    Pão de Queijo (GF) | Brazilian Cheese Bread (12)
    Leonard K.

    Fogo De Chao has this insane new all day happy hour menu at the bar. I think I like it better than their all you can eat menu! What drew me in is their $10 picahna burger. What left me wanting more is their $16 beef rib bone thing and their lobster and shrimp tacos. When you picture a burger in your head, a lot of places fall short of what that looks like. Like you either don't get a big piece of lettuce or you can't see the tomato from a visible area. Visibly, this burger looks like the ideal burger one would want with all the ingredients it should have. An added bonus is that this one is cooked with picahna instead of regular beef. Plus, it also comes with polenta fries. The bartender said a lot of people don't like the polenta fries so they upgrade to yucca instead. While I enjoyed the corn taste of the polenta fries, my friend said he didn't. For the beef rib bone, that thing was phenomenal. The meat was tender. There were bits you could scrape off the bone that were more charred. It came with I think a chimicchuri. That was just amazing. Then the lobster and shrimp tacos were really good too. I liked that they served them in lettuce as opposed to tortillas to cut down on the carb intake. While the artichoke spinach dip was good, I felt they went slightly heavy with the salt. Artichoke is already pretty salty so I think that could've been a little lighter on the salt side. I feel the prices for the all day happy hour menu were cheaper than going to like an Applebees or something, which is insane. But then again, for a restaurant like this to make a happy hour menu like that, I feel that restaurants overall may really be hurting as well. The service here is exceptionally good. The ambiance is really nice too because you're basically getting a fine dining environment at fast casual franchise prices, which is unreal. Definitely gonna make this a thing.

    Absolutely delicious

    Such an amazing experience! Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. It's all-you-can-eat, and they definitely are not shy about bringing you plenty of food! Everything was delicious, fresh, and the service was excellent. What really stood out to us was how much attention and care they gave our table. We had our baby with us, and they made sure we were comfortable and taken care of the entire time, which we really appreciated. At the end, they even surprised us with a special dessert, and it was SO delicious that we finished the whole thing! We felt genuinely welcomed and cared for. Definitely a 5-star experience, and we'll absolutely be coming back!

    I've been to a few different Fogo de Chaos, but this one is by far the best. Came in with my family and baby, and the team made us feel completely looked after from the start. Service was attentive without being overbearing. Uh, we never had to chase anything, and the staff anticipated our needs perfectly. The cuts just kept coming, perfectly cooked and generous. Huge shout out to Raymundo, for keeping the table happy, and Shane, who made sure everything ran smoothly. And the surprise dessert was a really thoughtful touch. If you're deciding between locations, this one sets the standard.

    My parents and I arrived near the beginning of dinner service. Upon being seated, we were offered Caipirinhas with tableside bar service--fun! I got the passion fruit version, and it was full of refreshing lime, while the passion fruit syrup was equal parts tart and sweet. Perfect for a 92-degree summer day. The salad bar had all the usual suspects, with everything flavorful and well-presented. I do wish they listed common allergens on the food labels, as this would be especially helpful. We were offered tons of different meats (did you know they do chicken breast?), but the best, in my opinion, were the picanha and sirloin cuts. The restaurant filled in slowly as the night went on. Moises made sure my parents and I had a seamless experience. He provided excellent, attentive service throughout the evening and even engaged us in conversation about where we were visiting from. He brought us a beautifully decorated dessert; a thoughtful gesture and sweet touch to end the night!

    I'M EXTREMELY HAPPY! I had a caipirinha, the churrasco experience, and the brigadeiro dessert. Everything was phenomenal! This is probably my favorite restaurant in LA now. The service was outstanding! The server Lowis was so kind, Moises the manager was adorable, and all gauchos, especially Eric, were extraordinary. I will definitely be back. This is the place to bring the ones you love. Unforgettable experience!

    Picanha burger. $10 on happy hour menu. YES!
    Nick A.

    OK friends, I found the BEST deal for a $10 burger in town!! It's gigantic and it's juicy! How's that for aptly used alliteration! It's the happy hour deal, and guess what, happy hour lasts from opening to close every day!!! These guys know how to extend a hour! They're on some kind of eternal time clock I think. Anyway, it's a freakin' great deal and it's a really good burger. If you can find a better burger this size for $10 bucks anywhere, I'd love to hear about it. I don't know what it weighs, but I'm guessing at least a half a pound, maybe more. I ain't a kiddin', it's huge! It's called the Picanha Burger. Maybe that means, freakin' huge in Brazil! I have a big appetite and I took almost half of it home. Not only that, they don't skimp on the toppings. Bookmark this place for the best burger deal in town! OK, why would i only give it four stars. Two words. Yucca fries. Ever had 'em? Don't bother. They are tasteless starch. Not worth even a single calorie. All i could taste was the oil they were fried in, and that wasn't too tasty either. Here's the super bummer, it's $4 extra for the yuck fries. #NotWorthIt. You can get regular fries as part of the deal with the $10 burger for no extra charge. Do that. No yuck fries for you. You'll thank me for it. You're welcome. The All Day Happy Hour Bar Fogo menu has a nice selection of $6 bar bites, sharable plates that are reasonably prices, and some carved at the table high end steaks that are priced way north of $100. Drink wise they have a selection of $10 cocktails. I had a Gold Rush. It was way too sweet. All the $10 cocktails seem to be on the sweet side. They also have $8 South American wine and $6 beer. Not bad! The service is great. Food is great (except for the yucca fries), drinks are great and so is the atmosphere. This is a perfect place to meet someone for a chat, a chomp and a cheer. How's that for an alliterated ending!

    Always a fantastic experience with Cruz and Rosaura. Great food and drinks and the happy hour is amazing.

    Service was slow they didn't check on us very often. Food was good. I usually have a positive experience here so it was just an off day. I'll come back again.

    We went to Fogo de Chão for the first time on a weekday, and it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant was elegant and inviting, and the self-serve market table was one of the best I've ever had. The fruits were impeccably sweet, my favorites were the pineapple and persimmons, and the food was constantly being served fresh. As for the meats, they were flavorful and fresh. I did notice that some tables seemed to receive higher priority when it came to the crispier and more popular cuts. For example, the table next to us appeared to have a higher-tier option and was frequently served picanha before other meats reached our table. That said, I still really enjoyed the garlic beef, ribeye, sirloin, and picanha. Our server was excellent and checked on us often to make sure we were well taken care of. Parking-wise, valet was available for $15, but we chose street parking, which only cost a few dollars. Overall, this was my first Brazilian barbecue experience, and I had a great time. I would definitely recommend it and can see myself returning in the future!

    Our party of 12 dined there yesterday for a lunchtime birthday party. All in all it was a nice, memorable occasion. There were a few issues that guests brought up after the meal but I still give it five stars. One guest told me she was disappointed that the servers began by bringing out one chicken dish after another. She felt that the meat could have come first. This was not my opinion and I recall the waitress asked us several times, at the end of our meal, if we wanted more meat. I guess one could argue that we got filled up on chicken and wanted less meat. But I was completely satisfied. This is the third Fogo I've attended and it was, by far, the best. Seating was very comfortable and the restaurant was elegant. The servers and waitress were very attentive. The buffet was really good. I went back three times and I could have made it my entire meal. Everything in the buffet looked great. Parking on their lot is valet only. We parked (closely) on the street without any problem and saved the valet fee. I highly recommend this location for regular dining or special occasions. There were two other large birthday parties at the same time as our reservation it wad obvious everyone was having a great time.

    Ask the Community - Fogo de Chão

    How much regular coffee?

    I thought it was like $3- $5. However, we had good relations with the server and got it for free. I would say the price you are paying to go in and eat if you brought your Starbucks coffee with you inside the restaurant, they likely wouldn't tell… 

    Is outdoor seating available?

    No it is only indoor

    Do you offer complimentary desert for birthdays?

    Yes, they did that for me. But I guess it might vary by location. But you could ask the staff, and I bet the staff are very friendly.

    What are the brunch hours?

    Dinner Mon - Thu 5:00 PM - 10:00 PM Fri 5:00 PM - 10:30 PM… 

    What if one person wants the CHURRASCO EXPERIENCE and the other person only wants a entree plate can you pick that option?

    Yes you can

    Is there have AYCE menu?

    Yes it's their Churrasco Experience section

    Is the $15 lunch for market table AYCE?

    As of feb 7, 2022 do they still have outdoor dining and how much is the churraso experience for lunch and how much for dinner?

    On a 2 person party, can one person buy a salad bar and the other all meat and share plates?

    Definitely not!

    Do u need vaccine cards to dine in?

    No, you don't need to show your card but they require masks when walking around restaurant or when you walk up to the buffet area.

    As of June 10, 2021 is their outdoor dining still a tent with lights in their parking lot? How much is their AYCE for dinner? Do they still have the market table?

    We were just there on Tuesday to celebrate my sister's birthday and they had outdoor seating but we opted for indoor dining. The fogo experience dinner price is about $65 the market table was also available again!… 

    Is the salad bar open yet?

    Yes! The market bar is open, buffet style. Just use a different plate each time you visit. ☺️

    Is the table market open( salad bar)? And do they carve meats at table?

    Yes & yes !

    Vocês tem rodício como no Brasil?

    Sim!

    Are you still offering the pre-Covid "lunch buffet special" in some form, perhaps using servers rather than self service?

    Yes. No server. It is self service

    How much is it for lunch, dinner & brunch?

    $100 average a person for the endless meats. We went for dinner.

    How should we dress to go here? Would jeans and a button up shirt for a guy be appropriate?

    You can get away with that. I personally prefer to wear a suit, but a button-up shirt and jeans should be okay.

    Is indoor dining open?

    No, it was patio dining only as of 2/4/21.

    Is it kid friendly? My daughter is a a year and a half old.

    If your kid is disciplined you shouldn't have any issue. If you cannot control your kid and they have a tendency to run around and touch everything I wouldn't bring them.

    How do they go around serving meats that have been around other tables? Is that safe during Covid?

    Last time we were there, they changed the format so that you request the meats you want. They then bring a serving just for your table.

The service here is excellent and everything ran smoothly with zero issues. The bread and butter here is excellent while waiting for your meal. I had the beef stroganoff, which is a comfort dish for me. It's hearty and delicious so I couldn't wait to try this dish. I was certainly surprised because I was not expecting it to be incredibly flavorful. It was so good I couldn't stop eating it. Highly recommended! We ended our meal with the devil's advocate flourless chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream, which was delicious for being flourless. What a perfect way to end a tasty meal. My only complaint is the parking because we didn't know where we could park. We ended up getting a ticket because we thought we could park nearby. Definitely recommend asking where to park to avoid a ticket. Overall, we very much enjoyed our dining experience and will certainly be back to try other menu items.

We started with the farmhouse beets, a delicious balance of beets, arugula and dressing topped with candied pecans. The portion was more than enough so we boxed some up to leave room for the main course. Our mains were the wagyu beef stroganoff and the trout filet with blistered green beans. The stroganoff and pappardelle arrived in its own covered dish, so hot it sat on a wood base. While it was a good comfort food dish I thought the horse radish was a little too forward for my taste. It was my companion's entree and she really enjoyed it and there was enough to take home. I had the trout filet with its crispy pepita topping served with blistered green beans. Very happy with my choice and it was also a generous portion. Dessert was the yuzu olive oil cake for my friend and butterscotch budino for me. I loved the balance of butterscotch, crème fraiche, salt and pecans. And the pecan cookie was a great accompaniment. She enjoyed her selection as well. Corkage fee is $20. From the ambiance to the food and service, it was another great experience here. Parking was easy with metered parking along Beverly.

It was a retro style building that was a lot bigger than I expected inside. I came at 4:30pm right as they were opening and it filled up quickly. ========= THE FOOD ========= ~ 1/2 LOBSTER ROLL (hot) -- They have a chilled lobster roll but when I asked the bartender her preference she said the hot is better. Small but packed with plump succulent lobster. Butter-basked the texture is sooo good. 4 solid bites of heaven. Bun is a little cracker-like in terms of bread (10/10) ~ HOOK SLIDER (burger) -- The smaller version of their $25 Hook Burger... the gigantic slider (bigger than a cheeseburger at most places) was heavenly. One of the best burgers I've ever had. A+ It was topped with a 4yr old aged white cheddar, pickles, caramelized onions, lettuce and Thousand Island. (10/10) ~ MUSSELS -- Soft texture, full of flavor. Slight bitter mussel taste. Good but prob wouldn't get again. (4/5) ~ CALAMARI -- Small, crispy... juicy on the inside but the breading lacks flavor and seasoning. The cocktail sauce and aioli helps but doesn't save it. Wouldn't order again. (3/5) ======= SAUCEY ======= ~ SAFFRON AOILI -- Looks lemony, was a garlic aioli w/Saffron, great for seafood, full of flavor. (5/5) ~ COCKTAIL SAUCE -- lil bit ketchup, a lil bit spicy. (4/5) ~ ORANGE SAUCE -- "Figueroa Sauce" I thought it was a spicy mayo or chipotle mayo. Was a bit tangy, not bad. (3/5) ============ NEEDED 2 TRY =============== Too late now but... ~ LOBSTER MAYO -- House-made, contains Katsuoboshi - Bonito Flakes, does not contain Lobster. $1 ~ FIGARO SAUCE -- House-made sauce blend of Hollandaise & Marinara. $1 ~ CLAM CHOWDER TRIO ========== IN CLOSING ========== I'd been wanting to come for nearly a decade and finally did it. It lived up to the hype of all my friends over the years that raved about it especially Alexis P. It's a shame the owners were ready to retire and robbed us of this gem but I'm happy they get to sit back and enjoy post retirement life as they well deserve after treating Angelenos to this delicacy the past 15+ years. Cheers to Connie and Ted.

    Pura Vita deserves to be a destination -- not because it's a vegan restaurant but because the…read moreingredients are quality, the food delicious, the menu is creative. My husband has type 1 diabetes so we very rarely eat at Italian ristorantes. Chef Tara has helped us rediscover a new world of flavor without negative impacts on my husband's blood sugar and cholesterol. (Thanks for the variety of non-dairy cheeses!!) Tip for first-timers: go when you can have the brunch or the lunch menu. Then you'll have so many options that you'll have to return! Round 1 Polpettine (meatballs) are made from lentils and texture similar to the real ones; lovely marinara sauce and ground macadamia nut instead of parmesan. Complement this with the citrus notes that highlight the sauteed swiss chard with earthy Italian butter / gigante beans. Round 2 The same beans are in the Greek goddess salad: rich with tomatoes, kalamata olives, and fresh red onions. This was a visually stunning and paired well with the Sicilian almond 'tuna' melt. The tuna is by far the most imaginative. Again, Chef Tara and the back of the house nailed the texture and I loved the hints of crunchy celery. The capers injected tiny bursts of salt and tartness. The only moderation I'd consider is slightly crisping / toasting the sandwich bread -- but the tuna melt sando is great as it is. Pura Vida is a diamond in the rough especially because the storefront is pretty discreet. I sure wish that we lived closer. We'll be back for special occasions in our life!

Everything is vegan and there were a lot of options you can make gluten free. We rave about this place often. Even our waiter was really nice and helpful. Good vibes all around. Though it is on the pricier side, it's so worth it. Also very decent wine selection *mwah*
