    My plate with various items- roasted veggies, corn salad, greens with basil dressing, bean salad, feta, pickled veggies, bread.

    I wanted to go here even though my family is vegetarian. I heard good things about the salad bar. We went over lunch. The staff were very attentive. The restaurant is a large space. The salad bar selection was really good. Roasted veggies, salads (bean, green bean, jicama, tabouleh), cheese, fruit, and tomato soup. Most things were marked as vegetarian or vegan. Some things were not indicated but assumed it was ok to eat (jicama salad). There was a little bit of meat in one area and the black beans had pork (all labeled). They also served some hot dishes directly to the table - Brazilian cheese bread, plantains, polenta fries, and mash potatoes. They brought out more if you wanted it. Most of the items were flavored well and good range of selection. If you are vegan, there are still a good number of options to make a meal, but it would not be my first choice to come here if a group of vegans. Overall happy with the experience and will come back.

    We went to Fogo de Chão for the first time to celebrate our anniversary and honestly had such a great experience. From the start, the servers were friendly and super attentive, constantly coming around with different cuts of meat for us to try. Our favorites were the ribeye and the picanha both were cooked perfectly. I loved that they made sure to give us the best pieces too, like the perfectly charred, flavorful edges with that crispy salt crust. The Brazilian cheese bread was so good, and we also tried the warm grilled cheese with honey (not sure what it's called, but it was amazing). Everything tasted fresh and came out hot - maybe because we went for lunch on a weekday and it wasn't too busy. We grabbed a few things from the Market Table, which were all good, but we mostly stuck with the meats. The sides were great too and nice to have when we needed a little break from all the meats. Since we mentioned on our reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary, our waitress told us we could get a complimentary dessert. We chose the tres leches cake and it was delicious. They even brought it out with a little "Happy Anniversary" plate, which was such a nice touch. The restaurant itself felt upscale but still comfortable, and everything especially the Market Table was kept really clean. For the price, especially at lunch, it felt like a great value. At other nicer restaurants you'd easily spend $50+ on just one steak, but here you get to try multiple cuts. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommend, especially for a special occasion.

    We went on July 3 and had a 5:30 reservation. My husband and son went to use the lavatory, and it seems I disappeared. The snotty, arrogant little girl at the desk pointedly ignored me and walked away. Fortunately, a gentleman asked if I'd like to be seated and got me a table. Unfortunately, the meal was the worst I've ever had at this restaurant. The selection of meat offered was less than usual; for example, they never offered sausage, and the crispy ribeye was not good. It was shocking how inattentive the servers were and how overcooked the meat was. I did ask for medium rare and got raw. Then there was the incomplete salad bar. There was no Serrano ham, a favorite of mine, and although they brought out a few more bowls, the salad bar wasn't very full or good. The soup was cold. The sugared bacon was missing after the first paltry few pieces were taken. We all agreed it was the worst Fogo experience we'd ever had.

    The food was fresh and delectable; & the staff is very attentive! The environment is calm & aesthetic that is perfect for authentic conversation.

    It was good overall, Fogo de Chão is one of the best chain restaurants there are and this location is similar to the others. I dined solo and my waiter was attentive for the most part. It took them awhile to get chimichurri which was a bit annoying and is why I am giving four stars instead of five. If I remember correctly, it ultimately ended up being one of the staff that bring out the meats that went and got my chimichurri which I am thankful for. The cold bar is nice, has a wide variety of food to pair with the variety of meats that they bring out. I liked the picanha the most as well as the fried bananas with cinnamon.

    Enjoyed our brunch here on a Sunday. I only got the market table and was very happy with the options!!!! Everyone else got the full experience and loved it. We had 2 birthdays so they give you a perk for your birthday if you sign up before you go. The cream brulee cheesecake was the best thing I have ever had and I can't wait to go back and get it again.

    My daughter decided she wanted to try Fogo de Chao for her 25th birthday dinner. If you have never been, it's an interesting experience. I made a reservation, so we were seated immediately. My dining partners had the FULL CHURRASCO which is the continuous table side serving of various meats as well as the market table (salad bar). I had the INDULGENT CHURRASCO as it included everything from the "full" as well as a choice of an "enhancement" and a dessert. This was a worthy upgrade as the lobster tail and the dessert were the highlight for me. Fogo provides you with a disk that is red on one side and says "no thanks" and the other is green and says "yes please". This is to be used to let the servers know when you would like to be offered some of the table side carved meat options or not (maybe taking a momentary break from the meat sweats). My dining partners enjoyed the variety on the salad bar, which looked great. There was roasted eggplant, asparagus, chicken salad, an apple salad, etc. I just prefer a more traditional salad myself. I chose the "butter bathed" lobster tail for my "enhancement" (Apologies forgot to take a picture of that). I enjoyed it. Also served were mashed potatoes as well as a side of plantains (think sauteed bananas) and another item that I did not try. The mashed potatoes were good. My favorite cut of meat served was the filet. It did seem that was a cut that I had to ask for when the servers inquired of any special cuts we would like, as opposed to it making the regular rounds like other items. My "indulgent" dining experience also came with a dessert, which I chose the CHOCOLATE BRIGADEIRO. It was very good, but didn't seem to match up with the description on the menu to me. It was like a nicely done chocolate cheesecake, and was served with a dab of whip cream and strawberries. I really enjoyed this. One of my dining partners chose the creme brulee. She normally loves this dish, but said she was disappointed with it. She indicated it was dry and not creamy as this dish usually is at other venues. My daughter got to choose a dessert on the house for her birthday. She chose the chocolate molten cake. She said it was moist, and pretty good. It was served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Overall, I'd say Fogo is more of a dining experience, and it's either in your wheelhouse or it's not. I had been one time previously many years ago. It was my daughter's choice for her 25th birthday and not something that would have been on my list to do otherwise. The food was good, but you are paying for the unique experience rather than for truly epic food. I've had much better food, at more traditional restaurants, for significantly less, and that's largely the reason for my rating. Everything was pretty good, but nothing was amazing, or in line with the cost, and the my dining partner's rating of the creme brulee dropped it from a 4 to a 3 star (since I can't give a 3.5). If you think the experience is your thing, it could rate higher for you. The wait staff was attentive. Fogo offers valet parking, but as it was a Sunday afternoon and no major events were happening, we were able to easily find close by parking for free.

    It has been awhile since our last visit. We've actually been frequenting a new Brazilian Grille on the north side of town. We made a reservation here so we could compare. Our service was very good on the offerings of meats and other sides brought to the table. The refills on water and tea were very very slow. The cold bar of items was ok but not nearly as good as we remembered. One did the full meal, two did the chicken only, and one did the salmon. We thought ordering the chicken we would have a half a chicken or something brought specifically to us like the piece of salmon. We found out after asking that we were able to just take any of the chicken offered by the Gauchos. I put on our reservation that it was for a birthday. But no one mentioned it at all. That was super disappointing. We were even using a birthday gift certificate so that should have been another clue to at least acknowledge the birthday. Because of the parking, location and a few other aspects, you should check out Terra Guacho on the north side. Have to say it is so much better than Fogo.

    What an amazing experience! This was my first time here & the service was amazing, the atmosphere was neat, and the food was very delicious! We loved every minute & will be back again. Definitely try their desserts as well! It's expensive, but Man, this place doesn't disappoint!

    This is the second Fogo de Chão that I've eaten at. It's a great restaurant for a large group dinner. Between the self serve salad bar and the all you can eat churrasco experience, everyone gets a nice assortment of options to pick from. They also have a few vegan and vegetarian options on their entree menu, which is one of the reasons we chose it for our group dinner. The service was wonderful and the food was delicious. They also have a nice selection of cocktails and other drinks as well as some really tasty desserts.

    Took my grandson to Fogo de Chão for a great experience and it was mouthwatering. We went for the brunch which turned into lunch! I started with those Belgian waffles, braised beef rib hash, the sweet cornbread, beef steak, lamb chops, omelette, and the exotic fruits were all amazing. The service was outstanding and we tipped everyone as they came to the table to make it more fair for employees. We plan to revisit before August to use our 50% off coupon. If you ever have coupons please be sure to read the fine print.

    Good food!!! Love the brunch menu on Saturday and Sunday, free parking on Sundays on the street . Unlimited meats, delicious salad bar, made to order omelets and the best carmalized bacon!!! Oh and be sure to get the warm cheese with honey it's to die for!!! Reservations recommended!!!

    We were celebrating a birthday so they gave us a free dessert. This was a molten lava cake.
    John P.

    If you like meat, this is a great place. This is a Brazilian steakhouse where they walk around with 10 or 12 different kinds of meat, lamb, beef, chicken, pork. All different cuts, and they walk around and you can have as much as you want. They also have what they call the market table, which has salads and cheese and vegetables, as well as rice and beans. All very fancy stuff and all incredibly delicious. The meat is excellent. They also have a fried cheese that is really good. They start you off with cheese rolls. In addition, they serve poutine, and plantains for the table. One of our people at the table also got a beautiful baked salmon with asparagus. And our vegetarian family member got tofu and black bean pasta. Everything was very good and we finished up with crème brûlée and chocolate molten lava cakes with vanilla ice cream. The service was excellent. They were very attentive to our needs and the food kept coming, our plates didn't get empty all night long. The place is beautiful dark brown, lots of wood tons of bottles of wine. Just a perfect really nice evening out.

    Is it AYCE?

    Yes. There is a salad/side buffet called the Market Table that has cold and warm food to eat from. Then once you flip the card from red to green, they start bringing the meats around until you say stop.

    Are children welcome?

    Children under 6 are free, and under 12 half price. So, they're welcome. That being, said it's a great date night place. Get a sitter and enjoy yourself child free for a night! We specifically took our grands (3 & 4) and they loved it. The child… 

    Do they offer well done meats, or are all the meats they bring out rare?

    They offer all grades of finish to the meats. Rare, to well done is available.

    Is it worth the extra $15 per person to add on the dry aged premium cuts? It looks like it's only 4-6 ozs of meat.

    No, you are there more for decent quantity than high quality.

    How much does it cost on average per person?

    If you do the full experience (salad bar and all you can eat meat), $52.99 per person. That's unless you have a coupon. If you sign up for their emails, you will get special offers every couple months that save a ton of money. Also they participate…

The lobster roll was soggy and honestly? Too much. I prefer a classic lobster roll - warm, lobster, bread that still has a little crunch to it (just the tiniest bit), butter - but not too much. This was soggy and the celery situation took away from the essence of a lobster roll for me. I've never liked the lobster salad rolls, and I did make sure there would be no mayo - but I think this was a bit much. Too much butter. Too many toppings. The flavor wasn't amazing. My dad really liked the perch. So much that he didn't let me try it. Lol but it looked good! The fried okra was solid. Kinda hard to mess that up, so no complaints there. Same thing with the fish tacos as the lobster roll. They're very busy. I like tasting my food - not piling the toppings on so things get lost. So, I scraped pretty much everything off. The fish was good! I got my mom the fried oysters. No complaints. Her meal came with two sides, so I got greens and Mac and cheese. I didnt try the Mac, but they said the greens were top tier. They had a nice flavor, but they're spicy - so avoid them if you can't deal with a lot of spice - probably red pepper. They threw in a crab cake for free and I thought that was really sweet of them. I didn't like the way it looked on the inside, so I only nibbled at it. Definitely not what this Maryland girl is used to... the winner is still Commisson Row on crab cakes in Indy so far. Anyway! Cute little tucked away spot, small parking lot, but spacious inside. Quite a few tables and chairs and fresh seafood in the cases. I'd go again and try some different things based on other reviews.

Seemed to be over-proofed. The cornbread was absolutely phenomenal and a must-have! A special shoutout to our waitress, Arya, who noticed our disappointment with the focaccia and generously brought us the cornbread on the house. That kind of service is truly memorable! I also had the beets and peaches salad, which was refreshing but a tad overdressed. Still, I couldn't resist finishing the entire dish. For my main course, I ordered the lasagna, and I can confidently say it was one of the best I've ever had. It wasn't overloaded with cheese and instead complemented by mushrooms and pesto, and surprisingly light on the stomach. My husband chose the filet and rated it an 8/10, saying he thoroughly enjoyed it. We were so full by the end that we skipped dessert. The decor of the restaurant is beautiful, and the staff was incredibly attentive throughout our meal. The only downside was the atmosphere; coming from Chicago, we expected a more bustling vibe on a Thursday night. It seems Indianapolis is a bit quieter during the week. Overall, we had a delightful dining experience, and hats off to Arya for her exceptional service!

The service was very helpful deciding what to order. The setting was fun down town indanopolis feel. The lobster roll was definitely the standout. It was packed with fresh, flavorful lobster and had a nice balance of buttery richness without feeling too heavy. You can tell the seafood is high quality, which makes a huge difference. The lobster deviled eggs were super unique and honestly one of my favorite bites. Creamy, slightly tangy, and topped with lobster--it's not something you see everywhere, and they executed it really well. My husband tried the shrimp burrito, which was great for a seafood spot. It was hearty, well-seasoned, and filled generously. It didn't feel like an afterthought on the menu. To finish, the cheesecake was a great choice it was from the cheesecake factory is what the offered for my birthday smooth, rich, and just the right level of sweetness with a strawberry topping to end the meal without being overwhelming. Overall, Slap's Fish Market delivers on both creativity and quality. It's a great spot if you want fresh seafood with a few fun, unexpected twists. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

    Not gonna lie, my work group really likes coming here when we have lunch outings. My only problem?…read moreI very much dislike seafood to any capacity. Yet, I still eat here just fine. I feel like most seafood places will have vegetarian options by way of removing the fish from pasta dishes or salad, but it's also nice to know that you can get chicken as a substitute on most of these kinds of dishes, too. Granted, it's just like chicken tenders, but still good nonetheless. I really like their firecracker pasta, which is moderately spicy in my opinion. There's no particular fishy smell here, which is always a good sign that the seafood they serve here is freshly prepared. Our food always comes out quickly for lunch and we've been a group as large as 8 or 9. I do believe that ordering is mostly done online in their mass Ave location, though. I don't really seek out a place like Slapfish on my own (no offense at all, just not a seafood girlie!!), but I would assume that it's a rather popular establishment as they recently opened a fifth location in the greater Indy area. If I did like fish and such more, I'd probably be here on a more regular rotation.
