    Our server was excellent, 5/5. The ambience was 5/5. I rated the value a 3/5 due to a piece of meat being dry. I felt like that shouldn't be the case for a $92 per person experience

    We appreciate the thoughtful notes, Michael. It is great to hear your server and the ambience were 5 out of 5. Your feedback about a dry cut is important to us, and we want every visit to feel exceptional. A Manager may be reaching out to learn more about your visit. Warm Regards

    Hostess not very friendly and not sure she understood what I was saying. I had reservation but she could not find it and tried to show her on my phone but would not look. She sat us on side with heavy traffic. We moved over a seat no big deal but maybe educate her on that. Ashley very nice and her partner. But she disappeared but came back at the end giving explanation. The girls were outstanding servers! Loved the lighting and ambiance - food very good. Music and noise level just right.

    The first time we went to Fogo De Chao it was amazing. As we went the next few times, the service declined significantly. This event consisted of only bacon and chicken/steak and one small piece of waygu, not even the beef listed. Defintely dissapointed.

    Beautiful restaurant. I feel the quality isn’t what it used to be. The best meat were the lamb chops, nearly every other cut was over cooked. Our sides were cold..the roasted carrots were actually raw. The didn’t come out for nearly 25 mins after we ordered them. The staff was very pleasant and attentive.

    Thank you for sharing this with us, Heather. We appreciate your notes on the cuts and sides, and we’re glad to hear our team was pleasant and attentive. A Manager may be reaching out to learn more so we can review your concerns with timing and preparation. Thank you.

    This was a celebration for a staff member at work, and the atmosphere and unique menu made the occasion feel special. Overall the food was very good - some of the meat brought table side was tough but when brought around again was much better. Don't pass up the grilled pineapple!
