    • Q:

      What is the price for lunch? And do they offer a happy hour?

      A:

      I'm not sure about lunch but each location approaches happy hour differently. If you go to the location in Manhattan you can have the meat selection and happy hour. The queens location (the one I prefer) you can have both.

      This is definitely an experience and come hungry! My friends and I decided to try it out after hearing really good things and had a great time. The space itself is quite large, but I think sitting in the middle of the room is the best spot so the servers come by often. The service is great and very attentive. My water was never empty.

      As for the food it was quite good! The buffet has so many options, but definitely save your appetite for when the meats come around. There were so many different types of meat and cut, but my favorite was the house special.

      I'm already looking forward to the next time I visit!

      Ate way too much at this place Tonight. Enjoyed many of the meats they came out with.

      This is a big place with super high ceiling if you are in the main dining room. Very cool looking place.

      The servers bring the meat out regularly and offer good portions. The salad bar had good things especially the bean salads.

      Had the Jorge's sour drink which was OK.

      OooooMmmmGgggg!! A must for any meat lover!

      An absolutely elegant ambiance with a comfortable non-pretentious vibe! The staff were great, and very accommodating! That meat was non-stop flowing, and EVERY single portion was deliciously cooked! Needless to say, we'll be coming back here again and again for special occasions!

      Bon a petit!

      We went to the Long Island location and had a terrible experience. Taking another chance, we tried the Midtown location and glad we did. We got seated quickly for our reservation. The waiters were super attentive and our waters were always refilled. The gauchos came around CONSTANTLY. We even got to try the rib eye and porterhouse multiple times. Salad bar is good as always. They have a great all day HH with wine for $8. My husband got a CleanV BECs (non alcoholic) and it was really good too. Dessert took a while to come out but the lava cake was warm and gooey. Overall, come here to load up on meats but don't expect the meat to be top quality. We found that the meat needed salt too but we were pretty satisfied.

      A friend invited me to brunch on a Sunday to celebrate my birthday. I was the first one in my party to arrive. The host asked if they could put my coat in coat check and I agreed.

      Once the entire party arrived, we went downstairs. The area that my friends liked to sit in wasn't open. We sat down and ordered our drinks. The group decided to participate in the Churrasco Experience that included the Brunch Market Table.

      I ordered a Jorge's Sour it was delicious. The addition of Malbec in the drink tasted great. I went to the market table, and I was surprised that there weren't any eggs on the table. The meats that I enjoyed the most was the lamb chops; they were very small. I wish they gave two of those. As the time went on, I inquired about the Beef Ribs because I never saw them come out. I found out that you had to request them, and they would be made at that time. The beef ribs were delicious, and they were seasoned well. We ended up ordering a second one b/c we had someone in the group that didn't eat pork. I didn't like that another server came to the table and told him to save some for another table.

      They make table side Caipirinha drinks. I ordered the Strawberry Hibiscus; I wish I would've ordered the Passionate Caipirinha because the Strawberry one was very sweet.

      I was surprised with a Chocolate Molten Cake with candles for my birthday. It was delicious. Chocolate is my favorite dessert. Overall, I had a great time.

      Food & Drink:
      The Churrasco experience ($76pp) exceeded expectations, featuring an expansive salad bar offering delights like smoked salmon, prosciutto, and fresh salads. The parade of meats to the table, including lamb, sirloin steak, sausages, bacon-wrapped chicken, and chicken wings, was exceptionally tender and juicy. The standout was the Brazilian cheese bread, incredibly chewy and delicious--multiple rounds were a must.

      The cocktails were a pleasant surprise, both excellent and reasonably priced. With wines at $8 and cocktails ranging from $10-12, the drink selection complemented the dining experience beautifully.

      Service:
      The service was exceptional, with attentive waitstaff ensuring a steady flow of meat by flipping the card to green. We enjoyed approximately 5 rounds of mouthwatering meats. Celebrating my girlfriend's birthday, the staff surprised us with a complimentary chocolate cake, a delightful touch that added to the overall positive experience.

      Ambiance:
      Ideal for both intimate date nights and lively celebrations, the ambiance at Churrasco sets the stage perfectly for an All-You-Can-Eat meat extravaganza. The ease of deciding on Churrasco ensures that everyone can revel in the feast, making it an excellent choice for various occasions.

      I love experience dining and this dinner offers exactly that. Ambiance is perfect, dimly lit and robust, very NY city midtown vibe. Servers were nice. The meat selection was amazing, they served everything from chicken to ribeye, all were really tasty!!

      The mashed potatoes were something special. And I enjoy the buffet, the salad bar portion is extensive, which lots of options. I wish there were a few more hot items offered.
      All in all the food was flavorful and good quality. Weekends include a nice daytime happy hour, which was a plus, we had nice glasses of $8 wine.

      Fogo de Chão offers more than just a meal - it's a unique dining experience. This upscale Brazilian steakhouse provides an all-you-can-eat meat carved tableside, complemented by an extensive salad bar. The attentive servers consistently offered a variety of meats, from lamb chops to bacon-wrapped chicken, while ensuring our plates were never empty. We indulged in tasty bread alongside delightful drinks that were consistently refilled.

      While it may lean towards the pricier side, the experience is undeniably worthwhile. Just a friendly tip: pace yourself with those delicious meat offerings, as they add up quickly. You wouldn't want to miss out on dessert! The dim lighting and inviting ambiance add to the overall charm of the place. Already looking forward to our next visit.

      First time here and the waiters explained everything clearly. They come around with different meats for the churrasco experience, which is totally worth in my opinion. They let you know what type of meat it is. The prime sirloin was the best portion, although I missed out on the lamb chops and a few others. Maybe those were quickly being brought to the private rooms first before coming out to the general room. You can let them know what meat you're looking for and they will make sure it gets warmed and brought to you. They don't charge for wasted foods. You just flip the circle card when you want/ don't want more meats for the moment.

      The side dishes were so good. I loved the bread with cheese inside. The texture reminded me of mochi. The mashed potato was a fan favorite. The yuca fries were sadly a bit too hard, but the plantains were caramelized and soft and warm. The salad bar was also very good palette cleanser. You need a break from eating red meats and there's not only salad, but yogurt, fruit, cheese, bread, and more. I love using the cream from the loaf cake for my yogurt and fruit. Maybe because we came for a weekend brunch, but there was a station with waffles as well (sweet and savory). They were also coming around with drinks but it wasn't included in our experience- id be careful if that if you only want to do the Churrasco and not pay extra. On my reservation I noted it was a birthday, but they didn't have a complementary cake or anything unlike the other reviews I saw. Nonetheless, great time here!
