Husband and I went to this location in Orlando over the summer, which the service kinda sucked, and he had a hard time getting any meats. We decided to go back one more time on Dec 23rd and give them another chance. Big mistake. As he got towards the end of his meal, he noticed the meat smelled off and decided to stop eating. It wasn’t long after that he started feeling sick, but we thought maybe he was dehydrated. Later that night he ended up getting violently sick. We had only ate one time that day and it was at Fogo. After he immediately felt better. Fogo served meat that was expired. He left a review on yelp and google, as anyone would do after such an experience, and Fogo deleted them. Beware…they’re hiding their bad reviews and do not care that they’ve made people sick. For the price you have to pay for their full experience, it’s a slap in the face. I will check back for my review and if it’s deleted, I’ll repost it til it stays.

Nice food let down by below-par service We went to Sonsie for dinner in October 2019 while staying in the Boston Back Bay Area. We sat in the cafe area of the restaurant which was really nice, although could have been slightly better lit. The food that we ordered was really good (pizza and Chicken) but the waitress was not very attentive, quite snappy and abrupt. Probably wouldn’t recommend as there are so many other nice places in the area!

Typical steakhouse This is a well known steak house in Dallas. Met a group of friends for the evening. Because we had a large group, we could not be seated until everyone got there. Some were stuck in traffic so we hung in the bar which was fine. Good drinks there. But as people showed up, we literally couldn't be seated until we were down to just one person outstanding. Servicer was quite rude, not unlike what you would expect in an old timey steakhouse. Tables were so close together, it was difficult to get out once seated. It was very noisy as well because of this. A friend and I ordered a bottle of white wine to share which was taken away, not kept in ice by the table. We constantly had to ask for refills and couldn't really see where the wine was taken. Most had meat or fish, sashimi which looked ok. I am vegetarian and was served a spicy tofu vegetable dish which I really couldn't eat because the sauce was so thick and sweet. They did, however, serve a complimentary caviar serving which was the highlight.

Didn't live up to the hype Went on a Tuesday night for happy hour. The bar top and patio are the only seating for the happy hour. Our server Danny told us that once we were seated. She was fantastic! Once we got to the happy hour seating, that is where the service went downhill. The server was less and less attentive as the night went on, even though there were fewer people. The goat cheese balls and calamari were good.

Hidden Gem- Italian Restaurant This place is such a gem. Its a cute quaint place. Great for a small business meeting or romantic night. Fabulous service and an extensive Italian wine list. Even the house wine was fabulous. Will be back for more business meetings.

This is the place to go in downtown Dallas. Beautiful hotel with Great Staff. Ask for Sorcha at the City Hall Lounge. The Staff was friendly and knowledgeable.The hotel was Beautiful. We didn’t rent a car. We had a nice relaxing stay. And, I want to acknowledge Sorcha who worked at City Hall. She was there to help us every step of the way. We weren’t treated as just another customer. She listened to us and made great suggestions. She made the Best Espresso Martinis!!
