    Place us centrally located on the harbor with self serve parking that's a bit pricey. It was easy to make a reservation and table available up in arrival. The tables are a bit too close to each other making it difficult for the gauchos to come thru with the meats with ease. The place is greatly decorated but it can feel overwhelming with all the crowded tables. Staff are nice but servers take a long time to come to the tables and meat offerings are very spread out at each table. Not sure I'd come back to this establishment as Tysons corner has way more ample seating space and more meat variety coming around.

    Strawberry Hibiscus Caipirinha

    Fogo de Chão was such a vibe. I went on a Saturday around 3:30 pm and caught their all day happy hour, which was perfect. We sat at the bar and ordered the strawberry hibiscus caipirinha, the saucy legs, and the picanha burger to split, and everything was amazing. The saucy legs were the standout. Fall off the bone tender, super flavorful, and topped with little scotch bonnet peppers that added the perfect kick. The drink was refreshing and honestly transported me straight to an island. The bar service was okay, but the food and drinks were the real reason I was there, and they did not disappoint. I can't wait to go back.

    11.30.2025. It's hard to believe this is my first time inside Fogo- National Harbor. I watched it being built and knew it was a great addition to the lineup. My friends have incorporated Fogo into their rotation & reiterate how difficult it is to get a seat at the bar. The great all day HH deals are likely the reason why. However, on this particular cold & dreary Sunday, my friends arrived early & ensured there was space for me. I washed my hands then checked out the restaurant & buffet spread. It looked amazing!!! Unfortunately, I wasn't hungry enough to partake. I grabbed a couple of my friend's crispy fries while waiting for my spinach dip & crab cake. They were tasty. So much so, that I had to resist the urge to grab more. My friends also ordered a Gold Rush for me that was fantastic. Such an attractive warmly lit restaurant. Perfect for gathering to discuss an upcoming trip, date night, or whatever. Shout out to the team that had a hand in transforming it from McLoone's Pier House that I also enjoyed.

    Short Rib Sliders

    This was my second visit to the National Harbor location. I met a friend for Happy Hour on a Saturday evening around 6. Surprisingly there were available seats at the bar, and we sat down right away. The service is pretty good at the bar, depending on how busy they are. We both ordered cocktails and started with the empanadas and the short rib sliders which were both so good. I still felt like I needed a little something, so I ordered another cocktail and the lamb chop lollipops. The chops were delicious and cooked perfectly. Fogo is a beautiful restaurant with lots of ambiance. I've only ever been on Saturday's and they are always packed.

    My daughter treated us out to dinner for my birthday. It was so nice. We got there right on time and was seated as soon as we got there. To my surprise, the whole staff that waited on us were young. They were probably early 20s but they looked like they were 16 and earning money for prom. You can tell they were young not only by how they looked but how they acted BUT they were very professional and were on top of their job. There were two main girls that waited on us but because we were right by the register we got supported by others as well but the dude at the end... I'll tell you about him at the end. It's Fogo so you already know what to expect. A nice dining experience with a lot of red meat. I don't eat pork so I told them that and I only needed to mention it 2 times and from then on, when pork came out, they would ask the ladies but skip me so I liked that attention to detail. They offered to take our plates once they were pretty much cleaned and didn't wait for us to get up for a new plate before taking them away. They also kept our glasses full. For me, I enjoyed seeing them interact with each other because they seemed like they liked each other and worked well together. It also seems like they've been doing this a while and after I sent the pork away from me the main waitress came over and went over our allergies with us and then told us there wasn't much to stay away from that was out but there was one dish that had nuts. When we were done with the main course and time for deserts, she came back and advised us of what to stay away from due to allergies. She did however, offer to make some adjustments so we could have a desert everyone wanted that had something that one was allergic to but she was able to have it prepared w/o the allergen and we were very thankful of that. But first, when we finished eating, I was full. I didn't want desert but dude came out. I forget his name but let's call him Ricco Suave because bro was very personable. He told me my desert would be free because it was my birthday and since I was getting desert, I couldn't keep them from getting desert. His mannerisms was so smooth that it was funny to me but as I said, we all got desert and had a great night. I'm definitely coming back to this location. I've eaten at all DMV locations and this is my favorite just off service alone.

    I came here after standing in line for almost two hours for a book signing, it was so worth it! Fogo was across the street, and I saw they have all-day happy hour, so I decided to try it. Their happy hour did not disappoint. I ordered the Brazilian empanadas, they were incredible and generously stuffed! I loved the chimichurri aioli that came with them. The crispy yuca fries paired nicely with the aioli as well. I also ordered the braised beef sliders, they were well-seasoned and melted in my mouth. While I was dining, a homeless woman came into the restaurant, and the guest services manager handled it beautifully. She gave her a table in the corner of the restaurant and treated her with absolute kindness. For that alone, I will return to this Fogo! I highly recommend this restaurant, their happy hour did not disappoint and the decor is really nice. Although the outside is going through construction.

    I went to Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse and pre-ordered for pickup--glad I did because the restaurant was extremely busy. When we received our food, we did have have to remind them to provide utensils, and the wait was very long. That said, it was a busy weekend with many guests coming in from surrounding hotels, which explained the delay. Despite this, the staff remained professional the entire time and were accommodating whenever we asked for something. The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the steak, my sister had the chicken, and the crème brûlée cheesecake was amazing. I would definitely recommend Fogo de Chão.

    The service here is a bit slow so even if you are coming for happy hour, expect to wait 15-20 mins to get your plates. Also every table around us got table bread except ours which we noticed towards the end of our meal. We had: Lobster & shrimp tacos: these were fine, the "taco shell" is a single piece of lettuce but you get a decent amount of filling Empanadas: 5, these were good Chicken something from the happy hour menu: 4 drumsticks, these were good too Lamb lollipops: 4 pieces, a little fatty but fine Over all the food and drinks were good and worth the happy hour prices and it's all day happy hour as well. It did take awhile for the waiter to come back and take our check in the end as well even though the dining room wasn't full.

    We usually go to DC , but tried this one because it is closer and cheaper. Location is good, street parking (meter) or parking lot. Inside is very nice and is what you would expect from Fogo.Bar area and dining area with nice view of harbor. Staff is friendly and very attentive, and the meat kept coming with no delays. Everything was delicious. Salad Bar has the usual, different design so stays busy and not as easy to navigate. Overall a great experience!!!

    I had a wonderful experience with colleagues last night. I love the Christmas decor and they have a pretty expansion salad bar that is self-serve. I could get full of that alone. For my entree, I ordered the Single Churrasco of Picanha steak. The meat was delicious and cooked perfectly--flavorful and well-seasoned. The staff were very kind and accommodating. They made me a quenching Old Fashioned with Woodford Reserve, which is my favorite Bourbon. It was a great complement to the dinner. The polenta was also nicely made as were the accompanying side dishes. I ended the dinner with the molten chocolate cake which I shared with a beloved colleague. I highly recommend this spot. This was my first time at Fogo de Chao, I definitely see the hype from friends and family members who just adore the place. Bravo!

    Fogo de Chão - National Harbor This Ain't Dinner. This Is a Full-Blown Brazilian Meat Rave. If you've never been to Fogo de Chão, let me paint you a picture: imagine a Brazilian steakhouse threw a Carnival party, hired a team of sword-wielding meat magicians, and said "Let's get weird." That's the vibe. From the moment I sat down, it was game on. I flipped my card to green and suddenly I was surrounded--gauchos emerging from the smoke like meat-bearing Ninjas. Picanha? Boom. Lamb chops? Boom. Bacon-wrapped filet? BOOM. It's like speed dating with protein--except every option is hot, juicy, and knows how to treat you right. The picanha alone deserves its own Netflix series. Just sea salt, fire, and Brazilian wizardry. Juice dripping like it owed me money. I was sweating. Crying. Praying. Speaking in tongues. My inner carnivore was doing backflips. Then there's the salad bar--though calling it a salad bar is like calling the Amazon a puddle. It's a utopian jungle of fancy cheeses, cured meats, quinoa that probably has a trust fund, and some mystery Brazilian stuff I didn't recognize but ate like I was possessed by the spirit of Pelé. The sides? Straight-up chaos. Little cheesy pão de queijo balls that made me reconsider all past relationships. Fried polenta that slapped harder than a telenovela plot twist. And those caramelized bananas? Sweet baby Jesus on a hammock in Rio--they were dessert foreplay. I washed it all down with a caipirinha so strong it tried to fight me in Portuguese. 10/10 would lose that fight again. By the time I flipped my card to red, I was delirious. Meat drunk. Floating. A waiter asked if I was okay--I whispered "obrigado" and saw God in a skewer of ribeye. Look, if you come here expecting "portion control" or "moderation," turn around. This is not that. This is war. This is love. This is Brazil, baby.

    The experience was great and Johanathan went above and beyond to make my experience and birthday great. The food was fresh and the ambiance and food tasted great I will definitely be back.

    Caesar Salad

    Someone suggested Brazil steakhouse for dinner and I remembered they put a Fogo de Chao at the Harbor but I haven't been. Today was my lucky day lol! Located at a perfect location near the water, parking lot area (you pay when you leave), kids carousel and walking distance from the Capital Wheel and other places. It's beautifully designed from the outside to inside with a full bar, dining area and salad bar. Plus there's even outside seating which has a nice view of the bridge, water and everything. Since I don't eat meat, I didn't get the Unlimited Meat deal, I ended up just selecting seafood options which you pay per item. BRAZILIAN CHEESE BREAD Something about this texture is soooooo good and addicting. I wish other restaurant had this, it's unlimited but don't get too carried away bc this def can make you full lol. LOBSTER GARLIC MASHED POTATOES This homemade mashed potatoes infused with butter and garlic was absolutely delicious. The green onions made it even better and topped with lobster added the balance I needed. LOBSTER This lobster looked good but sadly it was overcooked so I didn't have the pleasure to eat it. Luckily, our waitress was nice and asked if I needed it re-made but I was already getting full. I appreciated the extra effort in making sure I was satisfied so they def still earned all the STARS. Things happen and it's how you treat your customers which I value. CRAB CAKE This crab cake was cooked to perfection with a slightly crusted top. Full of flavor and a great amount of crab meat with barely any filler, it's so soft it falls apart as you eat, I ended up adding this with my salad. CESAR SALAD Freshly chopped iceberg lettuce, homemade croutons and grated Parmesan. I added olive oil since I don't like salad dressing, this was exactly how I like it. It's a salad so where can you go wrong, just what I needed to off balance the proteins. CHOCOLATE BRIGADIERO This dessert is a chocolate lovers dream, such a beautiful slice of decadent dessert with whipped cream & strawberry decor. It's semi light but filled with flavor and an Oreo like crust which was chefs kiss. It's super rich and filling, I couldn't eat 1/3 so of course I took the rest home. Our beautiful waitress was exceptionally AMAZING & more. She was extra ordinary, went above and become and just made the experience 1000% better. She accommodated and made sure she provided excellent service. I'm so mad I didn't get her name because deserves the recognition!

Note, the portion for chicken and waffles is huge...a colleague got that and could barely finish it. We had some chocolate pecan pie and banana pudding for dessert and both were good but I'd say the banana pudding was my favorite. Overall a great experience at a reasonable price.

The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere was amazing, and we had such a great time from beginning to end. Our waiter, Ibrahim, was phenomenal. He took exceptional care of our table, was professional, attentive, and truly elevated the entire dining experience. He walked us through all of the specials -- from the Chilean sea bass to the espresso-rubbed filet mignon -- and everything sounded so good that we ended up trying a little bit of everything. And let me tell you... every single dish delivered. For appetizers we had the Rockefeller oysters, whiskey shrimp and kale Caesar salads. For entrees, I personally had the red snapper entree and the scallop entree, and I also ordered the ribeye for the table. Other dishes included the espresso filet, a Mediterranean branzino along with another entrée featuring crab cake, shrimp, and salmon. Everything was flavorful, perfectly prepared, and beautifully presented. Everyone at the table thoroughly enjoyed their meals. One of the highlights of the evening was when Ibrahim smoked our drinks tableside for us. It added such a fun and memorable touch to an already special night. He also took the time to explain the history behind the restaurant, and it was such an informative and meaningful story. Learning about the history made the experience feel even more special and gave us an even greater appreciation for dining there. Overall, it was an outstanding birthday dinner and an experience I will absolutely remember. I will definitely be returning, and if you're looking for a beautiful restaurant with amazing food, wonderful service, and a memorable atmosphere, I highly recommend checking them out. Go hungry, enjoy yourself, and have fun -- you won't be disappointed.

We also had a reservation but were initially told they couldn't find it without much effort to check. The wait times were extremely long about 30 minutes for our appetizer and an hour for our entrées. After waiting that long, 2 out of 3 of us had to send our food back because it was undercooked. That said, our waiter Reuben was very kind and did what he could to turn things around. He comped some items and brought out bread pudding, which ended up being the best thing we had. The ambience in the bar area was decent, with nice smaller tables and good music, but it was so loud we could barely hear each other. Food overall was hit or miss. The calamari was just okay, but the breading was falling off and the sauce was runny. The clam chowder was actually pretty good, according to my friends. Unfortunately, the entrées were the biggest letdown; one steak came out rare instead of medium well, and my salmon looked slimy and unappetizing. Overall, between the long wait times and disappointing entrées, I wouldn't return. I do appreciate our waiter Reuben though for trying to improve the experience, so shout out to him!

Located inside the Gaylord Hotel / resort, the location is extremely convenient if you're a hotel guest. From start to finish it was a great experience. Plenty of bar seating available (Recommend reservations if with a larger party, for a table). The food is where it really stands out. I noticed they had bone marrow for an appetizer. Of course, had to try it, as I do anywhere that actually serves it. This was up there with the best, if not THE best I've had. Flavor of both the marrow and toasted bread, were perfection. For the entree, I ordered the filet mignon. Again, a great choice. Cooked to perfection (medium rare), with great flavor. Drinks weren't cheap but also not outrageous compared to other restaurants in the area. Would 100% come back again, and would recommend to others as well.

    This is a refined restaurant that is more treat than everyday, for me. The decor is stately and…read morecozy. I like that some of the seating is far apart. However the openness can lead to overhearing conversations. Enjoyed the fries coated with rice flour and the carrots. They tasted better with the maple mustard glaze requested on the side. The hostess did hear my allergies but I had to check with the waiter for the lamb I ordered. It said herb crusted but was also covered with breadcrumbs. The waiter definitely checked and replaced the lamb. However that was not addressed until I asked when the dish was in front of me. The drinks were good upon arrival. The ice diluted the flavors fast, but that is something I notice. The waiter also made a comment about tipping (making waiters happy), which surprised and disappointed me. While I liked a lot of things about the restaurant, the overall experience was midrange.

I called ahead and spoke with Todd, who was incredibly kind and accommodating for our party of five. When we arrived, Todd greeted us and seated us right away. He truly radiates light and joy, setting the tone for the entire evening. Our server, Alison, was an absolute gem--attentive, personable, and on top of everything. The food was outstanding. We ordered the ribeye, New York steak, and filet mignon, all cooked to perfection. The Oysters Rockefeller were superb! I had asked for my daughter's meal to come out as soon as possible, and they made it happen without hesitation, which we really appreciated. For sides, we had the Brussels sprouts--perfectly balanced, sweet but not overly so--and the creamed corn, which was absolutely on point. We didn't end up ordering dessert, but the options looked amazing and tempting! Todd came by our table to check in, which added such a personal touch. The ambiance was lovely, and as we were leaving, Todd walked us outside and spent a few moments chatting with us--it truly meant a lot. Todd and Alison made our experience at The Oaks unforgettable, along with the incredible food. Thank you both--we hope to see you again soon! --SoCal Visitors

Lots of wood and dark colors. Great service from Shawn. We tried the Ribeye and NY Strip. Both were ok. Not much seasoning. Lots of marbling. Both had significant sections of fat. For me, wasn't the best cut for either. Both were ok steaks. We had the fries and cream corn. The fries are made with a beef fat. Tasty. The cream corn has a lot of cheese on top and throughout (see pic). That wasn't a favorite for me. Was more like a mac and cheese. Pricing was for a Ruth Chris experience but fell flat on delivery. As an example, went to The Wharf a few days later and had their NY strip, with crab cake, and sides all for the same price. It was a much superior cut of steak and the flavors were fantastic.

BEAUTIFUL weather, GREAT crowd, and decent service…read more In all honesty, they did our server, Ron, dirty and assigned him another table way too far away from our party of 10 ... so he was unable to adequately accommodate us. No fault of his, but beverages were missed, refills were slow, 2 orders were forgotten. *Sigh* As for the food ... LOVE their menu additions / updates (crab dip, etc.) but we all agreed we'll skip Redstone's food moving forward. Everything was mediocre and lacked seasoning. The ranch wings had NO flavor, the barbecue sauce on the barbecue wings was good but the wings were just as unseasoned as the ranch wings. The buffalo shrimp, brussel sprouts and cornbread were decent, but it was just too much hit or miss with everything else we ordered. Suffice it to say, I was not a fan this time. However, I would absolutely return to chill and enjoy some cocktails in their outdoor space. NGL, that fire pit area is prime real estate at the harbor! Would love to hear YOUR opinion. When you go, tell them you saw it on Yelp.

The good: the buttery rolls came out hot and smelled amazing; they can make a lactose-free version. The salmon and ribs were good, and of the plate of delicious desserts, the banana cream pudding was a standout. The midding: the vegetarian noodle bowl was a very large serving compared to everything else (one person remarked that it seemed bottomless). Cocktail menu was interesting, but my colleague's nonalcoholic cocktail was a miss. The bad; Someone else's chicken was undercooked. The salad greens were drenched in dressing, so I just ate the cherry tomatoes. The white rice and mixed veg that came with my salmon were just meh. Finally, quite loud inside; I was hoarse from shouting.

We were seated inside, which had a decent amount of seating. I thought the restaurant was cute, and it had a nice ambience. We ordered several dishes, starting with the cajun crawfish Mac & cheese, crab stuffed oysters, and charred spring vegetables. All 3 starters were delicious, with my favorite being the crab stuffed oysters. The Mac & cheese was a close second - it was nicely seasoned and perfectly au dente. The vegetables were also very good, and the pita it came with was great. On the breakfast menu, we ordered the chicken and waffles and shrimp and grits. Both were very good. I haven't had many chicken and waffles, but the chicken was tasty with the hot honey. The shrimp and grits was very flavorful. If I had to pick one though, I would probably pick the shrimp and grits. The service was solid, she was very friendly and came back a decent number of times. I would 100% come back again!

    Gorgeous restaurant. I have been wanting to visit Matt and Tony's for years but I am not often in…read morethe Arlington area. We walked in and were blessed to immediately get a table despite being told it may be an hour wait on the phone. We received a menu and ordered the breakfast burrito and the biscuits and gravy. Our food came extremely fast which surprised me and makes me wonder how much is prepped ahead. My friend received the burrito and it was very greasy so she requested to order something else. My biscuits and gravy were yummy. The eggs were cooked well and the fried chicken was the star of the show. Easily this was some of the best chicken I have had in a while. I overall enjoyed my meal but I wish there was way more gravy as there was only a little bit layered on top of the 2 biscuits. My friend was given a menu to order something else and this menu was different and had dinner options. It was 4:30 when we came and not more than 15 minutes of difference before receiving a menu the second time so we were surprised but eager to look. My friend ordered the half chicken which came with collard greens and grits. Since there was a different menu I wasn't aware of I wanted to order something additional and opted for saving the brunch meal I ordered for breakfast tomorrow. I loveeee scallops so when I seen them on the menu especially over grits I had to order it. The scallops were cooked wonderfully and I loved the composition of the dish with the creamy grits and the acid from the tomatoes and the smokiness of the sauce and grits. My friend loved the half chicken and after trying it myself we both agreed Matt and Tony's knows how to cook chicken well. The greens had nice flavor but were a little dry and needed some broth/juice from cooking. Again the grits were delicious and creamy with a bit of smoky flavor. I also had the Peso Cocktail which was sweet with a nice kick. Overall I enjoyed this restaurant and would come again and absolute what I ordered again as well. Coming here next time will be hard cause I'm definitely going to be battling between wanting what I already had and trying something new.

For appetizers, I ordered the fried oyster deviled eggs, and wow... they were so good. The little fried oysters on top of the deviled eggs were such a perfect combination. Crispy, creamy, flavorful -- definitely something I would order again without hesitation. For my entrée, I had the whole grilled branzino served over a green bean and fennel salad, and let me tell you... this was hands down one of the best branzinos I've ever had. The fish was seasoned perfectly and cooked beautifully. And that green bean and fennel salad underneath? So much better than I expected. I actually considered swapping it out, and I'm so glad I didn't because it completed the dish perfectly. Every bite was delicious. I also had a cocktail called the Endless Summer -- a tequila drink with this amazing foam on top -- and it was excellent. I asked the bartender for a recommendation, and she absolutely delivered. The bartender was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. I went by myself, sat at the bar, and genuinely enjoyed every minute of it. Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere, and just an overall really enjoyable experience. I will definitely be back, and I absolutely recommend checking it out if you're at the Harbor.

And that alone shows just how consistent they are when it comes to providing outstanding service and a menu that never disappoints ( literally ) I wanted something I never personally tasted , so I tried the Branzino fish and was pleasantly surprised at how fluffy and seasoned it was. And when it comes to getting everything kicked started, you can never go wrong with the double fried chicken wings ( best in the business by a long shot ) So this coming spring and summer The Walrus Oyster & Ale House will be my favorite sit down location in the DMV area !!!! FYI: The have outside seating and a really cool happy hour !! ( you got to try the local oysters during happy hour )
