   We have eaten here for special occasions for years. We love starting in the bar and then moving over to the dining room..This was the 1st bad experience we have had. The only place that delivered was the bar and bartender who was terrific! served brilliant Caipirinha’s! We moved to the dining room where we were seated and it went down hill from there. Food was very slow to come out with much of it being a version of different sirloins none of which were hot and most of which were tough to chew.. flavor was ok at best. One of their specialties is the picanha, but it came out pretty rare. My wife asked for a medium piece and they never came back out. We then asked for ribeye, which was the first hot steak we received. It was very good but again rare, my wife asked for another medium piece and they again never came back. two of my favorite things are the chicken thigh’s and the chicken legs. The chicken legs were burnt bad and should’ve never been brought out and I never saw the chicken thighs. my favorite thing of the night was the lamb, which was very good. The service was good, but not as great as it usually is. Not even close. The bill for five of us, including drinks, was over $600. I’d like to give it another chance but can’t take the chance at that price. overall very disappointing…

   On a double date with some friends, we found the restaurant very busy but efficient and timely with the service. Our server was attentive and friendly. The server took the time to explain the process as most of us have not eaten here before. Only negative was my spouse’s salmon came out overcooked, and it took so long to get the replacement my spouse opted to take at home.

   We had a wonderful office dinner here in a private room. All of the meats were offered to us often and tasted delicious! The salad bars were fully stocked and the service was wonderful. Highly recommend!

   M add in service was very good. The meat service was very slow and seemed bunched. Salad bar was amazing as always.

   Totally not worth the experience. The majority of the waiters looked angry or came across arrogant. The people who cut the meat were super bland you want meat slice and rushed off. I’ve been to true brazilian steak houses across the country and the vibe is exciting and welcoming you feel like you are in Brazil. This place is totally not worth the price. The service is really poor save your money

   This was the second time we've been there on a holiday. The first was kind of lack luster. This time around was an amazing experience, to say the least. The gauchos had meat at our table all the time. We came away very satisfied.

   We attended on Thanksgiving day! They were well staffed with every table booked. The meat was delicious. Best cheesecake ever. Salad bar well stocked. We have been to Fogo in Miami and Chicago. . This was almost as good as would definitely recommend. Staff was super attentive and servers came by frequently.

   The ambiance and food were phenomenal. The price in the menu was higher than what is on the website and this was not based on Taste of Brazil. It seemed the price was raised to nearly $63 each for Thanksgiving.

   We got out back in a room and had to delve serve our waters. Meats only came around 3 times and at times when they did come around they did not stop at our table
