    Incredibly overpriced. There is not an option under $40. The signature churrasco experience is over $70 and, while flavorful, most of the offerings are low cost cuts that a normal person could not come close to consuming $70 worth of. The salad bar is average. Other items taste mass-produced. Service is erratic, amateur and one constantly feels they are being upsold and marketed to. Overall just not worth it.

    Paid $72 for the rodizio. Waited a long time between meats. Never got the pork xhop, chicken in parm, cheese with honey, sausage, chicken thigh. Told the waiter we were never offered these items. Definately didn't get what I paid for. You have to fill up on the cold salad bar to leave full. Chicken salad not worth $72 per person. Never going back. A more than $400 check and left hungry.

    It was ok. Was expecting more as I've been to the NYC one several times. Hot buffet was small, as the cold one. Meat was supposed to be coming instead of wait for it and request. If they improve the frequency of the meat, I would give another star.

    2nd time at Fogo. Wasn’t as amazing as the first but still good. I feel like I was constantly looking for my servers. I didn’t get sausage with my churrasco experience. But I would return.

    We had been to Fogo before but a different location. This was our first time at the Bridgewater location as well as our first time doing an experience. The Tomahawk/Tequila experience was very good. We had a great time and would definitely recommend to others if they did it again. The selections of tequila were good for the tasting and the Tomahawk was amazing. For a tasting we had plenty of food and left stuffed. The entire staff to the hostess and servers and bartenders were all amazing and top notch.

    Todd, it's wonderful to hear you enjoyed the Tomahawk/Tequila experience at our location. We’re thrilled that both the food and service met your expectations. We’d love to welcome you back soon. Joining Fogo Rewards might be perfect for you, offering exclusive benefits and more.

    Fogo de Chao was good. But on a scale, I give it 7 of 10. The food was tasty and the Rodizio was plentiful. But I struggle with the price of $72 per person. I know we didn’t eat $72 of meat each. The salads and sides were fair in quality but again not $72 per person fair. It was definitely an experience but I think I the rodizios in Newark, NJ are a little bit better.
