This chain conglomerate was not my choice. I was meeting friends at this restaurant. While I had a good time, laughing and drinking, the only memorable dish were the empanadas. I liked them a lot. The meat? I don't remember much about the meat, which I guess is the staple of this joint. The space is beautiful, though, and the service is excellent. However, if you're in NYC, why the hell would you eat at a chain restaurant?

Feeling hungry after a nice stroll at the MoMA? Well, directly across the street from the museum is Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse. Just because it's a steakhouse in mid-town Manhattan doesn't mean you have to break the bank. Fogo has one thing on the menu that should fit the bill: Market Table & Feijoada Bar. OYCE for $20 if you come during their lunch hours which are 11:30-3pm during weekdays and 11:30-2pm on weekends. The salad bar was splendid. I must have sampled at least 90% of their offerings. Everything was so colorful, delish and healthful, making me relatively guilt-free while committing gluttony. There were so many recipes I rarely have the opportunity to experience, yet here they were - all at the same bar. I particularly enjoyed the roasted zucchini, pickled tomato, greens with roasted pears, and persimmons. For those who require animal protein, smoked salmon and chicken salad were available, as well as pork at the Feijoda bar. Speaking of which, I wasn't a fan of that section. The Feijoda was too salty while the lentil soup was too bland. The ambiance was elegant and staff were professional. There were a few issues for me personally: none of the staff replenishing the food spoke English, they had to correct my bill twice, and the person who answered my call was scripted and mechanical - I might as well talk to a bot.

I went to Fogo de Chão for the first time in years and it is just as good as when I had it back then! The staff were so attentive and the ambiance was a cozy, dim environment. The food was perfectly seasoned and prepared. The bone-in ribeye was definitely my favorite and I would recommend it for any fellow meat lover!

My party of 4 visited around 1pm on a Wednesday and were seated promptly. We opted for their $59 full churrasco experience. It included a variety of cuts and market table selection. The servers came around at a decent pace with the meats. They were overall seasoned and cooked well, but a few were on the overcooked end, even when asking for a rarer cut. My favorites were the Pichana (top sirloin) and Fraldinha (bottom sirloin). Overall a good place if you are looking for variety of options.

Always an excellent meal

This might be the nicest Fogo I've been to - huge, classy, right in the middle of the NY action. I've probably been 5 times to this location and as a single or two people have never had to wait more than 10 minutes even without a reservation. It is also more expensive than other Fogo locations - about $15 more per person but still an excellent value. People swoon over Vegas buffets but Fogo has them all beat hands down - the salad bar (market table) isn't just a filler, it really is the star with such a variety of absolutely excellent things to get you started. I went once when they had a lobster bisque but its been a long time and I desperately want it to be a regular thing - My favorite cut is the picanha - so I've been opting to forego the "full experience" and just get the picanha - they still bring it to your table and you can have as much as you like. It is a fun and impressive place - but take your time - you can really enjoy the experience or get in and out pretty quickly - as close to fine dining-fast food combo as you want to make it.

This restaurant is highly recommended. We want to thank the wonderful staff for greeting us with such warmth, especially our waiter, who took such great care of us. Unfortunately, we forgot his name, but he was extremely polite and helpful. We were celebrating my father-in-law's birthday with a group of six, and making a reservation was definitely the right move, as it's highly recommended for larger groups. We did the full Churrasco experience, and the meat was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. They also have a salad bar, and everything there was made fresh and tasted amazing. We had the lava cake, which was absolutely delicious. Overall, a great experience and highly recommended. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Fogo de chao is an absolutely incredible (and slightly gatekept) happy hour. The Brazilian steakhouse is well known, but happy hour is a special secret. The cocktails are $10-12, wines are $8, and beers are $6-8. The best part is that bar snacks are $6 and there's a full burger option for $10. Super prices for the location and beautiful, sophisticated ambiance. I ordered the passionate caipirinha which has silver cachaca, passion fruit, and lime ($10). It's fruity, bitter, and strong, an amazing combo. We also ordered the polenta fries, sliders, and empanadas which were all very good. Unfortunately, this is a 4 start review due to the service. Our bar tender was nice enough, but the service was really slow. It was hard to get his attention and we had to reach out multiple times instead of him checking in. It's possible that he had more tables/responsibility than we realized, this slowing him down, but it was noticeable.

Christine M.

Excellent service at the midtown Fogo de chao! Rudy was our waiter and was fantastic. Along the staff we encountered were pretty great. We went for Saturday brunch my brother was suggested to get the indulgent experience which included a large lobster tail and dessert in addition to the full experience I had the regular along with a mimosa that was so good. I took my two little yelpers and they enjoyed the salad bar and waffles the most. I'd say it's a nice place for special occasions I was full. The end is come back I didn't get to try a few selections only because I was full.

Ask the Community - Fogo de Chão

Are we able to make reservations, and if so how?

They're on OpenTable, or you can make a reservation on their website.

What is the price for lunch? And do they offer a happy hour?

I'm not sure about lunch but each location approaches happy hour differently. If you go to the location in Manhattan you can have the meat selection and happy hour. The queens location (the one I prefer) you can have both.

Is the Feijoada bar available during brunch?

Yes!

Is lunch price available on weekends?

it is available and its very similar to the dinner menu - definitely worth going

What is market table and Fejioda Bar?

It s the salad bar with all the fixins'

Do they have any halal meats (chicken, beef or lamb)?

Yes they do have them

Totally confused with their menus. 1. What is CHURRASCO EXPERIENCE? Some kind of All you can eat?…

1. Yes AYCE rotation of steaks and meat carved at your table including a few side dishes for the table and everything at the self serve market table and hot food bar.… 

Does this midtown Fogo have outdoor seating this fall and if they do, is it the whole experience where waiters come cut meat at your table? I'm trying to plan ahead for my 's birthday. Thanks!

I would sit inside because the Feijoada bar is inside and you will not be able to transport food from inside to outside. The bar is all you can eat and it's downstairs. You can order from the regular menu but you cant can't get the experience… 

What's the difference between lunch & dinner? I can only tell a price difference.

That's all I think also. We went for lunch. Same menu as dinner menu. Just very much cheaper.t just don't think people eat as much as dinner and lunch is easier on the employees. Not as busy.

Is smoking allowed?

No it is not

Hello could someone tell me if they serve chicken sausage?

No they do not

Is the salad bar functioning normally or due to covid they have some restrictions or less stuff to choose from?

It was fully functional in New York in July.

Can we bring our own wine?

No, they don't do BYOB

Are you participating in restaurant week to go 2021?

We are! Here is a link to our take out Restaurant Week page https://fogo.olo.com/menu/fogo-de-cho-brazilian-steakhouse-21/products/32535721.

Is there outdoor dining?

No at the moment

Now that indoor dining has stopped, does your outdoor seating have heating?

Yes

How is the one in Carle Place doing social distancing indoors? And what is the % capacity indoors?

I am honestly not sure.

What is Fogo doing about the salad bar? Are all options still available somehow?

Yes all options are available . There is a waiter/ waitress that serves you. You cannot get items on your own .

Is inside dining available?

Not yet but the outside is gorgeous and you get the same service and delicious food.

Want to go here with a group of my friends, but one of them is vegan, how would this work? Also, how…

I'm a vegan and I left there full. If you don't want meat you just order the salad bar. It's around $35 but it's plenty of food to leave stuffed.

From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt so special and full of excitement for the kids. The event itself was beautiful. The princesses were wonderful with the children, and everyone had the chance to dance, sing along, and even create Mother's Day cards together. Watching our daughter light up while interacting with the princesses truly made the day unforgettable. The desserts included with the tickets were mediocre. The entire experience created such sweet family memories that we'll cherish for a long time. We also decided to purchase the hot buffet, which included Caesar salad, mixed salad, penne alla vodka, penne with garlic & oil, chicken parm, chicken cutlet, meatballs, and sausage & peppers. The food overall was good, and there were plenty of options for everyone. The kids' drinks were complimentary, while alcohol was a separate charge. Our little princess loved her Shirley Temple with extra cherries, and I really enjoyed my Jameson and ginger ale. The Caesar salad was especially good with their homemade dressing, and the huge croutons definitely made an impression. Maybe a little over the top, but still tasty! I ended up slicing the chicken cutlet into the Caesar salad, and it was honestly phenomenal together. The chicken cutlet itself was flavorful and one of our favorite items. The penne alla vodka was also very enjoyable. Unfortunately, the chicken parm was very dry and lacked flavor. We also skipped the meatballs after being told they contained pork. In hindsight, I probably should have looked up the ingredients beforehand, but we decided to pass on them. The only downside of the experience was a misunderstanding regarding the buffet. I was approached by a waitress asking whether we had already spoken to someone about eating. I initially thought the buffet was included with our event tickets, but apparently it was separate. I must have missed that information pw, so I ended up purchasing meal tickets for my family on the spot. I just wish the interaction had been handled a little more warmly and clearly. Aside from that small issue, we genuinely had a wonderful time. The event was beautifully organized and full of joy, music, laughter, and magical moments for families. Seeing our daughter so happy made everything worth it, and it turned into such a memorable Mother's Day celebration for us all.

Gallaghers is located near Times Square, but don't let the location fool you, this is a legitimate classic New York steakhouse with great food and a lot of character. If you're visiting Manhattan and looking for a traditional, old-school NYC steakhouse experience, I would highly recommend Gallaghers. If you're looking for something trendy or ultra-modern, this probably isn't the place but that's exactly part of what makes Gallaghers special. Definitely a place I would return to on another trip to NYC.

The lobster bisque was delicious and the picture can't show you that it was full of lobster. There was a LOT more lobster than a lobster bisque normally contains and the price was about normal for a lobster bisque with one tiny piece of lobster. The iced tea was a bit out of control. If I'm going to be charged $5 per glass of iced tea, that glass should be larger than the ones they use AND not 90% ice. That much for a glass of ice with a splash of iced tea is extreme. I'd still return, since the food was wonderful and hopefully I just got unlucky with the service.

Junior's Restaurant -- Times Square, NYC…read more My first time at Junior's in Times Square, and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised! I always associated Junior's with that legendary New York cheesecake, but there's so much more going on here. This location feels like a classic Brooklyn-style diner with a fun, bustling Times Square atmosphere. Junior's has been a New York institution since 1950, and the Times Square location brings that old-school diner feel right into the heart of the Theater District. And yes... it's not just about the cheesecake! The menu is huge, with plenty of choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. One thing I will tell you: the portions are BIG, so come hungry! There's a full bar with wine, top-shelf liquor, and plenty of beer, including Brooklyn beers. There aren't any draft beers at this location, but there are still plenty of bottled and canned options to choose from. There's also plenty of indoor seating, plus outdoor seating if you want to sit back and watch the Times Square action go by. We decided to skip the appetizers because we wanted to save room for dessert. That turned out to be a very good decision! What We Ordered Hungarian Beef Goulash The beef was cooked perfectly and served with egg noodles and peas. A hearty, comforting dish with plenty of flavor. 10 oz. Char-Broiled Bacon Cheeseburger I went with the bacon cheeseburger served on a toasted bun with lettuce and tomato. It comes with two BIG onion rings, and the crispy batter on those onion rings was fantastic! Instead of the steak fries, I went with something near and dear to my New Jersey heart... DISCO FRIES! If you're from New Jersey, you know exactly what I'm talking about -- crispy fries topped with melted mozzarella and gravy. Mouthwatering! Definitely the kind of side dish that makes you wonder why every restaurant doesn't offer it. And then came the moment we had supposedly been "saving room" for... Devil's Food Cheesecake I honestly don't know how we managed to fit this in, but we did! DECADENT! Rich, chocolatey, creamy, and absolutely delicious. By the time we finished, we were basically in a cheesecake coma. Thankfully, we had plenty of time to walk around New York City afterward and work some of that food off! Our server was fantastic -- attentive, friendly, and constantly checking in to make sure everything was good without being intrusive. That kind of service really makes a difference. This was a great first visit to Junior's, and I'm already looking forward to coming back. Next time, I definitely want to try another one of their famous cheesecakes. I've also heard their milkshakes are amazing, so I guess I'll have to make room for one of those too! Great food, huge portions, fun atmosphere, excellent service, and some seriously good cheesecake. If you're exploring Times Square and looking for a classic NYC dining experience, Junior's is definitely worth a stop!
