Fogo de Chão
The Atlas Review
The BBQ Atlas
Fogo de Chão brings four decades of Serra Gaúcha churrasco to Brasília's ASA SUL, where the meat does the talking.
The brand was founded in 1979 by brothers from Rio Grande do Sul and has spent that time proving rodízio-style service and open-fire churrasco belong in the same sentence. Respect the meat, respect the fire, respect the time — it's the only idea that matters.
This outpost sits in the Clubes Esportivos district. The kitchen works tableside, carving from the spit with the kind of unhurried precision that tells you everything you need to know about how seriously they take the work. No shortcuts, no theatre — just skilled cooking and good beef, allowed to speak for itself.
