Recently we ate at Texas De Brazil in Orlando, FL, which was outstanding. This place is basically the same thing, and was very good, but I have to say I liked TDB better. Our server Manuel was very good, though it was a little harder to get the cuts of meat we liked best here when we were ready for... More

They can not be beat for quality nor quantity of meat. Brazilian style eating where the green flip of your card tells the roaming waiters you are ready for more. I eat here several times a year, it's my go to place when I'm craving steak. Salad bar offers salmon, olives, black beans, cheeses... A step above your typical fare.... More

I visited Fogo de Chao during OTC week in Houston. The place was really crowded and we had to wait for 45 minutes for our table despite having a reservation. The meat was very good. But the service was fast and furious and I left me thinking that I should probably give the place another chance when they aren't this... More

Fogo de Chao is an experience all it's own that you do not what to miss. This is a meat lovers heaven so don't over do the great salad bar.

Although meats are great, Fogo is overpriced. I always feel like they are trying to rush me which is not the case with other chuasscarias in Houston. They all seem to be on Westheimer.

I have always enjoyes Rodozios: i am a beef eater. And the quality and variety in Fogi de Chao is very good. The salad bar is also extremly good (I normally skip it, but this time I visited it once!). And the restaurant even thought it is not brand new, it is very well conserved. My onky "but" would be...

My girlfriend and I were really impressed by the quality of service. Those were all over the place as soon as your water glass is half full they change it as well as the delicious bread. We will definitely go back.

My husband and I are Brazilians and we live in Calgary, but unfortunately we do not have an authentic Brazilian steakhouse here. On our trip to Houston, we went to "Fogo de Chão", which in Brazil is considered one of the best "churrascaria" when it comes to quality. To our surprise, they are as it is in Brazil: you'll love...

I come here pretty much every time I am in Houston. You really need to come with an empty stomach to fully appreciate the wide variety of very good meat cuts cooked to perfection. It is getting more expensive every time I come, with prices that have almost doubled since my first visit 10 years ago.
