We have celebrated at Fogo many times, typically on the weekends. This time we went on a Monday. We were immediately seated and enjoyed having less of a crowd. However, we noticed the wait time for meat was longer than on busy days, many due to less servers. Overall, we still had a great experience and enjoyed our complimentary birthday dessert!

I come to King’s Fish House somewhat often. It never disappoints. The food is consistently delicious, servers are friendly and attentive, and the price is about what you’d expect. My friend and I typically get the blackened salmon dinners, share a salad and dessert. Runs about $100 plus tip!
