Reviews for Tucanos Brazilian Grill in Albuquerque, NM
I made reservations for 10 people for my girlfriends birthday since her family is in town and they still had us wait for a... table. Then we were seated by a restroom. Then they took 25 minutes before we got one piece of meat. The tongs to get the saladbar were small and some were lying in the food as if nobody was sanitizing and checking them. The service wasn?t thefriendliest. My girlfriend spilled her pineapple drink because the pineapple was wobbly and the server didn?t believe us. Themanager came and saw the wet napkins and kindly brought a new drink. I don?t think I?ll come back. I brought my mom here for herbday, I had my bday dinner here and it has just progressively gotten worse. Read more
For the price it not worth it any more. My family use to love going here but after tonight dont think we will return. Meat... service droping the sharpener for knife then just picked it up and sharpened it from the floor. Also meat service puting therefingers all over there knifes then went and cuting meat for everybody. To top it off we told one of the managers he got likemad with us. They service us the core of the pineapple and raw meat. Just very bad experience ???? ????. Read more
The restaurant was a little loud. The wait staff was attentive and helpful. Food was tasty There is no reason to go home hungry.... The location is in a not so friendly area of town so plan your trip to leave by dark. Seating for 2 up to large groups. Read more
Food was great. Delicious meats!! Reason I gave a four star was because service was a little slow during lunch time. That had... two servers working who were working their butts off. However, you could go 5-10 mins without a server coming by with anotheroffering of meat! Read more
The shrimp was excellent but overall presentation was poor. I understand that the shrimp takes time but the lemons still had PLU... stickers on them after they were prepped? let alone when they were served. This is a rookie mistake I?d expect from a student onhis first day and any chef I?ve worked with would have lost their mind if a plate like this went out. The mint in the mojitowas somewhat bruised but overall, not bad? just not the freshest. Just watch out they don?t charge you for more than you buy onthe receipt because they tried charging me $20 extra for a buffet at the end when I only had 2 plates of shrimp. They correctedit but I?m sure this may be happening to other people so please check your receipts. Read more
To be honest with you, I was skeptical about coming here and that?s because I?m not big on eating meat and I heard that it is... non stop as long as your marker is flipped up on the green side (green for go). This is a clever way to efficiently serve guestsand alert staff ?????? I thought most of the meat was good and I skipped out on pork but if you like it then I?m sure you?lllove it here! One of the kitchen attendants was being the glove officer so make sure you wear them at the buffet line. I triedseveral warm and cold dishes such as salad, fruit, stews, fried banana, and more ! It was mostly yummy and I recommend this toanyone who is trying Brazilian food for the first time! Per my husband, he wants to come back! I?m giving 5 stars because of thevariety of meats and seafood including salmon also the bottoms lemonade that?s only $5???? also, you change the flavors! Lastly,the staff was incredibly sweet and even wished my daughter happy birthday because she had on a tiara ?????????????????????????? Read more
Sunday Brunch staff was very attentive to dietary needs and incredibly hilarious when talking about my current restrictions... because of digestion issues. Yep, I totally agree with the server who said my life sucks right now because I can't have beef,only poultry, and fish. I loved his honest response and reaction. You were not wrong Sir. Lol- The four stars are only becauseof my sticker shock. I didn't realize Sunday was a bit more spendy, but it did seem that the staff was more attentive than aprevious visit on a weekday. Read more
Celebrated our anniversary yesterday, the food and service was beyond spectacular. Our server, Elica was awesome. She made sure... everything was perfect for our special day. I would like to think the GM for stopping by our table a couple of times, makingsure everything was to our liking. Everyone was very attentive, not only to us but the entire restaurant. If you're looking forgreat food and attentive service I suggest you have lunch or dinner here. Thank you once again Tucanos. Read more
