What a disappointment… this is my second time here and should have learned after the first disappointing visit … service was exceptionally slow and off. Waited for my party to arrive at bar … bartenders lacked personality. One of the bartenders was arguing with the woman seated next to me. My party arrived and we were promptly seated. We had to repeatedly ask the waiter to bring drinks / side dishes … that were previously ordered. Took several asks before items were brought out. Appetizers were brought out after we were halfway done with our dinner. We asked to speak with a manager to voice our issues but he (Hernan) seemed disinterested in addressing the problems. There are 13 different cuts of meats that are supposed to be offered … we only had about 9 of them and had to ask for the others but never presented. Meat was bland, no taste. Both times we were large parties.,. Spent several thousand dollars on each visit as we ordered seafood towers and magnums of wine. First visit there were 16 of us and tonight there were 10 of us … not given this place another visit. Lots of great restaurants in the area with good food and superb service to spend my money at.

First time at Fogo de Chao and it was such a great experience. The service and food was fantastic! My steak was so delicious and Nelson just kept it coming! Julia the waitress was also very sweet. I will definitely be back again soon! A must try for everyone.

I would like to start by saying this is not my first time at Fogo de Chão. I've been to many locations including the original in Addison, Texas and I love this Brazilian chain. When I heard that they would be opening a new location in Fort Lauderdale I was excited to visit for my birthday. Although I've been to multiple locations I will say this one is very special. The service is beyond 5 stars! We met so many managers including Omar and different servers (our main server was Josh and he was AWESOME) that stopped by to check on us and let us know about the history of the restaurant. They accommodated special requests with no issue. I can confidently say this is the best Fogo location I've been to.

With all that has happened to the food industry the past couple of years I can honestly say Fogo on Las Olas has done a great job with choosing a staff that cares about the customers. From the waitresses, waiters, food runners and everyone in between to the management. They are Top knotch. The food is excellent, served with some great sides from the kitchen. such as mashed potatoes, cheese bread, the plantains are a sweet treat and the salad bar is has some great items. Say no more about the deserts just check out the picture and i can say it tastes just as good as it looks. The atmosphere and decor are very nice also. To not go and check it out would be a big mistake. Easy 5 stars for this place

Delicious! Wonderful place to dine. For dinner There are two types of the Churrasco experience - one is an unlimited variety of meats, chicken, sausage plus the salad bar/sides for $63 OR one choice of meat,chicken, fish plus salad bar/sides for $35-$47 depending on which you choose. These are dinner prices. There is brunch, lunch, and an all-day happy hour at lesser prices. The menu is online, in which you scan a barcode to access. For starters, your table is served a basket of warm Pao de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) yum :) Sign up for the rewards program and receive a free dessert plus a birthday dessert. Parking garage is in the back side of the building next to Publix parking garage. Bring your parking ticket to get validated. Staff is friendly and helpful.

This was our second time here and we don’t plan to return. The food was okay but the service was disorganized and slow. Our table had dirty napkins left underneath it from the group before us. I have edited this review after a phone call from Omar the customer service representative. We had a wonderful conversation and he made us feel that they really care about their customers. We understand as business owners ourselves that we all have bad days and the best we can do is learn and do better, I believe that this is the case in this situation. We will be going back for another try hoping it will be as good as our first time there.

Our son put together a birthday party for his wife, total 12 people. Each couple had their own check which was not a problem for our server. Service was very attentive and helpful. Food was great from all the meats brought to our table and sliced to the great selection at the food bar. We all enjoyed the cool modern atmosphere and cocktail and wine. I recommend.

We LOVE Fogo! My husband and I celebrated our 5th anniversary here & it was his first fogo experience— of course, it did not disappoint! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Our server Josh was great; and the manager Omar was fantastic! Both did such a great job ensuring we had a an incredible experience. We had great cocktails, wine, and enjoyed the Churrasco experience. Our favorite meat cuts were the picanha, and the lamb chops & leg of lamb. A fun added bonus was that it’s happy hour - all day, everyday! Thank you for such a great night 🫶🏻

Went there for Thanksgiving....unfortunately, we had to wait 1 HOUR after our scheduled reservation time. This was extremely disappointing. I am still giving them a 5 Star because I am hoping that will not be the case on my next visit. The staff were extremely friendly. The food was fresh and constant. The salad bar was plentiful. The ambiance was very warm and inviting. Would highly recommend (but not for Thanksgiving)

Went to Fort Laudardale, New location for the Happy Hour and the service was Great! We are a BIG FAN of this Brazilian Restaurant and had visited the PR location were we are from and best view ever, Coral Gables, Orlando, New Orleans and now Fort Laudardale. CHRISTINE at the BAR was the best, GOT PAO DE QUEISO, wine and our ordered appetizers in time. Thumbs up! The restaurant is beautiful.

Amazing restaurant! Excellent food and extraordinary service. Nelson is wonderful guy (o melhor Gaúcho) super attentive and served us very well. The Fogo de Chão really represents the excellent service of Brazilian steakhouses.

I have been here a few times with my co-workers for lunch. It's one of those fancy (and expensive) places in Las Olas, but since the company is buying, I gladly went with the group. They offer different options for lunch. One of them, which was obviously everyone's favorite, is all-you-can-eat meat and salad. It allows you to get continuous tableside service of their signature cuts of meat right off their grill. And of course, the salad bar. As for the meat, there are just so many different varieties. From my personal favorite filet mignon to rib eyes, lamp chops, and more. You have to read the menu to go through over a dozen different kinds of cuts. And their salad bar was just as good. You will find different kinds of fresh salads, vegetables, and more. I could have just ordered the salad-only, got my money's worth, and been totally satisfied. This place is not cheap, but if you are not worrying about the bill, it's definitely a place to try!

Great experience. My bf and I went at lunch and it was great. We had lots of different cuts of meat which were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing. We were waiting for a dish in particular and I think the bartender noticed this and came up to ask what we were waiting for and then a waiter came 5 minutes later with that exact dish cooked specially for us, really made the experience that much better. The salad bar was pretty good, my bf enjoyed it much more than I did, and had almost everything there and said he didn’t not like any of it. 10/10 recommend

Priscilla and Marcos at the Fort Lauderdale location were absolutely amazing. The service is exceptional bar none. Highly recommend this restaurant if you are in the area, you won't be disappointed @vanessa.andrea.beauty IG

Amazing experience, our server Francisco went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience. Our favorite carver was Nelson, he stayed on top of everything that we requested and brought the meats out fresh off the grill. Good people! Highly recommend, great service and very friendly restaurant staff.

Excellent service from start to finish. Parking garage conveniently located in building. Food and cocktails were fantastic. They can use a little less salt on meats but still very good! Will return, 10/10 recommend!

Nelson was absolutely gratifying and special to my partner and I’s anniversary. He was so sweet and helped us choose the best food and dessert for us! He told us a little of his family from Bahia and it made our experience feel so connected with him. Thank you Nelson! We can’t wait to come back!!!

It is always the most incredible experience at the Las Olas Fogo de Chao. We had the pleasure of having Francisco and Nelson for the night and they are always so sweet and help us with anything we need! We are regulars at this restaurant because not only is the food amazing, but the staff is as well. Highly recommend 10/10 Lily was our server and she was amazing and made sure we had everything we need! Must eat at restaurant!

This place is amazing. The drinks are great. The meat is great and the service is outstanding. Nelson is very attentive to our meat selections. The cheese with the honey is awesome. Try it.

Nelson was one of the best servers I have ever had. His energy is contagious, his professionalism should be the standard in the restaurant industry, and he has the personality to make your restaurant experience exceed your expectations. The food was delicious, the atmosphere welcoming but Nelson took the experience to a whole new level and truly made our evening spectacular.

This place was awesome! Came in with my very demanding mom for lunch and Clara and Nelson were so nice, professional, and delightful. Food was delicious and pretty affordable; can’t wait to go back! Thank you!

My wife and I came to celebrate our 5 year anniversary. It was our first time at Fogo de Chão and we had an amazing experience. The food was amazing, the atmosphere very pleasant and the service impeccable! Nelson really made a difference with his service, ask for him and you won’t regret the experience.

Was a great dining facility Regina and Nelson was phenomenally awesome. Made everything very comfortable and refreshing. The food was great, service was fantastic and the crew was well managed and took care of everything. This is definitely a goto for traveling. Never had better service anywhere else. Thank you Mr. Nelson as well as a big shout out and thank you to the server Mrs. Regina absolutely amazing! 10/10 would recommend. Samuel was fantastic as well, always checked in to make sure everything was to our liking ! I genuinely did not want to leave !

Took my two boys here for our last night of vacation. Everything was superb and I can’t say enough how much fun we had. Huge shout out to Nelson who had my boys cracking up, his personality and service are second to none. Can’t recommend this place highly enough and hopefully you get to meet Nelson as well!

Came for lunch on a Friday afternoon. Our service was impeccable. Clara and Nelson were attentive and made our experience enjoyable and relaxing. Not to mention the great smiles and positive energy from them both! Will be back next time in town.

This fort lauderdale location is very nice, food was amazing, service was on point. Our waiter was Lucas, treated us very kind and was amazing service. On the other hand my man Nelson kept bringing us meat asking which term ww desired. Over all perfect location, will come back for sure.

Listen here, you want quality food and quality service? Come here! Omar & Joel took care of us fr! They made sure all food was prepared properly. They made sure drinks were topped off and were super attentive and helped us with everything we needed. Highly recommend this location.

I’ve been to this restaurant before but first time at the Las Olas location. Very nice, clean and attentive staff. The meat was great, it did take a little long for them to bring out the beef rib, but that’s ok, I asked for it and it was brought to me immediately. All the staff was friendly and I had an overall great experience. Nelson was one of the meat servers and he always asked if he could bring us a specific cut of meat. I will be coming here again for sure. Only complain, that you shouldn’t have to pay for parking at the garage, at the other location, if you show a receipt, the parking is free.

This place was just amazing! I was looking for a place to take my mother for her birthday and the staff out did themselves. Georgia and Omar treated us like Royalty. Now let me talk about the food. Omg! The salad bar was exquisite! I could just come here for the salad bar. They have it all and the meats are superb. I only wish that I could continue eating all night! overall, Great place, amazing ambiance and fabulous staff. Thank you for the amazing service. Highly recommended.

Went on January 13, had a reservation for 9 45 pm. Food was very good, but after more than an hour waiting for sides and more drinks the waiter told us that there is NO more sides and drinks after 10 30 pm. Incredible on a Friday night. You should tell customers before booking a reservation after 9 30 pm. The manager was polite but was to late he kindly made a discount.

Went in for a celebratory meal. I made reservations via Google and it was easy enough. Our attendant was great and took the time to explain the process. They were great and attentive to our needs. Food was well seasoned and you can still have a very enjoyable meal if all you did was their salad bar. You can even enjoy a great vegetarian meal at an all-you-can-eat meat joint. If you do the full experience and a couple cocktails each and dessert, plan for $100 per person. The dining room was very comfortable and the valet cheaper than regular garage rates for 2 hours. We had time to relax and enjoy, no rush, and while the coins can be flipped yes or no, if a gaucho is nearby and you are still eating, they will stop at your table. Very lovely experience.

Went to FdC happy hour and Omar was amazing at the bar! Super friendly, very engaging! Eric was our other bartender and super nice and very personable! Definitely recommend the Happy Hour bar here. Can’t wait to come back! Sit at the bar! Lol

We came for our corporate annual holiday dinner and everyone had a great time and meal. The ambient, food, service was spectacular. We will definitely be back. The sweetest part of our experience was the açaí cheesecake and crème brûlée. I definitely recommend this restaurant!

My wife and I have been going to Fogo de Chao [which has restaurants everywhere] but we have been going to Miami for decades, we did not initially go to the Fogo in Fort Lauderdale because of Covid and my health situation. They are open from 11 o’clock till late at night so you can begin at lunch and go to dinner or any time in between. They are conveniently located near the West end of La Olas Boulevard along the north side of the river surrounded by ample parking. We were thrilled that we finally got a chance to go to the Fort Lauderdale Fogo de Chao since we live in east Broward County. Fogo day Chao offers the greatest selection of beef, chicken and lamb accompanied by a giant salad with incredible assortments from South America and other countries. There are so many items on the vegetable buffet that it is impossible to describe them all, my favorite is the eggplant. All the meat is tender and selected to how you prefer your meat cooked with a wonderful garlic flavor. It seems the one in Miami has a more flavorful garlic touch, but we have not been there for 3 years. The meat, chicken and lamb are superb. The lamb comes from New Zealand, and it is the best lamb I have ever had, and I have grown up with lamb and am most familiar with lamb and beef. My wife preferred the filet mignon which was tender and cooked the way you want; other assortments of meat come out on skewers, and you can keep trying everything or select one item over and over. They keep coming out until you turn the card over from green to red. superb selection of desserts.

Lunch special for the bar is $15. A great selection. You can add a meat for $12-$15. I had the Lamb. It was delicious... great customer service , great food, nice atmosphere .. if I'm even back in fort lauderdale, I will definitely visit again...

What wonderful food! Spectacular place and super polite and attentive staff! Donato and Reese were wonderful in their service! I really recommend Fogo de Chão!

Me and my wife came here for our 7year anniversary and it was absolutely fantastic the staff where all attentive and they made us feel right at home food was fresh and tasted just the way it smelled delicious. I have to give a shout out to Brian, Douglas, and Alex they kept a smile on our face and even went the extra mile to make sure this was an anniversary to remember definitely recommended this location to anyone who want to enjoy a very positive vibe wile you enjoy your amazing meal.

Another great Ft Lauderdale location to get your meat on. Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse is a wonderful place do indulge. The staff is knowledgable, out of their way helpful and friendly. The food is as you would expect, delicious. Treat yourself.
