Much to the surprise of the staff, we didn't want the meats that you usually associate with Brazilian steakhouses. We were on... vacation and felt we could be eating better than we had been. We got just the salad bar and paid $3 for grilled vegetables andpineapple. The salad bar is extensive and includes some non-plant items like shrimp. All was very good with the exception of thepineapple. It wasn't sweet at all, it was a disappointment compared to others, but maybe it was an off night? Google maps got meto the shopping center, but didn't help after that. It isn't hidden, but we kept looking at the main building. It is not inthere, but closer to the road. Read more

This place is amazing. Clean, modern, staffed, and amazing food even for vegetarians. You can opt for the buffet only and no... meat coming around your table. It’s a great deal for quality food … all you can eat. I wanted to eat lunch and dinner there.Highly recommend. They were open for Thanksgiving which made it easy not to cook and clean. Thank you Tucanos! Read more

We went as a party of 7 for a birthday celebration, You start off with a festival of salads, like an American salad bar, but... with a vastly different variety of options. Every item is labeled. Servers roam throughout the tables offering different grilledmeats. You select as many or as few as you want. All of this is for one price. Beverages, except water, and dessert are extra.If you have dietary restrictions, just ask. The servers are very knowledgeable. Read more

I brought my teen here for the experience. It was pretty good, but I've had better feijoada and pao de queijo. It's on the... pricy side...and truly not THE best Brazilian food, but worth the experience. My daughter would give it a five, a 4 seems likea compromise. Read more

KIDS 6 AND UNDER EAT HERE FREE!!! We went here for my wife’s birthday. They have a birthday club deal that gets you one meal... for free with the purchase of another meal at full price. The food is good, and did you know…KIDS 6 AND UNDER EAT HEREFREE!!! We had been at the restaurant for about 20 minutes when our waitress came over to show us the dessert options and askedus if we would be eating dessert today. We said that we were kind of just getting started (we had only visited the salad bar sofar and had yet to start diving into the meat options). We also started with one less beverage and set of silverware then therewere people. Over the next 30 minutes we were brought about 5 or 6 of the meat options. It was strange because there were tonsoff at servers taking meat to every table but it seemed we were getting overlooked. When our waitress came over to ask us yetagain if we would like to try dessert I told her, “not yet, but we would like to try more of the meat.” She replied,“I’m sorry has it been slow? I’ll tell them to come around more frequently.” After that the service picked up, so thatwas nice. The feel that we got is that they are understaffed so we weren’t super bothered by our experience. Our experience isusually closer to a 4-star experience when we come here, but being as it went the way it did, 3-star it is. Read more

I wanted to visit here for a long time because I heard good stuff about this place. The atmosphere is good and the salad bar is... clean and has organic looking vegetables. Their fried bananas and pastas and cheese puffs are good as well - not so much for thelobster soup. Also, I couldn't find any spoon so I wasn't able to finish my lobster soup. The servers bring a lot of meatoptions (more than 10) and some of them were too salty. Maybe I was expecting more from the meat part, but it tasted likeregular meat that is average priced - not cheap, but not premium either. Also, it was a bit frustrating because they tookforever to bring the meat that I wanted to get more of. It took so long that I decided to eat more crab rolls instead of keep onwaiting. They brought out pineapples too and it was the sweetest pineapple I have ever tasted. I personally enjoyed the saladbar more than the meat, but I don't think I would pay more than thirty dollars for the salad bar. In the end, they bring out abig plate full of dessert and those are fake. If you want to eat dessert, you can tell the server what you want and they willbring out the real dessert for you. I tried the caramel pudding, and it was too sweet for me... if they had other flavors Ithink I would have enjoyed more. The overall experience was good but the meat part did not reach my full expectation. Give it atry if you have never visited though. Read more

Surprised at how busy this locale was so early in the evening. It was a packed house at 5:30. The food and service was... excellent, especially from our two primary meat servers Gatsby and Michael. They went out of their way to make sure we had thefood on our plate that we desired. The salad bar was super well maintained and delicious...at least the parts I sampled (I amguessing on the rest). Decor was nice and inviting without being intrusive. The manager Andrew was not all talk, he personallywent and got a requested dish (on a sword) for us. There may be some MSG used in their seasoning so be aware if you aresensitive to this but it WAS delicious. Read more
