Fogo De Chao

THE BEST FOOD I'VE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE

by aliparman at Citysearch

Fogo is easily the best food I've ever eaten. The Brazilian style meats are cooked over open fire to PERFECTION. The meal is decadent and perfect for a first date, second date and every date if you can afford it. The meats are five star quality meats, this is not Golden Coral, it's a five-star resturant that feeds you until you surrender, and believe me you will surrender. When you are served, you can tell them how you like it... if the meat is too rare you can tell them 'well done' and they will make it for you. They will prepare every cut to your satisfaction, no matter how many times you ask them to bring it more or less well done. This place is a meat lover's paradise! Why pay $40-$50 for a 9 oz. filet when you can go to Fogo and get every cut they have for a coupla bucks more?

**The service is amazing, every employee in the establishment will serve you hand and foot.

**The food is DEVINE

**The place leaves nothing more to be desired, if Fogo De Chao does not please you, nothing can.

Tips...

**Don't fill up on the salad bar, you're not really paying for the lettuce

**Go with the regular meats, stay away from the 'Garlic meats'

**The best beef cuts are: Picha?a, Bottom Serloin, Filet,

**Take the lambchops medium rare

**Try everything on the menu once, but don't eat the stuff you don't like, just have them take it away

**THE MOST IMPORTANT THING**

**ASK FOR EVERYTHING YOU WANT, IT WILL MAKE THEM HAPPY TO PLEASE YOU**

**DON'T BE SHY, YOU ARE THERE FOR THE EXPERIENCE, DON'T CHEAT THEM OUT OF THE OPPERTUNITY TO PROVIDE THE BEST POSSIBLE EXPERIENCE FOR YOU.**

TAKE CARE, ALI PARMAN

Wonderful!!!!!!

by LdyDva25 at Citysearch

I visited Fogo de Chao in Atlanta for the first time this week and it was absolutely wonderful. I was so impressed with the food as well as the service. I'm ready to go back again. Thoroughly impressed and would tell anyone who has the chance make sure to stop by.

• Pros: Ambience, service, food

Compare Brazilian

by 031964 at Citysearch

Compare Fogo De Chao to Texas De Brazil. Claim to be the same, but Texas De Brazil is much better and worth the money. Fogo De Chao is more expensive, meat all taste the same and salad bar nothing special. Service was good although it seems they were always in a hurry to beat the other servers to your table. Restaurant was clean and staff was friendly. If you are looking for a great meal then drive past Fogo De Chao and find a Texas De Brazil!

Excellent Service, Great Food

by nfraser1 at Citysearch

I have been twice to Fogo de Chao for my birthday and then for my husband's. I've been impressed every time. The service is very attentive and the food is great. Be prepared to leave with your belly full. On my husband's birthday, we unfortunately had a car accident when we were only 5 minutes from the restaurant. Knowing that Atlanta PD would be a while, I called the restaurant and asked if they could hold our reservation. This was on a busy Saturday night. The restaurant was so accommodating and told us they'd seat us whenever we could get there. I was very impressed. I'll definitely be back!

• Pros: great service, great food
• Cons: expensive...but it's too be expected

Great Food & Service!!!!!!!!

by silverchick at Citysearch

My husband & I ate here last night for his birthday. Although I'm a vegetarian this was one of my best dining experiences. There was plenty of options for me on the salad bar (chick peas & potato salad was my fav) as well as the potatoes, bread and bananas that are brought to the table. My husband enjoyed all of the meats served but his favorites were lamb chop and filet mignon. Be sure to try their Limeade, great non-alcoholic beverage. The best part about this restuarant is the service. The waiters were very attentive to our needs, we never had to ask for anything. My husband left stuffed & happy!!!

• Pros: Customer Service
• Cons: None

Exceptional Service

by krazegrl at Citysearch

The food at Fogo de Chao is great, but make sure only to go if you have the appetite to eat all those delcious meats. The salad bar was very delicious and had a variety of items that were also delicious. The lemonade there is slammin. The very best I have ever had. The waiters and waitresses were very attentive...almost too attentive. The never let my glass get empty. It is very expensive, but the food was delicious!!

• Pros: Delicous food and great service
• Cons: Very, very expensive.

The Only Brazilian Steakhouse To Dine!

by honeybronzed17 at Citysearch

This is by far the best Brazilian Steakhouse! I highly advise you to avoid trying to cut costs by going to knock-off Brazilian steakhouses. You will be disppointed! My husband and I have gone at least 8 times and have ALWAYS been very satisfied with Fogo. Service is impeccable. The food is seasoned to perfection. You can't go wrong with Fogo! I was prompted to write this review today, because my husband and I just left another so-called Brazilian restaurant extremely upset to say the least. We never have to put any seasonings on our food when we dine at Fogo. Salt & Pepper didn't help this steakhouse. We were trying to avoid the Buckhead traffic due to special events this weekend. We were in the Perimeter Mall area and he was craving meat! We're still kicking ourselves that we didn't just opt for another day since we couldn't do Fogo's.

• Pros: Food is seasoned to perfection
• Cons: Location

I've been to a lot of steak houses, but Fogo de Choa is by far the best!

by jspink2 at Citysearch

It's awesome! You can get as much beef, chicken, lamb, or pork that you want all for one price. If you love filet mignon then you can get as much as you'd like. If you like lamb also, then you can get as much of that too! It's a never ending feast until you are satisfied. Service is outstanding. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and taken to our table. There were already two waiters at our table ready to pull our chairs and greet us as soon as we sat down. Through out the dinner I felt as if there was always someone there to answer any question or take care of any thing that I wanted. All around, my favorite restaurant to go to!!! You can't go wrong at this place.

Great food, atmosphere, but bad service.

by mintybreath at Citysearch

I've been hearing about this restaurant for a while now, so I went with my date. The atmosphere was very nice, the salad bar was great, and the whole coaster flipping thing was brilliant. People walking around with the meat all had some kind of exotic accent, and I even liked that.

Among all the selections of meat, there's three that stood out the most, and they were the Picanha, Fillet Mignon, and the Alcatra. The rest were.....great but not as great as these three. (It's personal preference, mind you.) Their side dishes like the roasted banana was excellent as well. They have a very nice wine list, and I highly recommend having wine with the food, cause it's really rich and greasy, and if you don't have something like wine to wash it down with, you won't get your money's worth.

One negative thing I have to say about the place is the service. I don't know. maybe I dressed too casually. but our waiter was.......always busy with something else. You know that trick they pull on you--"if I don't look at them, I don't have to serve them" thing? He was pulling it all night. Even our payment was handled by another waitress. We even thought they had a shift change until he walked passed us, and served another family at another table. Maybe If I take some Louis-Vuitton bag, or wear Jimmy Choo shoes with lots of make-up next time, he'll pay more attention.

Other then that, it was great!!
