4.6 / 5.0(5,601 reviews)

I went to Fogo Gaucho in Westlands for dinner, and it offered a really great Brazilian-style steakhouse experience. The restaurant is tucked slightly off the main road, so if you're not familiar with Nairobi, it’s easy to drive past — but finding it is absolutely worth it. The service was excellent throughout. The staff were warm, attentive, and always quick to check in. They use the classic two-sided tabs on each table — green for “keep the meat coming” and red for “I’m done” — which makes the whole experience smooth and well-coordinated. Inside, the atmosphere is lively and welcoming, making it a great spot for families or group outings. With the amount of food they serve, it’s definitely a place best enjoyed with company — far too much for one person to tackle alone. There's also a bar for those looking to have a few drinks. The variety of meats was impressive, with beef, lamb, chicken, and sausages making their rounds, all well-seasoned and served at the perfect temperature. The salad bar was fresh, nicely arranged, and even had a small dessert section that added a sweet finish to the meal. For two people, the final bill was about KSh 9,000, which felt reasonable for the quality, quantity, and the overall dining experience. If you’re craving an all-you-can-eat grill in Westlands with great service and a relaxed, social atmosphere, Fogo Gaucho is a dependable choice — just keep an eye out so you don’t miss the entrance. 🥩 Fogo Gaucho Brazilian Steakhouse – Westlands, Nairobi Fogo Gaucho is a premium Brazilian steakhouse located in the heart of Westlands, Nairobi, renowned for its all-you-can-eat meat experience (churrascaria style). It’s a favorite for meat lovers, corporate lunches, and special celebrations. 🔥 What to Expect: 🍖 Unlimited Grilled Meats: A continuous table service of perfectly grilled beef, lamb, chicken, pork, and sausages served by skilled passadores. 🥗 Buffet Bar: A wide selection of salads, sides, cheeses, and hot dishes. 🍷 Drinks & Wines: An extensive bar with wines, cocktails, and fresh juices. 🎂 Perfect for Celebrations: Ideal for birthdays, business dinners, or date nights. 🤵 Service & Ambiance: Warm lighting, elegant setup, and exceptional hospitality. 📍 Location: Fogo Gaucho Westlands is along Chiromo Road, near Delta Towers and Villa Rosa Kempinski — easily accessible and with ample parking. ⭐ Overall: An authentic Brazilian dining experience in Nairobi with top-notch service, generous portions, and an inviting atmosphere. The experience is fair for the price. The outside is very chaotic and opposite a bus rank..& there is lots of noise with minimal parking inside..the complex was just noisy but this has nothing to do with the restaurant itself.. it’s beautiful and the staff are very welcoming.. the food was okay and so many options to choose from. There were kids running around but again the restaurant has no control over this. The ambience is just not great if you’re looking for a calm environment like i was.. the service I give it a 12/10! All the waiters were very nice!

The perfectly 👌 seared selection of meats, which include lamb, chicken 🐔, beef steaks, and pork; Tender, juicy, balanced, and delicious 😋. Good presentations overall. Fresh, zesty, herbaceous, tangy, visually appealing salads, and fresh bread rolls with soup 🍲. Martin served well.
