Welcome to another edition of Carlaya’s Café, part of KUNV’s Interview Series Saluting Our Favorite Places to Eat in Las Vegas. In this episode, we sit down with Oscar, General Manager of Fogo de Chão Las Vegas, and Serena from the management team, for an in-depth look at one of the Strip’s most iconic dining destinations.

Fogo de Chão brings the heart of Brazilian churrasco culture to Las Vegas with authentic tableside carving, premium fire-roasted meats, and a warm, family-style atmosphere. Oscar and Serena share what makes Fogo truly unique — from the endless parade of cuts like lamb chops, picanha, ribeye, and fraldinha, to their in-house butchering, traditional seasoning methods, and the signature Brazilian cocktail, the Caipirinha.

The conversation also highlights guest favorites such as the Chilean sea bass, lobster mac and cheese, crab cakes, and dessert standouts like the unforgettable crème brûlée cheesecake. With seasonal offerings, holiday features, and tableside service rooted in Brazilian hospitality, Fogo remains one of the most celebrated steakhouses in Las Vegas.

As a generous sponsor of KUNV 91.5, Fogo de Chão proudly provides gift cards used as thank-you gifts for listener donations, helping us continue delivering great music, community stories, and student-driven programming to Southern Nevada.
