Great service! Everyone was super attentive and got everything we wanted. Food was really tasty and everything was cooked how we wanted

Elizabeth did an amazing job serving us, the food was great, and we had a great time. The only down side of this visit was no skirt steak was available earlier in the day. Lesson learned for the future, as that is our families favorite cut. read more

The service was good. The food fresh and tasty. Went there for bday dinner for 2 of my sons and wife. This is the 3rd Fogo for wife and I. It was cool. For us nothing stood out when compared to other Brazilian steakhouse. My oldest son had wanted to visit for years and before he was done he and my other son stated they preferred Texas De Brazil. To me they are about equal in food quality and service. Fogo has a more intimate feel and their menu options seem to be better. But I have always gone for the all too can eat experience which I've been to 3 different Brazilian steakhouse and they were pretty much the same experience. Texas and Fogo food is better than the other place whose name escapes me. I would recommend this to ppl who haven't been but honestly once you been to one place you pretty much been to them all. read more

The ambiance is great. The wine selection is superb. The food is good. However, I had higher expectations as a few people hyped it up. The service was not great. Our waitress who sat us we really couldn't understand, her follow up throughout dinner was lackluster, and we had to track people down to get other items or refills. Now on to the meat selection. It was good, a few pieces, excellent. Roasted chicken, garlic chicken, top sirloin, and spicy sirloin. The lamb, all the pork, bacon wrapped filet were all overcooked. For the amount of money you spend, it did not meet expectations. The salad bar was really nice, lots of options there. But overall, unfortunately it was subpar. Will try again but hopefully they can turn it around. read more

I wish I had a better experience here but for $70 the service we got and the food was very subpar. I do like the atmosphere. It was a very nice spot with nice decor and it made the ambience very very luxurious. So ask for the food there are some hit and missing things, but mostly misses. I thought some things like the spicy steak, pork belly cheese, complementary bread, picanha, bacon-wrapped chicken, and salad bar were all very good. The rest of the meats like the steak ribeye some of the bacon wrapped items like the bacon wrapped steak left a lot to be desired; A lot of it was dry or and or underseasoned, and if it was salted a lot of the time it was extremely salted. Despite the white glove service, it was very, very slow at times to get water or meat brought to our table, especially near the end of our meal. I understand that our party was large. We had a party of 20 but with the price of the restaurant and the capacity of the dining room. I'm sure they should be used to large parties dining in like that and safe to say we did not have a good experience unlike other places we've been to. I think Fogo mainly relies on hype to get around and that's why they have so many chain restaurants all around the East Coast and other spots of America. I think, though for strictly quality wise, you can definitely find better places for the money, but if you like white glove service and feeling nice and glamorous, then this place could be a good spot for you. read more

Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal experiences and my personal experiences alone, so without further explanation let's begin!. We had a 1:00 pm reservation here on Sunday to cap off a fun filled enjoyable weekend! We walked in and were seated immediately. We had a waitress ask us and give a rundown of the food options and menu details... throughout our experience we had a number of different employees come to our table and ask were there any thing we needed or anything in particular we were waiting on as far as the different meats or anything we needed. The service was impeccable and the food options were unlimited. They have plenty of dine in seating and a bar area as well... I would definitely recommend and return to this establishment and if you're into to different food options then this may be a place to explore if you haven't already been!. read more

Very nice and service was immaculate. We had reservations for 6p to celebrate my birthday. Loved the meat sampling experience. The carmel charbroiled cheesecake was amazing, topped with fruit sauce. Had to flip my card to red because I got full super quickly. We definitely got our bang for buck. Food was fresh and delicious. Clean bathrooms are always a plus as well. Loved the ambiance, maybe I'm a tad biased because we got an entire private room to ourselves LOVED IT!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND read more

5 stars! What an amazing experience! We had lunch here yesterday with a group of friends, and everything was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The food was delicious, full of flavor, and truly unforgettable. Kevin, the bartenders, and the restaurant manager were all outstanding -- professional, friendly, attentive, and made us feel so welcome. The service was top-notch in every way, and the atmosphere was warm, lively, and enjoyable. This place exceeded all our expectations. We will definitely be coming back many, many times. Without a doubt, this will be a must-stop every time we are in Richmond! read more

This restaurant looks good. It's clean and has white tablecloths. I've eaten there three times previously but never got the meat. Today we got the full lunch. I was disappointed in the meats. Most were very rare and extremely salty. It was not as tender as I'd expected. The Caesar salad had some brown Pieces which shouldn't have been in the salad. Service was good. read more

It was just okay, we usually go to Texas De Brazil. The salad bar was underwhelming, they had fried zucchini and sweet potatoes served cold on a bed of ice. The whole set up was kind of strange. When they brought the meat out, they were well done, our table asked for med. rare. The service was okay, but was hard to get refills of water, as the food was very salty. The sides and desserts were good though. Overall, we probably wont be back. They are one of the few restaurants that offer bone marrow though. That was delicious. read more

The four-course Vik wine dinner at Fogo de Chão was phenomenal and more than worth it! From the food to the wine pairings to the service -- an elevated without over-the-top experience. Plus a huge a shoutout to the amazing staff Frankie, Kevin, Santiago, Sofia, Rachel and many more wonderful humans. The night tasting started off with creamy sweet corn chowder, and a tomato and burrata salad - burrata that was absolutely refreshing. The meal was paired with a rosé, which was light and flavorful. Then came the picanha (one of my favorite meats), served with fried polenta (like fried), queso frito, and caramelized bananas. The red wine that came with it (2021 Vik Milla Cala) was smooth and rich. While the sides on this wear my least favorite (because I don't like polenta or bananas) the picanha was so out of this world I had two pieces. The lamb chops were juicy accompanied with the chiles toreados, which were too spicy for me. By the time the Wagyu New York Strip came out with garlic mashed potatoes and the Vik red blend, I was almost full, but it's waygu so I managed to have two thinly sliced strips. I MADE room for the warm berry bread pudding, vanilla ice cream, and it was absolutely worth it! If you ever get the chance to do one of these wine dinners, don't think twice. It's worth every single penny. read more

I was beyond excited to eat here for Mother's Day for the first time. I had a reservation but still waited about 30 minutes to be seated. It really didn't bother me because I can wait for good food. But there was no good food. I was there for two full hours and was almost begging for the check. Service did not exist. My seat was missing a fork and so I waited, asked multiple staff, and waited more for a fork as everyone around me ate and as my plate became full of food. I ordered a glass of wine in the very beginning only to be told an hour later, they were out. Why could nobody tell me the drink I kept waiting on wasn't available? By that time, meat stopped coming to our table and when I looked around there was no meat in our section of the restaurant. We were never offered bread until we asked over an hour into the meal. The part I was most looking forward to was the meat. It was so dry and overcooked, I had to chew and keep chewing and keep chewing. The only edible meat was the bacon wrapped chicken. At the end of the wait, my friend and I said "let's just order a dessert to use up the gift cards because we will not be coming back". My entire experience was summed up as "Texas de Brazil would never...." read more

I am usually a Texas de Brazil girly but my hubby decided to switch it up for my Birthday and he brought me here instead. One of my favorite things about a Brazilian steakhouse is the salad bar and this salad bar was so underwhelming, the food there didn't taste fresh and was picked over. The meats however were excellent and the lobster tail was cooked to perfection. Not a terrible experience but I will stick to Texas de Brazil from now on. read more

Food wasn't bad but the service was terrible. We went at 6:00 for a reservation as a party of 7. Ordered drinks and didn't get them until we were ready to leave which was over an hour later. Our waters took forever to get refilled. They kept bringing the same meats to our table. We had to ask for different meats multiple times. Probably won't be going back. read more

Able made the whole experience so good! Very personable, very friendly and able to get us whatever we needed! The food was amazing, but truly our waiter able made things so good. read more

We've given Fogo two tries since they've opened, and it's a nice date night spot or restaurant to go to if you are celebrating a special occasion - especially if they are offering the Best of the Brazil option for $49. They offer all you can eat meats as well as the salad bar. The food isn't immaculate but for the deal, it is worth trying. The service was excellent and the staff is attentive and always made sure that we had everyone we needed. read more

This was likely the most disappointing dining experience I have had. Everything was exceptional cold. Service was slow despite the manager going from table to table and when he asked if there was anything we could need, he completely ignored us. You can go to 100 other places for less per person, for significantly better food and ambience. Don't waste your time. read more

We had a 4:00 PM reservation and arrived 10 minutes early. Despite the restaurant being virtually empty, we spent those 10 minutes standing by the hostess station because no one was there to greet us. Once seated, it took another 10 minutes for a waiter to appear to take our order. Even then, it was another 20 minutes before our drinks--an unsweetened tea and two Brazilian lemonades to finally hit the table. It took three attempts to get one refill of unsweetened tea. The lemonades were one of the high points of the meal, the deserts being the other. The food was equally disappointing, most of the meats were significantly under-seasoned and lacked flavor. Several of the cuts were quite tough. To make matters worse, both the men's and women's restrooms were filthy and had a very unpleasant odor. Given the lack of attention to the guests and the basic upkeep of the facility, I won't be returning. read more

The tomahawk tequila dinner was great ! Rachel and Abel were great ! Will be back for sure

Amazing good, excellent service and very nice atmosphere. We were seated right away and given a rundown of the menu we chose the indulgent as it had more options and a choice of four separate items including a lobster tail. The meats all came out cooked perfectly. Lots of choices on the salad bar. As we came on a Sunday they also had a waffle and omelet bar as well. We will return. read more

This was my first time at any Fogo de Chão but I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses (US & Rio). My friend shared a screenshot about their national caipirinha day celebration special and I made a reservation immediately. For $29/pp we got 2 caipirinhas and delicious bar bites. From making the reservation the service was great; we had to arrive late and the note was made and we had no issues. Upon arrival we were seated promptly and Kevin and Santiago took great care of us. Our waters were constantly filled and they along with the other servers came around often with the bar bites. I wish I would've taken pictures of everything but the food was delicious. The empanadas and bacon wrapped chicken were my favorite. The chicken was cooked perfectly, so moist and flavorful. In addition to what's pictured we also enjoyed the chicken sliders, bacon wrapped steak, candied bacon, and the braised beef crostini. If you've had a caipirinha then you know they're delicious and the cachaça is usually strong buttt that's how we like them. I think of the stateside steak houses Fogo's caipirinha's are the best. Hopefully they're regularly this good. The passion fruit was my favorite followed by the strawberry hibiscus. The restaurant itself is nice and inviting. To the right of the lobby was the main dining area and it was pretty full. I definitely plan to return for another meal or event ! read more

We went to Fogo de Chão in Short Pump for a large birthday celebration, and the atmosphere was beautiful and inviting. The restaurant itself is stunning. The lighting, layout, and energy of the space really set the tone for a special occasion. It definitely feels upscale and festive. Our servers, Kevin and Tina, were super attentive, friendly, and kept everything flowing smoothly for our large group. Let's talk food. The meat, which is the star of the show here, was just okay. While they had a variety of cuts, the quality wasn't what I expected for a $98 per person experience. Some cuts were dry, and overall, the seasoning was lacking. I was hoping for more flavor and better tenderness. They stayed true to Brazilian-style churrasco, but I would've liked more variety. The salad bar was fresh and had a decent variety, but it could've used more warm dishes. Most of the options were cold, and it left me wanting something heartier to pair with the meat. I would have wanted more variety there as well. Dessert, on the other hand, was incredible. The cheesecake was hands-down the best part of the meal... rich, creamy, and beautifully presented. Definitely worth saving room for. Drinks were incredible as well. I recommend the $10 strawberry drink. All in all, we had a great time thanks to the company and the service, but the food felt more average than exceptional. For $98 a head, I expected more in both variety and quality. Great ambiance, great people, stellar service but the food didn't quite live up to the price tag. read more

I don't know where to start with this place. First of all, don't let the price tag deceive you into thinking you won't get your money's worth (for the "Full Churrasco" at least). The $65 dinner and $49 lunch prices tends to scare casuals (like me) away. But I have to say, if you want steak, you are going to have to pay. Usually when you go to a restaurant and get a decent sized steak, you will be paying at least $35, plus appetizers, which are included at Fogo de Chao in the Full Churrasco- as it includes a fruit bar, salad bar and other sides such as mashed potatoes, fried bananas, cheese bread, and more. Of the entrees, the honey cheese is my favorite, as well as the top sirloin and fillet mignon. Here, you will be getting much higher quality food than one of those other restaurants, and in whatever quantity you desire, and you will be surrounded by a beautiful atmosphere and the kindest of people in the world. Leo was serving my group, and provided us with an exquisite experience, as he was very flexible with every request for a fillet and was willing to make our experience one to remember. As a college student and athlete trying to make money, every time I make $50, I sometimes motivate myself, thinking of it as one trip here- which says a lot, because I am typically very wise with my money. When I attend Fogo de Chao, it doesn't just make every other food I eat seem mediocre, but it is always an experience to remember. read more

My first experience at Fogo was amazing! Alberto, the bartender, was incredibly helpful and gave excellent recommendations. If you're looking for a great happy hour, this is the place hands down the best around! They offer happy hour all day at the bar and patio, which is a huge plus. I had the $17.50 filet mignon board, and it was exceptional, along with the delicious drinks. I'll definitely be back to try the all you can eat experience! read more

All the meat was overcooked and over salted, even asking for rare. We saw our waitress like 2 times the entire night and had to interrupt other waiters for things we needed (which we never got). Tables were two feet apart and ran into several staff trying to use the bathroom. Then we paid $230.... read more

All went well. Tables seemed a teeny bit crowded but wasn't so busy that moving around wasn't difficult.

8pm reservation, sat by 8:10. The place was busy so I get it. Waiter came over in about 5 minutes after we sat and ordered 2 glasses of wine. Meanwhile there was a party of 20 in the same room. Two little kids were running around, hiding under tables and totally disrupting the dining room. The parents, clueless. The waiter telling us about the menu, had to take one from us and go down the list... very unprofessional. Know your menu! The meat started to come but no wine yet. Finally after waiting 40 minutes and asking about the wine, it finally showed up. We then asked for more filet, SIX times! Everyone said they will get it, yet no one did. For the price they are charging, the service should have been better. I would have given it 2.5 stars, but Yelp doesn't have that option. Stay away. read more

We went here on a Saturday night. We were a group of 4 and had reservations. The food was fantastic but the service and cleanliness were not. We were never offered or given refills on drinks and waited over 15 minutes after done eating before we could get someone to bring our checks. The women's restroom was a disaster-garbage overflowing everywhere no toilet paper in any stalls----just BAD. All and all I was very disappointed read more

We had a great time with Tina and Sophie! Food was delightful and drinks creative. We'll be back!

The service was top notch and was what really sold us. Our server explained the menu and pointed out their all day happy hour options aka the bar fogo features. The caipirinhas were very refreshing. We didn't know there was a brunch menu during the weekend and were unexpectedly surprised when we found out the churrasco experience was cheaper than the dinner menu. The churrasco experience is the all you can eat typical Brazilian steakhouse option where they bring the meats tableside and you have access to the market table / buffet. The market table had an assortment of cheeses, deli meats, salad bar, and a variety of sides like potato salad, quinoa tabbouleh, Brazilian street corn, chicken salad, and marinated mushrooms. During brunch the market table has additional offerings like Belgian waffles and made-to-order omelets. About 80% of the listed meats on the menu were in rotation. After awhile they started to blend together. I do wish they all had more seasoning or flavor but I recognize some people like to taste the meat itself. Our favorites were the garlic steak, bacon-wrapped steak, spicy pork sausage, and the beef ribs. You're able to request a specific meat if it doesn't come through, which we did. Our server checked in a few times to see if we got to try it and we still hadn't and were going to tap out. He made sure we got to try it and even offered a dessert on the house for the inconvenience. Reservations can be made on OpenTable. The parking lot is very small but West Broad Village has a garage right across. Overall, I don't think there were meats we absolutely need to come back for but the service was so great that I would come back for a special occasion and would take advantage of the brunch menu again. read more
