    The transition from the Lake City Botteco to the Kirkland Obutekim is completed, with the rodizio churrasco on weekends! For mainly meat-lovers, the experience is addictive. Freshly grilled meats to desired wellness, side orders cooked when ordered, this is the best Brazilian experience we have found in the Greater Seattle area. Service is attentive and the meats keep coming so long as your card is on the green side. The decor follows on from the prior location but with more color. This is a family favorite.

    Good food. The location and general atmosphere with the interior layout leave something to be desired, but the food is good. A little pricey, but then it's unique and made from good ingredients. If you want a taste of Brazil that's not snack food, this is the place to try.

    Place was def giving deserted money laundering vibes. Host was super straight forward nonchalant but the steak lemme tell you it was cooked and seasoned to perfection. It had a perfect sear and was a nice medium rare better than i could ever do it. But granted i burn my eggs sometimes. Price itself was a bit up there for $30 a plate but bulk approved.

    Tried this sport during a dinner time on a weekday. The service was good. The ordered was taken promptly. We were given food recommendations by the staff. We ended up trying the beef steak churasco special, beef stroganoff and the lamb. The steak was a bit dry even though we ordered a medium., the lamb was excellent and the stroganoff was not bad. The food was all well marinated and flavorful. There plenty of parking around and ambience is not bad - lots of colors and decors that will take you to Brazil.

    This place opened up early August of this year and I was excited to try it. I don't really know a lot about Brazilian cuisine but this place did not disappoint! We loved everything from the fried plantains, fried yuca, garlic shrimp to the beans and steak. Lots of good flavors. The waiter, Rodrigo, was super friendly and attentive. The ambience, colorful and eclectic!! Definitely worth coming back to try their lunch offering on a weekend!

    Dinner is done!

    I had a terrible experience at another location 3 years ago where our waitress disappeared, so it…read morewas frustrating to have something similar happen again here. We originally planned to order the Indulgent menu for three to get the lobster tail. Our waiter suggested doing two churrasco dinners plus the seafood tower instead, saying we'd get more seafood for about the same price. I mentioned we also wanted the free dessert that comes with the Indulgent menu, and he reassured us, "I got you on desserts." We appreciated the deal. However, about 20 minutes later, he completely disappeared, likely having clocked out. When we were ready for dessert, we had to flag down another staff member, who said she didn't know who our waiter was or where he went. She initially told us she could only offer one free dessert, which wasn't what we had been promised. Eventually, a manager stepped in and honored it, which we appreciated. Still, it was concerning that no one seemed to know who our server was. If shifts are ending, there should be a proper handoff instead of just leaving tables unattended. Service felt rushed as shifts were ending. When we asked for more cheese, one staff member seemed reluctant, then later dropped off a full plate of something else when I only wanted one piece. She clocked out and left at the same time as us. The ambiance was nice, but I was surprised my clothes smelled afterward. This didn't happen at a way smaller location I've visited. Food was mostly good, with a few misses. No one brought us filet mignon until I specifically requested it near the end. The biggest disappointment was the "seafood tower," which turned out to be more of a basic seafood plate. For $112 (before tax), it was very underwhelming, bland, overcooked, and chewy, with no sauces to complement it. We came for the steaks but ended up spending a good 20-30 minutes on seafood that was completely tasteless. I'd never get seafood here again. This could have been a 5-star experience if not for the service issues and the disappointing seafood.

    My husband and I had a 7pm reservation on a Friday night but showed up 30 min early after seeing a…read moremovie and they were thankfully able to seat us earlier. I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses but this was my first time at Fogo de Chao. We both went with the full Churrasco for the experience. Similar to other reviewers I felt like the meats came around in waves, making for awkward periods of waiting for more food. The ribeye was pretty good but some of the other cuts of meat seemed a bit dry/tough. Whenever they were walking around with more meat it seemed quite chaotic in the restaurant. We were seated in the back by what I assumed was an event space and that area was especially a bit tight and chaotic with employees coming in and out of there. One thing I did really love was the fresh pineapple! The guy carrying that one kept running out so fast. It was delicious and paired very nicely with the steak. It's a great location too, so much to do nearby. They also validate parking which is a plus. Overall, I would say the Churrasco experience is not worth the price. For 2 people we paid close to $200 when it was all said and done. For that price I would rather go somewhere with a more romantic and peaceful ambiance.

We made a 2:00 PM reservation, which the restaurant allows even though lunch service ends at 2:30 PM. While we were informed service stops at 2:30, it felt like our presence was an inconvenience from the moment we arrived. The hostess who seated us seemed visibly annoyed that we were there, which immediately set an uncomfortable tone. Unfortunately, the food did not make up for it. The meat was only semi-warm, the bread tasted stale, and unlike our previous visits, no one offered additional bread or polenta refills like they normally do. We've had good meals here in the past, but this was honestly the worst experience we've ever had at this restaurant. Allowing reservations so close to closing time shouldn't result in rushed service, inattentive hospitality, or subpar food quality. Very disappointing.

I ordered my drink via the tablet off to one side. Truth is if the staff greeted me, I very likely would have bought some pastries from their bakery case. Since I didn't have anyone to ask questions, I skipped it. Mocha Shake, 20oz, $6.99 - 4.5 Stars Each drink allows an impressive array of choices - milk type, whipped y/n, shot type, sweetness. It's almost like ordering at a bubble tea shop. The Mocha shake was pretty and yummy, even though a bit watery. It might be because I chose 2% milk. Not dinging them for that. Guaraná Antarctica Zero, ~$2.50 - 3 Stars I should have looked it up before purchasing. I was curious because the store has cases and cases of them. It is a Brazilian soda created in 1921 made from the guaraná berry native to the Amazon rainforest. There is a natural caffeine content for a mild energy boost. I actually thought the image is cherries (stupid, I know). The zero-version tasted mega-sweet. I'm sure many will like it, just not me.

Highly recommend this spot over the "other" Brazilian-style restaurants. The location, atmosphere, and overall vibe were impeccable, and the service was top-notch from start to finish.

What really stood out was how attentive and interactive all the servers were. They kept the meats coming nonstop and made the entire dining experience enjoyable. The sides were also perfectly portioned and complemented everything well. Highly recommend this location if you're looking for an amazing dining experience. Ask for Gio!

    Very unfortunate experience. Our waiter had no interest in being our waiter. When we arrived, I saw…read morea big piece of meat on the floor right next to my chair, so I asked the waiter "can you please ask someone to pick that up?" He just looked at me like I was nuts to ask him that. A few minutes later, we put in an order for drinks. I got sangria, my husband asked for a specific Merlot. I got my drink but we continued to wait for the Merlot. Like 10 minutes later, waiter says "we're out of that merlot do you want something else?" Husband says "sure, there was another Chilean merlot on the menu can I have that?" (Back to the meat on the floor, waiter never handled it. My husband ended up getting a paper napkin, picking it up and walking somewhere to throw it out.) So the waiter shows back up with a sample of a wine and says to my husband, "would you like this?" He walks away... about 10 minutes later he comes back and he says "so did you like that?" My husband says "no actually I did not can I please see a menu?" the waiter walked away and never brings back a menu... he actually never came back again until I asked for the check. When we were finally done with dinner, I really was very disappointed with this waiter who did a terrible job and I didn't want to leave him a good tip, but then I realized that we had several servers because this is a Brazilian steakhouse where they bring the meats to your table and sliced them at your table so we had several different people who were deserving of a tip. I figured tips were split among all of the workers and so I didn't want to impact everyone else's tip. When we got the bill, tip was included and I said "well, this makes complete sense. He has zero incentive to do a good job."

The table also has two glass bottles of water for refilling as needed which I always appreciate. We started with the Bone Marrow and Queso Fundido and both were delicious. 10/10, no notes. I typically don't like Queso Fundido because it gets so greasy and the cheese hardens fast but this was flavorful, spreadable and the chorizo was a nice compliment not the main event. The Bone Marrow was exactly what you'd expect! So yummy. For our mains we got the Buenos Aires Torta (actually the reason we came to try Asadero) and the shrimp tacos. The bread for the Torta was flavorful and perfectly toasted. The steak was delicious and the chimichurri was so good I just wish there was more! My husband got the tacos and he said they were also very good! After we finished eating we were offered peppermint tea (complimentary) which was another really unexpected and unique touch/experience! The service from everyone was great. Very friendly. Quick service. The establishment was clean and so cozy but also upscale in a very chill way. Bathrooms were clean and smelled good with cute decor. It's not a huge place but I think that's what allows for such an attentive experience. From start to finish we really enjoyed ourselves and will absolutely be back with friends or family!
