Another outstanding meal at Fogo De Chao at the Wharf. Superb service. Every manager came by to check on our table to make sure our experience was perfect. With excellent wine recommendations “Meiomi Pinot Noir California 2022” from manager Ricardo. Thanks again for an amazing Fogo experience and beautiful new location at the Wharf. Check it out! Five stars *****

La comida EXCELENTE, el mejor rodizio que he probado, la carne muy buena calidad, el bar de comida deliciosa con una sopa de zanahoria con jengibre que estaba divina, unos pimientos exquisitos, la ensalada de pollo me encantó a igual que el corn street muy bueno, PERO el servicio de la mesera muy malo fuimos por nuestro aniversario y no nos tomaron en cuenta para nada pues si uno selecciona un restaurante para una celebración en específica es porque considera que es un lugar digno de celebrar pero esta vez no fue así, ni felicidades ni postre ni nada, y mi esposa también estaba de cumpleaños y ni felicitación, la carne tuvimos que pedir que nos la llevaran porque no pasaban creo que solo nos dieron a probar 3 y a cada rato pollo ni cordero nos ofrecieron, y lo que más te atrae a este tipo de restaurante la famosa piña con canela específicamente en este NO HAY, el manager salió a disculparse que no la tenían porque la gente se volvía “loca” iba mucha gente y no podían darlo, que solo había piña regular en el bar, es decir, vas por algo en específico que lo ofrecen en el menú Y NO LO HAY. De por si el lugar donde está ubicado el restaurante muy bonito y el mismo muy lindo. Pero les hace falta personal dispuesto a servir y de calidad. La comida sabrosa pero la atencion 0 puntos.

I am thrilled that there is a Fogo de Chao at the Wharf, DC . It was a great experience!!! From the time we entered, the Hostesses greeted us warmly and the servers were superb. As is the custom with this restaurant, the supply and variety of food was endless. But what was exceptional, was the kindness of each and every one of the servers. The floating bartender was exceptional. I enjoyed conversing with him while he prepared my specialty drink. And last but certainly not least, Mr. Joseph Vilorio, the customer service representative, was OUTSTANDING!!!! He checked on us throughout to ensure our dining experience was a great one...and indeed it was. We are definitely going to make this restaurant our " go to". THANK YOU!!!!!

My husband and I were absolutely thrilled to discover there’s a Fogo at The Wharf, just 18 minutes from our home! It felt like such a perfect find for us. We usually frequent the Tyson location, but this new one has truly exceeded our expectations. Our server, Mosiah, was remarkably friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. The staff was genuinely helpful and polite, which made our experience even better. The food, as always, was excellent! We were particularly impressed with the outstanding salad bar and the delicious drinks, especially the refreshing pineapple shot. The space itself is beautiful – so classy and spacious! We left feeling really happy and can’t wait to come back.

We reserved a table at 9pm, which unbeknownst to me it is their closing time. Items were limited on the menu and they were wrapping up for the night. The last reservation time should not be at closing. The times needs to be adjusted on their website.

We avoided the food bar, or whatever they called it, and each got seafood entrees, which were excellent. A little pricey but not unexpected by DC standards. One very minor complaint —The wait staff was a little too friendly. They had a ton of people on the floor, which is a good thing. But it seemed like servers and others were checking on us about every 90 seconds. A little privacy would have been nice. Still, a very good meal and I will return.

Went on a girls date and we skipped the ‘experience’ and ordered steak and salmon. I waited almost 45 as I watched everyone else eating. Friend had to send her salmon back to be warmed up from waiting on me.
