Excellent food. Almost everything is gluten free including Brazilian cheese bread. Only thing to avoid is Italian bread (which is separate away from the salad bar) and one of the chicken meats.

They always know what is safe and what is not (and it's no trouble to ask), and we've never had an issue with cross-contamination. Majority of the food is GF. Great service, delicious food. I'm vegetarian and I don't mind at all when carnivore DH wants to go here - the "salad" bar is to die for.

I went last night for the first time. when I asked if they are gluten free, she said mostly. And told me a few things. She said she would send a manager out to give me a more complete list. so I waited. after about 5 min I decided I could figure it out. after I finished my first plate the manager comes over to let me know that they are 95% gluten free! unfortunately I ate one of the items that are not. that's my luck. I think if the waitress would have known, or the manager had come sooner... but just so you know. don't eat the Cesar salad dressing. ugh

After the explanation from the host I thought I was safe with the meat here. One of the chickens available was soaked in beer. Had a sinus headache that night and for a few days following. So, just be proactive in asking about every thing you put on your plate.

Other than that, was a delicious meal.

As always, this place never fails you....the GF rolls are delicious and they will let you know which meats you can't eat.

I could make a meal of just the bread at Fogo de Chao. I think next time I go I will just get the amazingly huge salad bar to leave more room for bread! Make sure you tell the waiter that you are gf because 2 of the meats contain gluten (a sausage & something else cooked in beer - those two skewers come around together though) & they will alert the runner of those meats not to give it to you.

Pricey but worth it for a special occasion. The salad bar is not just a salad bar, there are so many choices! The meats are outstanding. The real treat for me is being able to eat the bread....gluten free cheese bread. It's awesome!

We went here for dinner on September 16, 2023, and I can’t say enough good things about it. I made a reservation through OpenTable and noted my gluten and lemon allergies. The host greeted us and gave me a list of items containing gluten. Then a manager walked me around the “marketplace” bar of sides to tell me what would work for me. They also brought some GF mini rolls made of cassava flour, and noted that the fried polenta was made in a separate fryer.

The place was awesome for people with Celiac. Almost everything was gluten free. Salad, cheeses, and plenty of meats. Even the soup was labeled and gluten free.

As a celiac, I would be very careful of this restaurant. The staff is NOT knowledgeable about what is in the food. However there is a giant book of allergens you can ask for. I did my best, but it is hard to consult the book with everything in real time and there is gluten bread made on site as well as almost all of the desserts which have gluten. Additionally, almost all of the bar food contains gluten. Be wary of anything fried.

We had a great meal. Our server was kind and helpful and shared with us the complete allergen list. Our daughter with celiac was able to eat everything she wanted to, including the bread at the table, and had no issues or symptoms.

This place used to be so good and I knew what I could eat and what was not safe. Now, not worth the money.
