According to a source, Fogo de Chao is planning to open at the Burlington Mall in Burlington, with a special permit application and a cover letter within the burlington.org site indicating that it would be opening within a section of the former Sears retail space. If approved, the new restaurant would join another location of Fogo de Chao in Copley Square, and based on that and other locations, expect it to be a full-service all-you-can-eat churrascaria with a variety of meats offered.
Fogo de Chao started out in Brazil approximately 40 years ago and is now headquartered in Texas. Its website can be found at https://fogodechao.com/
