and/or menu items. read more

Second time visiting this location and we are so happy with our experience. All the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. Jesus and Min were definate stand outs. The food was great. Cuts of beef are so delicious. I appreciate that they dont rush you out either. Place is clean and very comfortable. Will definately be back. read more

Absolutely love this place as we make it a habit to go at least 2x a year. The meats are tasty as well as the buffet. I will say certain meats they bring out more often than others. If there is a certain meat you love and want more of, just let them know and they'll accommodate you. Great atmosphere and pretty good drinks read more

Great experience here at this branch of fogo de chao in elmhurst. Wonderful churascaria that was brought around. Ambiance was wonderful. Loved how we ordered the wagyu ancho ribeye and they cut it at the table with a show. Great suggestion of ordering it medium rare as it was brought up to temperature on the salt rock presentation. As a lot of tables were ordering this item i knew it was the item to get. Tender and a great cut. The churascaria items to get were the picanha, chorizo sausage, and the sirloin. All wonderful cuts of meat and tender. Great table service and wonderful setting for a group or to catch up with a friend and family gatherings. A recommend. read more

Valentina was a great server. She was very attentive server and very kind to our table. We had a table of 9 and we did get a lot of drinks and water refills which I was very happy with. I only wish I didn't not have to stand up and get my own plates when the meats started coming. The cuts of meats were pretty good, and they give complimentary chimichurri! They have a bar where you stand up and get your own hot food or fruits and such, and they had roasted garlic! I love roasted garlic - i did not see this at other fogo de chao locations. I also wish the meat came out a bit more frequently, but nonetheless i thoroughly enjoyed the steak especially the picanha and lamb! For $50 ($63 with tip and tax) it is very good value. read more

Fogo de Chão - Brazilian Near Me - Elmhurst, New York

food is superb but they overbook tables. even with our reservation , we waited almost two hours to be seated!! the manager should be ashamed of himself/herself for doing this to people who are coming to spend their money. staff is clearly overwhelmed here. it seems all the managements cares about is money. read more

Came here for a date this past Saturday and it was my first time. Despite having a reservation we still had to wait approx 30-40 minutes to be seated. The salad bar area was quite nice but the main is their meats, obviously. At first the servers with the meat came around one after another almost without even giving us a chance to taste the meat we already gathered on our plates. I guess thats a good thing but then they stopped coming around... so if there was a particular cut you liked and wanted again, there was no telling when it would make its way back to your table. I even saw servers with the meat just completely skip us. Its an all you can eat spot so I was disappointed that we werent given the chance to eat all we can of the meat. Our actual server was also hard to track down and he kept forgetting what we asked for such as the cocktail list or more water. I feel like the food itself was tasty but I would rather go to a regular steakhouse where I am guaranteed a big ol slab of steak and I can get full off that instead of the salads. read more

Fogo de Chao is a Brazilian Steakhouse that serves great meats with a very diverse buffet spread. This location was even better than I had imagined from the last time I had it in Manhattan. This location has a convenient valet parking lot, and the interior was very spacious, elegant and cozy. We luckily came during the Best of Brazil promotion (44$ per person) (with some of the meats) - the lamb and picanha were our favorite cuts. The buffet spread was large and diverse with so many options from soup, vegetables, grains, pastrami cuts, salmon and so much more. It was so hard resisting the buffet to save our stomaches for meat. The complimentary appetizers served at the table were also tasty. Food wise, everything tasted amazing and delicious - The deal also made it soo worth it. The service could have been a little better - we weren't served with the tongs to take the meat. It also took a while for us to get the chimichurri sauce that really elevated out meats. If not for our slow service, this would definitely have been a 5 star experience. read more

I have no complaints about my experience here. I had reservations at 7:15pm. We were about 10 mins late so we waited about 20 mins for a table. The place was very crowded with many groups of people waiting for a seat. The food was endless; it kept coming and coming. Everything was well seasoned and tasted really good. I would definitely come back to this location. They also have a parking lot with valet parking. read more

Beautiful place. Great service. Daniel and team were very tentative and my family and I felt very comfortable. My mother was pleased on her birthday. The picanha was my favorite cut there for sure. I usually go with the picanha, short rib, and rib eye. Unfortunately I felt the rib eye was a little overcooked. Overall all the meat cuts from sausages to skirt steak were good. Disappointed I didn't see Bobo de camarao at the buffet portion. I also felt there was too many vegetable portions at the buffet. No feijao tropeiro. No farofa! Pao de queijo was delicious. Yuka fries off the charts. Drinks were good. Place was packed and the dessert package is well worth it. Be prepared to eat. There's plenty. They offer to go trays. Overall experience is a thumbs up. Prices are always high at places like this, but the experience was positive. Beautiful bar and ambiance. read more

Five of us came here to celebrate my mom's 82nd birthday. Due to a pet accident we had to switch our reservation location, they were terrific in doing so. Four indulged in the full meat courses and one just ordered a salmon platter with was very well seasoned and the vegetables were fresh and crispy. My absolute favorite were the cheese breads! The service is extremely attentive, loved it!! Mom was made to feel special on her day and we were thankful that they took very good care of the sugar-free cake we brought. They lit candles on it and brought it over. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and very clean. Valet parking available. read more

The food was okay, the staff and service is great! The ambiance is nice and comfortable. It's relaxing and perfect for any occasion. We did the full churrasco.

I decided to finally swing by this spot after taking the Express bus home. It was an all-day happy hour, and I took full advantage. The ambiance was pretty empty on a Tuesday night, but I was hungry, and it was getting late. I sat in the bar area and ordered the happy hour Chardonnay along with spiced chicken Sliders and Crispy polenta fries. It was plenty of food for one person, so I took the leftovers home. I enjoyed my experience, and my entire solo dining meal was only $25, and that is including tip. read more

If you like Brazillian Steakhouse this where you should go! Premiere meats and side dishes! Location: It is located along 59th Avenue along Queens, it is actually beside Macys. The interior is nice, cozy and little bit upscale. There is free vallet parking as well. Service: they have the best employees! They always ask us if everything is fine every 5 minutes. Lol Food: The food was good! The meats are well cooked, tender and you can see where they are grilling it. One thing is that I felt like the same meats came to us twice or trice. For the price of $86 per person, I felt like I'm tasting the same meat. I even refused some of them cause I already know that I had it. Probably during our dine in there are only 6-7 meats that were given to us. The side dishes were amazing! I came back for the watermelon with spice and cheese! And they gave us small bread as well Price rating: 8/10. Quite pricey for the same meats that keep coming back to us. I will definitely come back here because I love Brazilian steak! Just hoping that they will have more varieties of meat. read more

Enjoyed the selections today, including the picanha and the lamb picanha, which was moderately gamey. Lamb chops were also full of flavor. Beef rib was quite tender though needed additional salt to season. Peri peri sauce on the chicken thighs was exquisite, while the filet mignon had its requisite tenderness. Pork belly was disappointing, as it was primarily fat and offered little meat. Pork chop was on the drier side. Rib eye was a solid option; top sirloin also was robust in flavor. read more

First, I'd like to acknowledge our waiter Kaung as he was super attentive and smiled the entire evening! Even though the bartender was a little behind (short staffed) for the night, Kaung made sure he checked in and provided updates. Overall, every server was incredible, friendly and provided wonderful service. Now, we come to this location for the quality of the food as the salad bar is always fully and fresh, the meats are always flowing and flavorful plus perfect temperature. Only tiny complaint was that the rice seemed a little off the night we went and the sweet plantains were eh okay. Best part about this location too is the cleanliness and decorations as the restaurant was cozy and rich with artwork and a beautiful wine wall. It was the perfect place to celebrate my father's 65th birthday. Thank you Fogo! read more

Very nice restaurant. We were seated on the lower level since we were for Restaurant week. The Meat Selections wasn't a lot, maybe because we were there at 530p - too early? since there were only a few tables, they were probably offering more meat when the place filled with more ppl. The buffet bar has many selections. Beans, salad, fruits, soup, breads, and many cheese options and pairing. read more

My husband and I came with his two aunts as a belated birthday meal. This place was his request since we remember going to a churrascaria in Brazil and had an amazing time. I'm breaking down everything below into two parts, review w/ recommendations of what to get and then the explanation of my overall rating. ******* Ambiance - Very nice, classy and clean - you may want to dress up to match the environment which feels like a venue you would attend a wedding or special occasion. We are relieved that the music wasn't overpowering nor offensive (for ex, reggaeton and street-appealing songs which would have spoiled a lot for my husband) Food - Mostly great but some strong advice here - We recommend that you do the following as it is an all-you-can-eat buffet: 1. NO LEFTOVERS ALLOWED TO TAKE HOME - Although they donate to "No Kid Hungry" (assuming this is where the leftover food goes or maybe City Harvest too?), be aware when you go to the salad and buffet bar (which has an impressive range of food) that you cannot take any leftovers home. 2. RECOMMENDED IN THE BUFFET - Although everything was good, we strongly recommend the following: PARFAITS - These are small shot glasses of fresh fruit on top. Below the fruit is yogurt and granola and thought it would be no big deal. I was wrong, it was VERY creamy and somehow even tasted somewhat like goat or sheep's milk which is better for your health. Best of all, it was NOT filled with sugar (which most cheaper yogurts do to the detriment of your health. You get enough sugar from the fresh fruit and granola inside.) BLACK BEANS (at the end of the buffet) - It was slow cooked in pork, was tasty. 3. MEAT - We all ordered only the single cut of the following so please refer to other customer's reviews for other meat preferences: Picanha, Cordeiro (lamb), and Frango (chicken): Out of all 3, we STRONGLY recommend the Cordeiro and Frango but THIGH meat and NOT chicken breast. (See below for my explanation about all of this.) 4. WINE - Seeing that this restaurant won an award for its wine selection, I insisted to my husband we try one glass of red wine. The one highly recommended by one waitress is a particular Cabernet Sauvignon one from California and its vineyard has a long name. (Owner/Manager, can you please respond and let me know what the name is?) DEFINITELY try something off of their wine list, this is the place to enjoy it with your meal! ********** Reasons for Removal of 3 Stars: 1. We had to chase down a waiter to get our glass of wine we ordered or else we would never received it. We understand it is only one glass but my tolerance level is very low so I cannot consume a lot of alcohol so my husband and I had to share it and his two aunts do not drink. (You need to understand also that we had a loved one who was a former alcoholic and had severe health issues I do not need to go into. Giving favor to only clientele who consume a lot of alcohol alone is discriminating towards those who do not for health reasons.) 2. I was told that the best FRANGO (chicken) cuts was chicken breast but despite arriving tasting nice, it quickly dried up. ADVICE: Tell your waitstaff serving chicken the differences between different cuts of chicken that chicken breast is for those who want the lowest amount of fat and for those who are allowed to consume more calories, fat and protein to serve thigh meat. I wish the chicken breast was served more of the chimichurri kind of sauce to pour or dip the pieces in since it became dry within 10 minutes. 3. Serve some kind of light sauce to go with the red meat (not lamb which is more fatty and fine as-is) to make it more flavorful. Although fresh, it was kind of bland. 4. As my husband and his relatives do not frequent buffets (but do go to good restaurants whenever we can), we were not told in advance of no leftovers before we began our meal. I wasted a lot of food that would have gone to others in need, I felt very upset and embarrassed! read more

This place is always a gem ! I went with a party of 20 so we definitely had a great time. We were able to secure the private room since we had such a large party which was awesome. (Only complaint is the lighting) it got super dark at times but the staff was awesome and so generously brought out some table side lamps for us The drinks were flowing. The meats were coming around every few minutes and the unlimited salad bar had an assortment of great selections. The night couldn't have gone better ! Thank you guys for a wonderful time. read more
