I’m a Fogo de Chão fan and have been since I experienced my first churrascaria (grilled BBQ) at their midtown location. I couldn’t resist heading to City Point Mall in Albee Square in Brooklyn for the opening.

This location features an open churrasco grill, where customers can watch their chefs butcher, prepare and grill various meats over an open flame. Like all others in the chain, it offers a salad bar—Market Table—like no other.

We nibbled hors d’oeuvres before being seated with a seafood tower at our table and selecting from the Market Table. The roving waitstaff then started circling the room with grilled meats to be sliced from large skewers onto our plates—that is, until we were satiated and asked them to stop.

We had no room, but did sample the desserts.

I highly recommend a visit to Fogo de Chão.
