Diego CKAugust 20, 2013Excelent place! The meat si really good. But the buffet si the beat. Remember to leave some space for the Creme Brulee!
- Bacon wrapped filet. Yes please. Folks from many countries including those from South America all hail the goodness that is Fogo. After all these years, it has yet to be beaten in Churasscaria's.
Lamb chops all the way! If you don't see the gaucho, ask for it and they'll bring some over cooked exactly the way you want it. You can request mint jelly too. YUM!
A.NAugust 24, 2014Great salad bar, don't miss the cheese bread which is complimentary, they say the recipe is hidden in a vault for how tasty these cheese pillows are- The Rump Roast is my second favorite meat at Fogo and is also their house specialty. They thinly slice it for you and once all three chunks have been sliced both sides, they take it back to the grill!
NedraMarch 24, 2017The salad bar is insane. Like, I would just post up at the salad bar if the meat wasn't so amazing. Speaking of which -- steak. Don't get full on the other stuff -- zero in on the steak.- The Bacon Wrapped Filet is my favorite item on the menu. It's filet mignon with well, bacon around it! Don't know what their process is but both the bacon and filet are tender yet a little crispy!
Cheese bread, heart of palm, salmon with green sauce, a small ceasar salad, lamb meat, and their house special is a must have. Have a cheesecake to go!!- Folks, if you love Fogo, you NEED to try Chama Gaucha down the street (east) on Westheimer. The food and seevice is better and it is much cheaper! Ran by former Fogo U.S. operation mgmt team.
- This is the bacon wrapped filet from Chama Gaucha just a mile or so east of Fogo. They'll even ask how you'd want you filet cooked! Their filet mignon is also superior.
Catherine HealyAugust 2, 2012A authentic Brazilian steakhouse, salad bar, Brazilian side dishes, and award-winning wine list, 15 cuts of meat and offer you continuous tableside service.. The Gaucho Way of Preparing Meat.- The Fogo Parmesan Pork is a unique trip for your taste buds. Crusted with tons of cheese, these little pork chops will surprise you. Like the pork ribs, they are sometimes too dry. Just return it.
- Jared HuntApril 1, 2011Top Sirloin, Filet Mignon, Bottom Sirloin, Ribeye, & House Special! There is no more room for salad bar, bread, etc.... When going, have an early breakfast and late lunch. Give your stomach plenty of
Jerry PeruchiniSeptember 18, 2014Come hungry, skip the salad bar. Sirloin is amazing, heck it's all amazing. Perfect for a special occasion.- These little pork sausages taste like breakfast sausages you find in Europe or South America. A soft little mashup with a little kick to it. Don't fill up on them but give them a try or two.
Don CollinsNovember 20, 2010Don't fiddle with the bread they give you or the salad bar...just save your space for the MEAT!!!! This place has filet mignon, leg of lamb, parmesan pork sirloin, and much more. So good.- MarniOctober 20, 2014Come hungry, and don't spend too much time of the sides/salads. The meat is the star and it is delicious.
Ivonne GonzalezAugust 28, 2014Their salad bar is amazing. A feast for carnivores! The papaya creme for dessert with cassis is a must!- Finally tried asparagus, so GOOD. Heart of Palm was absolutely amazing and lamb chops galore, no other brasilian churrascaria will ever top this one.
Bandar BinkulaibNovember 9, 2014Fantastic meat and salad selection. Better than any high end brazilian steakhouses around town.- This is what the Beef Ribs at the entry way look like table-side. Extremely loose and tender enough to be eaten without a knife. It's also the least seasoned of all their meats. Stuff it in the bread!
CEO of Knocarachi EntDecember 5, 2016IM A LAMB CHOP GOD. AND THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE U LIKE LAMB CHOPS TOO 😋🍽🍗
Great date night place, just not on a first date. Great selection of meat, cheeses, and salad too!!
Marriette AjibodeApril 30, 2013Come here hungry ! If you love meat this is the place to be! You can't go wrong!
Danial ShamsMarch 6, 2015Everything. Skip the salad and go for all meat. The filet mignon is the best.- These Fred Flintstone looking displays at the restaurant entry are the "beef ribs" on the menu. This meat is similar to Texas brisket but with more subtle seasonings.
- Ah yes, the infamous Fogo Bottom Sirloin! With its loose and marbled meat texture, you'll fall in love and wish you had a tortilla to wrap cross cut strips of meat into!
- Ask for a lemonade. They will never fail to please you. And for dessert, get a cheesecake. Extremely worth it.
- Must... not... fill up on bread. I give up as they're too damn tasty to pass up. This is one item though that Nelore on Montrose comes pretty damn close on.
- Don't these "dry" Pork Ribs. Seasoned with lemon pepper, you'll be tempted to polish off the entire rack! Occasionally, they come out a little dry. Just tell your gaucho to bring out another rack.
Sean KellyJune 7, 2012The salad bar is for suckers. Save room for all the meat! Though, the salad bar is good too.
- Paul IvoryAugust 26, 2014Sorry Fogo but during Houston Restaurant Weeks we have been going to Tradicao Brazilian Steakhouse.
Dani RoseOctober 18, 2011I like the filet and the lamb. The bread is awesome, but very filling. The plantains, they are bananas.
CultureMap Houston ManagerMarch 27, 2012The gaucho lifestyle is depicted through large murals on the walls and with a grandiose table used as a salad buffet.- Fogo's Rack of Lamb are served up a little tangy and salty. These grilled treats taste very similar to Middle Eastern grilled / fired lamb chops.
- It's easy to strategize your valuable stomach space and avoid this seemingly "plain" chicken leg. Don't! It is tender dark meat marinated with beer and grilled with a light salty edge. Try it!
- The Garlic Pork is their sirloin broiled with a thick layer of garlic all around and an edge of yummy fat.
- The on premise prepared "bacon bits" is technically a salad bar item but I consider it one of the Fogo meats. :)
- Children 5 and under are free. 6 through adult are half off. Nelore on Montrose are free 6 and under. Lots of folks were stolen from this Fogo.
- This is a horrible sample photo of what is normally a golden red price of juicy chicken breast wrapped in bacon. You'll be astounded by how juicy a non-fried/baked piece of breast meat can be!
Lawrence BlandDecember 1, 2010This place is "A" number one on Food and Service! A bit pricey but its well worth it!
