In Short – It's hard to miss the 27-foot tall wine cellar that juts high above La Cienega at this Gaucho steakhouse, which originated in Brazil. Inside, subtle earth tones, rich wood and soft lighting set the scene for the large skewers of beef, lamb, pork and chicken that are roasted over an open flame and carved tableside. Buffet-style salads and sides such as crispy polenta, sweet fried plantains and cheese bread accompany the signature meats. Traditional beverages such as Guarana, a popular Brazilian soft drink, are served in addition to an an extensive wine list and full bar…

One of the best meals ever

Now THAT's good eatin'!
If you're in the mood for beef, pork, chicken or all of the above, and have a HUGE appetite, this is the place to go! The food is great, the service is amazing, and did I mention the food is GREAT!
Try not to fill up on the salad bar, and save room for the main course! Order a bottle of wine, and enjoy.
But beware, it can get pricey there...but totally worth it!
- Pros: Great food, great service
- Cons: Pricey, but worth it

It?s an over priced salad bar!

I am astonished that there is only one other one star review on Citysearch for Fogo de Chao. I am completely and utterly floored. Honestly, is this everyone?s idea of a five star restaurant? Salty meat on a stick and a do it yourself salad bar for $56.50 per person!!!??? Are you all joking??? For two meals, two caipirinhas, a dessert and tax & tip, the dinner came out to $185! Yeah, you read that right: $185 for two drinks, meat on a stick and a MEDIOCRE salad bar with such exotic items like hearts of palm from a jar and iceberg lettuce. This is by far the most OVER-PRICED chain restaurant with the most BLAND, UNEXCEPTIONAL FOOD I have ever had the displeasure of attending. And the ambiance? With the loud children and the several people dressed in jeans and a t-shirt it feels like you?re eating at a VEGAS BUFFET. Did I mention I spent $185 so that my girlfriend and I could serve ourselves at a salad bar!? For these prices, I could have taken her to Katana or STK and had a way, way, WAY better meal. It gets one star for the cheese bread but that?s it. I completely get why there are no prices on the menus or on their website. By the time your find out you paid top dollar for an all you can eat salad bar, it?s too late. A total rip-off for pedestrian tastes!
- Pros: Cheese Bread
- Cons: FAR too expensive for a salad bar and meat on a stick.
