Texas De Brazil Churrascaria Reaches Milestone with 50th Restaurant Opening Today

Texas de Brazil Churrascaria, the largest Brazilian steakhouse chain in the world, reaches a new milestone today as the family-owned group's 50 th restaurant opens at Sawgrass Mills Mall in Sunrise, Florida. The new 7,000 square foot dining destination accommodates over 200 guests and features an open-view grill in the dining area, a wine wall, and a cozy lounge area. Located in the largest outlet and value retail shopping destination in the United States, this marks the ninth Florida location for Texas de Brazil.

"We feel fortunate and very proud to open our 50 th restaurant with the same leadership team responsible for opening our first location over 18 years ago," says Salim Asrawi, Chief Operating Officer, Texas de Brazil. "We look forward to complementing this location's dynamic retail and entertainment environment with earnest hospitality and the culinary authenticity we strive to deliver to every guest we welcome."

Texas de Brazil treats guests to an upscale, continuous dining experience and a service style that is alive and theatrical. Dinner begins at the enticing 50-item salad area featuring Brazilian specialties, fresh salads, imported cheeses, charcuterie, roasted vegetables, smoked salmon and creamy lobster bisque. Renowned for its genuine rodizio-style dining, patrons are also treated to freshly-grilled meats carved tableside from skewers by "gauchos" who deliver succulent lamb chops, leg of lamb, picanha, filet mignon, chicken breasts wrapped in bacon, Brazilian sausages and more. Diners pace their feasting with a simple green or red disk that indicates when they're ready to welcome additional servings. Every Texas de Brazil restaurant uses the time-honored method of grilling meat over charcoal, resulting in savory aroma and exceptional flavor. Tempting desserts are served a la carte for those seeking sweets.
