Tucanos is an experiential dining, family-friendly destination that combines the unique serving style of the traditional Brazilian grilling, referred to as "churrasco" (shoe-HAS-ko) - an exhibition-style meal surrounded by flames and colors, with the flair and festivity of the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. The cuisine features specially seasoned or marinated meats and vegetables (nearly 20 varieties), grilled and then served hot off the skewers at each table until the guest's appetite is fully gratified. Guests will find one-of-a-kind touches at the restaurant abound, including the color-coded, Tucanos Cue. Placing the Tucanos cue green side up lets the entree servers know that guests would like the parade of seasoned meats, vegetables and fresh pineapple brought to the table. Expertly trained meat servers then slice sizzling portions off skewers directly onto diners' plates. Tucanos also offers an abundant and award-winning Salad Festival, featuring more than 70 items.Tucanos is an experiential dining, family-friendly destination that combines the unique serving style of the traditional Brazilian grilling, referred to as "churrasco" (shoe-HAS-ko) - an exhibition-style meal surrounded by flames and colors, with the flair and festivity of the beaches of Rio de Janeiro.

We had three couples from our family head to Tucanos to have their Mother's Day dinner. Our server, Trey, was fast and efficient, and most of all, fun! This was, by far, our best experience at Tucanos and they have the best in meat, seafood and their never ending Salad Fiesta.

Love the salad bar, drinks and the kids eat free! Waiters are so fun. Our sons loved the lemonade, grilled veggies, fried bananas, chicken and desserts. I loved the variety and my husband loved all the grilled meat dishes served tableside. So much fun, but go hungry!

Such a great place to visit! We go every April to celebrate birthdays. The term "salad bar" does not do it justice. There's salad, bread, potatoes, sushi, meats and cheeses---delicious! The wait staff is personable and just delightful. They hire people who are engaging and who really seem to enjoy their jobs. The drinks were great as we're the desserts. I was sad they were out of creme brûlée, but the flan was really nice. We'll be back! Oh, and make a reservation before you go!

The food was by and large excellent. Service polite and efficient. Food served on a sword... I mean come on... That's just cool. Great place to visit to relax and eat good meat. $22 per person, but it's all you can eat meat with "excellent" salad/buffet bar.

All around great food and good service. You will not be hungry for a long time after eating here. Be sure to make reservations ahead of time. Also sign up for your birthday to get a free meal on your birthday.
