Another amazing dining experience at Fogo! Decided to get the brunch churrasco service this time and it truly was the best decision! Everything was DELICIOUS. Bacon wrapped chicken, bacon wrapped steak, rib eye, pieces of actual grilled cheese with honey on top (yummmmm), parmesan pork chops, smoked pineapple...my personal favorites were easily the Bottom Sirloin and Spicy Pork Sausage! Also enjoyed the Black Pepper Candied Bacon....mmmmm! And if you like spice, please treat yourself to a side of chiles tornadoes!! Lovely decor and it's pretty calm and quiet inside (because everyone is too busy eating) lol SUPER SPECIAL shout out to Jose!! We lucked up and were seated in "his area". Not only did he remember what we ate the last time, but he also remembered our drinks. IMPRESSIVE to say the least. It was easily a month since my last visit! Already looking forward to the next visit. Pretty sure that I also saved money by signing up for the rewards program. It's worth it! read more

Absolutely delicious!!! We've been to several Brazilian steakhouses, and this one was definitely top-notch! The market table had so many delicious options, and that potato salad was especially amazing! The restaurant itself is VERY loud, so if you're looking for a quiet place to enjoy a conversation, this probably isn't it. My only complaint is that they kept bringing around the same cuts of meat. If you want the higher-end cuts, like ribeye or filet mignon, you have to repeatedly ask for them. For the price you're paying, I feel like those cuts should be offered just as frequently as everything else. I shouldn't have to keep requesting the premium meats when that's part of what I'm paying for! Aside from that, the food was absolutely delicious, and we really enjoyed our experience! read more

Food is always on point. I've hosted company events here and have consistently frequented this place, which is why I'm not going to be too harsh. Went in for lunch and everything started off fine. Someone at our table asked for the bar menu, and although we weren't planning on having a long lunch, we ultimately all decided to go with the churrasco and didn't order anything from the bar menu. The meat servers were on point. They came by quickly and constantly, which is always appreciated at this type of establishment. After a while, though, our waitress stopped checking on the table. We eventually had to ask one of the meat servers to grab her so we could get drink refills. No big deal, things happen, and she came over quickly once we asked. What rubbed me the wrong way was another male server nearby who came over looking visibly annoyed and asked if we needed our server. I told him she had already taken care of us, and he just walked away without saying a word. I'd suggest approaching a table with a little better customer service, especially when the guests are simply trying to enjoy their meal. There was really no reason to bring a poor attitude over to our table. We still tipped 20% because the meat servers worked hard and I didn't want them taking a hit for the overall service. Unfortunately, our waitress didn't seem too concerned either. No thank you or acknowledgment at the end, just dropped off the check and bounced. Still a fan of the food and I've had plenty of good experiences here. Hopefully this was just an off day on the service side. read more

Came to check out their happy hour deals. Towards the beginning our waiter was very attentive and made recommendations. We ordered several items to try different things. The meats were seasoned well and delicious. The drinks were also good and very strong! Towards the end of our time, our original waiter shift ended and our new waitress checked on us once for more drinks but after that, it took an hour for anyone to come by and give us the check. Although the food and drinks were good, the lack of attentive service towards the end of our meal was frustrating. read more

We had to go back for their happy hour menu. Restaurant ambiance is wonderful as always. We sat at a table in front of the bar. The customer service from the bar was a little dry. I'm used to a warmer greeting and feeling more welcomed when my server comes to the table. He was also a little slow. We had to ask for the cheese bread. When he brought it out it had definitely been sitting because it was hard. The rest of the food however was delicious and the prices on their happy hour menu are great!! We had the burger for $10.00. The quality of the meat on that burger for $10.00 is unheard of. The burger was tender, juicy with the perfect blend of seasonings. Those purple onions were sooo good. The portion size is large. The up charge for their fries are worth it. They were crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. They give a lot of fries as well. We also tried the empanadas. I will say the empanadas were dry and the filling was not flavorful. I would not order them again. The beef on those braised beef short rib sliders were so tender!!! I do think the meat was a little salty but still good. The brioche bun was soft without being chewy or falling apart. Overall a good experience but I just want to see a little more consistency. I need to try some of the other locations but I keep coming back here. We were so hungry I forgot to take the pics! read more

I've been coming here for happy hours and service is always great! My go to drink is the Gold Rush and love the cheese bread! On my last visit, Albert served our group which consisted about 22 people and he was very attentive and made sure everyone got what they ordered. Thank you Albert! We definitely love this place for happy hours after a long day of work and will definitely come back! read more

I've been going for lunch to Fogo, not for the buffet but their lunch menu. You get their classic cheese puffs complimentary and may ask for more! The burger is a nice thick patty with standard fixings: red onion, lettuce, tomato. The ingredients are fresh as the lettuce is crisp and the tomato does not bleed. Them red onions are so sweet they make you want to cry and think of Stanley Yelnats, mmm. I like their ranch sauce and the standard dipping sauce that comes with it (tangy something and a combo of mayo and ketchup? Not sure). I will need to come back and try other items read more

Fogo de Chão - My drink was delish too - Steakhouses Near Me - El Segundo, California

Had an awesome lunch at Fogo! Let me start with my favorite which was the sugar bacon! Wow!! 5 out of 5!!! Crispy and so flavorful. My second favorite was the honey cheese!! I had never tried honey on top of cheese. The cheese balls that they give you as an entry are fantastic too! The salad bar even had dragon fruit that was so fresh and good. For 56 dollars a person you get meat and a full salad bar with rice and beans. Our waitress Tatiana was super nice and helpful with our big table of 8. To my surprise they didn't include the tip so we made sure to take care of her. Restaurant is nice and clean and they kept the salad bar full. It was lunch hour so it got busy. Over all top 5! read more

The very first time I tried Fogo de Chao was in Irvine, CA almost 7 years ago. But my last two visits took place in the El Segundo location for the churrasco experience with my family and a solo dining experience for a Sunday lunch (all day happy hour menu). The churrasco experience was highly enjoyable. Access to the buffet - abundant with a variety of options for side veggies, salads, vinaigrettes, fruit and more! And of course, the signature cuts of meat. I don't remember every single meat we had. But I do remember indulging in the sausage, lamb, sirloin cut, garlic steak, bacon-wrapped chicken, and the picanha. My parents particularly enjoyed the lamb and the parmesan crusted pork. The crispy polenta, plantains, and pão de queijo were excellent additions as well - really made a well-balanced dinner. I only had a few of the cheese bread balls, but the rest of my family must have easily cleared 3 baskets. Service was wonderful. My family and I enjoyed our meat at different paces, but even with some our cards with the red 'stop, take a break' side facing up - we never felt like there was any shortage of meat carving and/or customer service. Our servers were lovely and occasionally checked in to make sure we were enjoying our whole meal. They were even kind enough to ask of any special occasions prior to entering our desserts of choice into the POS system. Drinks Purchased [Both were refreshing!]: Passion Caipirinha Strawberry Hibiscus Caipirinha Desserts Purchased: Key Lime Pie (4.6/5) Crème Brûlée (4.3/5) My solo dine-in visit took place a couple of weeks after. I came in closer to noon on a Sunday to try their happy hour menu. But what I really had my eyes on was the $10 Picanha Burger that came with crispy polenta and a delectable orange sauce. I think there's also an available upgrade to yuca fries as well, perhaps I'll try that next time. That burger paired with the glass of the Alamos Malbec was awesome! I'm actually bummed I didn't have room in my stomach to try the other items, but I'll definitely be back to try the $6 empanadas. Overall, El Segundo's Fogo de Chao is a lovely establishment with a high-end feel paired with surprisingly affordable eats. I look forward to coming back! read more

The reason I even considered visiting Fogo de Chão is because of a YouTube channel that I started watching where food vloggers, Bill & Lisa talked about the $18 ayce salad bar during lunch aka Market Table & Feijoada Bar. https://youtu.be/sujJsUXZaU4?si=-osxN98fSYfV4FjT So Meateater Hubby and I decided to check it out in Huntington Beach. We had such a good experience that I decided to visit the El Segundo location the following week for my Dad's birthday. Bought my Dad, Mom, and sister to this El Segundo location and also had a great experience! But since I was at the Huntington Beach location just a week prior, here's a bit of comparison: - This location has a bit more Market Table items - This location has garage parking that is free for 90 minutes with validation. We went past the time a bit and only paid $2 - The lentil soup at this location tasted yummier! This one had spinach wilted in the soup, and the flavor stood out more. Plant-based proteins such as lentil soup filled me up. I also appreciated the chickpea, edamame, and black bean salad. Other fresh produce included salad greens, tabbouleh, cucumbers, pickled onions, asparagus, broccoli, marinated mushrooms, hearts of palm, beets, capers, olives (green and Kalamata), peppadew, and Peruvian drop peppers. As for roasted vegetables, there was cauliflower, zucchini, eggplant, artichoke hearts, peppers, apple & butternut squash, and a cabbage stir-fry. Fresh fruit included papaya, kiwi, yellow pineapple, pink pineapple, blood oranges, and dragonfruit. The one area I wish were better was that there was a single disabled parking spot right in front of the restaurant, which would have been helpful for my elderly parents. But apparently it's only for valet use. Why does the valet need to park that close? What's the point of valet when it's that close? Overall, a good experience and delicious meal. Also, they comped a dessert for my Dad for his birthday which was super nice. We came back a few months later for my sister's birthday, and I ordered the Seared Tofu with chimichurri. Pretty legit! read more

The service was good from beginning to end I was seated very swiftly party of 2. Waiter came over immediately to take our preferred package options and directed us to the salad bar which is very good might I add. I sat on the booth side which had a back pillow (bonus). Only 3 downsides the drinks were pretty weak and pricey, and I wasn't offered any form of water besides the $9 blue bottle of water in which I paid and was good however I should've been offered a glass of free ice water for the price you pay to dine here. 3rd downside is parking there is none so valet is the only option available. Other than that great location, great service and I'll be back with my fiancée again for sure! read more

Big fan of the restaurants, Beverly Hills location is our regular spot. First time at El Segundo location and it was nightmare. Not enough handicap parking available in front of the restaurant. Waitress does not explain menu when seated. Tables are absolutely cramped. Nature of the business requires many of the staff members to move around and our chairs were being touched every five minutes for the first half of the meal. Once that was over we were waiting for 15-20 minutes for them to bring out the meat. We gave up eventually and asked for check. Of course that took them more than 20min, I ended up walking to the counter. Dessert were asked to be Togo and it was just thrown into containers and could not recognize what it was when we opened it . Table cleaners get sprayed right next to us when other guests left and I could feel the cleaning spay landing on my hand. Had to trash food... Not sure why it can be applied closer to the table or even on the towel. Fruit flies were hanging out at the salad bar, I had to inform the staff but bar foods didn't get swapped out when I went back to it. Worst experience, not worth the price. It felt like over priced market place. There are far better choices and service around el Segundo. read more

We had another excellent meal and experience here. One of us took advantage of the dineLA $65 special which included dessert and the other took advantage of the $25 off a full churrasco dinner Fall special. We enjoyed the flavors of the various meats and I loved the grilled cheese with honey. Our server William and the gauchos were very kind, personable, and attentive and came around often with outstanding service. This is my preferred location. read more

I love Brazilian BBQ and I must say that for me Fogo de Chao is the best :) We have been here 3 times since December and each visit has been an equally outstanding experience. From the friendly service & classically decorated dining room to the delicious food. Everything is 5-Stars!! On the most recent visit we were celebrating my Sons Birthday. We both had the Churrasco Experience which includes all you can eat from the Market Bar and a continuous selection of over 12 fire roasted meats brought to your table. As tempting as it is don't fill up on the Market Bar because one easily could and be happy. TIP: Join the rewards program for great discounts. This time we had half-off one meal & a free desert! The also have a great cocktail bar with a large selection of Brazilian cocktails. I had a Strawberry Hibiscus Caipirinha and my Son ordered a glass of very good Chardonnay from the solid wine list. Mine was so good I had to have a couple LOL After eating soooo much food, special shout out to the pork belly w/ honey drizzle & the lamb chops, We were confronted with the choice of any desert from the menu. I strongly recommend the Cheesecake Brulee which one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had! There is valet parking at the door and free validated parking in the structure next door. No street parking is available. read more

Went to Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse this past Saturday with my brother and his girlfriend (my lil sis ) before heading to the movies, and overall we had such a great experience! They both absolutely LOVED it, and I was so happy we chose this spot for dinner. The food was amazing -- hot, fresh, flavorful, and constantly coming around. We did the $78 all-you-can-eat meat experience, and the servers wasted NO time bringing different selections to our table. There were always staff members nearby checking in on us and making sure we were taken care of, which made the experience feel very attentive and welcoming. Customer service overall was exceptional. We also had reservations and thankfully didn't have to wait long at all to get seated. We were sat outside with the heat lamps, and honestly they felt AMAZING. We barely even noticed the cold breeze because the outdoor seating setup was so comfortable. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because there were a couple inconsistencies with the drinks from the bar. My brother accidentally received the wrong cocktail at first (he ordered the Caramelized drink but was given a Sunrise instead), and the strawberry hibiscus alcoholic drinks that me and my lil sis ordered tasted noticeably different from each other during our second round. Hers tasted really good while mine tasted a little... perfumery? lol Of course different bartenders make drinks differently, but I just wish there was a bit more consistency there. Other than that, the overall dining experience was wonderful and definitely worth it for a fun night out! read more

Tonight we had the Wagyu NY Steak and the Rainbow Carrots accompanied by Chiles Torreados. So happy and fulfilled. There is nothing better than a well seasoned steak with plenty of flavor, refined water, and superb alcoholic beverages. We tried the passionate and strawberry hibiscus Caipirinha, passionate is better than strawberry hibiscus. Service was phenomena. We were treated like family by Marily and Melisa. Anthony was very kind as well! read more

Awesome experience! Marilly was a great server. We had a wonderful family time at Fogo de Chão.

We had a fantastic experience at Fogo de Chão El segundo! Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. The lamb picanha, chicken, and pork were all perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of flavor. One of our favorite bites was the grilled cheese with honey,it was the perfect combination of sweet and savory and definitely a must-try. The service made our visit even better. Manager Oscar was incredibly polite, friendly, attentive, and professional. He checked on us throughout our meal, made sure everything was perfect, and genuinely cared that we had a great dining experience. His hospitality truly stood out and made us feel so welcome. Great food, outstanding service, and a wonderful atmosphere. We'll definitely be coming back and highly recommend Fogo de Chão to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience! read more

I have not been in this location in awhile. 2026 review. Went here for a work function. We all opted in to get the all you can eat meat and salad bar, $78 per person. No complaints on the food. The meats served were absolutely delicious! The meats were all so very good. Chicken, lamb, cow, and pig did not dissapoint! It all really comes down how much a person can really eat. The salad bar was absolutely fulfilling. After I got tired of the meats I went to the salad bar. Salad bar was great. Great salad servings with fish, salmon, figs, eggplants etc. You cant go wrong either way. Only one complaint. Bathrooms were dirty. They can use some help on that department. It did not feel clean. Overall, this place is outstanding! read more

Came here for lunch to celebrate Dad's birthday. Only Dad added a meat option and had Picanha. The 3 of us got the all you can eat Market Table. Parking is a little walk to the front of the restaurant, we should have dropped Dad off at the front but he insisted on walking. I walked ahead to put our name in for a table, they said we had to wait until the whole party was there. We were greeted by a friendly host and I informed her we were celebrating a birthday. We were seated fairly quickly and our server came by to pour water. There was an insect floating in my water, so she removed all the glasses and brought us new ones. The Market Table had plenty of choices of salads, fruits, cheeses, charcuterie, veggies, soup and feijoada. Everything was delicious! The gauchos came around a couple of times for Dad's Picanha, which he enjoyed. Our server could have been a little more attentive. She came to fill our water once and failed to fill mine. I had to track someone else down. Dad was offered dessert for his birthday, which we asked to take home. Food was good, ambiance was good, friendly employees. read more

What happened to my third favorite restaurant on earth? Look at all my reviews. I'm the furthest thing from bougie, needy, or demanding. Two stars because the happy hour menu "looked" pretty good, only got to try one thing. -3 stars because there is no reason why, on a Wednesday, when we're the only 2 people at the bar and there are 2 bartenders and what looked like a manager walking by us, staring at us for 30 minutes while our glasses have been empty and waiting to order food. One of the bartenders finally came by and noticed saying, "I'll be right back to take your order." God knows what was important in the empty restaurant, only to return and stare at us for another 10 minutes? Everyone looked miserable. It's not my job to flag you down every time I need something. My cousin gave zero tip for the first time in his life. C'mon guys. read more

I took my neighbors to Fogo de Chao for a birthday celebration. I've had very positive experiences at the various locations of Fogo de Chao, from Dallas to Beverly Hills to Huntington Beach, so I had high expectations at this El Segundo location. The El Segundo location is a nice venue located on the main floor of an office complex. The location follows the same rich and beautiful theme decor similar to all their other locations. Parking is a little bit of a pain as it is quite a distance from the office building parking structure to the front door. They do offer valet parking at the front door for those that want to forego the walk. The food at this location is excellent as expected. Their Market Table gave us a great variety of cold items. The gauchos were prompt with the high quality meats that were well seasoned, prepared and absolutely delicious. The complimentary cheese rolls were also devilishly addictive. The birthday creme brulee hit the spot to complete a wonderful meal. The main disappointment came from the service aspect at this location. We were promptly seated at our table but had no one come to us for at least 10-15 minutes. It wasn't until I flagged down a random staff member -- who noticed we hadn't even been served water in all that time -- that anything happened. She was friendly and helpful, got us set up with water, and explained the menu even though it wasn't her station. She even brought us some cheese rolls while letting the person actually responsible for our table know we needed service. It took another 10-15 minutes before we decided to just get up and serve ourselves at the Market Table without having our order taken. As we browsed the Market Table, it was clear the staff were struggling to keep it stocked -- there were always a few items missing, whether it was the prosciutto, the bread, candied bacon, or the mixed greens. It wasn't until our actual server saw our menus still sitting untouched at the table that they realized we'd already started our meal from the Market Table ourselves. Aside from the roaming gauchos, who were always around, I'm not sure if the wait staff were just shorthanded, but unfortunately it set a bad tone for a birthday celebration that overshadowed what was otherwise a wonderful meal. read more

I was brought here on a date a few months ago. It had been on my list for a long time. Unfortunately, my dinner was somewhat disappointing. We had a reservation and had to wait outside for about 15 minutes while our table became available. Once it became available, we were instructed to serve ourselves at the salad bar and once we were ready to start, we could turn our placard to green for the servers to carve the meat. There were several cuts of meat that were fatty, and some that were too raw for my liking. Truly, there were only 2-3 meats I actually liked. Picanha was nowhere to be found and I held out for it as long as I could. I really had my hopes up for Fogo. read more

Baseline: For a sit down semi-casual restaurant is the quality of the food, existence of any unique offerings, quality of the service, and value of the overall dining experience. Food: Brazilian churrasco was great today! We stuck with Single Churrasco Cuts this visit which will fill you up. Piranha and Fraldinha for beef and I would say the Fraldinha meats made it around more frequently. We also had a dry-aged Tomahawk Ribeye for the table which had a great fat content and delicious seasoned crust to the steak. The Full Churrasco is the way to go if you are hungry so you can get the parade of different meats. The Market Bar and Feijoada bar was full of different food items and was super satisfying. Service: Great service from all the staff for our dining experience. Ambiance: Fogo de Chao was clean and the table/seating was well organized. read more

They will have you trying all of the exotic meats from Beef, Lamb, Chicken and Pork. Good service and all. Nice location near the beach. read more

Came to celebrate our anniversary, Upon arrival, we were seated by the door to the patio. I didn't mind it too much, but throughout the meal I kept getting hit with the smell of a wet cloth as servers were constantly going to the stand near us. It definitely took a while to receive any meat--it seemed like they wanted us to fill up on the sides first. I would say it took at least 15 minutes. After the sides came out, we asked for meat since they kept skipping. At one point I was served something I learned that day was called "blue," meaning it wasn't fully cooked. The outside is quickly seared for just a few seconds per side. It was definitely an experience. The server was very persistent about encouraging me to try it, insisting I would like it, but after the first bite I immediately knew it wasn't my cup of tea. He seemed a little disappointed, but to each their own. Suggestions are always appreciated--just maybe without looking so heartbroken! With all that blood, I swear I could see the heartbeat. read more

I have been at Fogo in several locations in La, Southern California and even in Miami... but never been a a special gathering as this, we were six in a table and included a fix menu of three courses. It was hosted by Woodford Reserve that offered several shoots and one cocktail from the brand. There was music since we arrived to the saloon where the event was hosted inside the Restaurant. Marco and Griselda the Fogo's hosts where awesome and we genuinely enjoy the whole event... the menu was part of the extensive offer from Fogo, excellent meat in a lovely ambiance. Surely I'll be back for another of these innovative events... look for them. read more

This place was amazing, from the time we arrived to the very end. All nine of us arrived and were seated within minutes. We said we would have all-you-can-eat. And boy was it all you can eat. We had every meat they offered and loved every piece of meat we could get our hands on.LOL.... The bar salad had many choices to pick from. The all-you-can-eat doesn't include Drinks, Dessert, and other specialty items on the menu. The atmosphere was busy, noise level was surprisingly low for a restaurant full of hungry humans. Beautifully decorated.Highly recommend this restaurant. They have Valet parking, Skip it. You'll wait 10-15 minutes standing around waiting for your car. Don't be lazy and walk to your car, it's faster than Valet, and you'll save some ridiculous Fee. read more

We have come to this Fogo de Chão a few times! Always a different experience, but we leave full and satisfied! This Fogo de Chão location is visible from Rosecrans Ave. There is valet parking with varying prices in front or a self-parking garage with 90 minutes free. The best bang for your buck is the Churrasco Experience! It's all you can eat (AYCE)! Included in the price are the meats, Market Table, & sides. Items that are included that you can request are the cheese with honey and grilled pineapple with brown sugar. Both are so good! When we come on Sundays for the Brunch, there's also an Omelet Station. TIP: If you have a Sam's Club or Costco Membership, you can buy a $100 eGift Card for $79.98 (Sam's Club) or $79.99 (Costco). Must buy online and you will get an email with the eGift Card numbers. Be sure to join Fogo Rewards if you plan on dining a few times a year. It is worth it! You get to choose which reward you want from three options. The Gaucho Chefs carve the meat so fast I have a hard time taking pictures and then later trying to remember what I was eating! There are discs on the table. One side is red, the other is green. Flip the disc to green if you want more meat and red if you don't. On our latest visit on Oct. 26, 2025, I requested the hot sides (Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Caramelized Plantains & Crispy Polenta, and Pão de Queijo) to be brought out after we had made a trip to the market table and acquired some meat but they brought them all out right away. I dislike them getting cold on the table while we are away. Anyways... The Churrasco Experience includes a nice variety of meats. My favorite is the Lamb. We both love the Picanha (top sirloin), Bone-in Ribeye, Fraldinha (bottom sirloin), Filet, & Medalhes com Bacon. The favorite is the Bone-in Ribeye. If there are certain cuts of meats you want but the aren't making it to your table, you can ask the staff. You can also request Med. Rare if that's how you like it. Most of the meats that came to our table during our latest visit were Well Done and we don't like meat cooked that much!! We flagged down a staff member and they eventually brought out meat to our liking. Good to know! This is my birthday month, so we need to go again! They sent me $25 off a Full Churrasco. read more

I always try to support local restaurants, but this experience was not acceptable. We came with 4 people and ordered the full churrasco, but after more than an hour, we only received 3 different meats. I honestly started wondering if I even ate any meat at all. We asked four times because no meat was being served to our table, and each time we were told, "We'll send the gaucho," but nothing changed. If you're looking for a nice lunch or dinner experience, I would recommend going somewhere else that truly cares about their customers. read more

I've been to Fogo de Chao in Irvine and even though this restaurant seems smaller, it seemed more spacious and easier to walk around the Market Table. Or maybe Irvine just squished in more tables and chairs. I was here for a birthday party and I don't know if that had anything to do with it but service was excellent. Staff was very attentive. They even came around towards the end asking if there was any particular meat we hadn't seen yet. We took advantage of the valet parking but there's also a parking structure in the next building. read more
