Credit: Instagram \/ itelobraziliansteakhousecp<\/p>\n<p>San Antonio carnivores soon will have another Brazilian-style temple of meat at which to worship. <\/p>\n<p>Bitelo Brazilian Steakhouse, which currently operates a single restaurant in Austin\u2019s Cedar Park suburb, will spend $1.5 million developing a new eatery in far Northwest San Antonio\u2019s Portico at Shaenfield Ranch development, state records show.<\/p>\n<p>Construction on the 8,400-square-foot steakhouse will begin in December with a scheduled completion date next April, according to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. <\/p>\n<p>Officials with Bitelo were unavailable for immediate comment at press time about the new restaurant, located at 7807 W Loop 1604 North. <\/p>\n<p>Assuming the new Bitelo\u2019s menu and operations mirror the original location, the restaurant will offer Brazilian-style all-you-can-eat churrascaria dining, in which staffers carve prime cuts of meat tableside. The Cedar Park restaurant also features an extensive salad bar. <\/p>\n<p>Dinner at the original Bitelo location runs $59.95 for dinner and $40.95 for lunch. Less expensive salad bar-only lunches and dinners are also available. <\/p>\n<p>Bitelo enters the San Antonio market amid an expansion of other Brazilian steakhouse chains.<\/p>\n<p>Dallas-based Fogo
