Great for happy hour! Ask for Jose to be your waiter, best customer service. Recommended a great wine.

Luis and Lucas were amazing. Will be coming back! Great vibes and table side service. Everything cooked perfectly. Don't skip dessert!

JOSE was SUPER nice and the service was groundbreaking. I would definitely come again. This place is transcendent. Fabulous pictures

Fogo de Chão - DTLA (Weekday Lunch) FOOD Damn--they serve authentic Lamb Chops! Many restaurants tone down the characteristic flavor of lamb because a lot of people don't like that distinct taste. But Fogo's lamb chops stayed impressively close to the original flavor. Thank you, Fogo! Next time I come here, I may just order the lamb chops and nothing else. Their Picanha was also very good. Their Black Beans were delicious. My co-worker pointed out that there was meat in them--I honestly didn't notice. So it probably wasn't full Feijoada, but rather black beans with a bit of meat added to enhance the flavor. Either way, they were excellent. Our server suggested adding Chimichurri on the side for the black beans, and that was a fantastic recommendation. Absolutely delicious. Thank you, miss! I also loved their Mashed Potatoes. And of course, the famous Brazilian Cheesebread! Love it! (Be sure to ask for it. Because ours came towards the end of the dinner.) DÉCOR & FOOD PRICE The décor was just so-so--not as nice as H&H Brazilian. However, Fogo's all-you-can-eat churrasco costs significantly less. H&H was $73 per person when I went last December, while Fogo's weekday lunch was only $55. That difference definitely matters. DRINKS The drink prices were also a pleasant surprise. A glass of South American Chardonnay was only $8, and their Clean Cosmos (a mocktail) was around the same price. Our server brought us bottled spring water, which cost $8.50. I don't recall being asked whether we wanted tap or bottled water, but times are hard and I want them to stay in business. DESSERT You may not even need dessert--the fried plantains are included as part of the all-you-can-eat churrasco, and they're a satisfying sweet finish. SERVICE Except for one grumpy gaúcha (meat server), everyone was wonderful--from the hostess, to our pleasant server, to the nice gaucho. As for the grumpy gaúcha, she probably just had a bad day. I hope things improve for her. PARKING Just Uber. Or take Lyft. The parking structure where we parked was absolutely godforsaken. SUMMARY Overall, I'm happy with this place. Good food, fair pricing, and authentic Brazilian flavors--especially those lamb chops. I'll definitely be back. RESERVATIONS I recommend making reservations. Because the place was full during our visit. You may do so via Open Table. read more

Dissatisfied&Disappointed. Don't visit this location if you want the Fogo de Chao experience that's advertised. Went here on Mother's Day: 1. Our server couldn't explain the menu (food or drinks). We ordered, she wrote it down, repeated then left. Another server came to our table to explain the menu, and retaken our order which was frustrating and aggravating. 2. When I checked my bill the next day, someone adjusted the tip to a higher amount! 3. The meats were great. The cheese and honey was awesome. The bartenders were great, and even the host were polite. The server that could barely speak to us left me feeling bad for her working in the restaurant on a holiday. Then when I saw that my tip had been adjusted to a higher amount I feel sabotaged and let down by this brand. read more

If you're seeking an unforgettable dining experience, head to Fogo's Los Angeles location. My wife and 12-year-old daughter and I had an exceptional time there. It was hands down the best steakhouse experience I've had, even better than other Fogo de Chao's. The food was, as always, delicious and amazing! We tried every meat they offered, and they didn't skimp on the portions. The meat kept coming! And let me tell you, the grilled cheese with honey was heavenly. I'm not a big fan of honey, but it elevated the grilled cheese to a whole new level of goodness. Their customer service was simply outstanding! I was surprised to learn that Fogo had a dedicated customer service supervisor for each shift. We had the pleasure of meeting A D, who was truly exceptional. He made our visit exceptional and personalized by building a relationship with us. A D went above and beyond, taking our conversations to a personal level, making my daughter feel like the center of attention, and checking in with us at the perfect times. I've never experienced anything like this before at any restaurant. If you visit Fogo Los Angeles, make sure to ask for A D. The rest of the staff was great, but two others also went above and beyond. Gaucho Elda was incredibly polite, friendly, and helpful, while Gaucho Gio ensured that my daughter's food was to her liking and even made a piece of filet the way she prefers it. Unlike Elda and Gio, no one else asked questions before serving us. As always, The Market Table was filled with delicious food and kept spotless. I noticed a few new items since my last visit. The restaurant was clean and had a perfect atmosphere. A D, Elda, and Gio, thank you for going above and beyond and making us feel so welcome! The restaurant needs more of you! read more

Last Saturday, March 7th, I had dinner at Fogo de Chão with seven members of my group. And yesterday, Tuesday, March 10th, I went back again for lunch with My Mom. I had heard from friends that if you only use the salad bar during the weekday lunch special, it costs $18. Since the salad bar was so delicious and impressive when we had dinner there last Saturday, I decided to try it for lunch. One thing I especially like about this place is their flexibility. I arrived earlier than My Mom and the staff asked me whether I would like to sit at the table and wait or wait until my mother arrived before being seated. She gave me the choice, which I really appreciated.(Last Saturday, too). Some restaurants make you wait until the entire party has arrived before they will seat you, but here they asked and gave me the option, which I thought was very considerate and nice. I really like it. The salad bar is truly amazing. These days prices are going up everywhere, and even gas prices are so high, so it was really nice to be able to enjoy the entire salad bar for this price during the lunch special. There were cheeses, a charcuterie board, lentil soup, fresh salads, various fruits, roasted eggplant, squash, and many other items. Everything was really delicious. However, one thing I noticed is that as soon as you sit down, they bring a bottle of sparkling water to the table. I went to the restroom and when I came back, it was already on the table. A little later, the waitress came over and asked if it was okay. Since they had already placed it on the table and asked if it was okay, it felt awkward to say no, so I said "sure." But that sparkling water is an additional $8.35 charge. But, it's ok. I like Sparkling water. Last Saturday night, including the tip, I paid a total $110. Yesterday at lunch, with just the salad bar for $18, plus tip and the sparkling water, the total came to $34. (Per person). Overall, it was a very satisfying lunch. Everything at the salad bar was delicious--especially the roasted bananas and the cheese bread they brought to the table, which were really good. All of the staff were very friendly as well. I especially liked how quickly they cleared the finished plates from the table. After I finished the sparkling water, they kept refilling my regular water, which was very attentive and nice. If I have the time and the opportunity, I would definitely go back again. read more

What can I say about this restaurant other than it was excellent!!! We sat as soon as we came in and our server came right away and gave us our water and drinks. And as far as food well I loved it!!! We had such an amazing time here. Ambiance was everything ! I do have to say that we were very happy dining here. I must say that we felt very much at home here. Everyone was attentive ! Manager by the name of AD was one of best managers we've ever met! He came around and made sure everything was good! He was talkative and just has a wonderful personality! I would come back just because he was that good! I highly recommend this restaurant! read more

I has another great time here. They were very accommodating for my birthday when I showed up without a reservation. They gave me a great seat. Jordan and Debora were both great and I appreciated them refilling my drink and bringing over warm pao de queijo quickly. Everything looked and tasted fresh. I recommend the cheesecake brûlée if you have room. read more

Fogo de Chão - Chessecake brûlée - Steakhouses Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been to other locations and this was my first time at this location. We were seated right away for Valentine's Day weekend even though one of our guests was running late. It was nice of them to still seat us. We were greeted within 10min of sitting. When our 3rd guest arrived they took our drink order. Me and one guest got our drinks promptly but one drink was missing and we had to let two people know we were still missing one drink. The people bringing the meats were fine at serving in the beginning but somehow slowed down and then didn't show up. We had our cards faced up on green so not sure why they stopped coming to us. We were looking around wondering if meats were still being served. We then asked someone if we can request pichana, they said yes and still nobody came by. Asked another person again and still nobody came by. We were getting frustrated at this point and had to ask yet another person and it finally came. At this point we were still hungry but over it. We spent $120 per person here. I think we deserved better service. Restaurant is clean but due to this service, I probably wouldn't come back to this location. read more

I dined her with a large group. Having arrived early I sat at the bar to wait for others. The bartender had an attitude and asked me, "Are you going to order anything?" The bar area was almost empty. So I asked if he could make an Irish Coffee and he said he could. After I ordered another person placed an order and he engaged the customer in a lengthy discussion about a sports event. He finally said, "Wait until I finish with this guy over here," referring to me. I should have left at that point. He finally handed me my drink. No whipped cream, cold coffee, glass only 1/3rd full. He took my credit card from the counter and rang up a charge that was sky high. Double what would have been customary. I got the card receipt after I had already finished off the drink in (literally) two sips. He had the nerve to ask me if I wanted another. He got zero tip and gave me an attitude look. My recommendation - if you dine there, stay away from the bar!! As for dinner it was very nice. The cuts of beef, lamb and chicken were cooked perfectly and were exceptionally seasoned. Service was very friendly and attentive. We also had access to the buffet, but I was a little turned off watching one customer taking Cesar salad out of the bowl with my bare hands. I asked the waiter if there was anymore and was told no. So I passed on the salad. The rice and beans smelled good except the beans were cold. The rest of the buffet was well stocked and offered selections for everyone. This was the first time I've dined at a 'Fogo restaurant and I'm sure I'll dine at another one in the future. But sometimes bad experience can ruin an entire meal. The bartender's attitude and the customer's hands in the salad were disgusting and totally turned off any sense of enjoyment I expected. Parking is valet and I parked across the street in a lot that was convenient and cost half as much. The restaurant is in a vibrant part of DTLA. But traffic conditions at 5:30 pm were horrible. For example I had to make a right and immediate left and cars would not yield for me. When I finally turned a car in cross traffic laid into his horn didn't stop until I finished my turn. If you understand I'm talking about weekday rush hour, well, I am. Just a consideration. read more

Fogo de Chão - Steakhouses Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here to celebrate our anniversary with my partner . Our Brazilian or Latin American waitress was surface level nice . I used to work in downtown LA and definitely gave the you don't belong here vibes. Aside from the food was amazing . The meats were nice juicy and tender without the overwhelming seasoning. What I assume was the floor manager honestly made our night by constantly checking in on us along with other staff asking if we wanted more drinks . The waitress took my plate without asking if I was done. I'm currently pregnant so I take breaks in between my meals since I get full faster than usual. The floor manager asked if we were celebrating anything and brought us a complimentary dessert. We honestly were full to order anymore , but she was personal about our celebratory dinner. Thank you !! made it special and the reason we didn't give a minimum tip for the initial judgemental service . Other than that everyone was nice to even the staff picking up my coat falling off my chair . read more

My girlfriend and I had dinner at Fogo de Chao in dtla. Interesting location on the corner at Figueroa. We had the full dinner experience. Salad bar, and the Brazilian barbecue meats brought to the table. Everything was good and we enjoyed the dinner. The rib was somewhat overcooked for the first round but better for the 2nd round. Lamb was slightly gamey the first round but tasted better the 2nd round as well. We've eaten at several different Fogo de chao locations and it's interesting to me that there's often quite a bit of variation between locations. I would rate this location as middle of the road. Slower than average rate of proteins coming to the table and some items repeated frequently while others we had to specifically ask for them to be brought out. I'd return. read more

We are very disappointed, mislead and embarrassed in front of the other people. We feel degraded about this incident. We didn't expect to be treated this way. We were celebrating the friend's birthday, it should be happy celebration for us but we experienced disappointment. Someone approached us already regarding misunderstanding of the serving of the food. We already understand the information they convey & we already informed the staff that we are willing to pay additional charges if needed. However, it is rude because they approached and informed us thrice with the same information. As if we don't understand. All the staffs are staring on us & other guest tables. We didn't enjoyed the food because we are already bothered. read more

I always have an exceptional experience at Fogo de Chão in DTLA, and AD and Jose are a huge part of why I keep coming back. They are personable, genuine, incredibly knowledgeable, and consistently attentive without ever feeling overbearing. Great conversation and amazing recommendations on new key items. The food is always excellent, fresh, and plentiful, but what truly sets this place apart is the level of service. JD and Jose go above and beyond to create a memorable experience for you and your family every single time. I can't recommend this location enough, I genuinely come back because of them. Hands down, they are the best and true professionals in every sense. read more

Fogo was disappointing, which was a bummer because I was really looking forward to it. I know it's the holiday season and things are busy, but the experience fell short. We had a 6:30 reservation and weren't seated until 7:00, even though walk-ins were being quoted just 20 minutes. Service was inconsistent. Our mashed potatoes never arrived until we were already finished, refills only came after we asked (and even then were forgotten), and the salad bar wasn't well stocked given how busy it was. The meats were fine, but nothing memorable. Overall, it just wasn't the experience I remembered , I recall it being much better in the past. read more

I am in town visiting my granddaughter and she requested fogo de chao for lunch. Neither of us have been before and we looked forward to enjoying the salad bar together. However, after arriving and being seated, we were informed that today there will be dinner prices only. This means that instead of $20, the salad bar was nearly $40 per person. As a grandfather on a fixed income, this is outrageous. We were so upset that we stormed out and my granddaughter cried. They said that since today is a holiday that is the reason for the increased price. Last time I checked New Year's eve is not a federal holiday. They have lost two customers for life today. AVOID THIS PLACE at all costs, do not support their greed and exploitation. read more

Fogo de Chão - $40 bucks at lunch is highly unethical - Steakhouses Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My thoughts: This is a traditional classic Brazilian restaurant that is been around the Los Angeles area through out the up and down of the economy. And any restaurant can survive the harsh business world is A OK in my book. Plus they do serve good steak food and maintain a reasonable price. Here is my scoring card for this restaurant: 1) Location: ( 5 Point ) - Great location for customer to see and find. Great parking for street parking and back side with parking lot parking. 2) Decoration : (2 Point) - They still have the original decoration. Clean and up to date 3) Price: ( 4 point)- The price is competitive but still a little bit pricey compare to other same stars and type food they serve 4) Quality and Taste : ( 3 point)- The quality is ok, food taste is good and portions are average . 5) Type of cuisine standard : ( 4 point) - The style of steak food they serve is pretty close to the way it was prepare in Brazil. Not bad! But some dishes did have slightly modify to cater the customer's need Overall it's not bad and I thinks it's great to give it a try and let me know what you think. Go foodie Note: I didn't go with the buffet style instead went to the tomahawk steak and lobster tower. read more

The blonde hostess on 5/15 at 8:50pm was so rude. It was very obvious she cannot work when it's busy. Upon entering we see and hear her tell a group of people to move out of her way due to how crowded it was and there being no where to stand. That already rubbed me the wrong way because a simple excuse me guys would've suffice. That wasn't even my person experience. My reservation was at 8:45pm due to finding parking I checked in at 8:50 and she said there would be a wait time which I asked how long. Her reply was I have no say all these people are waiting and it's "FIRST COME FIRST SERVE" but in a dismissive attitude tone. so I asked even with reservation?? She said everyone all 100 people had the same reservation time and to move out to the side very dismissive and rude so I asked for a manager her respond was "he's going to tell you the same thing" I said that's fine he can tell me but I'd like to speak to him she then smacked her lips and rolled her eyes and said something smart under her breathe as she was walking away she then brought the other hostess instead of the manager and she was a little bit more understanding but very rude and tried to his messed me as well thankfully manager had us sat right away but their whole demeanor and interaction threw off our appetite. As for our waiter/waitress they were amazing and checking in on us constantly bringing our drinks, sides, and appetizers at an effecient time despite them being over crowded read more

The food was excellent, our waitress was great and very nice. It was definitely packed for Valentine's Day but I felt that the meat made the rounds very well and efficiently. The only thing I will say that really bothered me is that every single table had a special, heart shaped go/stop card... except ours. I was with my partner, so she didn't give us one because we were gay? My guess is that she didn't want to assume but it was Valentine's Day? If I worked there, I would assume everyone that was there was on a date with a loved one. It still was a very lovely dinner but I do have to say, that really did bothered me. read more

Just Oh my God, you have to go to Fogo, you just have to. It is pricey so save up if needed and have the best time. It is great for all occasions and special occasions. Make a reservation as it can get crowded. The place itself is beautiful and looks brand new. It is spotless. It is also super comfortable and you won't feel rushed. The art is great, the entire vibe is great. The food is some of the best. This is our second visit and it just does not fail. The service is perfect and you will be taken care of. The food comes out as ordered, cooked as you want it and just lovely in every way. Our server was so kind. He knew everything about the menu and the food, I mean everything and boy do they have a great wine list. I think they have a full bar. All of their food is great. You just can't go wrong. I was starving and had the Full Churrasco. It is this combination of great meats that made Fogo famous. It is an experience and you are so well cared for. It includes tableside carvings of the best Brazilian cuts like signature Picanha (prime part of top sirloin), Fraldinha (bottom sirloin), the most wonderful Roasted Chicken, Bone-in Ribeye, Filet, and Lamb Chops. You get so much I am sure I left something out. It also comes with great sides. My husband had the Wagyu Ancho (Ribeye) cooked rare and it was magical. He loved it. It was perfect. It is made for sharing for a table of 4. There was 3 of us so our dogs were in heaven with a lot of meat. My grandson was with us so we all shared and ordered a lot of sides. Some of the must try sides are the Butter battered Lobster and the crab cakes. They are so great. Also, their lobster mashed potatoes are some of the best ever and their crab asparagus is just the best. Now, we spent a lot of money, but you don't have to go crazy, one of the dishes I mentioned will take care of several people, but get some more sides. Have the best time. read more

Absolutely my favorite Brazilian steakhouse. Easy walk from my place and it's always amazing. My mom and I are obsessed with the cheese bread and grilled cheese with honey. Would eat them all day long if I could. This time around, I was celebrating my anniversary with my bf so we got the full experience but my parents and I often get the special (which tends to exclude ribeye and lamb chops). I like how you can request a specific dish to come out if you preferred it. I'm not a salad person so I'm not too big on the salad bar, just a personal thing. My recommendation, for your first time, I think it's good to try everything but if you really want your moneys worth, the penchetta, filet minon, and sirloin (and ribeye if you get the full experience). Fogo de Chão was amazing with the tres leches cake, complimentary for our anniversary. We really appreciate it, thank you so much! read more

I can't believe I just discovered Fogo's happy hour! It's available all day, every day at the bar or patio. While the happy hour menu doesn't feature many vegetarian options, that's fine--after all, you go to Fogo for the meat! The portion sizes are impressive and reasonably priced. Where else can you find a delicious picanha burger with fries for just $10? Some of my other favorites include the blistered cheese with honey, lamb lollipops, the filet mignon board, and chicken sliders. I would skip the empanadas, as they were a bit lacking in flavor. I've also gone to fogo for their lunch & dinner service and thoroughly enjoyed my meal. read more

First time to this restaurant and location, although my husband has been here countless times. Came on a Saturday evening and got seated right away. Food was amazing. There is a stark difference between Fogo de Chao and other Brazilian steakhouses and I've been to a few others. It was such a quality experience, everything from the cheese bread, to platanos, meats, and salad bar were top notch. The service at this location was 5 stars! (I'd give more if I could.) Our server was Andrew and he was very kind and made our experience very special. Everyone else was so courteous, especially the churrasqueiros. It was a wonderful experience! There's valet parking across the street in the designated garage for $10. Or if you plan to go shopping after, parking at Fig at 7th is an option, too . read more
