To Our Guests:The amount of guests that you make a reservation for is what you will have available. Example: If you make a reservation for 4 guests and put in the notes that you need a table for 8 guests- you will not have a table for 8 guests but only for 4 guests that you made the reservation for.Seats at the bar itself are NOT able to be reserved- they are very limited and are first come first serve. If you book the bar tables on Opentable- the reservation will be for the tables in the lounge that are located behind the bar.Seats on the patio are also NOT able to be reserved. If a reservation is made and in the notes you have requested outside or patio this does not guarantee you an outside table.We look forward to seeing you soon.

    Service was amazing, Paul was our server, and he was very friendly and attentive. Cocktails were well balanced, and everything we had was delicious. We were celebrating my husband's birthday, and he received a complimentary dessert. We'll definitely be back.

    First time visit, wasn’t sure of what dining experience we would expect. We were pleasantly surprised and impressed. The atmosphere, quality of service and food was excellent! The waiter, Sam was friendly and very polite. Explained the menu choices and the sides to enjoy with our steak. The manager Alex was very friendly and welcoming. The menu has excellent offerings other than just steaks. The food was exceptionally delicious and hot, not lukewarm. Steaks were cooked to our satisfaction and sides were as well, not like they were sitting under a warming lamp. The caramelized onions and mushrooms were excellent as well as the creamed spinach, highly recommend both. The atmosphere and decor is luxurious and inviting with soft warm lighting. A very special place for a special occasion or event, yet one you will want to enjoy any night of great dining. We will definitely return for the fine dining experience or enjoying the happy hour. Great time.

    Subject: Thank You for a Wonderful Experience at Fogo de Chão Dear Management: I just wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for the wonderful experience we had at Fogo de Chão. Our waitress was very attentive and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. The drink bar was a delightful addition, and we truly indulged in everything the restaurant offered. From the steak and lamb to the chicken, Wagyu steak, crab cakes, lobster, and the salad bar, everything was exceptional. We also appreciated the thoughtful gesture of providing a plate with "Happy Birthday" written on it, complete with a candle. The staff singing to our birthday participants made the occasion even more special. Thank you for making our celebration memorable. We look forward to visiting again! Best regards, Crystal and Linda Bday girls.
