    First off, we started at the bar for a drink. The drinks were delicious: I had an old fashioned and fiancé had a side car with cognac. The service was excellent, flat out. Our waiter Nikita was very nice and attentive, and our guy Fernando made sure everything was great for our whole dinner. They really are the only reason I didn’t rate less than 3 stars.

    Now onto the food: while I found the quality of the food to be good, it wasn’t anything to write home about as far as taste and seasoning.

    The best cuts of steak were the most bland, and the lamb was very gamey. The top sirloin was kinda tough and very bland. We didn’t get to try any rib cuts or any pork. I’ll say we got seated around 9:45 and they stop seating at 10:30 so maybe that’s why, but still disappointing.

    The best steaks we had were the garlic steak, the bacon wrapped steak, (and fiancé said filet mignon was good). The chicken was really tasty and well seasoned too.

    The best sides/Apps were the complimentary cheese bread, the roasted cheese with honey, the roasted zucchini, squash & cauliflower, Brazilian street corn, and the fried bananas.

    The very best thing we had all night besides the cheese and honey was the cheesecake crème brûlée! It was so good we had to take one home, and I don’t even like cheesecake. And idk if it’s because I’m special or if everyone gets this, but they wrote a cute lil thank you message on my plate (pictured).

    Overall, I’m glad fiancé got to experience it, but we probably wouldn’t go back unless someone invited us for a dinner or event. Thank you Nikita, Fernando and staff!

    Holly is new but she made our first experience at this restaurant one to remember! For first timers, do the full experience and pro-tip: the chicken, sausage, and bacon wrapped steak were some of our favorites

    I had a wonderful experience for a couples trip. Nakita and Victor were so accommodating to such a large party. They made sure we had everything we needed. The food and service was exceptional. Fernando, our customer service specialist, checked on us several time throughout our dinner. His attentiveness to our dinner request did not go unnoticed. When back in the Austin area I will definitely return.

    Amazing all around. I feel VIP any time I go there. Cheese bread is magical. Pincanha is the best meat in the universe. They kept bringing new and special dishes that were not part of the standard menu, it was exciting to have surprise dishes. It's a unique experience that makes eating exciting and fun! I was giddy all day anticipating the adventure and it never fails to impress.

    My coworkers and I went for one of our birthdays. A group of young, Black, happy professionals- we were treated with incredible service.

    I thought since I don’t eat red meat, I wouldn’t be able to enjoy much. I was wrong, they had plenty of options for me!

    We loved our experience. The food, the service, the atmosphere: all terrific!

    Brandon was attentive and kind. He was efficient and

    Fernando was extremely accommodating, made us feel like family.

    Axel Ariel was a great young man, very mature and gave great service.

    The experience and the food was perfect. A great meal and a great memory. We’ll be back!

    This place has got life figured out. The staff is on top of everything, constantly checking on tables. Salad bar was a little TOO good, and don’t get me started on the Key Lime Pie. We only really enjoyed like 2 of the meats that were offered but the salad bar offerings, the bread, sides, & dessert were worth the price alone. Will be returning for sure!!!

    Everything was absolutely Delicious...! High quality Steak House. The bacon wrapped chicken just melts in your mouth, it was so soft and juicy. Cooked to perfection. Well worth the money spent for the small celebration I had for my Husband. Thank you guys for such a Lovely evening. Can't wait to go back.

    I would highly recommend Fogo de Chao! Amazing food, great service. It made birthday so special! I've been to buffets before, this is so much more!! The food presentation is fantastic, the steaks are all delicious and the price is just right. You get A LOT of food! I want to send a special thank you to Tai who made our experience even better. We felt like family even though he just met us. Thank you for making my birthday so memorable!! We love you ❤
