The new location also offers to-go and butcher shop options and full-service catering, which includes on-site cooking with portable churrasco grills and gauchos.
Fogo de Chão CEO Barry McGowan said: “Since opening in Manhattan ten years ago, New Yorkers have warmly welcomed our brand and our differentiated dining experience.
“Following the recent opening and success of our Queens restaurant, we saw the growing demand for the culinary art of churrasco and knew we needed to prioritise opening in another borough soon.
“We’re looking forward to opening our third New York City location in the heart of Brooklyn at City Point.”
Earlier this month, Fogo de Chão announced that it would expand its presence in the Los Angeles Metro Area by opening a new restaurant in Thousand Oaks.
