    My husband and I had the best time dining at the Irvine Fogo de Chao last night! We both walked away so full, satisfied, and touched. The servers went the extra mile to make sure I had well-done meat choices since I am pregnant. Multiple staff members checked in on us and made us feel seen. We had two touching conversations with a server and our server, Mikey. It was the best night!

    The over all experience wasn’t bad. I was disappointed in the selection of meats. We had the same 4 meats come to our table at least 4 times. There meats on the menu that we never saw. For as much as it cost, you want to get the full experience.

    First, we had a reservation here for our anniversary but the wait line was still 15-30 mins. We were seated after that and was approached by a waitress, explained to us the experience and took our order. After saying “no worries i got you” she never went back again. We had to call another waitress to ask for water because we were eating so much meat it only make sense that water should be there first. Salad bar was decent. Food was superb. Meat was off the grill and still smoking when served. There was just a lot of people, so when you are in a date, i don't think this is the place for you. The price for the experience? For $71 dollars a head, for me was overpriced. There are other restaurant with more choices of meat, quieter, more decent salad bar, and faster service.

    The service was so bad today. Never saw our server. Ordered wine that never showed up. No water service. Dirty plates stacked up on our table. Had to ask someone else for our check.

    Reservation has no meaning. You’re going to wait for more than 20-40mins after your reservation time.

    I reserved a table for birthday party at 8:00. But I got seated at 9 outside not even inside. It was no point of making reservations.

    While we understand understaffing cannot be helped sometimes and those who were there were working hard, but it did make for a less than wonderful birthday dinner for our party. Dirty plates were not cleared and clean plates were never brought, drinks were very slow to arrive, as was the bill and my credit card was gone for quite a while. There did not seem to be any management around- The food was all quite good and it was very full and hard to have a conversation without almost yelling. Interesting concept, but won’t be in a hurry to return.
