Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This restaurant has some of the best modern Italian cuisine in the country and certainly the best in Birmingham. I’ve been time and time again because their food and service is so wonderful. The menu is simple with many past dishes some good pizza choices...and a few different side orders. What the menu lacks in choice, is made up for knowing that everything that leaves the kitchen is bang on. The service you get is incredibly accommodating. Fogo will serve you a pasta you can’t refuseMore

This was a wonderful find. Small, friendly family run restaurant with AMAZING food. The flavour combinations of the pizzas and pasta was inspirational. Staff (were they all family?) were friendly and knowledgable about the food they were serving. Truly worth a visit or 3!

I went to Fogo three times in a row while I was here. The seafood risotto is amazing and fresh. I ordered Cosa Nostra Pizza two times, that’s how much I liked it. The meat here is delicious. And the waitress was very kind all...of the times. Can’t wait to come back!More

Unusually, left the booking to a friend for our group of four. Outside very inauspicious, on a dual carriageway. But we were expecting only a local Italian. So on looking at the menu, we gobsmacked by full on central London pricing. Like 42 quid for...a main course. (OK it was the special lamb, but still not what we were expecting.) Anyway we are not especially price sensitive and were already sitting down and hungry, so decided to persevere. Good decision! Genuinely excellent food cooked to order, backed up by great service. Worth every penny. Fantastic octopus, prawns, and of course the lamb (!) It was only then we checked TA to find we were in one of the top 20 restaurants in Birmingham. Result! There is no cheap wine. Only good wine reasonably priced. The restaurant is small so they really need a high minimum spend and cannot waste tables on people coming in to share a garlic bread! But just ignore the face value, and enjoy. The four of us ate two courses each, shared two bottles of good wine, some free limoncello, and it was ~£260. So not actually bad at all. Can highly recommendMore

Love this Italian run bt Greeks I think?? But they do it so well!!! I go to Edgbaston for cricket quite alot so always head for Fogo, twice on this trip. Usually go pasta/pizza on a two night visit & it was brilliant as ever,...both meals. Not the cheapest place but I have NO problem paying for excellent food/service. Draught beer to boot!! I'll be back in a couple of weeks for an Ashes visit, two more trips here in a three night stay, for sure!! 10 out of ten, simple!!!More

Just wow.... We went here after a recommendation from a friend and glad we did. It is not a big premises so I feel we were very lucky to get a table without a booking and it quickly filled once we got in. It's not...cheap, but that's never a problem when the food is great quality. I went for the Lamb and a dish at near £40 for a main needs to be superb and this was, cooked pink and to perfection the lamb, a not insubstantial amount was all perfect, the dauphinoise potatoes were to die for. Everything was cooked to perfection. The two pasta dishes my partner and daughter ordered were of the same quality. Desserts, well, after settling on what we wanted (we wanted them all) we went for the Tirimasu and two of the ice cream dishes, all amazing. If you want a cheap meal, this isn't the place for you, if you want great service, great food and in a wonderful atmosphere then this is the place to come.More

Lovely service but food was ok. Too over priced. Sea bass was dry no sauce just the fish veg and potatoes! Same with the lamb, just lamb veg and potatoes. Chapters in Edgbaston is amazing in comparison.

This was our first visit to the restaurant, the staff were amazing, really friendly and welcoming, the owner himself checked on us to see if everything was ok. We ordered wood fired pizzas, the food was on point served with a smile. It has a...beautiful atmosphere, a real hidden gem of Birmingham! Definitely recommend, looking forward to visiting again soon.More

We spotted Fogo on instagram, we decided to have a mid week date night. Fogo has a lovely atmosphere, with a comfortable setting. Our food was amazing, great taste and just the right serving. I ordered a delicious bottle of red, it seems we have...found our new favourite Italian. Our waitress Ifi was very friendly and paid great attention to all the diners. Thank you Fogo we will definitely be returning.More

Went here on Saturday on route to the theatre. We were eating early and thought it would be quiet but it was already very busy, you definitely need to book. Explained we were in a rush and they were happy to ensure our food came...quickly. We only had mains but the pizza's were divine as well as different from the usual pizza selection most places offer. Finished off with fab coffee! Lovely and friendly staff.More
