    I'm thinking D'Amico. Been to Fogo too many times, D'Amico is usually tough to justify.

    I personally thought that i'd love Fogo. But my god i hurt for a week after eating all of that meat.(go ahead, let the funnies begin)

    I have really enjoyed restaurant week in the past! There are alot of places that i would have never tried had it not been for the deals provided during this week of food coma. omnomnom

    Oddly, I think what makes Fogo worth going to is the "salad" bar.

    It's not that "odd". Many people that i've talked to say the same thing. You'd have to be a Sheen in order to enjoy THAT much meat.

    I've gone to Fogo every time, except the last Restaurant week. I plan to continue that tradition. All I ask for is Filet lol.

    Their lamb got really good too, FYI. They must have changed it because it was flavorless and overcooked a while back. Damn tasty now.

    I wish I could find a place with really good dim sum. We've tried a lot of places but so far no luck.

    It's the best we've found so far. Some stuff is good, some is bad. The service is horrible.

    I first experienced Seven during a restaurant week a couple of years ago! Good steaks, good sushi, and the purple/blue mashed potatoes were to die for!!

    The last time I had Purple/Blue mashed potatoes I think it had mushrooms involved and I thought I was going to die.

    Similar but not the same experience.

    Sanctuary is our favorite spot - wife & I have reservations for the last day of RW. Highly recommend if you are looking for a smaller place.
