    Nice restaurant, our waiter showed up 15 minutes after we got there, only came to our table one time, forgot part of her order and they stopped coming around with the meat so we had to ask for it. Wouldn’t go back again.

    A terrible dining experience, and one that, sadly, appears to be the norm for this Fogo location. Service remains disjointed, slow, and unprofessional. They really need a strong front of house manager who can recruit and train the servers. We will not be returning.

    Enjoyed the meat selections. The upgrade for premium meats not worth the extra charge. Slow in getting the filet mignon and beef ribs out to guests. Very nice salad bar selection. Mashed potatoes serve w salad bar and therefore cold when we ate them. Select the bottom sirloin, medium, best flavor. Enjoyed our meal and would recommend the Taste of Brazil for $49/person.
    Fogo de Chao - MinneapolisResponded on May 20, 2025
    Tom, we're pleased that you enjoyed our selection of cuts and the variety at our Market Table. Your feedback on the timing of our filet mignon and beef ribs, as well as the mashed potatoes, is appreciated, and we'll address these concerns. We hope to welcome you back for another experience soon. Best,

    They took our reservation at 9 PM but they seem to be rushing us as they were closing at 9 PM as well. It was very unprofessional and they should adjust their reservation times if they want to be closed at a certain time they should not take reservations if they’re going to be closed within that hour

    I was expecting more. The buffet was alright. Nothing that wowed me. Also wish there was some hot vegetables verses cold ones. The meats were solid. The pineapple that comes around though was delicious and the fried cheese was also a big hit. But I would give it an overall 3.
