text: I've heard of Fogo de Chao awhile back and what I had heard were people going nuts about it, they loved it. Then it was my turn to try it out for the first time to see if what these people were saying was what it was all cracked up to be or not. Thank God I didn't pay the bill!!! I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses before but this I wouldn't rate it with the others at all. There was nothing at all special about the meat or in how it was cooked. I've had steak at other restaurants that weren't Brazilian and that steak was a lot better than here. The salad bar was alright, I think I was so shocked with the poor quality of the meat that the salad bar made no difference at all anyways, it was alright, a lot better than the meat if I recall. I was really really surprised and disappointed and of course expecting it to be a whole lot better than what it was, not good at all. Surprised and wondered what all the hype was about after all. Round 2: Went once again at the one in Washington, D.C. also, wrote a review on that one too, check it out!
