Chama Rodizio Opens in Glen Cove

Chama Rodizio, a Portuguese barbecue restaurant, is now open for business in Glen Cove.

Located at 284 Glen Street, Chama offers an ala carte menu of Portuguese specialties and a “Rodizio style” dining option with an all-you-can eat barbeque meat experience.

“We combine the Portuguese and Brazilian traditions of skewering and barbecuing meats,” the eatery states on its Facebook page. And while the owners – Jose Marquez, Joe Rosmaninho, and Cathy Broker – do not consider the restaurant a steakhouse, they claim to serve as a “haven” for meat lovers.

At a recent grand opening, Mayor Reginald Spinello stopped by to congratulate the new owners.

“It’s great to see new businesses opening in Glen Cove,“ he said. “ Judging by the delicious food and drink being served, this place is going be a great success.“

Spinello, along with other Glen Cove residents, encouraged the community to support the new local business.

The restaurant’s website, where diners can learn more about menu options, would be online soon, according to the restaurant’s Facebook page.
