Fogo de Chao Brazilian Steakhouse - OrlandoGreat food, great service.There's little more I can say than "wow". The meat selection is phenomenal as is the salad bar. If you're going for the first time, don't let them fill you up on salad and side items. Save room for the meat. Fantastic. All of it. Our waiter asked us if we'd received all the meat we wanted and when I told him I still hadn't found the lamb, he asked how I wanted it cooked and walked to the kitchen and called for it. Within seconds all three lamb guys were at my table. Drinks were great as was our creme brûlée dessert. Took my dad here for Father's Day and they gave him a gift card for a free visit.
$42 a seat may seem expensive but not when you consider what you get. Don't expect to spend the night here though, you'll be full within 20 min.6/15/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat lunch!Great food, attentive staff, overall an outstanding lunch.6/10/2013 12:00:00 AMFantasticWe used to go to Texas de Brazil until we found Fogo!

You definitely will not leave hungry. Nor will you go long with an empty plate, as long as you're showing your green button.5/15/2013 12:00:00 AMMeat lovers dreamAnother Brazilian steak house chain with excellent service and good food. I had just the salad bar for $25 which is extensive and includes some pricey items like an entire wheel of Parmesan cheese, beautiful asparagus spears, hearts of palm, and smoked salmon along with the usual salad bar veggies. There were also a few hot items, rice, beans and roasted new potatoes. My husband had the full dinner for $45 and the meat, in particular the beef, was excellent as was the lamb. The pork was so-so. The meat kept coming and there was quite a variety, from sirloin to rib eye to two kinds of filet mignon. We also had a couple of glasses of pinot noir at $12 ea. It was a very good dinner.5/3/2013 12:00:00 AMSimply awesome. The food isSimply awesome.

Food and service were excellent. Meats were prepared beautifully to all different temperatures (rare, medium, etc.)to please everyone and were deliciously seasoned. They had a nice variety of meats. The leg of lamb with lemon and pepper was one of my favorites, along with their specialty sirloin, picanha. I would forgo the overpriced desserts, but my daughter loved the Tres Leches cake. It was a big enough piece to share with everyone!4/12/2013 12:00:00 AMlovely nightas always the food is spectacular! After requesting rare meat for the table thats all they were bringing us it was great. the meat was not overly salted. very tender and all around delish! dessert was ok, tasted liek it had been in the fridge too long.4/8/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat!Fantastic selection of meats and amazing salad bar.

You never feel out-of-place to ask anyone for anything, as it is definitely a group effort with the serving staff. They made us feel very welcome, and brought a nice dessert as a low-key birthday treat.

Ever.I have eaten at many fine restaurants in my travels and can say without a doubt that Fogo de Chao is the best. It sets the bar for Brazilian steakhouses, no one else even comes close. I have enjoyed Fogo de Chao many times at several locations and have always experienced great food, service, and ambiance.3/16/2013 12:00:00 AM
