We have ate here multiple times and it is the same ole. The meat which keeps coming is pretty much the same as other times and the salad bar is ditto. This restaurant has a good theme but needs new blood brought in. Thanks for reading. The Bike Chaplain

Pros: Lots of variety of meats and good buffet. Fresh and flavorful and a meat lover's paradise. Cons: Pricey, most meats are well done (I preder rare) and the outside seating is in dire need of either umbrellas or a large shade. Last time I ate outside and the seats were hot and the utensils became too hot to handle.

While the accoustics of the room are not great and it can get very hard to hear your company or have a conversation, it doesnt matter because the food is absolutely amazing! Dont fill up at the salad bar on pastas and such things. The skewers of meat that are brought to your table is the best part!!!!!

This was a great experience for a chain restaurant. We came here at the recommendation of the hotel clerk and were not disappointed. The salad bar was fresh with many premium ingredients and salads. The meat was plentiful and served promptly and the service was fantastic! Try everything! Even the chicken hearts were delicious and tender. Also, the French Mojitos... More

My visit to Tocano's lead me and my dining companion to agree that Brazilian steak houses aren't our thing. There was nothing special about anything we ate and as we noted at other restaurants of this type the meat quality is sub par, never really consistently cooked to desired doneness and overall a let down. We were additionally annoyed that... More

The service is outstanding. Excellent meats, flavored & cooked perfect continued to be delivered to our table. We requested rare beef, it came quickly & was very tasty. The salad bar has a lot of extras, there is something for everyone. The foods on the buffet were good, but not great with the exception of the fresh lettuce salad selection...very... More

Meat... and more meat... until you beg them to stop... need I say more? The salad bar is top of the market, and the waitstaff is wonderful.

Have eaten here many times. A wide variety of meats cooked on skewers and brought to your table. A large buffet bar is the rest of your meal. Sign up and they will send you a card for a free meal on your birthday. Decent prices!

Celebrated my husband's successful dissertation defense last week at Tucano's. Always try a limeade; I had the pineapple this time and it was wonderful. Even though it was a warm spring day I was unable to resist the clam chowder on the soup bar and it was lovely. I've never had a bad experience at Tucano's, but I prefer the... More
