This internationally-famous Brazilian steakhouse is finally opening in Kendall
Fogo de Chao is coming to Kendall. The popular Brazilian steakhouse, famous for serving grilled meats delivered to your table on skewers, will open its third Miami location on Feb. 17. The restaurant, which already has locations in Coral Gables and Miami Beach, will be part of Downtown Dadeland. The restaurant features a large dining room, with an open churrasco grill as the centerpiece. Diners will get a 360 degree view of the chefs butchering, carving and grilling different cuts of meat, including a bone-in ribeye, lamb chops and the Fogo specialty, picanha, which is the prime part of top sirloin. Other choices are available, too, including chicken, pork and seafood. The new restaurant will also feature a seasonal Market Table, which is what the brand calls its famous salad bar. Named after the markets of Brazil, the Market Table is way beyond an average salad bar, featuring a rotating offering of specialty salads, seasonal recipes, cheese and charcuterie, smoked salmon and a black bean stew with sausage. Don't want steak? You can easily fill up on what you find at the Market Table. Fogo de Chao will also have dry-aged meat lockers for in-house aging and private dining areas.
