DALLAS – Fogo de Chão, a restaurant founded in Brazil over 46 years ago and known for its elevated churrasco dining experience, has signed a lease agreement at Crabtree. Located at 4325 Glenwood Avenue, the restaurant will further expand Fogo's presence in North Carolina and advance the brand's strategic U.S. expansion.

“North Carolina is an important milestone for Fogo de Chão, and we’re pleased to continue our expansion in the state with our new restaurant in Raleigh at Crabtree,” chief executive officer Barry McGowan said. “Raleigh’s continued growth and Crabtree's position as one of the region's leading shopping and dining destinations makes it an ideal location for our continued expansion.”

Owned and operated by Macerich, Crabtree is located in the heart of Raleigh’s high-growth Research Triangle region.

“Raleigh continues to experience tremendous growth, and we're focused on bringing concepts to Crabtree that reflect the high caliber our visitors expect,” said Eric Bunyan, senior vice president, leasing.

The new Raleigh location is part of Fogo’s accelerated growth strategy in 2026, and follows the upcoming opening of the brand’s first North Carolina restaurant in Charlotte this August.

The new restaurant will showcase Fogo's enhanced design and innovation platforms, where guests enjoy a 360-degree view of an open churrasco grill and can watch Gaucho Chefs butcher, hand carve and grill high-quality cuts of protein over an open flame.
