   For international travelers not knowing this is a chain restaurant it would be good to explain the all you can eat concept with basically no other choice and display clearly the price 72$ per person!!!

   Our server had no experience serving before. He took our discs and plates so we weren't able to get more food. He never brought drink refills, never checked on us. Anytime we needed something we had to ask a server nearby. We had a code for a free dessert. Another server had to go put it in for us. It took a half hour and talking to 2 managers to even get our bill. They were being pulled every which way, so if you had a poor server, you'd sit there for a long time with nothing, which is what happened. Another server got our bill for us and fixed it because of course he didn't put in the code for the free dessert. I ended up tipping just her. Our server literally never came back to our table. We weren't rude in any way, we just asked for help when we noticed he wasn't coming around. All the other servers were very attentive. The people with the swords were great. I know there's a method to which tables they go to first, but it's hard not to feel like you're being skipped. There are some proteins that never made it to our table to try. Seems a little chaotic.

   We have enjoyed Fago de Chao in three different states. Always good. My only complaint is the preparation of the plantains in SF compared to Other locations make them a bit less desirable. Service was wonderful!

   First time there and it was definitely a dining experience. The meats were all prepared well and the staff was nice and polite. The salad bar food seemed fresh and there was a large variety. Come with an empty stomach so you can fit more food into it!

    First time to visit Fogo de Chao, The FOGO TRADITION of the CHURRASCO EXPERIENCE was an excellent experience. Food and service was extremely good. Each cut of meat was very tasty. We were never waiting too long for the waiters to present different cuts of meat. The MARKET TABLE & FEIJOADA BAR was incredibly tasty and offered so many cold options. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

    Maybe "the great resignation" issues but tool 15 minutes after being seated to be visited for our drink order and every "waitstaff transaction" required a wait to get someone's attention. Food was amazing as always !

    We went a few months back and the market table was a little lacking and the meat slow to make it round the room with some selections never making it to the table. But this time the food was back to its normal high standard. If anything, the selection of meat was better and the market table had more variety. But the rest of the service was pretty poor for a special occasion place. No one came to the table to take our drinks order for 10 minutes after we were seated. The drinks took a long time to arrive. There were no bowls available near the feijoada stew and no servers nearby to ask. We wanted a drinks refill part way through but no one was available to ask. We asked one of the meat servers if he could send someone over but no one arrived. After we were finished we waited over half an hour to pay and leave and we had to ask two different people to make that happen. Our glasses were cleared away at one point but no one came for the plates until we were ready to leave. There was a mistake on the bill but we didn’t want to spend another half hour trying to get someone to sort it out so we left it. I know places are short staffed, but the restaurant doesn’t have to seat so many people if it can’t cope with a full dining room. It marred an otherwise excellent meal.

    Fogo de Chao - San FranciscoResponded on June 6, 2022Helen, while we are glad to hear our food was back up to our high standards this time around, we are saddened our service did not reflect this. Please know that we care deeply for the opinion of our guests and hope to have another chance to make things right.

    We waiting along time for everything. They kept coming out with the same cuts of meat and when we were all done we needed up waiting over 30 minutes to get the bill. The bill came out to over $1k for 10 adults and one child. We knew the prices but expected much better service. It is sad because we go there a lot and it was the first time service was like this. Will give them one more chance because we do love the food.

    We were looking forward to our dinner, but they seated us in the worst table right against the the service counter where every server would bump against our chairs while we are eating. They didn’t want to change our plates when they started to serve the meat claiming that the bread small dish was the one for serving the meat, and said it in a very rude way. I’ll never go back again.

    We hosted a corporate dinner for 15 people at this location. The food was very good and service was quick. Due to the open environment of the restaurant, it did feel cramped and it was hard for us to hear each other as it was rather noisy. The only thing that I would say was a poor mark on the service was the fact that it took a long time to get our check at the end. We had to chase it a few times. Overall, though-great experience!!
