Description

It would be difficult for even the most refined carnivore to refrain from licking his chops when first laying eyes on this South Brazilian restaurant. Scurrying from table to table are seemingly dozens of waiters in gaucho garb with flashing knives and long skewers of meat. Lunch and dinner are on a flat-rate-per-person basis, which includes all the meat you can eat, and a colorful, panoramic salad bar. All the meat is first-rate. Waiters advise you to pace yourself. "Relax," they say. But how can anyone relax when everything about this place says "dive in"?

    Just ate at Fogo de Chao last night - their steak is heavenly! Also, they have a deal right now... go with 4 people and get a free bottle of wine, so take advantage of that like we did!!

    Churrascaria is a great place to go when you are hungry--inside tip from someone who used to work in a similar Brazilian steakhouse--don't fill up on the salad bar (which is amazing) before the guachos start bringing out the different meats. This place is a carnivore's dream.
