Took a bit to get our drinks and food order but everything else was amazing! The meats were flavorful and cooked perfectly and the drinks were just as good ?? overall a great birthday experience. Will definitely be back.

We had a birthday dinner for a good friend and were happy with Ipanema. The meats were all just right. The salad bar and feijoada were all wonderful. The roasted pineapple really enhanced the meats. Tasty cocktails, wonderful service. Certainly worth a special evening.

Okay! I’ll be honest, I have never experienced Brazilian food before and had zero idea of what to expect. We have never been to Seattle, long trip, walked around and happened to try this place on a whim. 10/10. If you haven’t tried Brazilian food before… do it! It was fun! And the food was amazing. If you don’t like meat… the salad bar (haven’t seen one of those in years!) was pretty good! Loved it. Do it!

The food had no flavor, the meat was dry and not very unpleasant, besides it is the first establishment where the 20% tips are mandatory and cannot be changed, I would not recommend it

My expectations were very high of this restaurant, as I have been here before and excited to go back and have the experience of great meat and even better service.Unfortunately, this time was a completely subpar experience wherein every piece of meat was over salted and seasoned in ways that were not expected. The cheese-steak steak was the most salty and inedible. The service component of this experience was also completely out of the ordinary where I was waiting several minutes between meat options. We noticed that there was actually one person serving the restaurant for at least half of our stay, coupled with our table being at the end of the line and always being offered the remnants of the meat on the skewer, which consistent scarce and unappetizing.I’m sincerely disappointed in this experience - and for the price point I obviously expected way more.I will not be returning. Fogo de Chao is an absolutely, and undoubtedly the superior Brazilian steakhouse.

Extremely poor service from the waiter, took over 35 minutes to receive our bill. When I asked if we could get it, he reprimanded me. Auto gratuity of 20%, so he doesn’t care. And we weren’t the only table with this issue. Table of 4 cost $360+, no drinks.

We had a very mediocre evening while dining here. Reservations were made a month in advance for a window table. That was not honored although the restaurant was only half full. We waited 20 minutes before being acknowledged by our waiter. We ordered drinks (four of us.) After another extraordinary wait, we went to the salad bar. The pre-dinner cocktails arrived after completing our salads and beginning the meat-eating feast. I asked for a wine list that arrived at our meal's end. Thoughtless service with no regard to pacing, timing, or our enjoyment. The tableside servers that presented the proteins were all friendly and helpful. The meats offered varied wildly in their taste and tenderness. While the Picanha was excellent the same could not be said for other cuts of beef. There was a disappointingly small selection of poultry (only chicken legs), pork (only one oddly gray offering), and seafood (miniature shrimp). The salad bar was extensive with some very tasty selections even offering Feijoada. Two of the six desserts offered had a Brazilian twist. One was not available. Consequently, in the Brazilian restaurant for the birthday celebration, we ended up with Tiramisu.
What a great experience! Visiting from Portland, found this ? gem ! Mom has never had brazilian before , she Loved it!Service was on point. everyone was a great family team serving our table, quaint, lots of selections food & Meat sweats , that was overly delicious, and that Pineapple yummmm ! Thank you

Amazing food, a friendly and attentive staff and again...amazing food.
We love coming here for our date nights. The setup is very beautiful, and the music fits the vibe.Our favorites are the parmeasan pork, filet mignon, ribeye steak, and the garlic picanha. My husband loves their caprinhas, and the strawberry lemon drop is dangerously good.Today, our server was Elijah, and he was super helpful. He gave us extra cheese balls when I asked and even comp'd a drink I ordered, but didn't end up drinking. Our conversation was very easygoing, and felt very friendly. Definitely can't wait for our next date!
