I have eaten at that particular Fogo several times, and I was armed every time. I don't recall any signs...nor rats. I do recall the bathroom because it was impressively nice and clean the times I was there.

TX: San Antonio Fogo de Chao kicks out cop, apologizes

A manager at the Fogo de Chão in San Antonio told an off-duty SAPD officer in "soft uniform" (what is that?) with badge and duty sidearm to leave the restaurant because of a no-gun policy. According to the Facebook post linked in the article the officer was there for 30 minutes with his family celebrating a member's birthday when the manager decided to boot him, and told him it wouldn't matter if he was in full uniform.

Fogo has since issued an apology.
Fogo de Chao released a statement and said it has reached out to both the officer and the precinct.

"We sincerely apologize to the San Antonio Police Department and the officer in question for the incident that occurred at our restaurant. Unfortunately, a member of our team made the wrong call in San Antonio," the statement read. "We are working hard to address and correct this unfortunate lapse in judgment. We will address the policy internally and make sure our team members are clear. We support, respect and appreciate everything our law enforcement does to keep each and every one of us safe, day in and day out."
