I ordered the ribeye that was delicious, but you have to order it medium/ao ponto, as they undercook the meat in Brazil. Accompanied the steak with mashed potatoes and a glass of Catena Malbec. With tip came to $75US--worth it. Same meal in USA would easily be $125. Right around the corner from the Fasano Hotel where I stayed and very nice ambience--cool historic tree as you enter the premises along with a nice bar area and kitchen where you can view them preparing and cooking the steaks.

I fully appreciated the blanket and heaters that were brought over as it was a chilly evening, yet we were still "indoors" but not. Service was impeccable, with every member of the staff ensuring our experience was top notch and food met our expectations. I chose the slowly roasted beef ribs rice and was not expecting savory goodness that arrived! The beef ribs melted in my mouth and the rice was so incredibly flavorful - I would order this over and over again! Of all the restaurants I've been to, Figueira Rubaiyat has by far the one of the most extensive wine list I've seen, featuring many different wines from around the world, including Brazil of course! There is also a gift shop that should not be missed because of the very unique items that are found here - and a place I'll need to visit next time I'm in the area again! The entire experience is one that should not be missed. Every detail and every bite was absolute perfection!

I love several other Churrasacarias in São Paulo, but this one is a real standout. We had a group dinner with friends and coworkers, and we were led to a large table, and the staff fawned all over us. They were very accommodating and friendly. The food and wine were all top-notch, and they brought whatever cut of meat you asked for, instead of waiting for the "good stuff" like the Picanha. The salad bar was great as well, although I was a bit disappointed that they didn't have any Feijoada, which is usually a staple at any Churrascaria in Brazil. Again, there are several good Churrascarias here, but if you want the best, you won't get any better than Barbacoa!

This particular night was my first night in town. I was jetlagged but hungry, so I came by myself to have an easy dinner and some good meat. I have been here several times before, but I always enjoy walking in and taking in the ambiance of the restaurant. Something about Fogo. I was seated immediately and ordered a Caipirinha and the buffet. I waited for my drink, which was excellent, and then headed to the buffet, starting with the salad bar. I headed back to my table, trying to keep my salad to a minuimum as to eat more steak! I turned my disc over to green, and the meat started arriving. I love Picanha, but I know they always hold back, so I have to ask to make sure they bring it. As I ate, the place filled up, and I noticed that every table was full. I ordered another Caipirinha and started to get full, as one does, eating this much meat! I finally turned my disc back to red and asked for the check. Pricey by Brazilian standards, but still cheap to an American. Yes, there are many Churrascarias here, but this one never fails to impress.

It is the weekend and the ubiquitous Brazilian dish is their signature buffet. So everything came to the table! The 10 cuts of meat include bacon, pork chop, oxtail, pig ear, beef tongue, linguica, brisket, ham hock, and pork knuckles. The broth is brimming with collagen--so they offer salsa, hot sauce, and fresh orange slices to resuscitate your palette. Thicken the broth with toasted nut flour if you wish. There's fried sweet banana and yucca, pork rinds and crispy bacon on the side, perfect rice and shredded collard greens. Assuage your guilt with shots of house caipirinha. Think a sweeter margarita on the rocks... The very patient and sweet maitre'd offered me dessert. He's thinks he is so funny! While I have no reference to compare this example to others as it was my first taste of Fejoada, the standard is set immensely high. Not cheap at R150 total bill ($40). But this memory has been seared indelibly into my food coma'd brain. And now I understand why they have such a light dinner. Time for a siesta to recover. !!!
