    Delicious brunch—had the shakshuka, which was great even though the eggs were a bit overcooked. The restaurant is very nice, but we wished it had been decorated a bit for the holidays.

    Delicious food and superb service. A little loud and tight for my taste, but it is one of my favorites. So glad it’s on the Northside.

    My husband and I had a lovely time at Fogo de Chao, we had dinner around 8:45 on a Saturday, it took an extra 10~ min to find a table after our reservation time. But on a Saturday that is completely understandable. The experience was $60 per person, and I would say it was well worth the price. There were a few pieces of meat where it was just fat/gristle but they come around quite often so we were able to enjoy everything. The drinks were well priced and delicious. The staff was very helpful and observant.

    The menu isn't extremely long, but the food is creative and excellently prepared. We had a new version of their chicken dish and I had the burger which was off the menu. Both were excellent. We also had wedge salad and beef tartar, all worthwhile.
