Fogo de Chão Miami: Authentic Brazilian Steakhouse in Coral Gables

The Art of Churrasco in Coral Gables

At Fogo de Chão in Coral Gables, the tradition of churrasco is alive and well. Since 1979, this Brazilian steakhouse has been perfecting the culinary art of fire-roasting meats, a heritage rooted in the mountainous landscapes of Rio Grande do Sul. The founders grew up on a traditional Southern Brazilian farm, learning the cooking techniques that would become the backbone of the restaurant's identity.

The experience begins with the "Full Churrasco Experience," where gaucho chefs carve an array of fire-roasted cuts tableside. The menu features signature Brazilian cuts like Picanha (prime part of the top sirloin) and Fraldinha (bottom sirloin), alongside a freshly curated Market Table and authentic sides. For a limited time, guests can enjoy a Fogo Four Course meal, a selection of the most popular cuts paired with seasonal offerings and a decadent dessert.

A Wine Program with Distinction

The restaurant's commitment to quality extends to its wine list, which earned a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence in 2023. The Founders Tribute Wine Collection, featuring wines from Mendoza, Chile, and California, is designed to pair perfectly with the menu. The Jorjão Reserva Malbec, for example, complements the leaner cuts like the Double Bone-In Pork Chop, while the Eulila Red Blend is recommended with the Lamb Picanha and savory dishes like the Dry-Aged Tomahawk.

The Full Experience

Beyond the main dining room, Bar Fogo offers Brazilian-inspired small plates, award-winning wines, and cocktails. The restaurant also caters to groups and events, with private dining options available. The Fogo Rewards program adds an extra layer of heat, offering exclusive birthday churrasco and $1 Caipirinha Tuesdays.

In Coral Gables, Fogo de Chão delivers a genuine taste of Brazilian steakhouse tradition, backed by a legacy of quality and a respect for the heritage of churrasco.
