Excelent place! The meat si really good. But the buffet si the beat. Remember to leave some space for the Creme Brulee !

Allen Arcade

Bacon wrapped filet. Yes please. Folks from many countries including those from South America all hail the goodness that is Fogo. After all these years, it has yet to be beaten in Churasscaria's.

Natalie S.

Lamb chops all the way! If you don't see the gaucho , ask for it and they'll bring some over cooked exactly the way you want it. You can request mint jelly too. YUM!

Tiffany Quach

Cheese bread , heart of palm, salmon with green sauce , a small ceasar salad , lamb meat , and their house special is a must have. Have a cheesecake to go!!

Allen Arcade

The Rump Roast is my second favorite meat at Fogo and is also their house specialty . They thinly slice it for you and once all three chunks have been sliced both sides, they take it back to the grill!

Allen Arcade

The Bacon Wrapped Filet is my favorite item on the menu. It's filet mignon with well , bacon around it! Don't know what their process is but both the bacon and filet are tender yet a little crispy !

Tiffany Quach

Finally tried asparagus , so GOOD. Heart of Palm was absolutely amazing and lamb chops galore, no other brasilian churrascaria will ever top this one.

Catherine Healy

A authentic Brazilian steakhouse , salad bar , Brazilian side dishes, and award-winning wine list , 15 cuts of meat and offer you continuous tableside service.. The Gaucho Way of Preparing Meat.

Great salad bar , don't miss the cheese bread which is complimentary , they say the recipe is hidden in a vault for how tasty these cheese pillows are

Allen Arcade

The Fogo Parmesan Pork is a unique trip for your taste buds. Crusted with tons of cheese , these little pork chops will surprise you. Like the pork ribs , they are sometimes too dry. Just return it.

Allen Arcade

These little pork sausages taste like breakfast sausages you find in Europe or South America. A soft little mashup with a little kick to it. Don't fill up on them but give them a try or two.

Allen Arcade

This is the bacon wrapped filet from Chama Gaucha just a mile or so east of Fogo. They'll even ask how you'd want you filet cooked! Their filet mignon is also superior.

Nedra

The salad bar is insane. Like, I would just post up at the salad bar if the meat wasn't so amazing. Speaking of which -- steak . Don't get full on the other stuff -- zero in on the steak .

Allen Arcade

Folks, if you love Fogo, you NEED to try Chama Gaucha down the street (east) on Westheimer. The food and seevice is better and it is much cheaper! Ran by former Fogo U.S. operation mgmt team.

Injy

The best food, exquisite salads , specially when you are with your special friends.

IM A LAMB CHOP GOD. AND THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE U LIKE LAMB CHOPS TOO ????????????

Ivonne Gonzalez

Their salad bar is amazing. A feast for carnivores! The papaya creme for dessert with cassis is a must!

Vlad Davidiuk

Wow. Much meat. $100 for two big hungry dudes (me & my dad).

Jerry Peruchini

Come hungry, skip the salad bar . Sirloin is amazing, heck it's all amazing. Perfect for a special occasion .

Marni

Come hungry, and don't spend too much time of the sides/salads. The meat is the star and it is delicious.

Yuqing Lei

Great salad bar ~ Love the smoked salmon and their lemonade .

Bandar Binkulaib

Fantastic meat and salad selection . Better than any high end brazilian steakhouses around town .

Don Collins

Don't fiddle with the bread they give you or the salad bar...just save your space for the MEAT!!!! This place has filet mignon , leg of lamb , parmesan pork sirloin , and much more. So good.

Allen Arcade

Ah yes, the infamous Fogo Bottom Sirloin ! With its loose and marbled meat texture, you'll fall in love and wish you had a tortilla to wrap cross cut strips of meat into!

Jared Hunt

Top Sirloin , Filet Mignon , Bottom Sirloin , Ribeye , & House Special ! There is no more room for salad bar , bread , etc.... When going, have an early breakfast and late lunch . Give your stomach plenty of

Allen Arcade

This is a horrible sample photo of what is normally a golden red price of juicy chicken breast wrapped in bacon . You'll be astounded by how juicy a non-fried/baked piece of breast meat can be!

Danial Shams

Everything. Skip the salad and go for all meat. The filet mignon is the best.

Jenn

Great date night place, just not on a first date. Great selection of meat, cheeses , and salad too!!

Ed

The steak is great, but the sweet bananas and mashed potatoes won my ❤.

Allen Arcade

This is what the Beef Ribs at the entry way look like table-side. Extremely loose and tender enough to be eaten without a knife. It's also the least seasoned of all their meats. Stuff it in the bread !

Marriette Ajibode

Come here hungry ! If you love meat this is the place to be! You can't go wrong!

Allen Arcade

These Fred Flintstone looking displays at the restaurant entry are the "beef ribs " on the menu. This meat is similar to Texas brisket but with more subtle seasonings.

Tiffany Quach

Ask for a lemonade . They will never fail to please you. And for dessert , get a cheesecake . Extremely worth it.

Hania Elzarka

Everything is great over here!

Ziya K

Ohh, very well place, high quality and delicious...yammiii

Allen Arcade

Must... not... fill up on bread . I give up as they're too damn tasty to pass up. This is one item though that Nelore on Montrose comes pretty damn close on.

Daniel Driver

Everything. Everything is just so good

Sean Kelly

The salad bar is for suckers. Save room for all the meat! Though, the salad bar is good too.

Allen Arcade

It's easy to strategize your valuable stomach space and avoid this seemingly "plain" chicken leg. Don't! It is tender dark meat marinated with beer and grilled with a light salty edge. Try it!

Allen Arcade

Fogo's Rack of Lamb are served up a little tangy and salty. These grilled treats taste very similar to Middle Eastern grilled / fired lamb chops .

Allen Arcade

Don't these "dry" Pork Ribs . Seasoned with lemon pepper , you'll be tempted to polish off the entire rack! Occasionally, they come out a little dry. Just tell your gaucho to bring out another rack.

Rene Hart

Loved the meat being served hot and at your table.

Dani Rose

I like the filet and the lamb . The bread is awesome, but very filling. The plantains , they are bananas .

CultureMap Houston Manager

The gaucho lifestyle is depicted through large murals on the walls and with a grandiose table used as a salad buffet .

Paul Ivory

Sorry Fogo but during Houston Restaurant Weeks we have been going to Tradicao Brazilian Steakhouse .

Salvador Estrada

The salad bar is amazing ... But the grill is awesome!!!

Allen Arcade

The Garlic Pork is their sirloin broiled with a thick layer of garlic all around and an edge of yummy fat.

Allen Arcade

The Fogo Filet Mignon is something they added about 5 years ago. It's the most tender of the cuts served.

Andy Strickland

Everything. Try everything.

Allen Arcade

The on premise prepared "bacon bits " is technically a salad bar item but I consider it one of the Fogo meats. :)
