Many servers carried food to the customers and passed it to us many times. We didn't have a chance to eat chickens!

Christmas dinner was not a good experience , extremely slow poor service. The restaurant was overbooked and the servers could not keep up. At one point we waited 30 minutes for any meat servers to visit our table even though our cards were on green. We all left feeling disappointed in our experience, the dinner was definitely not worth the price. I would never visit this location on a holiday again

Amazing place. The food in particular the salad bar was superb. I had two issues: 1) You need to check the bill because they tried to charge for me for two extra drinks. 2) I had to ask multiple times to be brought drinks. Normally I don't check the bill because I trust the server staff, however this time I am glad I had checked the bill. To their credit they did immediately correct the bill without questions when I point out the issue.

This location of Fogo de Chao is simply the best. The salad bar was kept fully stocked, which was priceless for those in our party only having that. The service was top notch, our server constantly staying in touch making sure we had anything we wanted. The beauty of this restaurant is that you walk in and everyone can start eating. We had a large group and everyone was happy. For dessert, you must get the Fladgate Port and Crème Brûlée.

Absolutely amazing. Had reservations and came early to start at the bar. The food was perfect. From the salad bar, to the meats, to the dessert. Drinks were very good, as well. The service was impeccable. We never had an empty plate or glass, and were checked on continuously. Highly recommend this establishment.
