Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse

Been to multiple brazilian style steak houses in Las Vegas. The food here was great, salad bar was fenomminal, but what puts this steak house above the others is the service. Super friendly servers, my cup was never empty, plate was never left dirty, and plate was never empty. The cherry on the top was the manager, Chris. This guy was great, asked multiple times if we were ok and definitely went out of the way to make our experience.

Came here to THIS location for the first time, during this years Restaurant Week: D I had once had Fogo de Chao for the first time, a few years ago, when it was participated in Restaurant week. We had liked it so much, we had looked forward to it the coming years… but for 1 – 2 years, they did not participate. BUT ! It came back ! woo !
We had a 12:30P reservation. Upon arrival, we were promptly seated by the window. Service was amazing. The waitress was super nice. Our waters were never empty and quickly refilled with any sort of depletion.
We were told to check out the salad bar while waiting for drinks and the meats to come out. Salad bar had a wide selection of fruits, veggies, cheeses, cured meats and a few hot dishes (didnt really look but looks like brunch items). As their flyer states «Fresh seasonal salads, exotic vegetables, imported cheeses, smoked salmon, cured meats, and more. Fogo feijoada (traditional black bean stew with sausage) served with rice, fresh orange and farofa (baked yucca flour with bacon), seasonal soup, and more. Visit as often as you like.»
The main course seems a bit more «reduced» than we had originally experienced before. The flyer online states:
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — –
Continuous tableside service of signature cuts of meat. Prepared, fire-​roasted, and served by our gaucho chefs. Choices include:
Picanha* (Sirloin) — Prime part of the top sirloin, seasoned with sea salt or garlic
Alcatra* (Top Sirloin) — One of our largest steaks, tender and thinly sliced
Fraldinha* (Bottom Sirloin) — Flavorful cut, with strong marbling
Cordeiro* (Lamb) — Fresh leg of lamb
Lombo (Pork) — Parmesan-​encrusted pork loin filets
Costela de Porco (Pork Ribs) — Marinated and slow-​roasted for tenderness
Linguiça (Pork Sausage) — Slow-​roasted and savory
Frango (Chicken) — Bacon-​wrapped breast or tender legs
Traditional Brazilian Sides — Warm pão de queijo (cheese bread), crispy polenta, mashed potatoes, and caramelized bananas. Served throughout the meal.
Dessert — Choice of chocolate mousse cake, key lime pie, or tres leches cake.
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — –
When we were sat at our table, the waitress had asked us if we were dining normally or part of Restaurant Week. Originally we did not know there was a difference. She had swapped the cards you use to show if you had more interest in more meat or not from a regular round one to a heart shaped one.
Later we had looked at the flyer and had realized selections like lamb chops, filet mignon, rib eye, etc were not available to the «restaurant week diners».
We had seen the rib eye brought to us but the guy quickly realized it was not part of ours and walked away saying hed return. Another had brought lamb chops to us like he didnt care. The lamb chops was flavorful but quite overcooked to point where some end pieces of the bone would break off easily and the meat be overcooked a bit.
Aside from that, the picanha, alcatra, leg of lamb were delicious ! my favorite cuts of the day. We never saw the pork ribs or pork sausage. Chicken leg was pretty decent. Crispy outside, juicy tender inside. Friend noted his was a little on the dry side.
Warm cheese bread with a side of herb sauce was delicious. The herb sauce reminded me of this cilantro herb sauce my friend had introduced to me. Worked wonderfully with almost anything. Brightness from lemon with a nice, fresh herb flavor, and olive oil.
Dessert, 2 of us got the mousse cake, 2 got the tres leches, and i got the key lime pie. Mousse was nice and chocolatey. Really rich if you add the frosting and what not on top. But the cake base itself was nice and moist. Really the «regretful» cake. As for the tres leches. Super sweet, moist, but definitely sweet. «diabetes on a plate» as we nicknamed this. The key lime pie was the «healthiest» of the 3 but only by a little. Still a dessert in the end. Nice bright tart flavor from the key lime without the whipped cream top being too heavy.
Overall, still a pretty good meal and to a good cause. Worth the price for lunch and the yearly meal. xD Service was amazing as said previously.

Came in for lunch and had an amazing meal. I’ve been to a few Fogos before, but my best experience was here in Summerlin, mostly because of the relaxed atmosphere, the friendliness of the staff, and the excellent selection of meats for lunch. They brought out a lot of ribeye, which I wasn’t expecting during lunch. The brunch cocktails were excellent as well.
Will definitely repeat.

Never have ever eaten at a Fogo. This was just a mad rush decision the wife and I had. We were under dressed and just been out and about shopping and decided we better eat.
We were seated right away and had our drinks before returning from the salad bar. This was an early dinner right at 5:00. The guys were right on with the meats. They have a new citrus chicken with a slight tang.
I’m also not a big lamb eater and the lamb chops were very tasty.
It was hard to turn the card to red it was so wonderful. We ended up eating so much we couldn’t have pie. Maybe next time.
We will be back!!!

Have been to Fogo de Chao Brazilian Steakhouse in Summerlin several times and LOVE it !!
I have always had excellent service and think the Market Table (salad bar) is one of the best in this town. The meat service is overwhelming at times but that is the fun of the meal in the first place. I would give them 10 stars if that option was available !!
This type of dining isn’t for everyone but you should try it at least once.

I love these Brazilian steakhouses. But tonight, I’m sad to say I was a little disappointed. The salad bar was not that great; not as many selections as their other location. The plantains were good, but the potatoes were very cold. The beef ribs were sooooo tender. Cooked very well BUT soooooo salty. They were way over salted. I thought it was just my piece, but others at the table complained of the same thing. The zucchini at the salad bar is usually one of my faves, but today they were way over cooked and were too mushy. The mushrooms are also usually my go-​to side with meats but they also weren’t that good. We had a reservation at 8:30 so IF I decide to come back again, I would probably avoid scheduling close to end of business hour just incase that’s the reason why my experience lacked satisfaction. I would most likely go back to the other location.
Dessert — crème brule was delish!
Customer service was pretty good as well.

I went there today with friends. It was OK. I cannot say that I was blown away by this restaurant but I can say that it was very expensive for what was offered. We went during lunch time on a Sunday. There was not very much choice in terms of the types of meat that were offered. It was, quite frankly, grossly disappointing. The choices in the area of the buffet were OK. The plantains and cheese bread that came to the table were very yummy. The polenta fries were way too dry.
I was underwhelmed and do not plan on going back for a lunch time bill, with tip included, of $ 40 per person.
I have been to much better Fogo de Chao’s so this was a sad experience for us.
My friends noticed that I barely touched any of the items from the buffet on my plate, as they barely touched theirs. More meat choices would have been a way better outcome. It must have been a slow day but that does not change the fact that it is still the same price and therefore not worth the value paid.

First visit on Friday for lunch.
Walked in, the seater was seating another couple that was there before me and my friend., as soon as she knowledge us she greeted us with a sweet smile, and asked if we had reservations. No reservations no problem! She seated us right away! And explain the menu and how it works, like I said our first visit we were looking for a different menu, you know just regular steak house menu type a thing. it’s a buffet steak house!
We were hungry but not that hungry., we ended up just ordering from the salad bar table $ 15and add a chicken breast $ 6 not bad! We were full plus coffee and sparkling water, very nice place and elegant service was great!
Oh they have a full wine list menu it’s like 3 – 4 pages.
We were satisfied for our experience!

My friend and I came here for their salad bar lunch and skipped the meat, a travesty I know.
This Fogo De Chao just recently opened in Downtown Summerlin and the service was impeccable. The restaurant was empty so all the servers were extra attentive with refills on drinks, bread, sides and clearing plates.
The salad bar was well stocked but they lacked any soup options, which would have been nice to enjoy as well.

I was excited to see that there was another Brazilian Steakhouse option on my side of town, so made reservations for the family for dinner. Service was fairly good, although our original server disappeared about half way through dinner, and we finally had to grab a random server to take his place. The salad bar had a lot of options, and was kept full while we were there. Raw asparagus seemed like an odd thing to put out, but everything else was ok. Not great, just ok.
Our cheese bread was cold when it came out (3 pieces the first time, two the second). When they started bringing the meat around, I was really disappointed by the first four cuts we had. The meat was very tough. They redeemed themselves a bit with the pork loin, chicken and sausages, which were all tasty and well cooked.
They bring out 3 sides (potatoes, fried bananas and fried polenta dusted with cheese).
After tip and cocktails, we ended up spending around $ 270 for a party of three. For the price, I am probably going to stick with Via Brazil. I found the cuts of meat to be much better and the variety of sides and salad bar a bit nicer.

First off, I would like to start off by saying that this is the first time I have ever been let down by any Brazilian Steakhouse I have ever been to, especially Fogo! I usually eat at the location by the Strip but we were told this location was newer and so we decided to try because we didn’t think there would be much of a difference. I was wrong!!! I mean the concept of a Brazilian Steakhouse is phenomenal! I mean who doesn’t like an endless amount of all you can eat steak, chicken, filet, ribs, sausage, ect!
The salad bar was a huge disappointment, they say it’s the same as the other locations but it definitely is NOT. The meat taste very different as well in my opinion. Our waiter that night told us that it was different because the cooking process was completely different. The caparinhas are an absolute must! It is a signature Brazilian drink that is to die for! But, watch yourself because they do creep up on you. The desserts are all delicious. Service was great and are waiter was as well! (Diego)

On Friday 1/​29^th, we were craving the original taste of Southern Brazil and thanks to many Unilocal reviews, decided to make reservations and dine @ Fogo de Chao Churrascuria Brazilian Steakhouse. The goal was to feast as carnivores, the gaucho way. AYCE-​All You Can Eat $ 49.95 per person + drinks, desserts, tax & tip.
This classy Downtown Summerlin restaurant offers a continuous tableside service of 16 different delectable cuts of beef, pork, lamb & chicken. Fogo also offers dining patrons an incredible gourmet salad bar called the «Market Table.»
Small green (go) and red (no) sided chips are used by diner to discreetly inform the gaucho chef (waiter) of personal interest (or not) for more large succulent cuts of sizzling meat that are hand carved & served tableside by authentic gaucho chefs, who are dressed uniform and are well educated on all culinary delights offered.
Our main servers were Matthew and Summer, however several gaucho chefs assisted our table for two.
The Market Table features gourmet salads, rare & exotic vegetables, fresh breads, imported cheeses, cured meats, more!
Meats I devoured include Picanha, Filet Mignon, Alcatra, Fraldinha, Beef Ancho, Cordeiro, Lamb Chops, Lombo, Costella de Porco, Frango & Linquica. All of them were seasoned to perfection, tender and full of rich flavor.
My favorites were Picanha & Cordeiro (leg of lamb).
All meals are complemented by traditional Brazilian side dishes like polenta, garlic mashed potatoes, caramelized bananas, and that world-​renowned warm cheese bread-​pao de queijo.
To drink, my date enjoyed her traditional Brazilian Caipirinha cocktail and I drank a dozen or more iced teas w/​fresh lemon wedge.
For dessert, she enjoyed and complimented the chocolate molten cake and I ordered a customized turtle cheesecake which was amazingly delicious and honestly the best I ever had.
When our bill arrived, I knew it would be pricey and was pleased to see the «for your convenience» gratuity section was calculated the proper way, based on the sub-​total.
Bottom line: High quality & delicious foods, impeccable service, classy atmosphere.

Unilocal 100 REVIEW CHALLENGE 2016: #38

This was our first time here. The salad bar was good, the food was good and the meat came around promptly and was flavorful. The one really outstanding thing about this restaurant that stands apart from many other places we go to was the customer service. Every person that came by our table to either refill drinks, get new plates or new meats were 100% personable and good at the job
We were very impressed and plan to come many more times in the future.

Disappearing servers, empty salad bar, cold pão de queijo (cheese bread), cheap quality meats and ill prepared meats are just a few of the serious problems that plague this location. The one by the Hughes Center is WAY better than this Downtown Summerlin location. I wondered why it was so easy to snag a reservation for 4 on a busy Friday night. I’m hoping that means the word is getting out about how crappy this location is!
I couldn’t believe how empty the salad bar was! There was hardly anything available! Mostly just pieces of lettuce and fruit fanned out in a pitiful attempt to hide the fact that there were missing platters of food items. It’s like they had the bare minimum that’s required by the franchise. For shame!
The service was among some of the worst I have ever had anywhere. Our guy dropped off water, drinks and a few of the «freebie» side dishes and then disappeared, never to be seen again. Did he quit? Go out to smoke and get run over by a bus? Who knows. The meat gauchos weren’t any better. While personable, it was like pulling teeth to get them to stop by our table. We had to BEG for some of the ribeye and filet — and even then we were given slices so small that I COULD EAT IT IN ONE BITE. I understand those are expensive meats but when all you bring out of the kitchen is the chicken thighs and sausage, it starts to annoy me. This is NOT a cheap meal by any means but I felt like the restaurant was trying desperately to save as much money as possible — at my expense.
The meats we did manage to get served were tough and either sorely undercooked or overcooked. The house sirloin was as tough as shoe leather. Nobody at our table could cut the dang thing and I chewed so much I thought I was going to have to go get a set of dentures afterwards. The «house special» ended up being spit into a napkin.
The freebie side dishes were an afterthought. Everybody loves those little cheesy puffs of deliciousness, the pão de queijo, but our small basket was super stingy (TWO for our table of four adults). Adding insult to injury, they were served cold and never replenished.
As I sit and write this review I get even more angry and upset about this entire dining experience. It was horrible. So bad that I have zero interest in ever setting foot in any Fogo de Chao again. will never, ever go back to this location and I will shout from the rooftops to everyone I see so they won’t spend their money at this disastrous restaurant.

Oh. My. God.
Food? Amazing
Service? Impeccable
Location? Awesome
But what REALLY made this place stand out was the presentation. Everything was presented so beautifully that I felt like I wasn’t in Vegas, I felt as if I was in some foreign locale, being treated to world class fare. Yes, its a buffet, but… Its more than that. Its… I don’t know know how to describe it… Its an experience. Worth the price, worth the drive (I live in Henderson), just worth it. Try it. You won’t regret it. (Loved the Parmesan pork chops)

Came here for a date night! Wonderful service, and the meat was delicious! Although I am a huge sweets person so of course, we order dessert after our meal… I had the chocolate molten cake, and my date had the tres leches cake. Both were to die for!!!

Fogo de Chao has great food and service; the atmosphere is upbeat and elegant. This is definitely the restaurant you want to be dining in when starving. It is seriously very difficult to say no to the many scrumptiously smelling meat selections that are offered by tableside service.
The concept is the same as with other Brazilian steakhouses. There are numerous meat selections of beef, lamb, pork, and chicken. Patrons control the frequency by which meat is served with green and red chips that stand for «yes please!» and «No thanks!» respectively.
There is a great salad bar with a selection of vegetables, cured meats, olives, mushrooms, fresh mozzarella, fresh cut fruits, imported cheeses. Served tableside are scrumptious garlic mashed potatoes, slices of crispy polenta, and caramelized bananas.
My favorite selection of meats were the lamb chops «and the leg of lamb or «Cordeiro» followed by the garlic /​sea salt seasoned sirloin. However, you will be offered filet mignon, top sirloin, bottom sirloin, rib eye, pork ribs, bacon wrapped chicken breast, port sausage, and encrusted parmesan cheese pork loin.
Fogo de Chao offers a full bar service and amazingly scrumptious desserts. From the bar, I enjoyed a Brazilian national cocktail called the Caipirinha. It is made with limes, sugar, and a liquor called cachaca. It was good, but the excessive taste of lime did not blend well with some of the meat choices — like the parmesan cheese pork lion.
I had the molten chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. The chocolate cake has a warm molten chocolate fudge center. This was very good; the ice cream was a rich complement to the chocolate. Although I did not get to try the New York cheesecake, I was told that it was the best cheesecake my friend has ever had. I believe him too because he refused to share even one bite.
I wish Fogo would offer a cold gazpacho at the bar and tableside fried mozzarella, salmon, and grilled shrimp.
I love the male wait staff uniform — the pants are very sexy! Our wait staff included Summer and Matthew. Thank you for a great dining experience.

This is a gem! I usually shy away from restaurants that serve salad bars, but their Market Table is definitely NOT a salad bar, it is an array of fresh vegetables and sides. I am a meat lover so this was a perfect match.
I waited at the bar for my dinner companions, the bartender was friendly and skilled. When seated we were cared for by an attentive staff. It was an overall great experience.
I travel several times a year to Las Vegas and usually stay at Red Rock Casino just across the street. I found this to be a wonderful alternative to the casino experience. Will make this a regular stop when in Vegas.

I came here for lunch recently and was sad that it was not very busy. The food and the service were excellent. Every item that I ate was five stars. The service from each and every individual was 5 stars. It was nice that it wasn’t busy but it needs more customers to be successful

Amazing as Always!!! I love Fogo DE Chão it’s always been a favorite!
Staff is great, very attentio, good ambiance, food of course is soo good!
Love this location in Summerlin!

Fantastic experience and meats and meats and meats!!! Went with a party of 16 for a birthday party and the staff was very attentive and kept bring the neat and explaining everything. Very friendly and engage able staff. Meat is cooked to whatever you want. A bit on the pricey side. It’s not your every weekend place, but for special occasions it is worth it
Call ahead for large groups.

Fogo de Chao has always been my first love (Brazilian Steakhouse). :)
This branch is phenomenal, because the place is well lit. Also, they don’t skimp on my favorite beef rib!
They had new stuff on their menu that pleased my palate, especially the garlic picanha!
Would be a regular at this location!

We dined at the Summerlin Fogo De Chao Brazilian Steakhouse with a group of friends and family. It was a birthday celebration for our twin grandchildren. The dining room design and arrangement is open and bright. Plenty of room between tables. The room was conversation friendly.
Service was friendly and prompt. I would have preferred that the pace of the entrees been slower. Although the red and green sided disk indicates that you request service or pass is explained the wait staff continues at a fast pace like drivers ignoring a red stop light. However, there is no food shortage just ask for your preference or wait for the server to come around.
The variety of protein is plentiful. There are ten differently prepared entrees of beef, pork, lamb, chicken and pork sausages
Several sides are served at the table. Cheese bread, polenta, garlic mashed potatoes and caramelized bananas.
The salad bar has a wide selection of cold items plus a soup of the day however I recommend passing on the salads in favor of the great meat and poultry. The soup of the day was Butternut Squash which was flavorful but I would have preferred a thicker broth.
All of the roasted entrees were well prepared and the degree of cooking was available for all.
Deserts were not attempted as there was no room available.

Two Words: Fogo-​de WOW!
I used to live in LA and I would go to Fogo de Chao in Beverly Hills every now and then. I love their atmosphere — this is a perfect place for a large gathering or a date as it is very upscale.
The salad bar is very fresh and has a wide variety. I always get the roasted peppers, asparagus, and mushrooms. There are other quality ingredients. If you’re not hungry, just go to the salad bar and veg out.
They bring in some side dishes of garlic mashed potatoes, crispy polenta and the brazillian banana.
I tried all the meats that they had and my favorite meat selection: Lamb shank and bottom flank. They even had bacon wrapped chicken.
The service was impeccable and the staff appeared knowledgeable.
I will definitely dine here again!
Notes:
–Double-​sided Card: Flip Green for meat servers to serve you meat. Flip Red for service to stop.

The salad bar is impressive and the food is top rate. The atmosphere is bare and leaves little to the imagination.
The pricing is a bit on the high side, but imagine a buffet that comes to you versus the other way around. The service was OK, but the servers seemed rushed and if you did not speak up fast enough, they were on to the next customer.
Went with a large group and it was fun. Not a place a would go for a romantic dinner and you better be hungry and enjoy meat. It is what it is and not ashamed of it.

Food: The food is great, you get to try different steaks and can request different steaks if needed. The side dishes are good, although the rice was bit dry. Caipirinhas the typical brazilian steak was really good. They also have a ton of other choices as well from prime rib, roast beef, t bone steak, Leg of lamb was really good because the gamy taste was none existent.
Service: The service was excellent. The Gauchos were attentive to the guest, the drinks were filled all the time.
Ambiance: Upscale summerlin location great for dates, and the drinks that were prepared were good.
Overall: Definitely will come back for the food and service. So far no complaints on my end. I do caution whoever wants to try this place out SHOULD COME HUNGRY, that way you get to try ALL the cuts of meat.

I came here for a friends birthday and was anxious to see how this dining experience would be.
Overall the experience was just ok. The food was good but the service is definitely lacking. It may be because they just opened but I do hope it gets better.
I will speak about the food first.
The salad bar was pretty good but I didn’t want to get filled up on that so I only went up once. The meat was really good. I have to say I enjoyed the lamb chops the most. I could have had that the whole meal and been pretty satisfied.
As I noted previously the service could have been better.
As you may or may not know to be served at Fogo you are given a chip. You turn it up facing green to be served and turned down facing red to not be served. The people serving seemed to do a good job coming around at the beginning of our meal but towards the end even if people at our table had the green chip turned up they wouldn’t come around to serve us.
Our waiter also disappeared half way through our meal and never came back. Usually when servers leave for the night they announce this to the table and let the table know who the replacement server was but this never happened. This made it very confusing towards the end of the meal.
When we first arrived we told the hostess that we were there for a birthday and thought this would be conveyed to the waiter so he could assist us with a birthday dessert. This did not happen so in the mist of wondering where our waiter was and waiting on dessert we were left in limbo. When we asked another server when we would be asked about dessert we were given the response that they were waiting for us to tell them what we wanted for dessert. Since we were never given a dessert menu this would have been hard to do. At this time we conveyed again that it was a birthday and they final brought over a birthday tres de leche cake.
This cake was very good I must say.
I’m not sure if it was because we were there towards the end of the night (we left at 9pm an hour before close) or if it is because this newly opened but I feel the service should have been better. I don’t think I’d come back again and if I did I would wait a little while for the service to improve.

Celebrated a birthday dinner here one night. The concept is great. All you can eat meats and a huge variety of meats at that. They have a salad bar area as well that has a variety of cheeses, salads and other sides.
Love the fact that there are so many different types of meats cooked multiple ways. It’s always a fun dinner when you are a Lil unsure what you will be eating. Their house special was amongst the favorites at our table along with the lamb chops. A definite must try.
Though the food was pretty great, the service on the other hand was quite questionable. We started with one server but somewhere in the middle of the dinner we realized we had a new one (we assumed). The original server was nowhere to be seen but another couple servers kept checking on us. There was no handoff, introduction or update just a simple disappearance. We were sat in the middle back area so we did feel we were skipped or missed quite a bit when the meats were being walked around. There were a few occasions when we had to ask for them to come to our table or ask for certain meats to be brought to us. At one point a couple people were quite irritated since they couldn’t get food. In the end, you would just think that when you spend that much money on a nice dinner, much more a celebration, the service would be better.

A must– first time here and I absolutely plan on returning–
As a huge red meat eater I’ve been eating nonstop for an hour–
Staff is amazing — choices are amazing–
I have to compliment the staff again they’ve been superb

I don’t know where all these good reviews are coming from but this place is horrible. Cheese bread cold 3 times in a row and no taste! person I was with didn’t know it was even it was cheese bread. Salad bar not up to par. Fried polenta dry!!! Tabouli no taste. etc, etc do yourself a favor and don’t waste your time. If you want good Brazilian go to TBD!
One star was for the service which was good!

Absolutely amazing! Visited Fogo in two separate occasions within the past two weeks and I’ve been completely blown away by their meat selection, huge fresh salad bar and their fantastic service. Other Brazilian steakhouses in town are good, but this place is awesome.

I feel like Jim Carrey’s character from the movie «Yes Man» whenever I am at a churrascaria… totally incapable of saying no to anything!
Caipirinhas? Yes, and please keep them coming.
Bottom sirloin? Heck yes! I’ll take 3 slices.
Lamb chops? OH FUCK YES! Leave the whole freakin thing on the table!!!
No…control…whatsoever. If a shady looking dude wearing a hat and a musty overcoat offered candy corn straight from the palm of his slightly dirty hand, I would say yes and assume it was a limited time promotion.
Fogo de Chao vs Texas de Brazil: It’s a high scoring draw. Sure, there a few items the other one doesn’t have, and certain meats may be slightly better at one over the other, but everyone ends up a winner in this fight no matter which you choose.

This review may be a little inside baseball for some of you but I hate you anyway. This review will be only comparing this Fogo to other Fogos because if you don’t already know that Fogo is awesome at this stage in your life you are a lost cause.
1. Service– our main waiter was a little clueless (he was white not Brazilian and had no idea how to pronounce anything, rookie mistake) but the Gauchos were very good. The 2^nd meat to come around was Picanha but all the outside pieces had been taken. I told him I would wait, and he winked at me knowingly. From then on he brought EVERY Picanha over to our table first so I could have an outside piece. This kind of watering is worthy of a Nobel Prize. Overall the meat flowed continuously, drinks were refilled (although the water is garbage, def spring for bottled/​sparkling as Summerlin water is borderline Waco water) and sides were brought out continuously.
2. Food– Most things measured up pretty good, here are the things that didn’t quite meet top of the line fogo standards
Pao de queijo –these are the cheesy poofs. They were very thick and dense, not large and airy which is how i prefer them– they clearly need to work this out as whoever is making them is out of it
Bottom Sirloin– this was a little light on salt for my tastes. The whole point of this meet is salt
Beef Rib– I didn’t see anyone else ask for this, and they don’t bring it out unless you ask. As a result I think it had been sitting in there a while too long and was therefore kind of dry
Picanha– pretty good, but some pieces the fat was still very white/​not cooked
Limeade– not quite nailing these. Don’t get me wrong, still quite good, but they are not as creamy/​frothy as a well established fogo, and some of them had very little lime taste (I say some as I drank like 40 of these)
They also didn’t seem to have Filet, or non garlic ribeye– but it was lunch so who knows
Overall: This is better than the strip fogo for sure, not quite as good as the best fogos I have ever been to, but its 2 miles from my house so I will prob be eating there every other day.

Fogo de chao regardless of the location is always deserving of 5 stars. I’ve been to the locations in NYC, LA and here in the fabulous Las Vegas.
However, this location is exciting since it’s much closer to us. Even more exciting it has a patio seating area! I mean I’m still iffy on the thought of enjoying an exquisite meal on the patio but hey if the mood is right and weather is real nice you might just find me there.
This is a Brazilian steakhouse (look it up) so come ready to devour perfected, various types of beef, lamb, chicken, and sausage and more. The salad bar is filled with unlimited amounts of heavenly calorie filled «salads». Forget I mentioned calories because at fogo no ones counting besides your scale the next day.
A couple friends and I decided to have a casual dinner (yes we have casual dinners at Fogo). We’re regulars at the flamingo location! I think we’ll remain regulars at that location. The consistency there is impeccable and honestly it’s worth the extra drive. If you’re not a casual $$$$ dinner type then I highly recommended you check out Fogo for a special dinner. The flamingo location is more intimate. I was disappointed in the lightening at Summerlin. I like my dim lighting seating arrangement. Personal preference and personal mood will depict this for anyone. The lights were too bright and the salad bar was smaller at this new location. In addition, each table had a plastic number card? Come on now that is so tacky.
I would like to note that they were very attentive to our table hence we were 1 of 4 tables there. Also, we got there an hour before they closed. Specifically, we enjoy the lamb and we had to wait a few minutes for them to prepare it. Oh and if you’re a lamb lover than don’t you dare forget to order the hot sauce, jelly and chimichurri! It’ll server you right and while you’re add it finish your dinner with an order of crème brûlée! Just do it and when your pants don’t fit tomorrow; just remind yourself of the mouth watering dinner you enjoyed yourself. Overall, it’s priceless!
(I hope my dry humor gave this review some sizzle)

i was lucky enough to be invited to the soft opening at FOGO!
throughout my whole experience, we received the greatest service from the FOGO staff. morgan recommended the best meats and knew her pairings with the sauces. my favorite was the chimichurri and the hot sauce. the meats were non stop and everything was delicious. i loved their PICANHA steak and couldn’t stop eating it. it was seasoned so well and i love how it was thinly sliced with a bit of fat on the side. i couldn’t stop asking for more. my card was always on the GREEN GO side.
the market table provided a variety of veggies, cheeses, deli meats, salmon, rice, and many more! i like how you can keep going back for more. the server was saying that fogo is an all you can experience. my favorite was the fresh mozzarella cheese, quinoa kale salad, prosciutto, and baby corn. the brazilian cheese bread was the BEST part of them all. i couldn’t stop eating them! very addicting. fogo also provides caramelized bananas to help cleanse your tasting palette. i thought it was very accommodating and a good idea.
the service is top notch at fogo. my party and i felt so welcomed by the friendly staff. our drinks were constantly refilled and our plates were always changed. the staff also had this tool to clean the crumbs off the table and thought it was great! the restaurant is super clean and very modernized. i would definitely recommend this restaurant for a date night or a special occasion. i can’t wait to come back for more!
