It's Amazing Here...
If you have a special occasion this is a great place to go. The food is amazing and you definitely get your money's worth, just come prepared to eata lot! Not a great place for a vegetarian because there is a lot of meat served.

Brazilian Flavor
I have been to Brazil and have fallen in love with the food there. I would like to return to the country more often but the restaurant will keep my memory of the country alive.

Amazing
Get ready to eat! You will probably roll out of there, but it's so worth it. The food is amazing, great atmosphere, excellent wine, service is top notch, wonderful salad bar. I have no complaints at all. I can't wait to go back.

Where's the Beef?
I am not a huge meat eater but I had a blast at Fogo. I enjoyed the whole red light green light idea, giving me control of the limits of my excess. The food was delicious and the drinks were great.

Much ado about nothing
If you are a meat lover, like chain restaurants and have money to burn, this is perfect for you. If you prefer quality over quantity, avoid it. I was shocked that they charged the full adult price for my 11 yr. old son. I mean, how much meat can a kid eat? The place has a gimmick and that's about it. Felt like a hotel or cruise ship dining room. For that kind of money you could have a much better meal elsewhere in the area.

Good thing someone else paid :)
This place offers you a unique service concept of "espeto corrido". That's simply translates (Portuguse I found out while there) for "continuous service". And continuous it is - there's like 10-15 different meats alone you can try any or ALL of them! You can sample the entire menu, or just focus on your favorite foods.
This is a very very unique place and very very expensive - but such an enjoyable time you spend eating fabulously prepared foods. It's worth coming here no matter the cost and whether or not your pocket is paying for it!

Good but expensive
This restaurant was very good, although not necessarily for vegetarians. It is also quite expensive, so be prepared. Great for a special date or occasion.

Among the best in DC!!
Company paid for our outing and this was among the best places to eat. They seemed costly but hey, i did not pay a penny. Average per person is around $35 (but worth it)
Enjoy!
