Quite literally the best crab omelette I've ever eaten. The ambiance and decor are pitch-perfect: not too formal, with just enough elegant simplicity to add to the overall experience. The staff are knowledgeable professionals who know how to set and serve a table. Gertrude's is my go-to when friends and family visit, or when I want a dining experience that is a cut above!

It’s always an excellent time at Fogo de Chão. We devoured the food, talked, and enjoyed wine and caipirinhas. I went with my wife, sister, and brother-in-law, and we must have spent 4 hours there. Everything was incredible, but the most memorable dishes were the Parmesan chicken, filet mignon, spicy sausage, and garlic steak. The service was top-notch, and the ambiance made it a perfect evening. Highly recommend it!
