This location of Fogo de Chao is simply the best. The salad bar was kept fully stocked, which was priceless for those in our party only having that. The service was top notch, our server constantly staying in touch making sure we had anything we wanted. The beauty of this restaurant is that you walk in and everyone can start eating. We had a large group and everyone was happy. For dessert, you must get the Fladgate Port and Crème Brûlée.

Absolutely amazing. Had reservations and came early to start at the bar. The food was perfect. From the salad bar, to the meats, to the dessert. Drinks were very good, as well. The service was impeccable. We never had an empty plate or glass, and were checked on continuously. Highly recommend this establishment.

We've tried this location in DC and the one at the National Harbor. Prefer the DC location over the National Harbor location in Prince George County. Better Customer Service and attention to detail!

Wow. Not at all like it used to be. Tables were crammed together. Service was spotty and we waited a long time between meat offerings. Salad bar was ok but not impressive. Many meats were very rare even when we requested medium. The restaurant was packed to the point of overcrowded. Lots of larger groups and huge parties taking over. Not worth the cost and an overall disappointment. We won’t be back.

Fogo de Chão is a favorite restaurant in Washington DC. The good is excellent, as is the service. The $18 salad bar remains probably the best deal in DC. On this particular occasion, there were two large, loud parties at opposite ends of the dining room, so the noise level was uncharacteristically high. This is not usually the case.
