Unfortunately, I didn’t feel safe eating here. I told the waiter I had celiac disease, and she said “oh yeah, most of our menu is gluten free,” and handed me a dirty, wrinkled, printed spreadsheet of allergen info. I noticed there were several meats and menu items marked not gluten free, but the allergen info didn’t correspond with the QR code menu, so it was impossible to figure out what was safe. The waiter didn’t offer any explanation or guidance – just gave me that spreadsheet and left. And, the tables didn’t have dedicated waiters, basically random waiters would stop by different tables, so I didn’t feel confident that the kitchen could consistently prep my food without CC. I left without eating.
Not celiac related, but this location was dirty and loud. There were food scraps and dirty napkins on the ground throughout the space. The floor was all carpet and it just felt gross. They charge $62-150 a plate, so I expected it to be a lot nicer. Overall bad experience.

So good!!! The churrasco experience is amazing, and all of the meat is delicious. The Brazilian Cheese Bread is also amazing. Almost everything is gluten free except for the chicken, italian bread, & scalloped potatoes, so there is little risk of CC especially with the salad bar. Highly recommend, even though it is a bit on the pricier side.

Went here for my birthday and the experience was amazing! Though the staff wasn’t extremely knowledgeable off the bat, they printed me a full allergen sheet that listed all of their food items. The servers were very friendly and happily looked into any of my concerns.
Most of the food is gluten free and the cheese bread is to die for!!

Have been multiple times with my SO who is a Celiac. The staff was great! They knew which meats he could eat (all but 2) and which other menu items were safe. The market table and bar are mostly gluten free. We were able to find a checklist online with all the allergens listed for each item before we went for the first time. We have been back multiple times since. There have been no issues with cross contamination thus far.

Servers were familiar with gluten and provided me with a gf menu! Most items are gluten free and the entire salad/market bar is gluten free. I also got a crème brûlée that was phenomenal. Everything was so tasty and the staff was very friendly!

All meats are gluten free! There is a separate bar with salads and other appetizer type foods, majority is gluten free. I suggest asking for a copy of the allergy list which is very comprehensive, not only gluten containing foods are listed but a number of other allergens. The food was very tasty! Highly recommended by a sensitive Celiac.

Mostly everything here was gluten free. I was hesitant at first and took some precautions, but everything was great. If you haven’t eaten this style before, they come around to your table with a slab of meat and slice off a portion if you want to try it.
There are several meats that are not gluten free, but there were more than enough options without it. Editing to add, I returned in May 2024 and pretty much everything was gluten free now! Ask for the allergy list as soon as you are seated.
I was skeptical of the buffet, but [at least on the night I was there] almost everything on the table was gluten free. I stood there and watched it for 5 minutes before deciding it was worth it to check out a couple items.
***added a star back because last time I went the staff was knowledgeable and helpful**
Taking off a star for safety due to the waitstaff; somewhat knowledgeable, but also apathetic and not willing to get answers very quickly (like 30 minutes into the meal when everyone else was already eating). My primary complaint was the servers — one was a little weird encouraging us to drink and drive (we did not, of course), and one just did not help at all. We went somewhat close to the opening and seemed like a decent amount of turnover with the waitstaff, so perhaps it was a logistical issue and has since improved. I had a vegetarian friend who went and found plenty to eat to hang with her family, but I’m not sure I would recommend that for the price point. I did not get sick, and was very full :)

Always a yummy delicious time at Fogo! You can look online for a paper allergen menu of what has gluten and what doesn't but most things don't! Came here because we needed a quick safe GF bite and I felt comfortable. Delicious meats as always and getting the bread bites is the best part of the meal. I probably had 3 baskets alone. Staff is knowledgeable and can help you navigate the choices of meats.

A meat lover Celiac's dream. The traveling meat is all gf and most of the salad bar is as well. The table bread is Pao which is naturally gf, as are the croutons at the salad bar.
The service is still getting their feet under them so patience may be required.
