Natick business buzz: Alma Gaucha Brazilian steakhouse eyes Mall; Wonder could expand next door

August 17, 2026 by Bob Brown

The latest Natick, Mass., and nearby business news:

Alma Gaucha Brazilian steakhouse eyes Natick Mall

almaA Brazilian steakhouse called Alma Gaucha has begun the application process in Natick for an alcohol license to serve booze at a new restaurant at Natick Mall.

Presumably, the restaurant would be located in the nearly 7,000 sq. ft. first floor space near Nordstrom that previously was targeted by a Gatsby’s Chop House, a business that never opened after getting approved for an all-alcohol license from the town. The space includes an outdoor patio.

Alma Gaucha operates restaurants in Boston and Worcester.
