Friday Night out with the family! Food was served quickly and it was delicious. We had the waiter constantly pouring our drinks and checking in on us . Price is high compared to Fogo de chao in comparison to what you receive. The sides are your typical fries , salad and dry rice . Overall good experience. I would explore the menu instead of ordering the hercules mix for two on out next visit. - J O
