| - I've visited Fogo de Chao in San Antonio and San Jose, but I enjoyed Rodeo more. The salad bar is more diverse (I appreciate any place that serves guacamole as a side dish), the meats arrive more frequently, and the chefs pay close personal attention to you. We spoke with him multiple times throughout the evening, and he could name the ingredients in each sauce without any trouble. We also learned that the pao de queijo was gluten-free, if that's a concern. We had some special dietary requirements and all the members of staff were very patient with us.
If you're worried about noise, just go in the middle of the week. The live band is a weekend thing, and that's when it gets loud. But the food is just as good mid-week, and you'll still have a great time. Ironically, this place is probably great for vegetarians, despite being a Brazilian steakhouse. The salads and side dishes are more than enough to keep vegetarians happy. So, this would be a great spot to bring a group. It's worth the climb up the stairs!
