I was really excited to take my friend here for her birthday with her husband. Maraya was amazing. She provided great service and was incredibly friendly and cheerful. I just wish the rest of the experience was the same. Food was so BLAND! Majority of the meat was well done, chicken was dry. My favorite part was the cheese with honey…that’s not a good thing. The salad bar was SUPER BARE! we were there during a prime dining time at 6:45, tables full. The people walking around would ask one person if they wanted something and then leave without asking others. Just super disappointing which I was not expecting. Mashed potatoes cold, bread cold at first but then given fresh hot bread. Hope others don’t have the same experience and hopefully this was just an off day…

The salad bar didn’t have much options and kept running out of items without being restocked quickly. There wasn’t hardly any variety of meats coming around to the tables like other Brazilian restaurants have. overall I felt like it wasn’t worth the money.

Restaurant wasn’t full. Salad bar was half empty all night. The meat came fast and furious. Even if the medallions were red, they dropped the skewers on the table asking if we wanted …. Felt like they were rushing us to eat and go!

The food was great, but service was just ok. We kept getting looked over for certain meats. As the restaurant became busier, it seemed like they wanted to get us out. They took our appetizers off the table without even asking if it was ok. Because of the delay in between the meat service, we ended up losing our appetites early and felt like we didn’t get our money’s worth. Also, the upcharge for the wine is ridiculous. You can buy one of their bottles at total wine for $15, but they charge $80-$90 for the same one.

Excellent food and service, but the restaurant was very cold. Over half the people in there were wearing their jackets. I told my server it was freezing and he just shrugged his shoulders and agreed with me. For the price, I expect at least 70 degrees inside the restaurant.

Fogo de chao was delicious and definitely worth the price! To be honest, the market table really wasn’t for us but everything else was fantastic! The meat was delicious and it came at a price you really can’t beat. I do with they would space tables out more. It’s a huge restaurant but still cramped because they put everyone so close together. I feel bad for the servers! Overall will go back, it was delicious! I just wish they’d be more considerate on spacing inside instead of prioritizing how many people they can cram in.
