Florida-based Terra Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse opened at Fashion Mall Commons, 8487 Union Chapel Rd., last week.

Fans of Fogo de Chao will be familiar with the concept that has servers roaming the dining room to slice slow-roasted meats onto plates tableside and the availability of an all-you-can-eat hot and cold food bar with cured meats, cheeses, salads, soups and sides.

The Terra Gaucha owners are former Fogo de Chao restaurants, said native Brazilian Paulo Simonetti, one of the four founders. 

Simonetti spent 23 years at Fogo de Chao for 23 years, having joined the company in 2001 when it operated only three stores.

His team launched Terra Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse in 2015 in Jacksonville, Florida. The Indianapolis store is the company’s fourth.

Of the two largest churrascaria chains – Fogo de Chao and Texas de Brazil – only Fogo has a location in Indiana, an Indianapolis restaurant at 117 E. Washington.
