For many, the first thought when it comes to Brazilian food is endless meat served on swords. Churrasco, or grilled meat, is a legit Brazilian food and you can eat plenty of it at Fogo de Chao. Read more

Meat lovers, if you can't make it down to Newark's Ironbound, come here. This is the best rodizio in NYC. If you arrive early, sit by the bar upstairs and enjoy a drink.

The place is very nice, I loved the design. I’m vegetarian so I took only the salad bar and it was very plenty, the food was very good. We spent there the new year’s eve and was so real fine.

Perfect service! From the moment you walk in the door you are attended to. The food is always delicious and the staff is great. If you order a cocktail get the caipirinha! It's good and strong.

For “Restaurant Week“ some meats are taken out of the rotation – the ribeye, filet, and lamb shank. All the meats we tried were excellent. The service is top notch. Try the feijoada at the salad bar.

Pretty spectacular food. Take some special here and bet on who can eat the most meat. Don't let them fill up on the cheese bread... That's how they get you.

Went here for restaurant week. The sirloin cuts are tasty, as is the chicken, but coming from Ireland I wasn't overly impressed with the lamb. Service is excellent and salad bar extensive. I liked it.

For a fixed price, diners have access to a quality salad bar, a variety of sides, and an (hypothetically) unlimited amount of cut-to-order meats, including top sirloin, filet mignon, lamb, and pork.

The appetizers are amazing. My favorites were the fried banana and bread. Salad bar has a ton of stuff, but maybe skip it cause you're here for the unlimited meats. Don't miss the house special meat.

If you are meatarian and enjoy great customer service then you need to get the Fogo De Chao experience. Your eyes will roll back and stomach will smile. Just go and thank me afterwards.
Maria LopezJuly 11, 2016
The appetizers were amazing but better if you skip it, you need to try all the meats so don't full yourself with these. just take some tomato to eat after each meat. At the end, pineapple&cinnamon!

Delicious cheese breads, wonderful meats and caparinhas. The ginger mango martini was ok while the hibiscus drink was bad. Come with an empty stomach !

This place really season their meats. The experience is worth it and food was delicious. I was very happy to have discovered this place for a lil while we were able to do indoor dinners. COVID sucks

If you have been to any Brazilian style steakhouse, it is one of them except they have salad bar only option, apparently. This place is beautiful if decor is important to you.

Brought my very carnivorous boyfriend for a birthday dinner and he loved it. The servers just keep coming around with all the different cuts of meat so pace yourself!! Bread = melt in your mouth.
Wejdan ✨April 1, 2016
Medium well all the way. The cheese bread is the best!! They will refill the basket if you ask. Amazing service.

Good meat and buffet. Also tried the chocolate bomb and one of the cocktails and they were good and SWEET. Very filling, feels like good value for money. Staff are very attentive.
Gabriela RuddyMay 22, 2017
The pao de queijo wanst at it's best form and they were missing some classics from brazilians barbecues, but it's a great place if you want to know whats brazilian food like
Alex BorodachSeptember 6, 2014
It's simply an Eden for meat-eaters. Nice concept, friendly staff, very good salad bar, and of course unique way to try different steaks at once at a fixed price.
Leslie TengDecember 19, 2015
All. The. Steak. Come hungry, take your time to eat. The chicken was an unexpected hit -- tender, spicy, juicy. The salad bar isn't even a salad bar; to call it that would be a vast understatement.
Jessica CorvetteAugust 7, 2014
Meat galore! They have a beautiful salad bar to compliment all the hearty meat. Cocktails are also on point.
Steinar BjeMarch 23, 2015
It's been 10 years. So far only in Brazil but let's try the New York location :-) Best meats I will ever ever have!#churrasco #churrascaria #WOW #behereNOW
Lou CarulliMarch 21, 2018
One of my fav restaurants! You can’t go wrong with a parade of meat to your table!
Nadia IssaBellaNovember 3, 2015
Amazing selection of meats but save some room for the delicious sides.. That may just save you from a case of the meat sweats!
KarenSeptember 10, 2017
Unlimited meats. Great salad bar. The key lime pie dessert is very refreshing for the palate after eating rich meats.
Pepe T⛄September 26, 2017
Everything was perfect!! I cannot describe how friendly the staff was!! Great meat and salad bar!! I definitely recommend it!!
Nergis BuyukkinaciJuly 3, 2016
Compared to other Brazilian food chains, FdC is very good. Gaucho steak was off the chain, mojito and fried banana were outstanding👍
Elie HirschfeldJanuary 25, 2017
Just went here the other day and got the fried polenta. It was absolutely fantastic! Highly recommend trying this place.
Paris GorhamNovember 23, 2017
Great Thanksgiving meal! The meats were amazing as well as the assortment of deserts!!
Celena ChanSeptember 18, 2015
SO much food. The strategy: pace yourself, take small pieces of what you're interested in and find what you like. They will come back again with the good stuff. Start small at the salad bar.
Daniel BarnettJanuary 4, 2015
They want to go the salad bar. My strategy, keep your plate on the dinner with the paper thingy on green and enjoy the 17 varieties of delicious meats.

#Great value during restaurant week. Very good service and good. LOVE the bread!
Philipp NassMarch 18, 2018
Loved it! We came here for the full churrasco experience for lunch.
Randall NovalSeptember 16, 2016
One of the best rodízio (all-you-can-eat) style churrascaria's (BBQ) joints in the city!
Justin EntrupMarch 28, 2014
Come hungry... Leave in the biggest food coma. Don't fill up on the salad bar!
Liz GAugust 7, 2014
The meat and appetizers here were subpar compared to others churrascharia's I've been to. The service could have also been better. Drinks however were delicious but a tad bit expensive.
Catherine AndreJanuary 2, 2018
Very good churrasqueria, do not eat before going to maximize the all you can eat buffet and meat
Equis ZetaJuly 24, 2015
The lamb, asparagus and R collection wine blend were divine. Ask for Adam. He makes a phenomenal caipirinha
Julie SosciaJanuary 29, 2019
An authentic Brazilian steakhouse if you have a big appetite. I mean, it doesn't get better than Rodizio!
Amanda YAugust 7, 2014
Great meats so don't expect much for dessert or coffee.
Michael Steven WilliamsFebruary 25, 2015
One of the nicest Fogo's I've ever been too. Caipirinhas are wild strong too!
Vicente AguilarMarch 29, 2014
Great Food And incredible space and distribution.
Beyza ErhanAugust 23, 2023
Picanha is great, ambiance is good. Very friendly staff. Needs reservation

A nice Brazilian steakhouse if you have a big appetite. This is a chain, produces good options.

Sexy ambience. Pretty empty during lunchtime. Be prepared to eat tons of food!
Katya PugachevaOctober 24, 2016
Why oh why did I eat so much?! Well, it's totally worth feeling like Vinnie the Pooh whose obsession is not honey but roasted meat. Go for picahna, forego chicken and most of pork.
Alfred M.February 26, 2016
don't eat the bread or get too much starch at the salad bar. find the garlic beef and get extra!
Me EverywhereSeptember 11, 2016
Very tasty food! Meatlovers gonna love this place. However, it costs expensively!
Gilbert WongAugust 7, 2018
Wait for those ribs, they don’t come often; the filet mignon is good too!
