Galeto Brazilian Steakhouse set to open in Chandler

A unique dining experience that is Galeto Brazilian Steakhouse is coming November 1st to Chandler. “Gauchos” work the dining room parading 9-14 different skewered meats for guests to choose from and sliced right to their plate.

Guests will be able to choose from beef, pork, chicken, sausage and lamb seasoned and carved table side. Meats are cooked over hot stone coals and seasoned with rock salt. Use green and red tokens to signal the Gauchos when you’re ready for the fire roasted meats.
