Best Steakhouses in Kirkland

Pretty sure it was the best steak I ever had! It was absolutely delicious! We also had delicious wine and the dessert wine flight. It was an excellent experience!

Was a fantastic experience as always. I always feel special when I dine or drink here.

The octopus appetizer was spectacular, particularly since it was my first time trying octopus (besides accidentally trying it as a sashimi). My steak was ordered as medium well and came out more well done than I expected. The service staff was on point too. Music is slightly louder which gives it a club like atmosphere rather than a traditional steakhouse restaurant atmosphere. That said, this is the place to be for a Christmas dinner!!

As usual, there were not many restaurants open close to where we live Christmas Day 2024. So I turned to my trusted app -- Open Table - which I could use to narrow down the day. Fofo de Chao sounded intriguing, so I booked one of the few openings -- 4:45PM. Around 3:30PM a 7PM time had opened up, so I cancelled the 4:45PM time AFTER I booked the 7PM time. That way, I was assured we had a time and our prior time was opened up for others. Because we had a reservation, we waited about 10 minutes to be seated. There were about 40 people in line, who we had to assume did NOT have reservations. Thank you, Open Table! We were seated close to the front window in a semi-private 2-person table, which we appreciated greatly. Our wait person Marsala could not have been more personable and professional. Because we had not eaten in the restaurant before, and because there was a special holiday presentation, Marsala explained to us how the entire process worked. Everything started with a self-service salad bar (like those that existed before Coid-19), which was pleasant. Large plates were available instead of the very small ones other venues offer. Once we were at out table, my wife and I were both given 2-inch-in-diameter paper discs. One side up indicated you were not ready for meats. Flip it, and a steady stream of carvers came to us offering different meats -- carved at the table and put on our plates. The meats were not overcooked, and overall were delicious. Our check, including an 18% (voluntary) tip on food+tax was $208. So at ages 80 and 84 on fixed incomes, we will be reserving Fogo de Chao for special occasions. But we were very happy with the whole experience. You will not leave hungry!

AMAZING SERVICE! I made a mistake and booked the bar seating or my family on Christmas Eve...and they made room for us! Christmas Miracle!
