This was amazing. I am vegetarian and I loved the salad bar alone but I also got the cauliflower steak. Next time I would prefer the salad bar only(the cauliflower steak and chick pea salad was delicious but I was full with just the bar).

Our second time at Fogo de Chao Austin and still had a very good experience with the service, the meats, the sides; and we just discovered that they have great desserts, too! Try the creme brulee, it is luscious! We all had the Indulgent Churrasco and chose the butter-bathed lobster tail. Yum! And we also added truffle butter to dip the meats. Double yum! And the $10 all-you-can cocktails is a win! You can switch and try all their cocktail options. I recommend going there for brunch so you have the rest of the afternoon to digest all that meat.

I celebrated my birthday here, first time visiting the Austin location. Fernando, Goho, and team provided excellent customer service. The food was amazing and fresh. The staff were helpful with suggestions and the meat doesn’t stop coming lol. I had a great time.

I had an incredible time at Fogo de Chão! The happy hour was absolutely amazing — great atmosphere, delicious food, and top-notch service. The sliders were especially outstanding — flavorful, juicy, and perfectly cooked. A huge shoutout to Justin, Clemente, and Fernando for their outstanding hospitality and attention to detail. They truly made the experience memorable and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommend stopping by for happy hour — you won’t be disappointed!

Thursday night staff really ruined the experience of a brazillian steak house. I'm not sure if it was where they had us sit, but the staff seemed to actively avoid bringing over meats. The place was really well decorated, and the salad bar was nice, but we had to wait 30 minutes before they started bringing out meats, and once they did, they seemed to just walk right past us. Which was confusing since we sat in the doorway in the room right next to the kitchen. So it felt like they were actively avoiding my wife and I. At somepoint I started to just yell to get their attetion and gesture to our table so we could get food. That seemed to be the only way to participate in the brazilian steakhouse portion. The servers were pleasant when they finally did allow us to get some meat, but it was too far and between. The food also was not what you would expect at that price point. I wouldnt say any of it was bad, but the seasoning was all over the place. Some foods were wayyy too salty, or too much parmaseany, or just not seasoned. I think the most dissapointing was we paid for the lobster tail, and it had no flavor at all. Overall only thing that made this place nice was the atmosphere and location, will not be back.
