   Food was great as usual, but felt rushed which had not happened before. Noise level was high because it was so busy.

   The food was bland. The meats were not coming around very often and there wasn't much variety. They didn't have fountain soda, which also meant no free refills. The restaurant was not set up very well to have room to move around the other tables to go to your table, the salad bar, restroom, etc. The parking lot was also not very conveniently made. This was my first time, and last time, there. It was not worth the $77 it cost for just me, and that was with a soda and not any alcohol....

   The experience at Fogo Gaucho was better than other Brazilian steak restaurants where I've dined.

   All forms of meat were good. Top Sirloin Cap was very good. Chicken wrapped in bacon, yum. Nice salad bar, not as large as some but had a good variety. Wonderful service, very attentive. Quite a few wines were only sold by the bottle and we had a nice one from Chile for 38.00. We went at 430 on Saturday and it was not overly busy and it was not too noisy either. We will be going back!

   The staff at this restaurant was exceptional—everyone was attentive and hardworking, ensuring we were well taken care of. The service was friendly and welcoming, making for a great dining experience. The food was delicious, though I would have loved to see a bit more variety on the salad bar. Overall, a fantastic visit!

   I expected SO MUCH MORE! The service was horrible, the food was mediocre, the meat was extremely salty and fatty on most pieces. Then the people running the tables were passing us up even though our green cards were up. Spoke with the manager and he just tried to offer us some old cheesecake. Yeah, we won’t be back. Had a larger party that they couldn’t accommodate.

    It was our first time here and we loved it! The waitress was patient with us and explained how the dining experience is at Fogao Gaucho. Definitely will be back!
