If you've never had Brazilian steakhouse, I definitely recommend doing it at least once. We went to…read morethis location to celebrate my birthday and because we received a coupon in the mail for a few dollars off a meal. We were the first group into the establishment when they opened on a Saturday for lunch, and were seated second. Staff was friendly and accommodating, and explained how the process worked. Inside gave off a sophisticated, clean, and upscale vibe. After seating, they directed us to the sides bar, which had an array of high quality foods to fill up on before the meat arrived. I tried to grab one of each, but of course had to maintain space for the meat. There were salads, carbs, and other appetizers galore. There was also a sanitation station with instructions for glove use. Once the meat arrived, they initially came in one big wave, table by table. My personal favorite was the picanha, but they also asked our table if we were looking for a specific meat. Chicken hearts were requested and soon brought out. I wish they had a list of available meats so it was easier to order and learn all the different types. Surprisingly, the table bread was my favorite. I crave it once in a while. Service was quick for the first few rounds, and staff kept an eye on our cards to see who wanted more (green for yes, red for no). After a few rounds, I noticed the servers came out less often, and possibly missed my green card (as I was sitting toward the wall). For your birthday (or anniversary or other listed events) you can get specific desserts for free or a discount for the flaming cheesecake (which I had to do like come on!). It was pretty cool, but careful with the taste after. Definitely more of a show piece, all the alcohol made the cheesecake bitter. My main complaint would be the water. Our waitress asked if we wanted drinks, and we declined, but then she asked if we wanted spring or still. We got two bottles before we realized we were going to get charged (I thought it was complimentary). I wish that had been communicated better.

Until then, I will dream about the Grilled Cheese!!! Thanks again for an exquisite and extraordinary evening!!!

My pregnant wife was hungry so I immediately thought Brazilian steakhouse would be a good bargain…read more At $80 pp, we definitely ate our share and came out stuffed. First of all, reservation was easy to get as I made it 45 min before heading out. Parking was easy as I parked in the free theater lot. It's just a short 5 min jaunt from there. Service was fantastic. They were attentive with refilling our drinks and sides. They even remembered my wife wanted more slightly cooked pieces. We both agreed the picanha or top sirloin was the best. The ambiance was great as we listened to live piano. Volume was louder than most places but you can still talk to your party. Overall, if I'm hungry, will definitely come back! Brazilian steakhouse is always a fun social meal!

I always choose this place because its a little spendy for me. We made reservations this time for 1130. They ONLY service lunch on Fridays. Otherwise, it is dinner only here. Lunch has increased to $48.00 vs. the thirty something I used to remember. Our server Luiz was very nice and everything was great. The beef Pichana is my favorite. Very tender and flavorful. Sausage was the only lack luster item. They had fried bananas and cheese rolls that I don't remember them having before. Since I told him it was my birthday, I got a free dessert and chose the cheesecake. I asked for a container to take the leftover 3 cheese rolls that were still on the table and knew would be thrown away. He not only came back out with a container, but added 6 additional rolls for me to take home that I thought was a very nice touch. Our bill came to $500 after tip for the 7 of us so it was not a cheap meal by any means and we all stopped before we went into food coma so they made their money but its a family business and not one of those chains so that is A-okay. See you next year Foga! I had a lovely lunch.

I truly believe every restaurant should strive to be like this one. I especially want to recognize…read morethe manager, Junior, and every employee who was working today. The restaurant was unbelievably clean, and every single staff member was consistently warm, friendly, and professional. The service was exceptional from start to finish. The food was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. What impressed me the most was how everyone genuinely went out of their way to make our family feel comfortable and ensure we had the best experience possible. Thank you to everyone who worked during the lunch service on 7/12. Because of your kindness and outstanding hospitality, our family had a wonderful time. We can't wait to come back!

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary here tonight. We had visited Galpão Gaucho a couple of…read moreyears ago and absolutely loved the experience, which is why we decided to come back. The food is still excellent. The meats were flavorful, well-prepared, and reminded us why we enjoyed our first visit so much. Unfortunately, the overall dining experience felt very different this time around. Almost immediately, we noticed a much faster tempo of service and what felt like excessive attentiveness. While good service is appreciated, it reached a point where it became disruptive. Between the multiple servers, managers, and gauchos continuously stopping by our table, my wife and I could barely get through a sentence of conversation before someone appeared to ask how everything was, whether we needed anything, wanted more bread, water, sauce, a clean plate, or another round of meats. There was also a constant sense of being upsold throughout the evening. We were repeatedly encouraged to purchase a bottle of wine, try tequila shots from the roaming tequila cart, or upgrade to the 24-karat edible gold-wrapped top sirloin. While I understand restaurants promote premium offerings, the frequency of these pitches started to feel more like pressure than hospitality. What was most frustrating was that even after flipping our table indicator to red, which is supposed to signal a pause in meat service, the interruptions continued. At that point, we simply wanted to enjoy our meal and spend time together, but it felt like we spent more time interacting with staff than with each other. Ironically, the nonstop interruptions caused us to eat much faster than we intended. For two people, the bill came to nearly $300 after my 18% gratuity. The food is undeniably good, but for a special occasion like an anniversary, the experience matters just as much as the meal. Sadly, this visit felt more rushed and sales-driven than relaxing and memorable. We'll remember the quality of the food, but we're not sure the overall dining experience justifies the price anymore. We won't be going back anytime soon.

Kids five and under are free and I think 12 and under are half price. If you work for the state and show your state IS you get 20% off. Service was friendly and attentive. Bathrooms were spacious and clean as well as ADA compliant. The salad bar had many choices and my favorite items were the plantains and the cheese bread. The meat overall was average. Some too salty and some cuts were chewy and could have been seasoned more or less. There is a parking structure nearby that would be cheaper than parking on the street.

Most of the inside seating was full, only 2 tables for 2 were available (were were a party of 3), but a nice lady (might be the owner's daughter) with 2 small children got up and came up to me to let me know she was getting ready to leave soon. She moved all their stuff and the 2 children to one of the small tables so the bigger table could be cleaned for us. They were a little short handed that day (owner said someone called in sick), so just the owner and cook were working. Bother owner and the cook worked fast to clean the table so we could be seated. More people came in after us and sat in their outdoor seating (a little chilly to sit outside that day). The owner did a great job serving all the customers by himself. The cook would help deliver the cooked food as well and help with customers if he wasn't cooking. The owner was apologetic about the slower service, but in actuality, it wasn't bad. As for the food, we ordered our usual, the Picanha Steak Platter (feeds 2-4 people) which is our favorite and over the best deal. Unfortunately in the past 2 years the price has gone up by about $20 (currently $70.99), but is still a great deal for 5 steaks on a sizzling platter (cooked to the doneness you want), rice and beans. The meal was delicious as usual. They have other great selections as well. Check them out for some great Brazilian food that is made to order.

My experience with Bacalhau Grill was extremely disappointing and frustrating…read more Before placing my order, I called multiple times because I have significant food allergies and needed to verify ingredients and preparation methods. Asking questions about allergens is not a matter of preference--it's a matter of safety. During these calls, I experienced repeated hang-ups while simply trying to get information about whether the restaurant could accommodate my allergies. Eventually, I was assured that my meal could be prepared without the ingredients I am allergic to, so I felt comfortable enough to place and pay for an order. Unfortunately, that was where the problems only got worse. After placing the order, I waited more than an hour and a half. During that time, I repeatedly attempted to contact the restaurant for updates and clarification. Instead of receiving assistance, my calls were repeatedly ignored or disconnected. It felt as though the restaurant was actively refusing to communicate after taking my payment. The most upsetting part of the experience was that after assuring me they could accommodate my allergies and accepting my money, I never received the level of communication or service that any customer should reasonably expect. When someone has food allergies, clear communication is essential. Being unable to get answers about an order involving allergens is stressful and unacceptable. What should have been a straightforward transaction turned into an exhausting experience filled with confusion, unanswered questions, and a complete lack of customer service. I spent considerable time trying to reach someone, waiting for an order, and attempting to resolve the situation, only to be met with silence and disconnected calls. I understand that restaurants get busy and mistakes can happen. However, repeatedly hanging up on a customer, failing to communicate after taking payment, and leaving someone waiting for over an hour and a half without meaningful updates is not acceptable. Customers deserve honesty, respect, and basic communication--especially when food allergies are involved. This was one of the most frustrating restaurant experiences I have had, and unfortunately I cannot recommend Bacalhau Grill based on the way this situation was handled.
