Gauchos carve meat tableside at this bustling churrascaria; one of many in the city and suburbs, it's also among the best.

Dining room at Fogo de Chao, Chicago, ILIt’s safe to say that the all-you-can-eat, one-price-gets-everything arrangement of the churrascaria, or Brazilian-style steakhouse, has taken hold, and this spot --- with its high ceilings, moody lighting and spacious floor plan --- is at the top of its ilk. Its salad bar, of all things, is most worthy of accolades. The gauchos (waiters) who slice your meat right off the skewered roast are a little too focused on their craft but they sure are efficient. So, stop counting the calories and dive into the sizzling, spit-fired top sirloin, young leg of lamb and snappy sausages. And do not miss the garlicky picanha whenever it makes the rounds.
