3. Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse
Fogo de Chão Brazilian Steakhouse, located at 600 E. Pratt St., is another top choice. Also in the Inner Harbor, the Brazilian chain specializes in grilled meats sliced at your table on demand.
It's all you can eat and, in addition to the various cuts of steak, chicken, lamb and pork, you'll find seafood and sides like traditional Brazilian black bean stew (feijoada) and caramelized bananas. There's also a salad bar with soups and sides. Yelpers give the fancy steakhouse and Brazilian spot four stars out of 750 reviews.
