11 Jun Fazenda announce debut to Liverpool Street
Premium South-American restaurant group Fazenda will open its first London restaurant in Bishopsgate this August 2023. Spanning across two floors in the 100 Bishopsgate Tower in the heart of the financial district, the 170-cover restaurant will feature an expansive standalone bar with al-fresco tables for summer drinking. The restaurant is set to be the brand’s largest restaurant to date, following successful launches in Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham, Liverpool, and Edinburgh.
Reimagining traditional cuisine from the Pampas in Argentina and Southern Brazil, Fazenda centres around a passion for the highest quality of meats and freshly prepared sides, served in authentic Rodizio style (a unique method of serving a variety of grilled meats carved at the table).
Featuring three luxurious private dining rooms, as well as an inviting ground-floor bar and lounge, Fazenda Bishopsgate will take this essence of traditional South American grill and the Rodizio concept the brand is famed for to another level, with its debut menu set to feature a new à la carte menu alongside the Rodizio. The new dishes have been inspired by recent trips to Brazil and Argentina by Executive Chef Francisco Martinez, bringing the very best of Pampas cuisine to London. The menu features exquisitely prepared dishes such as ‘Wagyu Crudo’ – a starter made up of dry-aged Wagyu Cecina and Wagyu tartare, and the ‘Asado’ – a succulent beef rib slow-cooked on the bone, amongst a selection of fish dishes.
‘We’re beyond excited to bring a taste of our roots to London for the first time. This is our most ambitious site yet, and will be much more than a Rodizio. Guests can expect a truly authentic experience of South American top-class hospitality, right through from the bar to the restaurant, and our exclusive private dining areas’ Tomás Maunier, Co-Founder of Fazenda.
The new concept will be set within an elegant, stylish, and refined space that promises to give visitors the atmosphere they need to feel special. The space throughout has been designed to enhance the warm and welcoming experience when dining at Fazenda, with the interior created by hospitality design studio Carroll Design. Every element of the space is intended to transport guests into a top-of-class cosmopolitan bar and restaurant in South America, with design elements including intricate walnut wall finishes, honed Bardiglio nuvolato marble, custom Italian leathers for seating, and stunning one-off feature chandeliers, drawing attention to the space’s high ceilings.
Complementing the à la carte and Rodizio menu, Fazenda Bishopsgate will offer a large selection of the finest Argentian, Brazilian, Chilean, and Uruguayan wines, as well as a carefully curated bespoke cocktail menu – specifically made for the London restaurant. The cocktail menu will focus on alternative and innovative expressions of South-American classics, aligning with the sophistication of the design of the restaurant.
