The wagyu is literally melt in ur mouth, the service there was absolutely amazing they explained everything to us in a detailed manner and I loved it read more

Best steak I've had in a long while. Love the noise of the restaurant. Servers are great as well

Four of us were there celebrating a 47th wedding anniversary. Denzel was our server and, put it this way, I won't go back unless he is working. Three of us ordered the Vacio steaks and one ordered the ribeye tacos. In addition to our main selections, we also ordered the cauliflower and two orders of the peppers/corn/cream. I don't remember its name. Every single thing was to die for. The drinks were just OK. The bartender was a little standoffish and unfriendly. Denzel made up for whatever mood the bartender was in. I will be going back often. Denzel finished our lovely dinner off with an aperitif herbal tea service. I just cannot stress how wonderful the food and service were. Seating was not very comfortable/too cramped, and the benches looked like recycled café booths, but the overhead lighting and the tree installations made the ambience. We were seated and dined for two hours, and there was no stress and no rush and no feelings like we had to relinquish our table. I will be bringing all sorts of friends in the very near future. read more

Mixed feelings about this place for sure! Our first time, it was spectacular; worth the price and super tasty. Our server was great as well and helped us choose the steaks we were looking for. However, our second time around, our experience wasn't as great. It was still good, but our steak cuts felt 'cheaper' in a way. We ordered the same steaks, but the cut was not as fatty nor as tender as previous. We would probably still consider this location for a special occasion, but would definitely have to think on it. read more

We had a wonderful meal and would absolutely recommend the food. The steak flight was excellent, and the giant baked potato was perfect for sharing -both were memorable and very well prepared. My only constructive feedback is about the pace of service. The staff were friendly and attentive, but we felt overly rushed throughout the meal. Over the course of about six minutes, four different people asked whether they could clear our plates or remove the board used to present the steak flight, even though there were still vegetables on it and we were clearly still enjoying our meal. We certainly appreciate attentive service, but for a lovely and relatively expensive dining experience like this, guests should also feel comfortable slowing down and savoring the meal if they choose. We ended up being in and out in about 45 minutes, largely because the repeated attempts to clear the table made us feel as though we needed to hurry. The food was excellent, and the staff were genuinely friendly. With just a little more attention to the guest's preferred pace, the overall experience would have matched the quality of the meal. read more

If you haven't eaten here, it's a must. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was great. Prices are a little high, but I'd say it was worth it because it's a pretty fancy place I say. I didn't try the alcoholic drinks, but the people I was with were impressed with theirs. The restrooms were clean too. Great experience and I'll definitely come back. read more

This food is good but not as good enough for the price point. I would definitely come back for the baked potato and a drink, but that's it. To be fair, I've had high grade wagyu in Japan, LA, and Vegas so maybe I'm just being snooty. Although a side, the potato was huge and delicious enough for a meal! The steak that was in the potato was much better than the wagyu. We also got a queso with chorizo app and that was good but also not worth the price. The drinks were quite fancy and some even came with a torch fire "Oooh, ahhh" effect. Service was of course amazing. there is seating in the front that is very bright and open with a tree design to give a "wow" factor upon walking in. towards the back is a section with very low light "date night" feel. read more

It was a great choice to visit for my husband's birthday.Our 3 steak filet mignon sampler was Amazing! All were tender and delicious. The Wagu 5 was especially fork tender, so delicious! We also enjoyed our sides of roasted mushrooms and carrots. Kudos to our waiter (Ronie V)! He was friendly and explained the menu choices in a professional and knowledgeable manner. We will return to Cuerno Bravo for our Anniversary in August! read more

We were looking for a nice steakhouse to go to for our anniversary and a coworker told me about his visit here about a year ago and spoke highly of it so we decided to give it a try. How this place receives anything less than a 5 star review is beyond me. People claiming it's not good for the price and it's literally the best meal I have ever had in my life. We got lucky and were able to make last minute reservations, I noted anniversary in the requests and I think that got us seated very quickly in the darker, more intimate and slightly more quiet area of the restaurant. Our server was Jace who was super knowledgeable about the menu and informative on the sauces, how he recommends to sear and use them etc. 10/10 service really. They serve room temp water with no ice which I don't love but a very nice touch is they bring by a board of fresh citrus, mint, and cucumber if you'd like to spritz up your water. I really liked that. I also ordered a no pain (NA) and to my surprise and he lit it on fire and it made a tall beautiful flame with bright "sparks" to me it was amazing. I wish I knew he was going to do that so I could have recorded. Next time for sure. My boyfriend and I both ordered the ultimate filet. It was the most fine piece of meat I have ever had and on this menu it was mid range in price. It was worth every penny my boyfriend paid for it. I had no idea steak could taste so amazing. I've also never had a filet. It comes out beautifully charred, cooked to perfection and on a hot stone that will continue to cook or reheat your slices if you are savoring the taste and experience like I was. Sides are extra, we shared the papa loco 10/10, seasonal veggies 7/10 bc I like my carrots more soft roasted but I would easily order these again and the grandmas rice - boring and don't recommend unless you're getting a side dish that pairs well with it but we thought it was going to be more like risotto or creamy but it just seemed like normal rice. They do bring out bottomless gravy dishes of 2 salsas, pickled onions - my fave and pico de gaillo also very good. I enjoyed the red salsa too. The green avocado salsa I don't think I would use again but my BF liked it. From the presentation, to the service to the food (winner!) everything was more than I could have expected. Sadly I did not have room for dessert but I hope next time I will. A great cap for the night is they bring you a cute little (and effective) pallet cleansing mint tea before you go. I can't say more about this place. I have thought about it every day since we celebrated our anniversary there but I am pretty sure steaks anywhere else are ruined for me now. Oh parking sucks. read more

Wow. This place is excellent. Read good reviews and am usually skeptical. This place does not disappoint. Most of the steaks come on a sizzling plate with sides of oil to put on the hot plate. You slice your steak and rub it on the hot plate. Drinks were delicious, sides were great also. For starters, we had the bone marrow. Delicious. We had the mushrooms, rice, poblanos for sides. For entree, we had Australian Wagyu New York and Ribeye. All great! The cheesecake for dessert was awesome also! Noise level is a little loud for people looking for a romantic experience. The server was amazing, Denzel, thanks! Parking on the other hand, hard to find. If you don't mind walking, park at the lot down the street. It's only $2 for 3 hours. Overall, if you want a good steakhouse experience, come here! read more

In totality a wonderful experience from setting first foot through door until I had both feet on the sidewalk on my departure.. Servers: well informed, helpful, professiona, polite and all around fantastic. Atmosphere: Cool vibes... a little loud but the place was packed.. Ill take it. Food: Outstanding, had the roasted Bone Marrow, 38oz Porterhouse and the leftover from 2 waygu ribeyes.. Yup, Ive a very healthy meat appetite. The meat all the way about was superb. The porterhouse was expertly cooked, served on a hot slab/plate of stone which kept it just right. Meat was high quality and seasoned wonderfully. The ribey was amazing and rich as one would expect by the type. Australian Waygu .. seems it was S7 or the likes... all in i had 1/2 of two separate steaks and that was a wonderful way to cap off the Porterhouse. Outstanding in every way!!! read more

The service was good. The location isn't great and there is no parking provided. The ambience is okay, despite the two "trees" placed in the middle of the restaurant. The food is delicious. However, the dessert list is lacking. They only offered two desserts. I can see why so many people say not to be seated in the back of the house by the bathrooms...it isn't pleasant. Definitely sit in the front section, if you can. Our server didn't provide us with any tea at the end of our meal so I was disappointed. My husband says he would definitely go back. I feel I would rather dine at El Goucho or Smoke & Cedar since they provide parking and the ambiance is better. Cuerno Bravo was okay. Not great, not poor. Food good. Parking bad. Ambience ... just okay. The price: reasonable. read more

Went here to celebrate my son's birthday. Luckily we had a reservation -- which you definitely need on a weekend night, as it was super busy and the hostess told a couple in front of us that they only had bar seating available for the night (we went at 6 pm). Our waiter was fantastic! Super friendly, made great recommendations and explained the menu, and was very attentive. (I wish I could remember his name to give him a shout-out.) The restaurant is clean and the two lantern trees are very pretty. We were seated right by the expediting area (so close you could turn around and touch the people expediting behind you) and I feel like that definitely took away from our experience. We were also brought several orders for other tables which I thought was odd. You get a choice of fresh fruit or mint for your water which I found to be a nice touch. Small beer selection, but does have a full bar. Some of the cocktails others around us were getting had nice presentations to them. Appetizers: Guacamole Casero and Toritos -- both were good, but nothing exceptional. Main courses: Steak Flight: 5/5 -- some of the best steak we've ever had that was cooked to perfect and high quality. Loved how it comes out on a hot stone. Salmon: 4/5 -- it was really good (cooked well and good flavor), but had TONS of bones (finding two or three bones makes sense to me, but there was 12 lager sized bones and that was only because individual stopped eating the salmon due to continuing to find bones on each bite). Arrachera: 4/5 -- good but kind of what you'd expect from a skirt steak Papa Loco: 4/5 -- it was good, but also just a baked potato Just a personal opinion, but when we've dined at higher-end restaurants for a birthday before they have all done a little something to acknowledge the occasion, but this place did nothing which I found a little disappointing. read more

We were not disappointed! Made reservations about a month in advance. Parking is street or paid parking nearby. No large signage for the restaurant, only on the door. We were sat in the back, which was a more quiet and intimate area, but also much darker. We were seated promptly. Our server was awesome and explained the menu to us. There's a bottle of water that's left at your table and somebody walked around with a platter of things to add to it. There were slices of lemon, lime, orange, cucumber, and mint. Nice touch! During our meal, we had a couple drinks, which all were delicious. We ordered the chorizo queso that came with tortillas and tostadas. We also got the cream cheese stuffed jalapeño peppers topped with bacon crumbles. Not gross, but not exceptional, just what you would expect it to taste like. My husband ordered the fillet wagyu flight and I got the 12 ounce skirt steak. The refried beans that came with my meal were slightly spicy so that was a nice surprise. We also got a side of the fire roasted peppers and they complimented the steak nicely. Biscoff cheesecake for dessert was a win. Another nice touch was at the end of your meal, they brought you a small cup of herbal mint tea to help with digestion. Overall we were very happy with our meal and service. We will be back. Is it worth the drive...yes! read more

This is a dining experience. Where from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave it's a treat for the senses. Ambiance is lively yet feels intimate. Service is attentive not overbearing. The food. THAT is the Star of the show. The quality of ingredients and the inspired way flavors come together is truly a joy. The steaks are beyond delicious and priced from $40 to over $125. Depending on what you prefer. The sides complement the steaks beautifully and if you can save room, desserts are not to be missed. We stupidly went there during our "dry February". The cocktails looked amazing. So we are definitely returning soon. It is expensive so more of a special occasion or let's splurge kinda place. But if you are going to spend the money it should be worth the money. And wowza is it ever. read more

I've been a few times and had sides and drinks. I went once and had meat. It's always good, the staff are friendly and accommodating. The price is fair for what you get. The one thing that seems jokey is the fire works show with some of the drinks. I get it, but... The last time I went was without a reservation but they let me in if I agreed to be gone by the time they needed the table. That was fair. Try it. Drinks and sides are amazing! read more

We were visiting friends in Gig Harbor and they told us this place was worth the drive. We ordered the Australian Wagyu and the Delmonico as well as a side of broccolini, mushrooms, and a papa loca to share. The Australian Wagyu had a buttery, soft texture that was delicious with the salt to taste. However, my favorite was actually the Delmonico-great cut of meat for a good price, we thought it was the best value! Both meats were already well seasoned, so it didn't really seem like they needed any of the extra sauces, but they were a nice touch! The papa Loca was huge and easy to share among the five of us-it could easily be an entrée on its own as well. Definitely recommend meeting reservations ahead of time. We had a 415 reservation, and when we lined up outside before they opened, there was already a large crowd gathering-so this place is definitely popular. Elevated steakhouse that's great to celebrate for a date night or special occasion! read more

Reservations are absolutely needed -- we had an 8:30 slot and the place was packed. We started with cocktails: mezcal Old Fashioneds (subbed for whiskey) and a classic margarita. The mezcal Old Fashioned was aggressively smoky in the best way, not watered down, and the margarita was clean and balanced. Strong drinks, fair pricing. For starters, we ordered the bone marrow and the toritos. Both hit exactly how you want an appetizer to hit -- rich, flavorful, and satisfying without killing your appetite. Perfect pacing. The staff actually listened to our preferences and steered us toward the right steak options. Everything comes out on a ripping-hot griddle, which lets you keep searing slices as you eat. This isn't a gimmick -- it genuinely works. You can get a fresh crust on each cut if you want. We went with the 16oz ribeye. Easily the best steak I've had. Perfectly seasoned, no overthinking, just full beef flavor. It came with a smoky tomato salsa that added acidity to cut through the fat, plus a chimichurri with really good olive oil. Simple, smart accompaniments that actually enhance the steak instead of distracting from it. Sides were a mixed bag. The mushrooms were fine but not something I'd reorder. The baked potato with steak was excellent and ideal for sharing. The corn with onions and poblanos was the standout -- creamy, a little spicy, and genuinely memorable. The vibe is great -- lively, warm, feels like a place meant for a night out. Yes, it's expensive, but it felt worth it. Nothing felt phoned in. Best steak of my life. This is a special-occasion spot for me now, and I'll absolutely be back. read more

This is an expensive restaurant, and I expect first-class service. I've dined here several times, and the food and drinks have always been outstanding. Unfortunately, tonight's service was completely unacceptable. We were served by the worst waiter I've ever experienced. He never came back to offer us another drink, never asked if we wanted dessert, and barely acknowledged our table the entire evening. Most of the time, he had his back to us and made no effort to check on us. Even the usual touch of offering fruit with the water--which has always been part of the experience here--was completely ignored. It genuinely felt like he had no interest in serving us at all. For a restaurant that charges premium prices, this level of service is unacceptable and disappointing. Management should pay much closer attention to the quality of their staff because excellent service should never be optional. Sadly, this experience did not come close to the standards this restaurant claims to offer. read more

Must visit! Exceptional experience throughout with great attention to detail and friendly, patient and knowledgeable staff (Issac?) We were seated in the back lounge that held about 10 2 tops. My only complaint was the incredibly dim lighting that is only in that back area. I saw several people using flashlights or table candle to read the menu. As seated we were offered a board of citrus slices to accompany our water. Alcohol drink were presented with flair and smoke/fire. Everything was well timed and explained. Bone Marrow appetizer was flavorful and delicious. Steaks were well presented and explained and had accompanying sauces and salt that made an already top notch steak even better. Rice pudding was good enough to get a couple extra to go. A must visit for special occasions or just cause you made it through the week. read more

We had an amazing dinner at Cuerno Bravo Steakhouse in Tacoma. From the start, the cocktails were incredibly creative and delicious; clearly crafted with care and imagination. The steak selection was outstanding, cooked perfectly and full of flavor, and the non-steak entrées were just as impressive. The Papa Loco potato was a standout, and the fish tacos were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The location and ambiance really elevate the experience. The bar area is inviting, and the trees with the lanterns on the property create a warm, upscale atmosphere that feels very relaxing. Service was awesome from start to finish--attentive, friendly, and professional. Emily truly helped make the evening special, she's amazing! Highly recommend Cuerno Bravo for a memorable dining experience in Tacoma. We will definitely be back, SOON! read more

Where do I even start? This place is a food experience. Service is unexpectedly fast for a steakhouse. Our food actually beat our drinks to the table. The Australian Wagyu is brought out less cooked than you request, for example a Medium order was brought out Medium Rare. Isaac explained that you should cut the steak in pieces then use the hot stone to cook it how you like. Legitimately one of the best steaks I have ever had, which includes places all over the country. For sides, we got the Rajitas Poblanas which were a bit spicier than you would expect with poblano peppers. Recommend topping with the avocado crema on top to mellow it out. Delicious. The Papa Loca is a massive potato stuffed with all the goodies including smoked bacon and carne asada. Definitely a "take it home and eat it for lunch" item. We were sat in the back room which is better for dates as it is quieter than the front room. Yes, it is a bit darker but nothing crazy. Can't wait to go back. Shout out to my wife who chose this place for my birthday dinner. read more

Cuerno Bravo Prime Steakhouse - Australian Wagyu ribeye and assorted sauces. - Steakhouses Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

If you're a steak lover, Cuerno Bravo is absolutely worth the visit. First, the soup is a 10/10. It's spicy, but in a really balanced way, anyone who enjoys heat will find it flavorful rather than overwhelming. It's packed with beans, steak, bacon, and onions, and honestly? I would order this over a steak without hesitation. It's that good. The steaks are served on a hot plate, so order one temperature below what you normally prefer. If you like medium, go medium rare. Everything continues cooking at the table. The baked potato was good, but be aware it's heavier on potato than toppings. Still solid, just not a star meal. Everything is exactly as described on the menu so a la carte. They offer seasonal vegetables and sides you can choose to pair with your steak. Broccolini and mushrooms *chef's kiss* This is definitely a pricey spot, plan on at least $100 per person for a steak, a side, and a drink. That said, the quality matches the price. The restaurant is small, so I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time. Overall, a great experience with standout flavors, especially that soup. Would travel from Miami back to Tacoma for it lol. read more

Found parking in the lot next door, and walked in with a party of 5 around 6:30 and was able to get a corner spot at the bar, which was under the super cute, lit indoor "trees". I got the vodka/beet cocktail, which was unique, another colleague got the old fashioned, which came out smoking, which was cool and another colleague got the spicy margarita, which was indeed spicy due to the habaneros and muddled jalapeños. Bartender was great, went over the specials, and we started with the queso fundido, which was cheesy and had a solid amount of chorizo. It was and all meals are accompanied by a pretty tasty salsa flight. I particularly liked the red salsa and pickled onions. For dinner I had the tacos del patron, which were sizable and good. Overall, good food, great ambiance and great service. read more

I went here for my birthday dinner. Due to it being so expensive, it's definitely a special occasion type of restaurant. I got the Delmonico. It came on a sizzling platter which I like. The papa loca was nothing special od a baked potato with the only ex option of it being topped with steak. The carne en su jugo was very delicious. The meat in it was perfect but the beans seemed like they weren't thoroughly cook. The ambiance is set like a speak easy. The esthetic needs work in the back room. It is just dimly lit and not comparable to the front entrance decor. Overall, my opinion is I've been there once and that's good enough for me since I wasnt really impressed by anything spectacular. read more

Always good to make a reservation. Staff are very friendly and attentive. The restaurant is not huge but cozy. Food was excellent.

LUXURY STEAK UPDATE ... IS (still) AMAZING. One of the best steaks I've had at a Steak house. Been a couple years but back again for another luxury steak meal. On average the bill for 2 is around $350-$450. That's okay if you are out of town and willing to splurge. ULTRA LUXURY AUSTRALIAN WAGYU (MS9+) is still absolutely delicious. My mouth continuously waters every time I think about a bite. Its has the perfect sear, tenderness, taste, and saltiness. The only thing I don't like about this place is 1) The back area is SO dim. Server tried to make it better by saying the eyes will adjust. Even after they adjust, it's a bit too dim for my liking. 2) Don't come here wearing nice clothes, the sizzling from the hot plate will make grease splatter everywhere around it. 3) Service is always great but I sometimes feel some servers are a bit TOO annoyingly in your face fake nice - I like great service but the right amount of it. Tone the customer service dial a little down. Until the next delicious bite.... read more

Oh my! Let me start by saying I am not a steak person. I am in town for a conference and this place was recommended. We had settled on trying it and just getting the steak tacos. We walked in at sat at the bar as we didn't have reservations. No problem at 7pm on a Friday night. They had a special Steak flight of three 4 oz servings of their most popular steaks. It is the wagyu 5, an Australian cut and an angus. It is served on a sizzling stone. I ordered them medium. They bring them out more towards the rare side as they continue to cook. They were cooked to perfection by the time I cut into them. The seasoning is perfect. They are served with a Chimchurri, mole, and a salsa sauce for dipping. Use them all. They are great. We also ordered the baked potato and two steak tacos. It was all amazing but I am writing home about the steak flight. The bartenders were amazing. Ours made us mocktails based on our likes and preferences. They were cheaper than the three mocktails they offer on the menu. Service was fast, kind and on point. The ambiance was calm and inviting. Looking forward to trying out their Ballard location. read more

I recommend this place , it has the best meats and they also have nice decorations y bebidas deliciosas

Really have no complaints about this place. It is highly recommended that you put in a reservation FYI, but we felt adventurous and did walk-in to get lucky as there were two seats at the bar left. All the bartenders were lovely, and they all took care of each other and the guests: when my bartender was busy, another would check in on us, and our bartender did the same for the others. The interior was very pretty and had two artificial treats with pretty lighting to give a date night aesthetic no matter what time of day you dine in. I got a class of Napa Valley Red Blend to pair with the steak and my boyfriend got the watermelon margarita with had a really yummy rim and tahin watermelon topper. The steak? Amazing. We tried two different American Cross Waygus: the La Carne Asada came with chorizo sausages, corn tortillas, and beans to make tacos. Beef was good, a little hard to chew but flavorful. The El Zabuton was easily our favorite. My boyfriend said it was the best steak he ever had. Very tender, flavorful, and came with a hot skillet to cook the meat to your liking after slicing it into thin parts and adding to the skillet just a few seconds on each side. read more

Top 3 meals all time. We have eaten here 3 times and tried several of the steaks/appetizers. My favorite is the filet mignon flight, but if you like ribeye Cuerno Bravo has the best I have ever tasted. For appetizers the queso is perfect and the Toritos were great (spicy!).

I went to Cuerno Bravo on a Saturday night. The place was packed, but the hostess quickly greeted me and checked me in. Even though I had a reservation, I opted to sit at the bar as there was less of a wait. The bartender was extremely friendly and provided me with an overview of the menu and specials. I ordered the crazy baked potato and the New York strip steak with the hot stone. The baked potato was one of the best things I've ever tasted. The steak was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. I appreciated that I had the hot stone and could sear cuts of my meat as I ate. The sauces served with the steak were also very tasty. The restaurant is cute and is definitely a great spot for date night or a special occasion. Absolutely no complaints. I will definitely be back. read more

Made an early reservation and split the steak flight with my husband. It was delicious and the Papa Loco helped fill our tummies since the meat was a tasting serving when shared vs a hearty meal.

Both are a great treat, whichever is closest to you. read more

We came here this past Saturday to celebrate our 3-year anniversary at Cuerno Bravo Prime Steakhouse, and overall it was a great experience. First impression: walking in, it was very loud and busy. It was a Saturday night during a three-day weekend, so I completely understood the crowd, but it definitely felt a bit chaotic at first. That said, this quickly turned around. Even though I had an 8:30 PM reservation, we arrived around 8:00 and were seated immediately by the hostess. She took us to a table toward the back of the restaurant, away from the main bar area in the front, which helped a lot. Ambience-wise, it was okay. I was expecting a bit more for a prime steakhouse, but it wasn't bad--just not as elevated as I imagined. Not a dealbreaker by any means. Now the food... absolutely amazing. Our server was very attentive and gave solid recommendations. My girlfriend and I shared the Australian Wagyu (16 oz), which was more than enough for two people. The steak was cooked perfectly and had incredible flavor. We ordered it medium rare, but I'd recommend ordering medium if you want medium rare--the steak comes out on a hot plate and continues cooking while it's on the table. For sides, we had the cauliflower and mushrooms, plus guacamole as an appetizer. Everything was excellent and paired really well with the steak. Overall, I would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great steak in the South Sound/Tacoma area. It honestly saves you a trip to downtown Seattle or the Eastside. This is easily top three steakhouses I've been to. The quality of the meat alone makes it worth it. Would definitely come back read more

I'd like to start with the parking. What the heck, it was crazy trying to find a safe place. Walking in the ascetic was amazing. You can smell the SEASONED steak on hot plates. I've had steaks from a few different places here and that was a huge issue, but it wasn't here. There was a great assortment of drinks and appetizers all looking, smelling, and tasting delightful. I came on a Friday night so it wasn't busy and pretty tight with the seating arrangements. The lights were nice and dim a great date night selection. read more

Okay, for Asadero fans, Cuerno Bravo Prime Steakhouse is the sister restaurant and it's just as fantastic as Asadero! I had no idea Cuerno existed until my colleague who lives in the area told me about it, so of course while in Tacoma, we had to go here for dinner! Cuerno Bravo Prime Steakhouse is located in downtown Tacoma. Street parking is around and free, but there is a small, paid parking lot on the side of the building. The restaurant itself is in one of the older, brick buildings downtown, which has some historic charm to it! We visited for dinner on a Tuesday night, and made reservations for three, which I recommend doing as every table was occupied when we visited. And that was just a Tuesday. But honestly, this is one of the best places to eat in Tacoma, if not the absolute best restaurant in town! Like Asadero, Cuerno specializes in prime steaks with a Hispanic twist. For the table, we ordered the queso fundido, papa loco and the stuffed jalapenos. For my entrée, I ordered the ribeye, which is my favorite kind of cut, and it was absolutely fantastic! The beef was perfectly cooked to medium rare and melted in my mouth. GAHHHH! Everyone loved their steak and all the sides we had were big enough for sharing. Service was fantastic and the food was perfect. As expected, Cuerno Bravo Prime Steakhouse was a memorable and delicious meal. It's a pretty penny, but it's definitely worth it to treat yourself here! read more
