**🌴 Farewell Samba, For Now! 🌴**
Hey Rio Express Fam,
It’s with a mix of *saudade* (that’s Portuguese for “big ol’ heartache”) and gratitude that we announce our Sunset Blvd location will be closing its doors on **April 30**. Yep, even the grill needs a vacation—apparently, *churrasco* smoke isn’t a sunscreen substitute. 😂
**Come say *tchau* (goodbye) and grab your last bites:**
🔥 **Picanha Steak Bowl** – The MVP of our menu, now bidding *adeus*.
🍍 **Grilled Pineapple** – Jeremy V’s fave (we’ll miss you too, pineapple!).
🍫 **Brigadeiro Chocolate** – Because goodbyes taste better with dessert.
**Why the tears?**
- Our meats are *literally* tired of being fire-roasted (they’ve booked a spa day).
- The bossa nova playlist needs a nap—it’s been looping since 2024 .
- We’re out of farofa jokes. (Okay, that one’s on us.)
**Final Fogo Hours:**
Mon-Sat: 11 AM – 9 PM | Sun: Closed (permanently, after April 1st 😢) .
**To our amazing customers:** You turned our *churrascaria* into a family. Thanks for laughing at our “pineapple on a stick” pitch and pretending our Portuguese accents were spot-on. Let’s make these last weeks *memoráveis* (memorable)!
**P.S.** The owner promises *free hugs* (and maybe a secret recipe or two) if you stop by. 👨🍳💚
📍 **5594 Sunset Blvd, Suite B** – Swing by before the grill becomes a *ghost* kitchen.
*Obrigado por tudo!* 🥩🎶
