The food was very good-however the service was poor. We went for an early dinner at 5 pm and had to wait a little bit to start getting served, which was okay. But then we requested for the cheese and honey when we were done and it took 40 minutes for them to get this to us. We told multiple servers, but it still took this long, which was unacceptable.

We loved Foga! The food and atmosphere are beyond compare. The salad bar has so many interesting things to choose from. The service is outstanding. I have paid a lot more and gotten a lot less. I want to go back soon.

This is my 2nd time coming to this location my first experience was not desirable. However this 2nd visit was amazing and will definitely coming again. I traveled 1hr 1/2 to come dine with my family. I was extremely surprised with this visit. Kyle our server was so helpful and made sure to check on our table and was very attentive. There was certain cuts of meats that weren’t coming to our table and Kyle made sure to get them over immediately. He is very friendly and polite. Thanks Kyle!
