- JJUANNew York City •4 reviews4.0Dined on Oct 27, 2024Great place but service was not good. A couple of servers were very helpful but the hostess was actually quasi hostile despite us having a reservation and plenty of tables available. Ordered a second round of drinks and they arrived 30 min later, pretty much on top of the dessert. Need to work on thatMore infoFogo de Chao - BrooklynPrice: Moderate• Brazilian• Downtown Brooklyn•3.9
- KKARENvipNew York City •2 reviews5.0Dined on Oct 23, 2024Service excellent. Food excellent. One diner had a Shrimp dish which was a little light on quantity of shrimp. He was still hungry. Was very good though. Nice selection of beer & cocktails. Pisco Punch was great. A bit tight on seating & warm - more than one table of people were fanning themselves with menu. Would definitely go back.More infoPollo D'OroPrice: Moderate• Peruvian• Downtown Brooklyn•4.5
