Editorial Review for Fogo DE Chao Churrascaria – by Holly Hickman

The Scene
A fire-breathing pit casts flames onto huge cuts of meat. A sea of white tablecloths and a sumptuous salad bar dominate the large open space. Gauchos, or Brazilian cowboys, spirit over to tables wearing puffy pants, blue shirts and red kerchiefs. Each carries a silver skewer piercing a beautifully seasoned cut of meat. Guests turn paper discs to either the green or red side. When the gauchos see green, they come in droves to offer slices of succulent fare.

The Food
The meats--lamb, bacon-wrapped chicken, garlic chicken and every possible cut of beef--are astonishing in their simplicity and deliciousness. The salad bar is a wonder in itself, offering hearts of palm, prosciutto, exotic cheeses, a variety of olives and other delights. Addictive, hot cheese puffs melt on the tongue. Side dishes include decadent caramelized plantains and rich whipped potatoes.

People go here for the meat, and it's very good. Also, the salad bar is outstanding. What mystifies me are the inedible mashed potatoes and fried bananas they put on every table. And yes, it is expensive--$48.50 for dinner, that does not include any beverage or dessert. Still they are better than their main competition, Texas de Brazil.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

We were visiting from out of town. Wow, food was soooo good. Highly recommend it. However, go very hungry, you won't be able to move afterwards.

Pros: Amazing food, fun place

Cons: You won't be able to close your pants
