Fogo De Chão Brazilian Steakhouse

An amazing experience. The meat just kept on coming, hot and sizzling! Everything was delicious! Everyone was friendly and warm. Wendy and Kelsey was very helpful and attentive. I had a wonderful and warming birthday celebration. The chocolate molten lava cake was the cherry on top!

My experience at Fogo de Chão - Chicago was absolutely exceptional from beginning to end. The atmosphere was upscale yet welcoming, making it perfect for a special occasion or even an elevated lunch in the city. The quality of the food was outstanding. Every cut of meat was perfectly seasoned, tender, and cooked to perfection. The continuous tableside service truly elevates the dining experience, and the Market Table offered a fresh and beautifully presented selection that complemented the churrasco perfectly. What truly made our lunch unforgettable was our server, Valmor. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and incredibly professional. Valmor made us feel genuinely welcomed, ensured everything was flawless throughout our meal, and took the time to explain the different cuts and recommendations. His warmth and attention to detail turned a great lunch into an extraordinary experience. If you’re looking for an authentic Brazilian steakhouse experience in Chicago with impeccable service and phenomenal food, Fogo de Chão is the place to go. We will definitely be returning and we hope to be served by Valmor again!

Had one of my best experiences today. Even though I have been here multiple times. The staff took Amazing care of me tonight. (Pro food tip) Ask for shrimp cocktail in a different way*** see uploaded picture. Didn’t even know it could come this way with sautéed onions, green peppers and yellow peppers!! Amazing!!

I went here for my birthday this past weekend. The service, food and vibes were probably the best I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant. It far exceeded my expectations and I’m already dreaming about my next visit! I highly recommend the full churrasco experience so you can try all the different delicious meats!

Unbelievably wonderful experience. Delicious food, waited on hand and foot, and lovely decor and dishware. Valmor, our server, was extremely funny, charming, and gave us excellent recommendations. The whole place made my mom’s birthday lunch magical. Do yourself a service and come here!

Went on a date to celebrate. Everything was wonderful, from the food, to the drinks, to the service. Valmor, Carlos, and Ramon went out of their way to make the experience even better. Valmor continuously asked what cut of meat we’d like and he’d run back to make it fresh. The salad bar was also a highlight with not only salad and fruit, but steak toppings like roasted garlic and peppers. All of the cocktails were very well priced with good pours. Carlos even gave us a dessert just to make our experience better. Ramon, the manager, came over quite often to check on us and was very friendly and thankful that we came in to dine. It was my boyfriend’s first time, and he’s already making plans to come again! Can’t wait for next time

We are brazilians and tried many brazilian churrascarias before, but since we were visiting Chicago, we were curious to experience an “American version”. I am happy that we came. Overall, the meat selection is good. It does not have the same variety as traditional churrasco as back home, but it was ok. The main down side for us is that most of the meat cuts were missing seasoning in our opinion, so we had to ask for table salt and it helped a bit. The cuts are fresh and tasty, and being an all-you-can-eat experience, you won’t find a premium steak here, but they for sure match the value that you are paying for. Starting with the salad bar, there is a variety of vegetables and cold cuts. They also bring some hot bites to the table, such as Fried Polenta and Pao de Queijo. The picanha is of course one of the highlights. Bottom sirloin was good as well. The queijo coalho (grilled curd cheese) is always a great confort food, and we were happy to taste it here. We almost skipped the chicken, because hey, we eat a lot of chicken at home, but I am glad that we tried one. The chicken was so well marinated, perfectly grilled, and juicy that it was probably the best option of the entire meal. We visited on a monday at around 3pm, so it was not the peak time, but they still had a good crowd concentrated in one area of the restaurant. That is probably why the service was a bit slow. Some cuts only came one time, and other cuts like Linguiça and Lombinho did not come to our table at all over the nearly 2 hours that we stayed there. We still had plenty of other cuts, and left the place fully satisfied, although we missed some things that we were looking forward to trying there. It was our anniversary, and the server was kind to give us a dessert, which we had no room left for it, but it was so delicious that we finished it all.

One of our favorite spots to enjoy brunch each year. The atmosphere is warm, inviting, festive and classy! Alex was wonderful. Thank you so much for ensuring we have the best time.
