    Cream brûlée cheese cake

    Absolutely great customer service and A+ Menu of high end Meats. 5th time there and always feels like the first.

    Celebrated my parents 32 anniversary here and although I've been to a different Fogo de Chao before, our experience at this new location felt truly special, exceptional and unique! Kim, Orlando and all the staff made our dining experience seamless by keeping our drinks filled, swapping out our plates and bringing more meats to our liking. The food was bursting with flavor, presented beautifully and at the proper temperature. The restaurant itself was so clean and beautiful, from the foyer to the restroom. If youve been to the downtown Fogo, this one will reinvent the definition of a fine dining experience for you. It blows everything else out of the water. The prices are reasonable considering the amount of food you can get. Highly reccommend!

    They offer many of the same selections and ambiance as other Brazilian steakhouses, but their service really stands out. Always great service when we are here. They also have a great happy hour and brunch on weekends if you're not looking for the full dinner experience. It's great that there's a location on the Northwest side of town now!

    Happy hour picanha burger with crispy yuca fries

    Came for the all day happy hour and was not disappointed! This location is beautiful and tons of parking. We came in during dinner time and there was open seating at the bar, no reservation needed. The bartenders and servers were so helpful with the happy hour menu and we loved talking to them throughout the night! It blows my mind how affordable the food was for the amount and quality you get! They provided their delicious cheese bread with a sweet bacon, so yummy! For appetizers, we ordered the saucy legs, empanadas, and yuca fries for $6 each. Great deal, but they all did taste a bit dry and could've had more flavor. The $10 picanha burger is probably the best burger I've ever had! Melts in your mouth, great flavor, very cheesy which I love, and it's a very generous portion. The filet mignon board with chimichurri was delicious, perfectly cooked and under $20. Highly recommend the all-day happy hour for delicious, high quality food without breaking the bank!

    The new Fogo de Chao is a BEAUTIFUL restaurant. It's super convenient location and ample parking is fantastic - and so much easier than the downtown location (which is honestly why we don't visit more often). The host, servers, and manager were all so very gracious and hospitable - perfect customer service. Kudos to the team!!!! Fogo was offering an INCREDIBLE Veteran's Day appreciation special for 50% for Vets and 10% for their guests on their full or indulgent Churrasco! Not to mention, our 4yo daughter was complimentary. Both my husband and I are US Army Veterans and truly appreciated the recognition. Per usual, their food was good! I honestly go for the salad bar mostly (lol). My hubby is the carnivore and skip's that part every time. The lentil soup they had?! Sooooo good, had a little tang to it - that I loved!! We enjoyed the bottom sirloin - very tender and flavorful. However, my hubby's desired Ribeye only came at the very end when we were essentially tired of waiting. More rotations would've been nice. There was another steak, which name I forget, that was super tough. It had potential though! Oh, and I LOVE their mini popovers - I could eat several bowls of them, hahaha. They also featured some mocktails that all sounded delicious - and the sour I elected to try was fantastic! If you're looking for a good Brazilian Steakhouse experience in a beautiful local, give this location a go! We will be back :)

    A solid 3 rating. Went for a lunch celebration at work for a 10 year anniversary. The interior decor is flawless. Went with a group of 10 people, lots of room and the interior is large & bright. Onto the food. I'd rank this one dead last with Chama & Brasão leading the pack. They need to figure out their grills. All meat that came out was overcooked. Would ask for medium rare and the meat would come back medium into medium well. A true disappointment enough for the general consensus of our group to determine we would scratch this from our list of all you can eat meat spots. The salad bar was good, and I did think it was interesting they had rice as a side too. The other thing to dock a star was the service. The workers were not properly trained. They had all kinds of people crossing other's paths, had a waiter spill silverware, others coming by with a chicken and not even a min later having a different person coming with the same type of meat. We found ourselves waiting for cuts of meat even though we had asked for them. Same waited a while to come back for water refills. We were never given a clean plate after going for salads, we had to ask for them. Just basic stuff that hopefully they can work on to make better.

    I absolutely LOVED this place so much. The overall vibe is top tier compared to other Brazilian steakhouses. Drinks were fabulous and food was fantastic. We started off a little rough with our server who kept disappearing on us from the beginning, somehow there was a super nice woman who actually worked at the bar or was a connoisseur and she ended up taking care of us, which we greatly appreciated her since we came for my birthday dinner! I cannot wait to come back.

    My friends surprised me with Fogo de Chao lunch date for my birthday, I was so excited to try the new location. Service from the waitstaff was sometimes slow but overall good! I did go with an empty glass for a while and did have to ask for certain meats more than once. We did get mashed potatoes and they were just set on the table, I'm kind of used to them being served onto my plate when at a Brazilian steakhouse. Now onto my experience with the gauchos.... A gaucho came to my table and as he sliced the meat with the knife pointed in my direction he signaled for me grab the piece, he then continued to cut in my direction which ultimately ended up with me being cut by the knife. I was in awe as to how this could've happened to me. I don't think that with proper training there should have ever been a possibility of me being injured. Anyways the manger did try to make up for it and the gaucho did apologize. I do not want to focus solely on this negative experience with the gaucho. The food was great! Meats were perfectly prepared. Seasoned and cooked to perfection. Their onion and cheese dish with honey was fabulous. However I do wish they had roasted pineapple with cinnamon. We came on a Monday and the restaurant was pretty slow which did create a very relaxing environment and allowed us to enjoy our food at a much slower pace. I'd probably be back here sometime in the future but I will be honest I have been left with some anxiety.

    Fast service! Delicious dinning! Amazing meats! Great atmosphere! Love the salad bar. I think there the fastest servers I have ever had. The steak and beef was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend them for your next Brazilian experience! What kept them from 5 Star was this weird post dinner "up sale" for reviews and drinks - just was an odd interaction.

    This location is beautiful! I was a fan of Fogo in LA. I recently relocated to San Antonio and wanted my dad to see how delicious the food is at Fogo. It did not disappoint and it was even better than the LA Fogo! Service was amazing too!

    We visited for restaurant week. The vibe of this new location was great. It's so nice! The hostess was very polite and we were seated very quickly. We order drinks and they were a bit delayed. It wasn't a huge deal, but then the salad bar was pretty picked over and not replenished for a while. The meat service was also very sparse! The assistant manager, Crystal was good about checking in and asking what we were waiting on and did send things we wanted our way; however, it took a very long time. We definitely didn't get as much as we'd have wanted, but it was getting late. Because it was a restaurant special dessert was included. Again, after ordering it took at least 25 minutes for dessert to arrive. It wasn't very good. Several of us ordered crème brûlée, one chocolate cheesecake, and a tres leches cake. The cheesecake was the best thing of the night. The cake was super dry and the crème brûlée was clumpy. Our waiter was good and the assistant manager was very aware of the service and quality of food. She did apologize as they were understaffed and she acknowledged the food issues. But even at restaurant week prices nothing was done to make it right. I do appreciate the hospitality and the acknowledgment but we still spent about $80 each for subpar food and pretty bad service because of the large party in the private room. Most of the meat service was in there. Not sure I'd return. There are better options for Brazilian steakhouses.

    Molten Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream

    Went for my birthday brunch at this new location. It was a bit tricky because they closed both sides of the frontage road along 1604 near I-10 so we had to figure out how to get to the entrance since the turnarounds were blocked. I called to get some specifics but the gal didn't know how to direct me. She said to just use Apple or Google maps. I told her I was already using an app so she put me on hold and came back and said to use Exit 557A. I told her we'd figure it out and if we couldn't we'd cancel our reservation. We figured it out by going on I-10 by Costco & turning around, staying close to the frontage road, veering right and onto the parking lot. Just be forewarned on the weekends there may be closures. I checked in and we were seated by the window which was nice and bright. The space is nice, airy, has a modern decor with high ceilings and music was being softly piped in until later when more people came in. We were greeted by several servers who brought water, my Mimosa and Rolf who explained the menu items & offerings. We had been to a few other Brazilian BBQ places around town but not Fogo. After we looked at the menu, we both decided to get Chilean Seabass since we had grilled Lamb chops the night before. I liked how you could order the entrees which include the "Market Bar" which includes a variety of salads, Lox, Prosciutto, cheeses like Manchego slices and Parm chunks off a wheel; also includes Beets tartare, grilled Peppers, Hearts of Palm, Button Mushrooms, a Brazilian Corn salad which was bitter, not sweet; Tomato slices w/Mozzarella & Basil; Watermelon slices, Papaya and Berries; and on the other side was Linguica sausage chunks with thick bacon that tasted like Pork Rinds in a good, crunchy way!! There was a Tomato Soup in a kettle beside the sausage and some baguette rounds and croutons with bowls w/c were easily accessible. They had a made to order Omelette station which we didn't use cos we were there for other things and they had mini Belgian waffles. I didn't have any since I was there for the entree and salad offerings. As I sipped on my Mimosa, I looked down and there was a dead Mosquito on my wine stem. I left it there and didn't make a fuss. When the Seabass came, I was still eating my salad on another plate and waiters would come by about every 2 minutes checking on us, offering to take a plate, filling water, asking how everything was, etc. I started eating my fish and noticed it was kinda greasy and needed more seasoning. I asked one server if they had soy sauce so she checked in the back but told me they didn't have any. She offered to give more lemon slices so I said that was fine. There's a Papaya Vinaigrette which has chopped onions, Papaya, Tomatoes but the fish generally needed more seasoning. Caramelized bananas, polenta and mashed potatoes were also given. The first Seabass had thin asparagus spears which were cooked fine. Halfway thru, I cut into my fish and there was a 1" black hair strand so we told the waiter, Josiah. He took it back and I told him I just wanted 1/2 a fish so they gave me another whole one which was much more moist and less greasy but the asparagus was overdone & greasy. I think they probably do better with the Brazilian meats vs. fish dishes. The servers were apologetic, informed me how much time it would take and we were patient. We received a few apologies from the staff and I think a manager. Moving forward, I hope they can follow thru with the quality control or protocol before the dishes are sent out to customers. That being said, the service was always helpful and checking on us and they ended up comping the Seabass. I thought that was sincere and I understand things happen. Just giving another serving would've been fine and we would've gladly paid for it. Since it was my birthday, I got a free dessert from the menu. I decided on the Molten Chocolate Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream and a sliced Strawberry. Yay! It had a candle and Happy Birthday icing written on the plate. I was going to try the Chocolate Licor 43 that Alizay(?), the female employee had suggested as we were talking about Carajillos and Espresso Martinis when we first arrived, but she never came by with the sample after lunch. It's okay. Perhaps next time. One last note...I almost fell on the slippery probably waxy faux wooden floor. I thought it was my heels but when we left, I told my husband to check it out and he said it was slippery too. He thought it might have been the cleaner they used. The bathrooms were clean and had a modern decor as well. This is an area with new developments and shops about to open. I applaud their efforts for service and except for some hiccups, the ambiance and food is good...esp. the chewy, warm Brazilian Cheese Bread which my husband chowed down on!

    I came strolling into this place with an hour before they closed and I know they rolled their eyes…read morewhen they saw me lol. But I didn't feel rushed. I was graciously sat. The ambiance is nice and the setup is a traditional Brazilian steakhouse style. They bring the meat cuts around and you choose what you try. In the center they have the appetizer, fruit and salad station. I got full fairly quickly so I was in and out within 45 minutes. The food was delicious and the staff was very attentive.

    My wife is Brazilian, and she agreed that this is the best Brazilian steakhouse we've ever been to…read more The service is amazing; every time I stood up, a waiter was there when I got back to pull my seat out. Every. Single. Time. Maury made my wife feel at home by speaking Portuguese, which made her day. Even as I write this in the lobby, a waitress just stopped and asked if she could get me some water. On top of making me feel like royalty, they were all incredibly friendly and joined in on our conversations, even bringing my wife a flan that had "congratulations" written in chocolate after we told them that we'd just received incredible news this morning. Now to the food. Every bite, of everything, was heaven. They source their meats better than any other steakhouse I've been to, and it shows. Perfectly seasoned, perfectly cooked and melt-in-your-mouth. Will definitely be back! Thank you for an amazing time.

Though there was a glitch on our online reservation where I got text reminders of our reservation, the hostess was not able to locate our reservation (should definitely fix that as it can be frustrating), we have another amazing experience after they seated us promptly. Located right next to the N Loop 1604 W, it is located in the plaza right next to the Heritage Oaks Office Park and Stewart Title Company. Not too difficult to find. We're always able to find parking at their large outdoor parking lot. We were celebrating our mother's 75th birthday and our uncle's 50th year wedding anniversary. We were well served by Jorge and Carlos Torres. They were extremely attentive, friendly and recognized our special celebration event. The food was amazing; picanha, filet, prime rib, beef ribs, shrimp were excellently prepared and warm. The salad bar had great variety. The Carajillo performance was amazing! Because of the great service by Jorge & Carlos Torres, as well as the great food, we will definitely come back again. Keep up the good work Galpao Gaucho, Jorge and Carlos!

    We almost missed this restaurant because there is a little roadwork when you turn into this…read morerestaurant, we are glad that didn't! If this review was purely on service, this would be a 5 star complete rave of a review with nothing else to say. All I can say is that my wife and I were out for the night, and we felt like we were really being treated special by our waitress and truly all the waitstaff that came to our table. I will be back to this place, and it will become a local favorite of mine based on the service and atmosphere along. So let's talk about the food! Overall I would say this was a very good Brazilian steakhouse. A standout for me were the spicy and garlic picanha. Both of these were so flavorful and juicy we were talking about them long after we left for the night. The shrimp as well was spiced and cooked perfectly. We felt like for our specific visit the other meats, while cooked well were a little less flavorful than I normally like. We also felt that compared to other Brazilian steakhouses there was limited offerings on the salad bar, however I would not reduce review points based on this because the price is outstanding. The inconsistency of the meat offerings is the only reason this is a 4 star review. The last point I'll talk about is the cocktail offerings, this is another place where Galpao Gaucho shines. I believe that the Caipirinhas I had was one of, if not the best one I've ever had in my life. All the cocktails that we had were mixed well, and had a nice punch to them as well. I loved this place, and will certainly go back, this is a nice little treasure trove of meat on 1604 you should treat yourself to when you have a chance.

    I have mixed feelings about this one…read more.. I am something of a regular at Brazilian steakhouses. This restaurant has so much that is going right for it. It is beautiful! Great decor! Plenty of side dishes! Good table service. Approachable management. Great location. But if I am completely honest, I thought that the food offerings here were "very good". Nothing here was exceptional. That includes the meat choices as well as the salad bar as well as the sides. The one exception was the Keylime pie that we had for dessert, which was outstanding! There is something different about the way they prepare the meat here that is not quite as good as I've had at other Brazilian steakhouses. Maybe it is what they cook it on or the spicing that they use, but I would have to say that the food was just very good, which at this price point to me is the minimum that I should expect. Again, very attentive staff, and they took care of my nephew whose birthday we were celebrating. And there is a good chance that we will be back based purely on location and how gorgeous this restaurant is. I would like to see something truly outstanding offered in the meat selection, going forward, though.

    Texas de Brazil in San Antonio was an outstanding dining experience from start to finish. The food…read morewas absolutely delicious, with an incredible variety of perfectly cooked meats that just kept coming. Every cut was flavorful, tender, and served hot, and the salad bar and sides were fresh, well-stocked, and high quality. The service was very good, attentive, friendly, and well-paced. The staff checked in often, made sure requests were met, and kept the experience smooth without ever feeling rushed. For the amount of food and the overall quality, the price is more than fair and truly a great value. This is a place you leave full and satisfied. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a very good meal in San Antonio.

We tried the Pollinator Tequila and it was delicious. The candied bacon was perfect and the Lobster Bisk was so delicious with a little bit of fresh grated Parmesan cheese on top. The Salmon and shrimp were out of this world. I could have eaten just that and been satisfied. The skewers of flame grilled meat (Filet, Beef Rib, New York and many others) were all mouth watering and just kept coming. The atmosphere was cozy and upscale. Dim lighting and cozy ambiance made for a perfect relaxed dining experience. Our waitress Susie was so personable and attentive she was the cherry on top of a perfect evening! We will definitely be back!

    Went down to Avenida for my birthday dinner. The food was…read moredefinitely better than the other Brazilian steakhouses in the area! The service started out decent, but then slowly faded. Dishes were needing to get replaced or taken away, refills being unattended and the server not really checking in on us. I had to ask for a dessert menu to order a dessert which ended up being free which was nice. I believe it was the manager who we had to flag down to get service at the end. He seemed very nice with good hospitality. I'm rating it high based on the food being very good. I would even give a 5 star if the service was good. I don't understand why we got the service we did but all in all the food was very good!!

    On the advice of a good friend the suggestion was to try J-Prime Steakhouse's"Social Hour." I have…read moreheard about many times but I never found the perfect occasion to try it. But at my age anytime you are over ground is the best occasion. I have heard it is real fancy. And it is. Do not come in Crocs and sweatpants. This is not that restaurant. It is that restaurant where you should make reservations. It is also a place that emphasizes presentation and service. We came right when it opened and we informed the hostess of our reservations. We were seated in the bar area. Once inside I was struck by its ambience. It is sleek, dark and dare say "sexy." Our server, who was extremely attentive came to our table and took our drink orders. My partner ordered an Old Fashioned and me, a Lagunitas IPA. Whilst waiting for our drinks I looked over the room. One thing I noticed was a barrier that separated the bar area and the dining room. The Social Hour is meant, to socialize. I saw couples leaning into each other. Another group were drinking martinis with a seafood tower, almost touching the ceiling. Conversations were had. Romantic glances were exchanged. It isn't a casual place like Bubba's 33 nor Texas Roadhouse. It feels like a place best suited for a date night or an anniversary. I'm wondering how the dining room area is? The Social Hour does offer some drink and small bites specials. We ordered the kabob with pineapple, brussel sprouts, and sliders. They were all pretty great. It reminded me of the same experience as in partaking in tapas. I would remiss if I didn't relay our service here, it was excellent. Our server, Holiday(I hope I spelled it right.) treated us like we were the only patrons there. I've gone to upscale restaurants where staff looks at you up and down. Or they try to size you up. This is not that place. Which was so refreshing. If this place went above and beyond my expectations why didn't I give it four stars? In my opinion I think that a place that creates an upscale experience needs to have a few beers on tap. Even places like Wing Daddy's or Chili's offers a few beers on tap. Secondly, the bar area seating feels a bit tight. I wonder when the dinner crowd arrives would you be in the lap, of someone else's conversation? I still highly recommend this place. The Social Hour area is perfect for a date or an anniversary. The service and food were both excellent. And I've never been to a place where you are given warm hand towels. It reminded me of that scene with Adam Sandler in "The Wedding Singer" minus Billy Idol.
