I always had a desideratum to dine at Fogo. I always wondered what a dining experience would be…read more Forward. Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse is considered an upscale complete with table linens, celebratory atmosphere, and "all-you-can-eat" venue, typically with a bustling, energetic Southern Brazilian cuisine, serving churrasco barbecue style meats and traditional side dishes. This location is in Elmhurst, Queens, NYC and adjacent to Queens Center Mall where patrons can shop and subsequently conclude the day with a wonderful meal. Party of two for "All For One Price" continuous, fire-roasted cuts brought to your table, endless sides, and seasonal specialties from the Market Table - all for one price. The "Market Table" is a open buffet which includes fruits, vegetables, and seafood. This Market Table is very large. Food is very fresh and abundant readiness. I made the mistake to ruin my appetite with crackers mere hour before sitting at our table. Fire roasted meat distribution to table and carved with patrons catching a piece using a tong. Fogo is a meat lover's paradise for a heavy steak meal. The bottom sirloin or bacon wrapped steak, is noted by Yelpers, always dry. The parmesan crusted pork is flavorful and surprisingly juicy. I highly enjoyed the salmon and Caesar salad. The Green Card system is a signaling device used in traditional Brazilian service, known as Churrasco which allows patrons to control the pace of a meal of the "all-you-can-eat" buffet experience. Green Side (Go): When you place the card with the green side facing up, it signals the Gaucho chefs that you want to continue receiving service. Continuous Service: Chefs will frequently visit your table to carve various fire-roasted meats directly onto your plate, including signature cuts like Picanha (top sirloin), Filet Mignon, Ribeye, and lamb chops. Red Side (Stop): When you need a break or are finished, you turn the card to the red side to signal the chefs to stop. Rosé, Montes "Cherub" Colchagua Valley, Chile Dry, seductive, and elegant, it is a very smooth good finish. This wine may me float. I always have a predilection for wine. Caipirinha, Brazil's national cocktail This drink is made with cachaça (a sugar cane), hard liquor, sugar and lime with ice. It's refreshing for my friend. Chocolate Molten cake with vanilla ice cream One word: WOW! Customer service is very attentive and polite with kindness in a celebratory positive mood. Our party of two were inquired if we needed anything during mid-dinning experience and my friend requested Brazilian grilled cheese, espetinhos de queijo with honey. Pão de queijo, Brazilian cheese puff bread is served. High ceilings and there is a large relief statue of Antônio Caringi, Brazilian sculptor (1905-1981). Business cards and mints are abundantly available for grabs. I strongly suggest table reservations in advance, particularly for weekends and holidays as this large dining hall was bewilderingly very quickly filled as we dined on extreme artic cold February, Saturday. Every day can be one's birthday celebration. I think being alive with another tomorrow is a reason to be celebratory. I would surely return for another visit - enter empty stomach.

Our waiter was nowhere to be found most of the night -- even when it was time to pay the bill. Staff barely came around, and we constantly had to get up and flag someone down just to get attention. If you want a real rodizio experience, go somewhere else. The food wasn't enough to make up for how disorganized and inattentive the service was. Definitely not worth the time or money. Never again.

We had wings, French onion soup, and the 22oz steak--perfectly cooked medium rare, juicy, and melted in my mouth. The only thing was the steak came out warm instead of hot, like it may have been waiting for my mac and cheese, which came out piping hot. The mac & cheese with bacon and the loaded baked potato were both delicious. Shoutout to our bartender Somaya--super sweet and very attentive! Only downside: parking is terrible, especially on Saturdays. Don't risk parking in Fogo de Chão's lot either--you could get towed. Overall, great food and service. I'd definitely go back!

We arrived a few minutes early and were greeted by friendly staff who brought us right to our table. The interior is upscale, clean, and modestly decorated. Debbie was our server and she was attentive, knowledgeable, and warm. We ordered the calamari, tuna tartare, and a dozen oysters to start. The calamari was a surprisingly small portion but it was cooked well. The tuna tartare was served with avocado and taro chips that held up nicely to the fish and avocado. The oysters were shucked beautifully, already separated from the shell, sitting in their brine, and there were no broken shell bits. For my entree, I had the blue cheese and Duval mussels. The broth was velvety and not too sharp. It paired perfectly with an order of crispy fries. We had absolutely no room left for dessert.

Recommendations- Parillada (of course.) In terms of meats, all the steaks were excellent, with a…read moreparticularly good skirt/sirloin, and in terms of offal, the best were the sweetbreads, tripe, and black sausage. Excellent shrimp in garlic as well. I went to this Argentine spot a couple of days ago with 6 others, having previously been to their long-running Corona location a good while ago. This new location, by comparison, has only been open for a few months. The spot is casual, and the staff is friendly. Before the rest arrived, a few people ordered drinks, including some Mexican beers and, for me, a Quilmes. As with their other location, they gave us some toasted bread and sausages to begin with, which were tasty. There was a nice fragrant chimichurri sauce on the table. We started with two appetizers. The better app was an obligatory one for Argentine parilladas, Provoleta, or Provolone a la Parrilla, listed as grilled provolone in oregano sauce for $11.90. There were also some olives and some yellow pickled peppers, and it was standard and tasty, with a mild oregano flavor. The other one was the $12.90 Ensalada de Aguacate, or in other words, an avocado salad, with some red wine vinegar, olive oil, and Italian dressing on the side. There was plenty of very good quality avocado in there, but the salad otherwise was boring, with mostly lettuce along with some sliced tomatoes, onions, and some cucumber. The main dishes, of course, consisted of two of their parillada, a mixed grill platter, with both of them being ordered medium rare. The first one was their standard Parillada Para Dos o Tres Personas with skirt steak, short rib, sweetbread, tripe, kidney, and two sausages; black and Argentine. For the 2/3 person portion, it was $65.90, and it came with two sides. The Skirt Steak/Entraña on both this and the other mixed platter was wonderful, being tender and juicy with plenty of beef flavor. The Short Ribs/Costillas were flavorful, though a tad fatty. In terms of the achuras, or offal, my favorite of the bunch was the Sweetbreads/Mollejas, being perfectly cooked with a soft texture. I also loved the Tripe/Tripa, which more resembled intestines, which were clearly cleaned very well, as they lacked any gamey flavor. The texture otherwise was nice, and this was most of the others' favorite offal. The Kidney/Riñón was most of the other people's least favorite, with the strongest flavor, but as someone who likes liver, I still enjoyed it to an extent. In terms of sausages, the Argentine Sausage/Chorizo had a mild flavor, and the Morcilla/black sausage was excellent with a snappy casing and a very mild iron flavor. Compared to last time, this was even better. The more expensive of the mixed grills we got was the Parillada Especial Para Dos o Tres Personas, with more skirt steak, along with Flat Steak, flat rib, short rib, shell steak, and sirloin steak. This was $80.90 with 2 sides, and was also excellent. My least favorite, as before, was the short ribs, with the rest of the steaks having a mix of textures, with my probable favorites being the Flat/Vacio and the Sirloin/Cuadril. It was a ton of perfectly cooked meat, but it felt a bit boring by comparison this time, with the offal being so good on the other platter, compared to the other location. Our only other main dish was the $25.90 Camarones al Ajillo, or shrimp sauteed in garlic sauce, which was also served with one side. For a steak place, the shrimp here were better than most steakhouses, being plump and juicy. The delicious garlic sauce paired wonderfully and was especially good with the various sides. This was an expected hit and a necessary bite between all the various meats. For the free sides, we got two of the Plátanos Maduros, along with Arroz con Habichuelas, Ensalada Rusa, and Papas a la Provencal. Our favorites were the sweet plantains and the rice, especially with the meat juices or garlic sauce added. The Russian potato salad reminded me of a thicker version of salad Olivier, with plenty of mayo. The papas were the plainest, and I presume the Papas Frita/French Fries were better, but we chose not to order them. As we were already very full with a bit of leftovers, the postres/dessert was Panqueques Con Dulce De Leche for $9.90. These consist of crepes filled with milk caramel, and they were rich and tasty. It was great to share, and it was a good ending to the meal. We gave a generous tip, got leftovers, and still spent around $38 a person for some excellent food. Would recommend heavily, just like their other location. Rounding up to 5, or rather cinco estrellas.

My husband said it was amazingly delicious! I had the salmon tacos which came with this bangin mango slaw that was sweet and a little spicy. Never had or seen salmon tacos on any menu that I can think of. It was really good and something I'll def go back for. For drinks, we had mojitos.

Not a soul was disappointed by my suggestion!! Located kind of off the beaten path on Cypress going towards Glendale, you'll find Kafe. It's so adorable and cozy inside. Seating is comfy and plentiful. You seat yourself and the absolutely lovely and adorable older waitress comes to bring menus. I sat on the booth part of the table and chairs section. If you're 5'5" and under, I suggest not sitting there because you'll sink down and have to reach up for your food. They have an extensive drink menu from juices to all different coffee/tea variations and a fully stocked bar. I had the Dirty Chai latte. Chai tea with espresso. SO GOOD!!! I could have drank multiples of those. For my main I had my usual, avocado toast. Not every establishment knows how to make a good avocado toast. Kafe knows what they're doing! Thick sourdough toast with smashed avocado, mixed greens, grape tomatoes with poached eggs that are topped with hummus (never would have thought to do that!) and smoked salmon. Very filling and perfectly executed. They also have amazing deals on Uber Eats. Things that are normally $17, you can get for only $10! Through delivery, I've had the Kafe Steak and Eggs grill master plate which was an enormous amount of food! Tender, perfectly seasoned steak and home fries. A whole side salad as well. Also has the Kafe Southern Chicken sandwich which was quite possibly the best chicken sandwich that I've ever had! An absolute monster sized sandwich with the crispiest, juiciest chicken on the fluffiest brioche bun. Some of the tastiest fries as well. Can't go wrong with anything here! Prices are great, the service is fantastic, the vibe is chill and the food is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend! I'd love to come back here for happy hour/dinner.

Full bar with beer, wines, and house cocktails. Beer selection is all macros. They were out of lamb kebab, so I pivoted to the chicken souvlaki. Generous portion which was enough for two meals. A good value at just about $30 once tax and tip are factored in. Chicken is well marinated, so it came out juicy and flavorful. I opted for roasted broccoli and cauliflower as a side. Good char on the vegetables. It also comes with a small house salad. Indoor and outdoor seating. Gender neutral restrooms.

The corn was decent as well. For dessert, they went above and beyond. They surprised us by bringing out cheesecake, and they even brought us an extra slice when I requested it, which made our celebration even more special. Our server and the manager were both excellent, and the staff overall were friendly and welcoming. I really can't say enough positive things about this place. We will definitely be coming back!

We had been eyeing Iron Age in Rego Park for a while and finally decided to give it a try. We were…read morecraving Korean BBQ and it seemed like the right time to go. It is an all you can eat setup for a flat fee of around $30, with roughly 90 minutes to work through as much as you want. I will be honest -- I have mixed feelings about the time limit format. At that point it is not really all you can eat, it is all you can eat within a window. The other consideration is that the meats cook at their own pace in the BBQ pit, which naturally slows things down regardless of how hungry you are. That said, my wife and I were both satisfied by the end of the meal. We ate our fill and left happy, which is ultimately the goal. The food was genuinely good -- good enough that I actually enjoyed this meal more than some of the higher end Korean BBQ spots I have visited. That says something. I will be back. The value is solid and the experience delivered. Though I have to be honest -- nothing in this city touches the hole in the wall Korean BBQ spots in Flushing. Those are in a league of their own.

After more than 25 years of being customers and spending hundreds of dollars per visit, we were…read moreessentially told we had stayed too long after finishing our meal. That was enough for us to decide we will not be returning. I have been coming to this restaurant for over 25 years. The food has generally been good, which is why my family continued returning and recommending it to others. Our history with the restaurant has not been without issues. Years ago, we stopped coming after a Mother's Day incident involving my grandmother. We had been seated in the upstairs dining room (when it was still open), only to later be told by the owner that we did not have a reservation and that we had to leave. After several years, we decided to give the restaurant the benefit of the doubt and eventually started coming back again. Unfortunately, today confirmed that the earlier incident was not simply bad luck. I was dining with my parents. We ordered two steaks, two appetizers, three sides, a bottle of wine and later a second bottle (of which we only drank half), along with four after-dinner drinks, cappuccino, and dessert. It was clearly a very busy day, and service was slower than usual. Because of the restaurant's pace, our meal ended up lasting a little over three hours. We were patient the entire time and never complained. After we finished eating and were simply finishing our drinks, the owner, Marcelo, approached our table and remarked that we had been there for three hours and were now only drinking alcohol, indirectly suggesting that his establishment was not a bar but a place for dining. Considering that we had just spent several hundred dollars and have been customers for decades, the comment was unnecessary and unprofessional. We immediately asked for the check and left. For context, I am a physician and understand the pressures of demanding work environments. However, professionalism and respect toward customers should always come first. Over the years, my family has typically spent between $300 and $500 per visit here. Unfortunately, after this experience, this will be the last time we come. There are many excellent Argentinian and Uruguayan steakhouses where customers are treated with appreciation and respect, and that is where we will be going moving forward. Después de más de 25 años siendo clientes y gastando cientos de dólares por visita, básicamente nos dijeron que nos habíamos quedado demasiado tiempo después de terminar nuestra comida. Eso fue suficiente para decidir que no volveremos. He venido a este restaurante durante más de 25 años. La comida generalmente ha sido buena, lo cual es la razón por la que mi familia y yo seguimos regresando y recomendándolo a otras personas. Nuestra historia con el restaurante no ha estado exenta de problemas. Hace años dejamos de venir después de un incidente en el Día de las Madres que involucró a mi abuela. Ya nos habían sentado en el comedor del segundo piso (cuando todavía estaba abierto), cuando posteriormente el dueño nos informó que no teníamos una reservación y que teníamos que retirarnos. Después de varios años decidimos darle al restaurante el beneficio de la duda y eventualmente comenzamos a regresar nuevamente. Lamentablemente, lo ocurrido hoy confirmó que aquel incidente anterior no fue simplemente mala suerte. Estaba cenando con mis padres. Pedimos dos steaks, dos aperitivos, tres acompañamientos, una botella de vino y luego una segunda botella (de la cual solo bebimos la mitad), además de cuatro digestivos, cappuccino y postre. Claramente era un día muy ocupado en el restaurante y el servicio fue más lento de lo habitual. Debido al ritmo del servicio, nuestra comida terminó durando un poco más de tres horas. Fuimos pacientes todo el tiempo y nunca nos quejamos. Después de terminar de comer y mientras simplemente estábamos terminando nuestras bebidas, el dueño, Marcelo, se acercó a nuestra mesa y comentó que llevábamos allí tres horas y que en ese momento solo estábamos consumiendo alcohol, insinuando indirectamente que su establecimiento no era un bar sino un lugar para cenar. Considerando que acabábamos de gastar varios cientos de dólares y que hemos sido clientes durante décadas, el comentario fue innecesario y poco profesional. Inmediatamente pedimos la cuenta y nos retiramos. Para dar contexto, soy médico y entiendo muy bien las presiones de entornos de trabajo exigentes. Sin embargo, el profesionalismo y el respeto hacia los clientes siempre deben ser una prioridad. A lo largo de los años mi familia normalmente ha gastado entre $300 y $500 por visita en este restaurante. Lamentablemente, después de esta experiencia, esta será la última vez que vengamos. Hay muchos excelentes restaurantes argentinos y uruguayos donde los clientes son tratados con aprecio y respeto, y allí es donde llevaremos nuestro negocio en el futuro.
