Cypress Welcomes FOGO DE CHÃO, the Restaurant’s Fourth Houston Location

Leading Restaurant Brand Debuts its Newest Location in Cypress with a Community Commitment

Fogo de Chão, the internationally-renowned restaurant from Brazil known for its elevated churrasco dining experience, opened its newest restaurant in Cypress in December 2024. The new restaurant, located at 19820 Northwest Freeway in the Crossroads neighborhood and is the fourth location in the Houston area joining other restaurants in Friendswood, Houston Westheimer, and The Woodlands.

As part of their introduction to the community, Fogo will donate 10% its first week of sales to the Houston Food Bank, an
organization that provides food for better lives in 18 counties in southeast Texas through its 1,500 community partners.

The Cypress restaurant showcases a seasonal Market Table, dry-aged meat lockers for in-house aging, a lively indoor Bar Fogo area ideal for all-day happy hour, and private dining spaces available for guests to reserve for any occasion.

“We look forward to opening in Cypress and bringing the Culinary Art of Churrasco to Fogo fans and new guests seeking an unforgettable dining experience,” said Barry McGowan, Chief Executive Officer of Fogo de Chão. “At Fogo, we’ve always focused on feeding our guests and communities and we’ve been fortunate to be a part of the Houston community for the past 25 years. That’s why we’re excited to collaborate with the Houston Food Bank to continue to provide hunger relief to those in need in the Houston area.”

Leading the Cypress team is General Manager Mari Chacon, a 5 year veteran of Fogo who most recently served as a leading General Manager in the Los Angeles area. Mari and her team look forward to becoming part of the Cypress community and providing over 100 local jobs for talented individuals committed to delivering an exceptional experience to all guests.
