   I had the salmon for lunch....it came with a few sides. It was enough food for me. Remember that you don't have to get a Buffet for a meal..you can just order an entree. Great food, great service.

   The service at this location is excellent. The meat selection was great. The buffet could use some improvement and add on on choices.

   As we have been to Fogo de Chai several times, we were very dissatisfied on our most recent visit. As we invited guests to dine with us who had never been to the restaurant before, our first disappointment was that the area opened to the kitchen was not open for seating. We all opted for the full Fogo experience. I must say the variety was clearly not as abundant as it has been in the past. As far as the service, we are used to the servers being hospitable; however, this evening they seem more like indentured servants who were not happy being there. Lastly, the sides for for people were solely inadequate-the mashed potatoes were the size of an ice cream scoop. We asked for more and never received them. With so many fine restaurants in Providence, this was our last visit to this dining establishment.

   Extremely slow service. Same Parmesan pork kept coming around but had to wait FOREVER for any beef items. Buffet items need attention. Candied bacon was decent. Got billed for 3 drinks & only received 2. Overall dining experience took almost 2 1/2 hours! Painful!!!

   Crazy thing was at time to pay the bill. A magnificent restaurant provides awful pens that simply don't write to sign the check. We tried 3 different pens. Not smart business

   We feel really bad for sharing a bad review but this evening’s experience was not good. The meat servers were totally not on point…the servers were scarce and many of the cuts did not come around at all. Had to ask numerous times for the picanha and lamb. Picanha did eventually come out about 40 minutes later and the lamb never did. Tonight felt like they wanted to fill us up on the market table and sides. Will not return to this location. Only upside was that they served branzino, which we never had at Fogo. Maybe they ran out of meat and decided to cook up some fish to make up for it?

    Food was great service was excellent. Gregg was a wonderful server and Dariella checked in on us during our visit. The restaurant became very busy while we were there and it was run in such an organized manner. Great experience overall! Would go back 100%
