"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 the lobster soup. Also, I couldn't find any spoon so I wasn't able to finish my lobster soup.The servers bring a lot of meat options (more than 10) and some of them were too salty. Maybe I was expecting more from the meat part, but it tasted like regular meat that is average priced not cheap, but not premium either. Also, it was a bit frustrating because they took forever 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 on waiting. They brought out pineapples too and it was the sweetest pineapple I have ever tasted. I personally enjoyed the salad bar 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 a big plate full of dessert and those are fake. If you want to eat dessert, you can tell the server what you want and they will bring out the real dessert for you. I tried the caramel pudding, and it was too sweet for me... if they had other flavors I think I would have enjoyed more. The overall experience was good but the meat part did not reach my full expectation. Give it a try if you have never visited though."

Incredible place to come and eat. Staff is very friendly and helpful. All gluten free items are clearly labeled and easy to identify. Loads of different options for main course selection. A little bit on the pricey side for a single meal, however, it's extremely reasonable for what you get.

this place is amazing. clean, modern, personalized and amazing food also for vegetarians. they can only choose the buffet and not come meat around their table. it's a great deal for quality food... everything you can eat. I wanted to eat and eat there. highly recommended. they were open for thanksgiving, which made it easy not to cook and clean. many thanks to tucanos!

I have always loved Tucanos and it has always been a tradition to come to Tucanos for our birthday dinners. This year I extended that to my 6 year old daughter. I was a little nervous bringing my little kiddos but the servers did fantastic and catered to their little requests which I really appreciated. Special kudos to Jen, Cristian, Stuart, and Blake. They did fantastic!

the quality of eating is great and the server are all very attentive and fast. there is a great choice of meat to choose, although there could take a few minutes for them to the meat they want most. would recommend the pineapple they kill. it is good for eating when they avoid the drinks and only get water. the only thing I'd think of is that it can take up to 45 to get a place. When they sit, everything is fast. View menu

we went as a party of 7 for a birthday party, they begin with a festival of salates, like an American salatable, but with a lot of options. each article is marked. server strips over the tables with different grill meats. they choose as many or as few as they want. all this is for a price. Drinks, except water and dessert are extra. If they have food restrictions, they simply ask. the server are very knowledgeable.

This is a fabulous place to dine! The food was prepared expertly and wonderfully flavorful. Everyone in the staff who we dealt with were excellent! Our server, Jane, was just incredible. She was attentive and always ready to help. To say she ran would be an understatement. The service she provided was impeccable! Not just for our group, but everyone I saw her interact with. She made the whole experience incomparable. A fabulous evening!

This isn't the most authentic Brazilian food out there, but the food sure is good. I am particularly fond of the warm salad bar where there is the cheese bread, Brazilian stroganoff, and other more authentic Brazilian sides. The lemonades and deserts are also really good too. The quality of the meat can be a little inconsistent, some nights it's cooked better than others. Sometimes I leave feeling like I got a good value for the price and sometimes I don't, so 4 stars.

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 the food on our plate that we desired. The salad bar was super well maintained and delicious...at least the parts I sampled (I am guessing on the rest). Decor was nice and inviting without being intrusive. The manager Andrew was not all talk, he personally went and got a requested dish (on a sword) for us. There may be some MSG used in their seasoning so be aware if you are sensitive to this but it WAS delicious.

kids 6 and eat here for free! we went to my wife's birthday. they have a birthday club deal they have a meal free with buying another meal at full price. the food is good and you knew. kids 6 and eat here for free! we were about 20 minutes in the restaurant when our waitress came by to show us the dessert options and asks us if we would eat dessert today. we said we had just started (we had only visited the salatbar so far and had to dip into the meat options.) we also started with a less drink and set of cutlery, then there were people. in the next 30 minutes we were brought about 5 or 6 of the meat options. it was strange because there were tons on servers that took meat on every table, bu...

"I feel torn on what to review Spicy Thai.. I had been years ago and remembered it being good. I came with some friends on a Friday evening. The restaurant was packed! We waited about 10 minutes before a table was ready no big deal. Our waiter took awhile to come and ask us what we wanted to drink. We browsed the menu and knew quickly what we all wanted to order. It took around 15 minutes for our waiter to come back after giving us our drinks and order our food. My husband and I ordered the egg rolls, pad Thai, and massman curry. The appetizer took around 20 minutes to come out, followed by the food about 20 more minutes. I know that it was a Friday night but the restaurant isn't that big. I don't know why it took so long to get our drinks and food. Our waiter brought the food and brought us the wrong curry. We had to ask for our massman curry. It was shortly brought out with no apology. The eggs rolls were tasty. They were very hot and full of filling. The chili sauce was the perfect amount of sweet and heat. The pad Thai was very good. It was a very generous portion and full of chicken which was a great surprise. The peanuts added a good texture. I was very impressed with this. The massman curry was only okay. It wasn't that flavorful and tasted like it was lacking or missing something. I did appreciate how much chicken was in it but would've liked to see more carrots and potatoes. The rice was cooked well. The food was nice and hot when it came out. It was very fresh. The reason for the three stars in the service. As mentioned above, it took awhile for all the food to come out. Our drinks were never refilled. After we got our food, our waiter never checked on us. We finished eating and had to ask a different waiter for boxes and our checks. The service needs to improve. I will be back for the food though."
