Fogo de Chao

[gfweb]

My teenage son talked us into a dinner at the Philly Fogo. Great space (an old bank?), great service, but only so-so food. Perhaps I expected too much. The meat was OK, some great some a bit tough. What surprised me was the salad bar and sides. Chicken salad was badly overcooked, potato salad was made with russet pots and was mealy, mashed potatoes were over-whipped and glue-y. Was it an off-night or is this typical?
