Columbus, Ohio — Fogo de Chão, the internationally renowned restaurant from Brazil, has signed a lease agreement to open its first Ohio location in Columbus. The new 7,245-square-foot restaurant is scheduled to open later this year in the Polaris Towne Center, one of the city’s largest retail and dining destinations.

“We have long anticipated expanding our presence into the state of Ohio and are excited to share our authentic culinary experience from Brazil with the Columbus community soon,” says Barry McGowan, chief executive officer of Fogo de Chão. “This city’s vibrant energy and growing dining scene align with our mission to provide an immersive dining experience complete with value, variety and customization for any occasion.”

Designed in partnership with global design agency Harrison, the new restaurant will feature an expansive dining room centered around an open churrasco grill, offering guests a 360-degree view of gaucho chefs demonstrating the culinary art of churrasco. The Market Table will anchor the restaurant and feature seasonal salads, fresh superfoods, cured meats, antipasti and more.
