   Although the staff went beyond to make our dinner enjoyable, we were disappointed in the meat flavors and temperature. The Market food was fresh and enjoyable.

   First time going to Fogo de Chao for brunch. The food was great and we appreciate how attentive the staff was. Delicious and worth the price.

   The pros Buffet style eating, great decore, you won’t leave hungry. The cons Expensive, questionable service, all of the sides are cold served. In conclusions it’s a good restaurant but you should only go 1 time a year. The premium experience that includes a lobster tail is not worth it. You will spend 180 for 2 people, lobster tail is the size of a shrimp. Stay away from any seafood they don’t know how to do seafood, however the meats are filling. You have about 5 meats that are on rotation. Advice Take an edible and don’t fill up off of the sides. Order the basic experience.

   Kimberly Familia our server was fantastic during our dinner. The general manager Kelvin de la Cruz checked on our table to offer assistance with the menus and the steps of service. Thank you Team National Harbor for a delightful birthday dinner for my son Diego.

   It was a special occasion for me to celebrate my reunion with my sister. I hadn't seen her in over a year, and having such a special place to celebrate the occasion was awesome. She enjoyed herself, I enjoyed myself being with her and The food and drinks were out of this world. This is the perfect place to go and we will revisit very soon.

   I have visited this location a few times. The folks bringing around the meat were hard to find in the past and this time they were coming around frequently. It would be nice if all possible meat options would come around at the beginning of the meal. We also received the mashed potatoes on the table easily 40 minutes after we started eating. We ordered lobster tails with truffle butter and never got the butter after two requests. It was also difficult to get water glasses refilled and dirty plates removed.

    It is a good restaurant, love the chain. For this location however, the wait time was 40 minutes to get seated even with reservation and we weren't compensated for the wait. The business was also reflected in the service when we were seated. Overall was still a good experience, but wasn't the quality we were expecting.
