My nephews love our annual birthday celebration at Fogo. It's a dining experience that exceeds my expectations every single time. The salad bar is full of fresh, delicious salads and so much more. My youngest nephew reports that the Caesar salad is the best in the world. Then moving on to the main course - the incredible selection of meats, carved table-side by gauchos, is cooked to perfection. Our favorites this time included the bottom sirloin, the bacon-wrapped chicken, and the spicy pork sausage. The gaucho's attention to detail is top-notch especially when they notice your favorite meats. A favorite at our table is the roasted pineapple. The boys have been talking about it since last year. The family-style sides are also so tasty. Save room for dessert because they do this well too! The food is amazing, but it's the service that makes this place special. The servers never let a glass go dry, and the managers are friendly and present. They all remember the smallest details. While it's a trek down from Duluth, we look forward to are annual visit. Thank you for giving this aunt a special experience to share with the nephews!

Sean was an amazing server, one of the best!! He was extremely attentive, welcoming, and made sure we were well taken care of. This is the BEST five star restaurant, amazing food and ambiance. We chose to have steak, chicken, and a plethora of other meats. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND this restaurant for ambiance, food, customer service, and overall experience. THANK YOU FOGO!!!!!!!!

We had such a wonderful experience celebrating both my birthday and my mom’s at Fogo de Chão last night! From the moment we walked in, the service was top-notch and the food was absolutely delicious. The steak was hands-down my favorite — perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. I also really enjoyed the fresh fruits and the variety of meats and cheeses available at the Market Table. It’s a great way to start the meal and balance out the rich cuts of meat that come around. For dessert, we indulged in the crème brûlée, the crème brûlée cheesecake, and the Key lime pie — and honestly, all three were fabulous! My boyfriend chose the indulgent upgrade and tried the crab cakes, which were just okay, so next time we’ll probably go for the lobster tail instead. One great tip: we had no problem using our $25 birthday reward, which was a nice bonus and saved us a bit — I definitely recommend signing up for that if you haven’t already! The service was excellent — our waiter, Shawn, was attentive and friendly, and the manager made sure everything was going smoothly. We also met a super kind gentleman named John at the Market Table who made us feel extra welcome. We left completely full and happy! My only minor critique would be the mashed potatoes that come with the meal — they weren’t my favorite, so next time I might splurge and try the lobster mashed potatoes instead. All in all, it was a fantastic evening with great food, wonderful service, and an inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend for special occasions!

It's totally worth the money! They have parking next door, so just follow the GPS there! I had the best experience. I was treated like a queen. The food was good and they mean it thay you can stay all day eating until your full. The meat had flavor and the staff was amazing! There was a woman in black who worked the floor and kept my wine glass full!! Thank you for making me feel welcome!! Loved the service and food.

Our food was great, as expected, but the real reward was having Emily as our server!!! Her hospitality exceeded all expectations. One of the gauchos dropped meat on my shorts, they offered dry cleaning and anything they could. The best part was how she catered to us and treated us like we were at the Royal Table. The pineapple and grilled cheese is a must have, 10 out of 10 recommend. Such a great experience.
