Quick info
About Fogo de Chão Manchester - Original from Brazil
Fogo de Chão Manchester - Original from Brazil is a Brazilian steak house on The Avenue in Spinningfields, Manchester, formerly trading as Fazenda. It carries a churrasco tradition that began in Southern Brazil in 1979 and serves it rodizio-style, so guests receive cuts carved at the table instead of ordering a single plate. Servers go around continuously with a variety of cuts, picanha among them, explain where each one comes from and ask about specific requests. An open grill sits in the dining room beside dry-aged meat fridges, and gaúcho chefs cook in full view of guests. A salad bar and cold buffet runs alongside hot sides, with halloumi among them. Lobster tail can be added to the main meat service. The meal can finish with dessert, ice cream or a dessert wine pairing.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return mostly for the carved meat, praising the variety of cuts, steaks cooked perfectly, and the picanha in particular. Close behind are the sides and the cold buffet: the plantain, the fries, halloumi that won over one diner who usually dislikes it, the sauce served with the cheese bread, and the salad bar. Two diners added lobster tail alongside the meat and found it succulent and flavourful. Service earns repeated credit, with servers described as friendly, knowledgeable about where each cut comes from, and attentive to dietary needs. The criticisms are small but specific. One reviewer found the steak a little too salty, another found the chicken quite dry, a returning customer preferred the place under its old Fazenda name, and one noted the price had gone up slightly. One reviewer says the meat is halal apart from the pork, and a diner who avoids pork was noticed by the carvers without having to say so.

“Had a fantastic experience at Fogo de chao Manchester. The service was excellent from start to finish, and Shaq was absolutely wonderful. He was friendly, attentive, professional and genuinely made us feel welcome. Nothing felt like too much trouble, and his service really added to the overall experience. Great atmosphere, great service, and a special mention to Shaq for going above and beyond. Definitely a place I’d recommend and happily return to.”

“The food tonight was absolutely amazing! Just as same as the service especially “Lene” the waitress who was looking after us! She was so lovely, making sure we’ve got everything we need with our food because of our dietary choices/requirements. Thank you 🙏🏼 we will visit again for sure. Xx”

“I’ve been coming here since it was Fazenda, and it’s still a great place to eat. I would say, though, that I preferred it when it was Fazenda. The steak was a little too salty for my taste, but everything else was really good. A special mention to the staff member who served us—I’m not sure if his name was Zeth or Zed, but he was amazing and made our experience even better. Great service overall!”

“We went here for an evening meal early afternoon 27th June on Saturday. I have been here to Fazenda before and was concerned it might lose the old feel. However this was the best time i have been here and the first time under the new brand. Every moment from the first entry and meeting the front of house staff, through to the servers and passadors carving the met was fantastic. The food was cooked fantastic. Loved all the meat and all the cold buffet and other things. Everywhere was clean and the ice cream was mega too. Even the wine and the beer... Price gone up slightly but for the service and food , it is well worth the money. I want to give a special thank you to Pheniqua, who was delightful! It was also my friends first time here and he normally finds something to complain about, but he also thought everything about the meal and visit was great!”

“Amazing food and experience. The servers kept on coming constantly with a variety of meats. They even asked for any specific requests which is quite nice. Over all a good night out. Also the meat is all halal, apart from the pork.”
