Fogo de Chão — Barra da Tijuca

Fogo de Chão is a churrascaria steakhouse built on the rodízio model: servers move through the room with skewers of grilled meat, slicing onto your plate until you've had enough. The brand has been doing this since 1979, and this Barra da Tijuca outpost carries that same approach — the meat is the point, the service is attentive, and the experience is built around abundance and craft.

You'll find it on Avenida das Américas in the neighbourhood's commercial heart. Come hungry, come ready to eat, and let the kitchen do what it does.
