Chicago magazineApril 16, 2012Garlic mashed potatoes and warm cheese bread make way for a $49.50 all-you-can-eat avalanche of tender, well-seasoned meat. Focus on the bottom sirloin, pork ribs, and filet mignon. Read more
Srecko SojicDecember 2, 2014My favorite steakhouse in Chicago,always like to take my friends there.Meats are delicious & perfectly seasoned,fresh salad selection is great.You get what you pay for,and the service is spectacular.
Amber HutsonNovember 26, 2013The best way to describe this place's chaotic nature is the Tea Party in Wonderland. Overwhelming and confusing at first, but you get the hang of it. The best steaks I've ever had!
Mr. IbeabuchiApril 1The customer service was excellent and the food was great especially the lamb chops just hate that they cut small portions but that’s what restaurants do so I really can’t complain.
Autumn ChoiNovember 1, 2019Great service every time makes it a fun experience. Good selection of market bar and meat- wish cocktails or wine were cheaper
Alberto QuirozSeptember 28, 2014Amazing place! The phrase "all you can eat" realizes here. Picanha is one of the best options.
Lou CarulliMay 1, 2015Always a fan of Fogo and the Chicago location did not disappoint! I think it was the best service i received at any Fogo I've been too
Phillip ShillingNovember 27, 2011I starved myself all day and couldn't manage a huge amount of food. Food is tremendous, the meat is seasoned perfectly and the salad bar is fantastic! The salad bar is a meal in itself!
CAugust 21, 2015Try their signature drink & taste the lamb it's delicious! If the meats get too salty for you balance it out with some pineapple at the salad bar.
SauloAugust 7, 2012In BraSil we start drinking caipirinhas at least 30 min before eating, it will raise your appetite to skyscraper's top level allowing you to eat more than you can imagine
GabbyNovember 23, 2010Amaaaazing everything! Love love love the lamb. Best meat I've had anywhere. Make sure you come with an empty stomach and some Pepto for afterward because you will be aching from how much you eat!
César IzaguirreMay 14, 2013The food is delicious and they have a nice bar where you can wait until they give you a table. On week ends is usually full.
Amazing caips and amazing service. Weekly caips,try them out!!!
- Kate GreenJuly 25, 2015Amazing meat selection and salad bar. There's something here for everyone. The desserts are great, too.
Robin Taylor RothNovember 3, 2018As a steakhouse, Fogo de Chão should have at least one steak item on the à la carte menu, for those of us with smaller appetites.- Delicious salads, bottom sirloin is amazing, try it with some of their chilies, fantastic.
Precious adugbaOctober 4, 2015Its a pricey restaurant but definitely worth the money highly recommend this place for birthday dinners :)
NeoJanuary 27, 2015Best meat I had for years. Great Experience , polite and helpful service. MUST visit
- Try the bottom sirloin and don't forget about the amazing caipirinha, so good!
Erin O'NeillMay 12, 2010Fogo de Chao is the best Brazilian Steakhouse in Chicago! Make sure to enjoy the traditional drink of Brazil and order a caprihina or order a bottle if wine from our award winning wine list
BigTab R.N.February 5, 2012The garlic mashed potatoes are everything. Service rocks. You're going to need to be lifted out of the restaurant w/ a crane at the end of the night :)
Mike HuertaMay 9, 2012Don't fill up in the salad even though it's awesome the real deal is the 15 different meat to choose from green mean go red means stop ..
Hasan AbuzayedFebruary 17, 2018Walk in and try that's all I have to say, food is so delicious here ❤️
AndrewJuly 6, 2013Best place in Chicago...cannot come to this city and miss this meat lovers experience!!- Patricio RodriguezNovember 11, 2016Try the bottom sirloin with the chilies, its amazing as it the service and drinks.
Agent MJanuary 18, 2014Weird tip: basil salad dressing on everything. Fill a plate and take it to your table. TRUST ME.
Brian WenteNovember 20, 2010Best Brazilian Steakhouse in Chicago by far. Great selection of meats. Come hungry and if possible leave room for dessert!
@JaymesSongAugust 27, 2011Green light. This place is great -- My 3 rules -- Eat meat like a T-Rex, skip the salad bar and don't forget the Lipitor.
Aneta AllenOctober 18, 2011Expensive but eating the variety of meats and their sides with a mojito was about the best dinner I've had in forever.
Love coming here because the service is just as outstanding as the food!
ISC ChicagoDecember 26, 2014Really salty, but I hear from people from Brazil it's the best in the city
- L KApril 18, 2015Good salad bar, but don't fill up on it! Use it to break up the absurd amounts of meat.
Xavier RameyNovember 3, 2010GET THE LAMB CHOPS! Get the lamb anything! Also, their lunch menu is MUCH cheaper, if you dont mind stopping by outside of dinner hours.
Emily ParkAugust 25, 2010Good food! You get a card (red on one side, green on the other). Flip to green if you want more meet & flip to red when you're done.
Ashley YarbroughFebruary 15, 2012Everything is absouletly delicious don't be afraid to try everything they offer you !
Ben NelsonDecember 30, 2010Although the salad bar is amazing, save room for the meat then come back for more salad at the end!

"One of the best Brazilian restaurants you can find around here, and relatively cheap. As a Brazilian living in US and missing my home country food I can say: tastes like home!"
