I am not too fond of all you can eat buffet & been to other Brazilian restaurants, & for me Fogo de Chao doesn’t offer the same variety meat as others & the server to cut the meat at your table doesn’t come around as fast as other restaurants. The salad bar is ok but offering more veggies vs others offering seafood as well. Overall this wasn’t my favorite Brazilian restaurant.

Chef Eric was amazing! Everything tasted just right. We felt like there wasn't enough air flow so the air quality was not so good.

It's a small place but staff was very friendly and the food was ample and very tasty. Everyone enjoyed their order, which included Greek salad, their combo plate, and Roquefort chicken. We had requested a quiet location and got one. I was afraid we wouldn't be able to hear the two musicians in the front room but their music was piped in.
