Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse

My husband and I are huge fans of Fogo de Chão in Coral Gables. While we’ve visited other locations, this one remains our favorite. We’ve enjoyed everything from their meat menu, buffet and the bar, which offers amazing prices and a happy hour that feels like it never ends. On this visit, we decided to have a late lunch around 5:00 PM and tried something different, the whole roasted Branzino, a beautiful 2-pound fish. We ordered some beverages and patiently waited for our meal. Although it took a little time, it was absolutely worth it. Our server brought out the perfectly toasted Branzino, expertly cleaned and deboned right at our table. He added fresh lemon and olive oil before serving it onto our plates. The fish was delicious, fresh, flavorful, creamy, and tender. It came with mashed potatoes, banana, and polenta, which complemented the dish wonderfully. Next time, we’d add a salad to balance the richness. The service was, as always, attentive and friendly, even with some new faces. We highly recommend trying the Branzino, it’s a hidden gem in this renowned meat-focused restaurant. A truly memorable dining experience!

We went for a work event/training at Fogo de Chão and the entire experience was exceptional. The atmosphere was warm, vibrant, and perfect for a team gathering. The food was outstanding as always, with a fantastic variety of perfectly seasoned cuts, a fresh and abundant market table, and delicious sides that kept coming. The service was truly above and beyond. Everyone was attentive, but Alex, our server, made the night unforgettable. He guided our group with professionalism, kindness, and perfect timing. His knowledge and genuine care elevated the entire experience, and our team of over 20 people were very satisfied with his service. Highly recommend Fogo de Chão for any work event, celebration, or group dining. Excellent food, incredible service, and a memorable atmosphere. Thank you, Alex, for making our night outstanding!

What a great experience! Please come hungry to get the best experience. Upon arrival you will receive a card that lets waiters know if you want a certain cut of meat or chicken. There is a buffet salad/side bar (also unlimited) that offers a variety of veggies, salads, fruits and more solid sides like soup and rice. The staff is very helpful and attentive, they will absolutely share what type and f protein is being offered and you can absolutely ask for a second serving right away.

If you love grilled meats and steak, this is your place! They also have an amazing burger and a great salad bar. The drinks are well made and they have a great list of wines. The atmosphere is inviting and upbeat. I definitely recommend to anyone whether on a date or in a large group.

One of the best dining experiences I've had in Miami EVER. The servers who presented the meat were all really awesome. I like my meat more medium and at times when whatever cut they had was more rare, they'd REMEMBER how I liked it (at a table of 15) and say "no no, I'll have this cooked up a bit and bring it back". Very considerate. We'd often ask for specific cuts, we got it. The pineapple got cold- they made fresh stuff for us and brought it. Really went above and beyond. The manager (Kelsey, I believe) was incredibly friendly. Got 2 glasses of champagne for my cousin who had just celebrated his wedding the day before then when she learned we had a couple of people celebrating birthdays, she brought out a few complimentary desserts for the group. AND, instead of rushing us out as they had closed while we were still eating, they let us eat, finish our drinks and socialize well after the restaurant was closed to the public. I swear some staff had already gone home! HIGHLY recommended, really lovely evening, obrigado! 🙌🏾🙏🏾🫶🏾

The Market Table & Feijoada Bar and the tableside meat service at Fogo de Chão were excellent. The food was flavorful, and the staff adjusted to the temperature of meat requests while offering a wide variety of options. We also ordered mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, fried bananas, and corn as sides, delicious, though portion sizes were on the smaller side. Service was quick, but the gauchos didn’t always respond to the go/stop card right away. A special shout-out to Camillo, who truly made our experience wonderful with his attentiveness and warm service.

My sister in law and her husband brought us here for our wedding anniversary. From the first greeting to the last goodbye, incredible experience. You feel welcomed from the moment you walk in. We were greeted by different servers they took our drink order, they came by with the different steaks, but, one server made his mark: Marconi. What a personality! We enjoyed his presence and his humor! Food was great! Their fried cheese! The caipirinhas! Everything was so yummy! We look forward to coming back and celebrating our special occasions. Thank you Marconi and team for such a memorable experience!

This restaurant has been a favorite of ours since its opening. Therefore, it is no surprise we chose it to host our Office Christmas Luncheon. I have to say Sales Manager Osiris Prieto went above and beyond to accommodate us! She made it very easy to reserve and choose the menu especially at such a busy time of the year. The service was impeccable, and the food was delicious! Thank you so much for helping us create such wonderful memories.

Our server Micheal was very helpful and attentive. great restaurant. Food was very tasty!

The best Brazilian steak house. You will not be disappointed ---EVER ;);):););) Our favorite is the special or the picana. Lamb and chicken. top, bottom , filet. I can't express my love for the Brazilian taste and food. Oh and the drinks are always fantastic too !!!

The chicken was dry and would have benefited from gravy. The pork was also dry and needed applesauce (if you know, you know), though it was the only meat that had any noticeable seasoning. The lamb was dry, cold, and completely unseasoned. The steaks were inexpensive cuts that I would never normally order, and the meat overall was either overcooked or undercooked. Cutting into the meat revealed excessive gristle and fat, making it unpleasant to eat. Overall, the quality of the meats was poor, and there appeared to be very poor fire control from the kitchen staff. The mashed potatoes were already cold by the time the meats were served. The burrata was underwhelming and needed olive oil, salt, pepper, and significantly more stracciatella. The lobster mac and cheese was attempted to be delivered to the table well after we had finished our meal, at which point we had to refuse it. Service was also disappointing. When we tried to ask our waitress a question, she dismissed us by saying "you can wait" while waving us off, then immediately turned and provided excellent service to the table next to us. The only bright spot of the evening was the drink, which was excellent--and the sole reason this experience earns one star. Overall, the food lacked even basic seasoning, and I will not be returning.

Came for happy hour and there's some really good options. Would love if they could include a leafy salad on there though. Overall ok experience. Wouldn't get the spinach dip again but wanted it since they didn't have a salad. The steak was good but some parts were a bit burnt and chewy. We ordered the chicken sliders but I didn't eat it but my friend liked it. Would come again to try their all you can eat menu and see if that is better.

Still some of the best deals that you'll find in the area. Aside from their burger, they offer high end cuts if you opt for the full churrasco experience. They also have a unique rewards club that will earn you a tasty app rather quickly.

All day happy hour! At the bar & patio. Julia took care of us and she was amazing!! Drinks and food were delicious. Great spot for happy hour.

Delicious food, with phenomenal service and let me tell you the water never touched the bottom of my glass so you know the service was great!!! Haha. We ordered the $68/person Churrasco Experiance which brings all the cuts of meat (except the waygu that's a separate menu and price). The salad bar and hot bar is all included. Everything was fresh and was very delicious. Fogo de Chao is a bit on the pricer side but it's very nice for a night out and you will always receive 5-star service and quality. They do offer valet parking for $25 on the weekends. Ambience was very modern and large! Highly recommend to anyone! ^.^

Sergi and Manny is the best customer service experience I've ever experienced at any establishment. They kept checking on me for everything and not to mention the table was always clean.They went above and beyond to make this an expectational experience.I went to the Miami Beach Fogo de Chao and it was good but Coral gables was by far my favorite experience.The care and service you experienced is priceless.You can put a price on great people,service and food.

This was the perfect place for our annual Friendsgiving. They very easily can accommodate large parties and the service was wonderful. The location and ambiance really take it to the next level. The food is exactly what you would come to expect and they meet and exceed those expectations. Definitely recommend!

We have now visited this restaurant two years in a row for Thanksgiving dinner, and I am very happy to share a positive review. Our party of 8 included 3 elderly people and I therefore asked for a seating area near their buffet table as I would be going back and forth with their plates, the restaurant staff overall was very accommodating and friendly which made our experience a great one. Ambience was great as we didn't sit in the main dining room, which gets pretty loud from all the guests chattering. The second floor bar is a great place to enjoy a Caipiriña while waiting on your party to arrive in order for the main event to begin! The food display at the convenient buffet tables looked delicious, each person is able to serve themselves and enjoy, plus the meats service provided by the gauchos was plentiful and very tasty. We also ordered the whole branzino, which was cooked to perfection and deboned and served for the table. We took a couple of wine bottles and were charged a $35 per bottle corkage fee, which is typical in most restaurants. I will return with my family soon as this is one of the few places left in Miami where you can get great food, service and ambiance at a reasonable price.

Normally I'd have given a fantastic review because the food was very good, the "serving" part of the service was tremendous (you'll see what I mean by this later), and the atmosphere was terrific. $25 for valet parking pre-tip, very convenient. However, we had several problems which offset the positives. #1, we had a reservation, were there well before time, and they kept telling us it would be a long wait, more than 30-40 minutes. We can see a table right there in front of us, fully set and open. They claimed it was reserved for another party. What? That other party is not even here and we are, plus WE have reservations too. We weren't the only ones. Two other parties had reservations and were not seated either. And they were before us. It was chaos, not knowing who to talk to, getting the run-around. People raising their voices trying to get served. And just when you think you find someone to help you, they say they need to talk to the host. So where's the host? Nowhere to be found. Finally saw him and chased him down in the back and followed him everywhere till he eventually gave us the aforementioned table. Once seated it vastly improved, although it was a bit confusing because we had two waiters and they asked the same thing at different times. I told the 2nd guy we ordered wine from the 1st guy but he said he didn't see it in the system. But then the wine came. Finally they explained they are a team and we can talk to either waiter. Kind of a smug, condescending 'tude. Okaaaay. Once the food started flowing it was all good. Meats came fast; food was great. I highly recommend the garlic picanha. So good. Regular picanha also good. Same with most of the other steaks. Other meats were a litle overdone for me, like bacon-wrapped steak. And the salad bar was good. The meat servers really serve you well. Also asked for some grilled pineapple beacuse it never came to us and they gave an entire plateful. Very nice. And then came the bill. It was as expected but when they brought the check to sign, my credit card wasn't with it. I asked them for it and we looked all over the table and the waiter stand. Minutes later the 2nd waiter tells me his boss had it in his pocket and brings it to me. Huh? Anyway, I'm willing to bet this place is normally better than this. I'll chalk it up to a busy, busy Friday night. Unfortunately, my mind was on all the other stuff and I didn't take any food pics.

I usually go to Texas de Brazil and wanted to try Fogo de Chão for comparison. Overall, I think the two are pretty similar, but my friends preferred Texas de Brazil. Pros: * Pretty easy street parking, plus valet available. * Very nice interior and ambiance. * Food was good, and the buffet area had lots of options. Cons: * Service felt mediocre for the type of restaurant and price point. * The indulgent churrasco wasn't clearly explained--I thought it included more variety, but it turned out to only cover one option along with the meats and a dessert. In the end, it was a nice experience, but if I had to choose, I'd probably stick with Texas de Brazil next time.

Had a fabulous time at this elegant, welcoming place in Coral Gables. We came with a group of 15. At first we waited for a little bit in their upstairs lounge, enjoyed some nice happy hour cocktails (they have an all-day happy hour with some nice cocktails and such) . Then we went down and started the FEAST. Our server Marconi was friendly, charming, and an absolute presence. He made our night! I ordered the 'Full Charrasco' experience, which is an all you can eat meat experience. If you've never done it, you get a little card that's green or red on each side, you flip to green when you want to keep eating. Servers walk around and bring you the finest cuts of meat - I got to enjoy: Picanha, Rib, Chorizo, Lamb, Lamb Chops, Chicken, Bacon Wrapped Filet Mignon, and more! I ate till I couldn't eat another bite - and felt fantastic after. Everything was of the highest quality. This cost 68, and it was worth every penny. My wife doesn't eat red meat and had the Market Salad Bar experience, that one was 35. I would definitely come back. Great time!

To start off...our reservation was for 8:15 pm and we didn't get sat until 8:50 pm. I think that is a bit late if you ask me. The food was good but it also took a while for the meat to come around. What bothered me was that at times we had to ask for some of the sides that are supposed to be brought to the table. For example; the cheese with honey (super yummy) and the plantains we had to request for them to be brought over. The reason behind not taking any pictures was because we waited an hour almost to be seated so I was starving by the time the food came around. Don't get me wrong, the food was good. I love the concept of being able to walk right over to the salad bar and pile up my plate with veggies, cheeses and salads. The service for bringing the meats around was great. They come around for the majority of the dining experience and you have to turn a card from green to red. Green signifies "yes, please" while red signifies "no thanks". The picahna was delicious! I truly enjoyed the fried polenta...it could've used a dipping sauce imo. The candied bacon from the salad bar was a huge hit! The espresso martini was a bit strong...could've used more espresso. I feel the experience was a bit rushed because they sat us down late and we were here close to closing. Maybe next time will be a bit better, less rushed.

All day everyday happy hour! One of our favorite burgers in south Miami is here! Tuesdays are 1$ Caipirinhas! Great selection of Whiskey and we love the upstairs tasting room

Great friendly dining experience that was so heart-felt and entertaining. Major KUDO's to Marcone and rest of staff for making our Sunday an EXTRA special experience

I was there last weekend with my daughter and it was one of the most disappointing meals we've ever had. The meat was of the lowest quality, mostly chewy and inedible. Seasoning was non-existent on 90% of it. The few pieces that tasted like anything had cheap salt flavor (iodized salt with dextrose added). It wad also not cooked properly to our liking. We asked repeatedly for Medium Rare and almost every time got either medium well, well done or raw. Some of the gauchos have rough manners, rushing,not listening, and essentially throwing the meat on the plate, or attempting to add honey to the cheese without asking first. My perspective on all this is informed by extensive experience dining at Brazilian steakhouses and following a carnivore lifestyle where 98% of what I eat is meat. I had been to this location in August 2025 and it wasn't so bad, but this last visit left much to be desired. None of the meat served was Prime, seasoning is practically non-existent, meat is not cooked properly as requested, and gauchos need better training. The Fogo location at Dadeland was better when I last visited, so I will give that one a chance again next time. This location in Coral Gables needs to get their act together because for the prices they charge, this experience was embarrassing.

This Churrasco experience is on FOGO The spot is cozy enough for you to take full advantage of the all-you-can-eat The salad bar has all the veggie options you could imagine for you to build it up to your own taste. From cherry tomatos, peppers , cucumbers , sweet onions, red beet hummus, or spring mix salad that can be splashed with the Basil green goddess, and as an extra compliment the sweet-savory eggplantcondimented with soy sauce, vinegar, pepper spread, and special house flavoring. Drum rolls to the exquisite selection of cold cuts like Parmesan cheese, prosciutto, maple salted bacon, pasta salad, and roasted garlic . All the condiments are there for you to stack up with your greens before indulging in the fierce bloody meat. These are the must ingredients you need to try from Fogo's Market Table: - Cold-smoked salmon with basil dressing, red onions, and capers. - Feijoada: A traditional black bean stew with sausage served over white rice. - Two kinds of prosciutto and chorizo, along with quality cheeses - I like the Grana Padano from a wheel. - the candied bacon is exceptional, it mixes sweet spices that enhance the flavor of the bacon as well as the crispy texture of it. - roasted oven honey sweet potato and apples , deliciously sweet and adds a twist to any of the salad options. - the seasoned eggplants could easily be my top pick for the market table, considering it is so uniquely flavored, delivering a new taste of it. - pan de queijo bread crumbs, a toasty complement to your salad of choice. The fresh warm pan de queijo they bring to your table will sneakily fill you up, so be careful because probably you would like to eat it all. (So if you are planning to eat meat, just beware) - finally, to keep you warm, the ginger butternut squash soup will frizzle you with its bittersweet taste, plus a crunchy sensation due to the pumpkin seeds Now let's get those fangs sharp ‍ and wet your teeth with the juicy red lineup of meats. - lamp shops and garlic-based meat are the crown of the order, very tender in texture, clean with no almost grease, and its spunky taste that distinguishes it from the other flesh. - Filet mignon, which is my favorite clean-cut, ita just as juicy and chewable if you order it raw. - churrasco, a greasy cut with nerves on its consistency, is a suggested option for those meat aficionados. - picanha, one of my favorite sides of the cow, is strongly recommended if you are looking for less greasy options and bigger meat portion sizes. It's the typical Brazilian slice. - entrañas is not one of my top picks, but considering they are serving it fresh to your table, why not try its more robust and strong taste. You won't believe that there is still space for dessert, but when the nice and charismatic server, Hugo, tempts you with a flamed custard Cheesecake you have to go all in for it if you are a cheesecake fan. The toasted burned top adds a twist to this classic berry-whipped recipe. Thank you, Miranda and Osiris, for hosting and introducing us to this culinary journey! Meat enthusiasts, Fogo yourself the Brazilian easting festive experience you don't want to miss.

The place had amazing meat and a beautiful atmosphere. Marconi and Lucas treated us with so much respect and attention. Really great experience.

This restaurant was recommended by a cashier at a Brazilian market. Quite honestly when our uber dropped us off we almost turned around and left. We had been out all day and dressed very casual but they were so welcoming, gave us an amazing table and treated us nicely. My sea bass was cooked perfectly and liked that the walk up buffet was included. Our server was Hugo, he was so friendly and attentive. The place is beautiful and has such a fun vibe, will definitely come back next time we are in Miami

Great food cooked large variety Fast service Fresh meats cooked and then served to you at the table . Family friendly place Quiet Street level no steps Salads and food etc great Choices Restrooms

Really enjoyed this place. I was there for a work function. The old fashions i drank were nicely

This has got to be one of Coral Gables best kept secrets! I've worked in the Gables for many years and decided to try out Fogo De Chao's happy hour on a random day. Not only were the drinks at a great price but they were delicious! They also had a variety of options for food on the happy hour menu. Usually items on happy hour are nothing to rave about but the items on this menu are definitely worth a try! From the Burger to the Polenta fries you must try it out. To make it all even better there's a private bar upstairs where you can sit at if you are looking for a more chill experience. A must try in the Gables!

The food was great like always, but this time the service really stood out. If you're lucky enough to be helped by Patricia, Marconi, Flavio, or Ivan, you'll feel it right away -- they bring such a warm, personal vibe that the whole experience becomes unforgettable.

One of the best Fogo locations out of the 12 I've been to. The entire team working there had such great energy, which has been rare in my experiences considering the stressful environment. I hope everyone that goes has the privilege of meeting Marconi. He absolutely made our night with his hospitality, authenticity and kindness. We can't wait to go back just to see him. Our server Hugo was also fantastic. Since the meats are served by multiple people, so much of the overall dinner depends on the staff and server and they truly exceeded our expectations of Fogo. The meat service was nonstop and the salad bar was fresh.

Came here for a birthday dinner. Vibe of the place is great and everyone was super friendly. The food is delicious. Many in our party chose to have the full churrasco experience which is unlimited meat. And the salad bar. I had the salmon, salad bar included. The salad bar was delicious. Fresh and so many options. The salmon was ok. Cooked good but flavorless without the chimichurri sauce. The chimichurri sauce definitely made the salmon good. Everyone liked their meat options. Except the lamb chops, which my bf said tasted too gamey. He wasn't able to eat them. The desserts were amazing as well. Everyone loved the cheesecake. My less than 5 stars review comes from having to ask the waiter 4 times for a water refill and a togo menu. Both of which I never got. Everyone is our waiter he said. But no one could refill a class of water. However, if a drink was ordered. It came in a timely manner. To me that is a reason I likely won't be back here.

Long waits, terrible management, and overcooked meats just about sums up our trip to Fogo De Chao. After a long day of graduation celebrations we chose Fogo De Chao to cap the night off and had a reservation for 9PM for a party of 11 set. When you arrive be ready to fork some cash over to the valet because the parking situation there is terrible, although it is Coral Gables so you can't be too upset. We checked in at 8:45 and already overheard multiple people complaining about the wait time and saying they were not seated for their reservations despite a long wait. They notified us we could wait in the upstairs lounge until our table was ready. Unfortunately, we would be a part of the reservation fiasco. At 9PM we went up to the front with our party of 11 ready to go and were told they didn't have a table ready. We noticed that they had a long table capable of seating around 20 and asked if we could sit there and were told no as that sits too many people for us to use it. We waited a bit longer and received no word of when we would be seated. Other parties around us faced the same thing and there was a true frustration from all the patrons up front. 5, 10, 20 minutes went by as we fought tooth and nail to get confirmation on when we would be seated for a graduation dinner with elderly people in our party and we got nothing back from the manager outside of us being able to sit when the next group table was done paying (they had just ordered more food so the wait would be even longer). At one point we were told they "maybe" would open up a private room for us, but that was said to shoo us away and nothing came of it. It wasn't until 40 minutes of waiting beyond our res and us chasing the manager THROUGH the restaurant when they relented and sat us at the long table, the one we had requested 40 MINUTES BEFORE. Once we finally sat we ordered the Full Churrasco Experience which includes an assortment of meats and we also ordered a bottle of white and red wine. The wines were good and the meat was decent, although many of the cuts were overcooked such as the lamb. The Picanha was a standout as was the filet. The bacon wrapped steak is an honorable mention and we did enjoy the fried cheese with honey as well. For the price point it didn't seem worth it as we've had far better cuts of meat at other steakhouses and better service as well. The cherry on top was our card getting lost after we handed it over to pay the bill and it taking them 5 minutes to find it and when they did they realized they had dropped it on the floor. Overall just an absolute circus and for what, a bunch of overcooked meat? Maybe we'll give Fogo De Chao another chance one day but it will certainly not be at this location and definitely won't be without taking blood pressure medication beforehand.

Special thanks to Manny, Humberto, & Shawn who took great care of us & explained everything in great detail. We came in when it was a full house & still received the best attention and service. I love the atmosphere here as well as the menu; the queso asado is a MUST HAVE, as well as, the Gold Rush - aside from their awesome cuts of various proteins.

The meat is delicious. They go around nonstop offering all the cuts. We did their Miami spice menu which you pay $39/pp and you get 4 different cuts and unlimited sides. They have a salad bar with lots of choices. We also tried Caipirinha. All 3 flavors, original lime, strawberry hibiscus and passion fruit. My personal favorite was the strawberry hibiscus. Highly recommend making reservations because if you don't the wait time is over an hour. The grilled cheese was so delicious with a drizzle of honey. My daughter was obsessed with the fried polenta and the cheese bread! Very fresh and so yummy. The hostess is very attentive and gives you an update while you wait to be seated. Our waiter was very friendly and made sure nothing was missing on our table! Great service. I'm not big on meats but this is an experience you need to try at least once. Very yummy and fresh!

I recently visited Fogo in Coral Gables, i sort of had high expectations because it's the newest location.. but it was just okay. The salad bar looked like it needed upkeep, more replenishing. There was a prosciutto station, you were not able to serve yourself, it was necessary to ask personnel to slice it & serve it.. we asked 3 times, and never got help... we stood there waiting and no help came... i guess the manager who said was getting help could have served us, but did not... we got tired and went back to the table... the meat options were not that great, i had the garlic picanha and it was pretty tough, rough to even cut with a knife, NY strip was def not it.. i only liked the lamb... i've been to other Fogo locations & have really enjoyed it.. not sure why this location/dinner was off? Not sure i would recommend or visit again..

I had an incident with fogo previously and a manager reached out to me to resolve this situation. Not only did I receive a refund, i was told to come back and I will be well taken care of and that's exactly what they did. Best experience I ever had at a restaurant .I will be definitely going back!

Spectacular service from the whole restaurant staff but specially from MARCONI, he made as feel at home and part of the family. I am recommending my whole family to come here and served by Marconi. You have the best service man. Thank you so much

Came for my mom's birthday and it was a fantastic experience! Service was outstanding Manuel did a great job accommodating our large group. Food was on point as usual. Very tasty and the great selection of the market table. Everyone was comfortable and ate well, or rather over-ate well. This has now become my go to place for larger groups! You can't beat the good service and meal quality!

Such a fun experience! Make a reservation for sure! We had excellent service that was extremely attentive. This is not a relaxing experience but the food is worth every moment. We both ordered the Churassco experience which includes a salad bar and all of the premium meats one can consume. Don't fill up on those beautiful sides from the salad bar though if you want to enjoy all of the meats. Picanha and filet were our absolute favorites! I was not able to consume as much meat as my husband but I'm glad I tried. Next time I will indulge in the salad bar and maybe a small filet. Oh and the bread that comes to the table is to die for! I absolutely enjoyed the grilled plantains and the mashed potatoes that also just appear on your table. And the wine of course was on point! Basically, if you leave hungry...you're just weird or a vegan lol.

First and last time, total disappointment. I'm still here at the table, and I have time to wait to be served. I've called more than 3 times to be served. I had to order the meats. I've invited family and friends, and it's been a total waste of time. I was more concerned about being served than enjoying the dinner, so as not to embarrass my guests, and it was for nothing. I'm leaving disappointed. I DID NOT ENJOY ANYTHING. Looking forward to eating, enjoying the moment, and the empty plates, waiting and waiting, and no one serves me. I'm paying, and embarrassment is what I feel having to call to be served. I came to enjoy myself with my family, and it was a failure. After 30 minutes of ordering, the ribs arrived, just a thin cut. They wouldn't let me have another one when I was supposed to order the meat option, and the plate was empty. This is a total scam. I'm so disappointed... The tables were completely close together. More than a high-end restaurant for family enjoyment, it looked more like a student cafeteria. The chairs were so tight, it was impossible even to walk. Please, please check what you're publishing. Nothing I saw in the ads and photos corresponds to the reality I saw. I can't understand why this service has a 4.7 rating on Google. The only reason I didn't get up from the table and leave was because I had already consumed "water and a slice of papaya and another of pineapple." God, what a disappointment! What a hopelessness to go out and have a "nice time" and leave disappointed.

Visited this location and the service was horrible. The manager Manny was very understanding and apologized however it doesn't change the fact that the server came to our table once. Never checked on us again. We had to flag someone down when we needed something. We ordered dessert and it never came until we complained. The business model isn't that complicated. Very disappointed. The table next to us was complaining about the same things.

We have experienced a drastic decline in service at the Coral Gables restaurant. They do not bring everyone's food at the same time. Also they bring the food, but do not bring the sides. You could finish eating and some friends have not started. The valet is now $25 same as the lunch we just paid for. Skipping this restaurant from now on.

Patrick the host was amazing. He made us feel welcomed and quickly got us seated. Our server Manny was attentive and very funny. He made our experience truly special. The food was great as always!!

Best $10 burger meal. Abi is an excellent server who tended to all of our needs in a timely manner. Can be pretty disorganized getting seated so I recommend a reservation

While I have had the pleasure of eating in other locations of this wonderful chain, my experience along with that of my family and friends last night was horrible! We literally waited for what seemed like for ever for everything to include water and drinks which we never received, we just gave up on the drinks. But, in all candor what bother me most along with my family was the actual level of rudeness displayed by two different Waiters, one our own server and the other one a server's assistant. I never thought I would say this, but I will never set foot in this restaurant again. I believe you lost five customers last night.

My professional group had a Christmas celebration at Fogo on Monday from 6 to 8 p.m., and it was wonderful. We had a private room on the second floor with a stated capacity of 60 that had large picture windows, giving it an open, airy feeling. The room was filled with comfortable sofas in conversation groupings with small tables, as well as a bar. Each sofa had a couple of pillows. At the start of the event, trays were set out with different bites on each table. The bites were both tasty and plentiful. Evita was our bartender/hostess. She met our needs as though we were guests in her home... a truly impressive display of hospitality. Fogo is fortunate to have her working there. On the back of our nametags were discount cards for future Fogo visits. We'll certainly return for next year's Christmas celebration, if not before.

The food 10000/10 , the service was spectacular, and the ambiance was romantic. My partner and I did the all you can eat meats and it was worth it !!! I believe 60 + per person plus access to the buffet. The drinks were absolutely delicious and strong, I left extra happy haha. I will definitely come back. Great great greatttt overall

This is such a great restaurant , beautifully appointed, elegant and inviting, the service is phenomenal and they have a great salad bar with many good selections. The meats are above par and the prices are well below what you'd expect.

Just dined here tonight and enjoyed the delicious burgers at the bar. I've been to this location before and, honestly, didn't have the best experience--until now. From the moment I walked in, the host Anthony was incredibly kind and attentive. Even on a busy Friday night, he made sure we felt welcomed and comfortable, let us know a table would be ready soon, and even offered us water right away. His attentiveness and warm attitude really stood out. During my meal, Manny stopped by twice, and thanks to him I'll definitely be coming back. His service was phenomenal--so attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely caring. Fogo is truly lucky to have him, and I can already tell he's going to bring many more guests back with his hospitality. The burgers were fresh, the tres leches was absolutely scrumptious, and the overall atmosphere felt wonderful. Huge thanks to Anthony and Manny for making this visit so memorable!

We had a fabulous Caymus, wine tasting dinner, we had great service from David and Rachel, the amount of food given was ridiculous, the events here are very well done. I encourage anyone that has the opportunity to attend to do so

You must visit EVITA at the Next Level whiskey Lounge every Wednesday. Very knowledgeable of the spirits and a true mixologist. You can't beat the live trumpet player, silky tunes and fresh cigars...I'll be back every Wednesday

Last week a co-worker and I went to Fogo De Chao for lunch. I have had my eye on this place for a little while. Our experience was great. We walked in and were greeted by the host Patrick. Loved his vibe he was attentive charismatic and professional. He sat us in a nice location of the restaurant. I had the steak experience it was delicious. We will definitely be returning to check out the food and hopefully greeted again by Mr. Patrick.

Came here for Mother's day with the fam to enjoy a fabulous buffet meal. We made reservations but went upstairs to the cocktail lounge to have some champagne while we waited. Once they were ready for us we proceeded to check the salad bar out. The place was packed and people piled on the goodies on their plates. There was everything from charcuterie boards, to cold salads, pasta salads, eggs, waffles, french toast,rice n beans,smoked salmon etc. And let's not forget the men going around waiting to serve you plenty of cuts of meat like picanha, churrasco,lamb, bacon covered chicken etc. It was all so very good and I recommend coming back for any or no occasion at all. You can't help it if you have great taste.

Located in the heart of Coral Gables, Fogo De Chão is a nice spot that offers a lively all you can eat experience with a wide variety of meat cuts. Plenty of folks walking around with the cuts and super attentive and always asking. The service as superb festive ambiance and mood for fun.
