    Terrible experience. The service is slow and inefficient (we were seating for 35 minutes when meat start getting to our table). We paid more for the full experience, and only when we asked for we got the special cuts that are included in it - and this was after 50 minutes of seating in the restaurant. But the worst part is the disappointingly poor quality of the meat. Besides the picanha, which was good, the meats were of poor quality. The buffet is ok but does not justify the price. The sensation was that the restaurant did everything they could do avoid you from eating real meat - even though it is a churrasco restaurant. As a Brazilian (from Porto Alegre, the city where Fogo de Chao originated) it was an extremely frustrating experience. We paid over 200 dollars for terrible food and poor service. Also, it took them about 30 minutes (literally) to take care of our check - they first brought it with some mistakes, and then brought us again with another mistake, taking almost 10 minutes between each run. Won’t be back, and don’t recommend. A real trap, and a disservice to the amazing brazilian food’s reputation.

    Our Experience at FDC was very nice. We did the FULL CHURRASCO and the meats were well prepared and delicious. The salad bar was delicious also, but not as extensive as I previously remember. We were seated in a nice quieter area, which I request on my Open Table account. We were celebrating our friend’s Birthday, which I noted on my Open Table reservation, and had expected a complimentary dessert at the end, but our waiter made no mention or indication of it at all. Anyway, overall a good experience though.

    The place was packed. Less meat going around that we were not able to enjoy what we came there for. We just tried to fill ourselves with the salads. We did not get the value of what we paid for.
