Let's get real here: there are very few Brazilian BBQ places that are actually pretty great. So here we go with one that actually checks out clean. A little about me because this is important to the review (everyone is biased through their background, right?): I'm a southern Californian who is a self-proclaimed foodie. I refuse to eat bad food. I'd rather starve. The great thing about this place: 1. Wow, can we say posh? This is in a very nice area with great shops around. Great if you have to wait a long time to get into this place, or you want to walk off the 10 lbs you just gained eating copious quantity of meat. 2. THAT SALAD BAR. Wow. Just wow. And I don't necessarily LOVE salad. From the Brazilian cheese bread to the marinated cucumber slices, I thought, this is a BOMB salad bar. Heck, I'd pay $15 a person just to all you can eat THIS. 3. Cute waiters. Not going to lie, there were some good eye candy here on the night we were here. Yes, my husband was with me. Cute, young boys who were polite and light on their feet, clean cut and used proper grammar. I found that delightful. My recommendations: A. Call for a reservation if you can. We came on a Monday evening at 5 PM and was SHOCKED when they asked us if we had a reservation. We asked, SHOULD WE HAVE ONE? and the young lady at the desk - not even joking - looked at us seriously and politely said, "It is HIGHLY recommended." HELLO. B. Know how this works before you get there. There are a lot of meat coming your way. It's really ok to say no if you don't feel up to it. For example, I didn't eat anything fowl meat. If it's chicken or turkey, I wasn't eating it because I was there for the BEEF. I didn't want to stuff myself on meats I can literally eat in my own home (sorry, but I'm a relatively good cook, so I"m a bit picky). It's REALLY ok to not have something you're not up for, OR to ask for three pieces of something you really want! C. If you like beef: I highly recommend getting as many as possible (without looking like a greedy jerk) as much as possible the garlic beef (I'm sure there's a fancier name for it that escapes me at this moment) and the teriyaki beef. I don't even LIKE teriyaki sauce and this was DELICIOUS. D. When they ask you, ask for your meat RARE even if you like it medium. If I can complain about this place, it would be about how well done the meats were. I asked for "rare as possible" and most of the meat offered to us were at LEAST medium or medium-well done. I was really disappointed. I honestly think I could give this place a 5 star recommendation had it not been for this particular disappointment. The establishment is clean, and the clientele is what you'd expect of it: lots of family celebrations, you've got your college students going on fancy dates, and couples who have money and no children. ;) read more

We went here last night for my birthday! It was my first time at Tucanos and we had a great experience! Meat is always coming around to your table and the salad bar is also very good! We came as a group of four and ended up staying pretty long. The staff was so kind and not trying to rush us out, we really appreciated that because we wanted to take it slow. We called to place a reservation and the phones were pretty busy but were able to get in for the next day. The only thing is that when we were seated no one came to take our order for drinks and give us a rundown of how the place worked. It was our first time so didn't know exactly what to expect. But once we asked they got us a server real quick and he stopped by often to see how we were doing. read more

Dear corporate offices, In your email subject lines do not say "your birthday meal is now available" if it won't be ready for 24 hours. You know what i don't read... full emails from companies. It should read "your birthday meal will be available in 24 hours" a dinner for 2 is 46 before tip... are you insane. It seems like the only delicious novelty item you have left is the pineapple. It's been real, but i think it's time for us to break up. Thanks for the memories. The verdict: Facebook status single. read more

Every time I come, I still can't believe Toucanos can serve such quality food at such a high volume. From the ice cold peel and eat shrimp cocktail which is cooked to an opaque perfection to the flame kissed skewered steak and pineapple, it just couldn't be better. If I could change anything it would be this, the restaurant is louder than a zoo at feeding time. But that's the mere excitement of us carnivorous loving humans resorting to our Primal instincts and not the fault of the owners are staff. Keep it up guys! read more

Ate here last weekend for my cousins BYU graduation and although the room was tight because we had a large crowd, the service was awesome. Paul, Kelly, Skyler, Josh, Mason & Brandon were such wonderful servers! Would definitely eat here again. read more

I need to just make a decision about how I am going to review UT establishments from now on. Do i judge them relative to other UT establishments or do I judge them against everything I've ever eaten? It would only alter my review of this place by about 1/2 a star but still I"m trying to provide some consistency and accuracy. On to the review.... I came here with work to celebrate something or other. I have been to a handful of Brazilian Steakhouses before, all were tasty. Way too much food though. First thing I noticed about Tucanos was the salad bar was a mess. Now I know there are lots of small children running around who aren't as skillful with a serving spoon, but my goodness there was some container that had at least 5 surrounding containers' contents inside it, making it some sort of beet/olive/ranch/mini corn/ shrimp monster. After I loaded a plate of veggies the meat started wandering our way. I must agree with the other yelpers, the pineapple was great. Everything else I had was decent. The meat was colder than I would like (the servers had been walking around with the same piece too long) and I often received "bad cuts". Either I'd get a piece of charred meat or a 3:1 fat to meat ratio on the slice I'd receive. The meat itself was for the most part well prepared, overcooked for my liking but I understand they are trying to please the average customer. There were some specialty drinks that people were enjoying (non alcoholic of course) that I missed but everyone else liked a lot. I didn't pay for this so I can't talk about the price, but it was an A-OK experience all around. Probably wouldn't come here on a date or without a large group. Unless I felt like stashing meat in my backpack or something. read more

This is not a 4 star Brazilian steakhouse in national terms, but it's definitely 4 stars for Utah County. I can't think of any other place around Orem, where for $12.95, you can eat pretty good meat until it hurts, push through and eat more. Surprisingly solid salad bar (cheese bread may have meth in it) that you can attack upon arrival to Tucano's. That's the other Pro in favor of Tucano's. It's actually a pretty quick lunch if you have a reservation and get down to grubbing as soon as you arrive. Try everything - here are some of my favorites: -Top Sirloin -Garlic Parm Beef -Sirloin Tip -Brazilian Sausage -Grilled Pineapple You can also add Filet, Shrimp and probably some other items I don't know about if $12.95 isn't your cap. PS - in case after eating 3 pounds of meat and feeling like you either want to nap or yak has you in the mood for dessert.... snickers cheesecake is money. read more

Went out to dinner with a group and when I heard we were going to a Brazilian steakhouse I instantly felt warm and fuzzy. Tucanos didn't disappoint with selection, quantity and frequency of meats that stopped by our table. The food and service was great with one small exception. I don't think our server really wanted me to, or enjoyed me ordering a beer. I got a weird reaction when I ordered it and it took about 10 minutes to get it. I later ordered another one and was asked "are you sure you don't want a water instead?" I looked at him and jokingly said "ive only had one (12 ounce) and its pretty much water anyways (bud light)". He looked irritated and returned about 20 minutes later with my beer after having to ask another server about where it was. I don't live in the Provo area, is it taboo to order a beer with your meal or are some just scared of it? read more

I have been to Brazil and eaten at a Churrascaria in Brazil (called "Baby Beef" in Morumbi) and I would say Tucano's does a pretty good job of replicating the experience. The food is great and plentiful, although the service is not quite as awe inspiring as I experienced in Brazil. Try all the meats, they are all great. Last time I went they were having a seafood special, and the Cod and the shrimp were fantastic. Don't neglect the salad bar! They had all of the food I enjoyed eating in brazil, including Pao De Quiejo (which I ate way too much of), rice and beans with Farofa, and lots of other goodies. Also they have Guarana! The only downside is the price. Which is very pricey. But it is within reason to go on a special occasion every once in a while. read more

Grilled, tender, moist, flavorful Brazilian-style meat. An intriguing and diverse salad bar. Fried bananas and grilled, juicy pineapple. What's not to love about Tucanos? Some might say the price, but for an occasional splurge and belly-busting carnivorous pleasure, I would recommend Tucanos to anyone. Women like that it's exotic and indulgent. Men see all that meat and start drooling onto their plate. It's a sure-fire winner for a dinner date. So keep that marker with the green side up until you can scarcely breathe, you're so fat. That's why I love Tucanos, and I can't get over how spoiled Utahns are for having one in Provo. I wish they had an equally good churrasco in Sacramento now that I have relocated. read more

For those that don't know, Tucano's is a rodizzio type of restaurant, which basically is the coolest experience ever. They bring meats on swords to your table and you get to try and eat all of them. The meat service includes usually includes a salad bar filled with great fresh items and some hot entrees as well. So they are basically a fun different kind of buffet with great... GREAT meat. (At least in most cases) I really like Tucano's. I always think why I shouldn't give 5 stars when I rate a place, so I look for bad things of my experiences, but in all honesty, nothing has ever gone wrong at Tucanos in all my many.. MANY visits... -The meat is good, the little seafood they have is good (It was awesome when they had that season seafood-fest included with the regular price). -The salad bar is always fresh and well kept, with items always getting refilled. -The service is always good, and nice. -The brazilian lemonades are a must try (seriously) free refills and you can change the flavor every time they bring you a new one. Its just a fun environment with meats being brought to you and the birthday songs in portuguese every 5 minutes sometimes! haha. If you recently moved to Utah county, or are there for a visit, Tucano's is a must go. The price is a bit on the expensive side, but 20-25 bucks for an all you can eat quality food, is not bad at all. Also, their lunch menu is cheaper (like 16 bucks or so) but it comes with less variety of meats, still a good deal though. Their dessert are pretty good, but I wouldn't save precious meat and salad space for them. That's just me though. Also make sure you make a reservation if you are going for dinner during the weekend, as that place tends to get PACKED. So reserve with time, or face a half hour to an hour wait. read more

What I really wanted to do was to give this a 3.5 stars, and I'll detail the reasons below. We had a reservation for 6:00pm for a party of ten, and was told that we could only sit for an hour and a half due to the number of patrons in the restaurant and ones who are waiting for tables. (I believe it is graduation). Once we sat down, we were able to go to the buffet portion and grabbed the non-meat portion of the buffet. The had many fixings for salad, and some prepared salads available, as well as some roasted vegetables, deep fried bananas, and some thing that was similar to polenta but wasn't exactly sure. The sides range from decent (salad fixings) to ok (tuna salad, vegetables), to not so good (crab salad, sawdust stuff). Anyways, I would suggest trying everything and seeing what you like and just eat that. Onto the meat portion, the cuts of beef was tender and juicy, while the pork was tasty, the chicken was a tad dry. Servers came around the table quickly to give you many cuts of beef, and it seemed like they were on the clock to try to get you out the door (hence the hour and half limit). After coming around a couple of times, everything was "on request" only, we had a few more request. We left without seeing the dessert menu because there wasn't enough time, we saw it on the way out while they try to get us to get dessert to go, and I figured that since I was in Utah, there are better places to have dessert. The time limit did feel like it put everything in a rush, the value was good ($22.95 for dinner for adults and $8 for children as of 2016). The price is probably what will keep me coming up, but there is a place in Salt Lake City called Texas De Brazil, I think I'll go there next time. read more

My favorite Brazilian. Love the pineapple and tri-tip. Problem: getting the meat you want. Solution: Ask for it and they will bring it. read more

Dropped my fork and they wouldn't give me a new one. Had to eat with tongs. Came here for my company Christmas party. They packed 100 of us in a room made for 45 (according to the capacity sign.) Needless to say things didn't go well. Servers and guests couldn't get up rows. It was really a pain. The worst part was there was another room of the same size empty. Would have preferred to have our party split. I come here a few times during the year. In the future I think I am going to go elsewhere. read more

Love the warm smiles and great food!! My wife and I are club Tucanos members and go for our birthdays and get a free meal. We also try to go around 3 so we pay for lunch about $17.50 a meal but they start to bring out some of the dinner items. Anyway we love this location and go about 7-8 times for the past 4 years! read more

Tucanos Brazilian Grill - Orem - The Death by Chocolate cake!! Well worth $8 that we paid! - Brazilian Near Me - Orem, Utah

I've been to quite a few Brazilian steak houses but this was my first experience with such a restaurant in Utah and I must say it was a major disappointment. The service was terrible, the food was average, and the servings of meat are small and way too far and few between. Let me start from the beginning. We arrived a few minutes before our 2:30 reservation to a tiny lobby packed full of hungry and waiting customers. By 3:20 we were finally led to our table in an area of the restaurant where neighboring tables were only inches away. While waiting for our server I couldn't help but wonder how long we would have waited without a reservation. Thank goodness they had a teeny tiny lobby to handle the herds of patrons wanting to stay warm during the cold Utah winters. At the end of our meal I learned the size of our party was large enough to land us in the "auto tip" category. This would have been fine with me had the service not sucked big time. Our server couldn't even handle our drink orders! He took nearly 10 minutes to get our drinks despite our nagging a manager walking the floor. I mean, seriously, what else is he doing? Other employees are handling the distribution of meat, patrons are getting sides from the serve-yourself food area, and the waiter is getting drinks and refills. Talk about an easy gig and yet he was totally overwhelmed by our drink order consisting of water and Dr. Pepper. Here is a guy who would literally struggle if you asked him to chew gum and walk at the same time. Why would you hire someone like that to be a server? Okay, moving on... The servings of meat are tiny. I quickly figured out I could get bigger servings by simply asking, but why do I have to ask? It's a steak house, why be chintzy with the main product? I have heard the location at the Gateway Mall is better but I'll wait until my birthday card from them arrives in the mail before I give this place a try again. read more

The food was amazing and the service was excellent. My boyfriend kept saying how delicious the meat was and was super impressed. Everyone was so polite and helpful. read more

We ordered shrimp around 9:00 and it didn't get to our table until we were finished eating at 9:45 (Disappointing). The men who brought around the meat etc. did an amazing job and were very attentive. The waiter was MIA and checked on us once.... I still left a fantastic tip!! read more

I want to start off with Tucanos in no way asked me at any time to revise my review. I am doing this because when I see true customer care and service it would be a failure on my part not to recognize it. I originally had a very harsh review due to wait times on the phone. However the management addressed my concerns and took full responsibility. They did so many things to show me they cared about my business. Me, one person that they could live without and did not have to worry about my opinion. That alone shows me great class and true dedication to every customer. I did return and at no time before the check did I say in any way who I was. The waitress was extremely friendly and helpful. The staff that served us the meats were amazing and plentiful. I love the chicken hearts! The food was outstanding and the salad bar had fresh and flavorful foods. I spoke to the Manager before I left and he was aware of my complaint and said he and the GM had discussed it in length. I left happy and felt like Tucanos had something others have forgotten, true class. I changed my review to 5 stars because not just the incredible food is worth a visit, but the fact that a business actually cares about every customer, no matter who you are or how much they make off you. I strongly recommend this restaurant to everyone. read more

I've been coming to Tucanos for years and have noticed a gradual decline in their quality of food and service. The meat use to be pretty good quality but now it's tough. I feel like the worse quality the meat, the more they over season to try and compensate. It's still not terrible, but is going downhill. Plan on spending at least $25 per person when you go. Never eat the sushi. It's terrible. They have a lot of variety in the buffet area but it's kinda hit and miss with everything. The wait usually takes forever. Last time they said it would be 40 minutes and ended up being over an hour. Some of the servers can be very careless with what they are serving. One server was holding every dish he brought out at an angle so juice got all over the table and sometime on people themselves. Funny thing was how oblivious he was even when you tried to point it out. read more

MEAT!!! No, seriously. Meat. Tucanos is a fascinating place. You sit down, and there's only one thing on the menu (the Churrasco), which is a massive amount of shenanigans involving a salad bar that has fried bananas, cheese balls, and salad. There's another half to the Churrasco equation though,and that's Meat. Lots of Meat. Once you're ready, you flip the red-yellow-green cylinder to green and boom! The waiters arrive with a variety of meats. For the most part, these meats are skewered on a sword, and then the guy holding the whole thing slices off meat for you to eat. It's very easy to get way too much meat, but it's all incredibly good. My personal faves: the sausage, the turkey wrapped in bacon, the parmesan beef, and the pineapple (not a meat, but also skewered on a large sword). Now, this place is not for the meek. You will get a LOT of meat. Pace yourself. That being said, it's fantastic, and an incredible experience to boot (they like to bring out drums for birthdays, in that fun way, and not in the cheesy way). Overall, outstanding! read more

You know, you've been here. Meat. Steak. Chicken. We all have our favorites. Pineapple is the perfect way to end your meal. Decent service, clean restaurant. Maybe it's the change but their location in Provo was way better than their current. Personal opinion there. It's a good place for a company get together or a big family dinner. read more

This place was stupid loud. Like, obnoxiously, terribly, ok-honey-I've-had-enough-let's-gtf outta here. Whomever came up with the idea to sing HAPPY BIRTHDAY and bang drums should be flogged. Whomever thinks it is cute should have loud, noisy, battery operated toys gifted to their children by friends and family. And have those same kids fed instant coffee and cotton candy. That, my friends, would be justice. The food: excellent salad bar. Decent meat. The wait staff: my guy couldn't tell me the difference between the caipirinhas offered. "Oh, I'm sorry, I don't know that much about alcohol, hahah!" Uh, dude, I don't know much about the difference in a hex wrench and a vice grip, but I don't sell the things, either. Study up, bonehead. Geesh. Anyway, he tried to sell me shrimp with this cheesy intro, and I was all "Steak will do, thanks." The atmosphere: no. The drinks: yes. Decently priced, and well-made. The price: doubleyew tee eff, mate. wow. Way too high for way too little return. Take your cash, and go to Golden Corral. Seriously. All the meat you can eat, less noise, and no sales pitch. read more

This is a fairly iterated restaurant meme at this point. And, like freebased drugs, no place that drowns you in meat a slice at a time will ever compare to that first experience. But I thought it was worth a review to point out that this place had particularly well cooked food - none of the overdone-ness you sometimes see in these places - and offered a temp selection on the steak cuts. Even the chicken hearts (easy to screw up and toughen) were just right. The servers were willing to alter their order of presentation, skipping or re-presenting particular items. The salad bar here is better than average too, with enough vegetarian selections on the salad bar and on the skeweres that it doesn't feel like the "parade of meat" some of these places do. The salad bar has a good olive and pickle selection on it, more variety in fruit than you typically see, and a lot of hot dishes and pasta. They had fresh, well made couvee, which is always nice to see. I didn't really care for the attempt to upsell premium skewers. It's not that I don't like or mind the notion that there are some things not included in the fixed price, it's that the way it is done here is a bit unclear and it makes you question which items are which. But the staff is good about explaining thing, and the upsells are for whole skewers of things like filet. The staff in general was very attentive here, with a head waiter and a table captain both checking on our service. Our waiter and meat carvers were very on the ball as well. Considering there were several big tables there, I was actually a little surprised our party of 3 at a back table wasn't neglected. The "brazilian lemonade" is pretty good. One dish I was looking forward too and didn't see (although it may be on the alacarte menu, I didn't look that over well) was feijoada, a strange omission of a staple. One touch I liked was the salad bar was sold separately for almost half price, and there are reduced price options with limited skewer service, so dieters, vegetarians, and those on a budget have some options here (although this is essentially a buffet restaurant presented very well, have no illusions). Speaking of vegetarians: the cutters brought more than one preparation of pineapple, and a decent squash, onion and pepper kebab, but I would strongly consider asking about the menu on the day of your trip before you pay full price - the salad bar has a TON of options if there aren't enough veggies on spits that day. This place is definitely above the par set by the Rodizio's chain, and worth going a bit out of your way for. The surrounding shopping center has some other restaurants and ice cream parlor type places and is pretty walkable. There's a ton of parking in a lot that is outside the outdoor mall - it looks like you're going to have to walk a long ways, but it's a trick of the eye. Your meal with drink and a good tip is going to be around 30 with no alcohol for dinner - but it's buffet portions of better food than most family restaurants. Tropical drinks are there, including caipirinhas, and their raw ingredient, cachaça. We didn't drink on this family outing but the drinks being served look like a fair value for their medium price tag (on a scale of "PBR to fine scotch") - about 6-7 dollars for a big tropical drink. I neglected to evaluate if they had any wines. That's on me, not them. Like many restaurants in Utah, alcoholic drink service is slow by design, so you'll probably want a soft drink of some kind if you are actually thirsty. Standard disclaimer applies: It's hard to rank every restaurant on a 1-5 scale so please understand the stars above are stars of relative merit within the "type" of dining evaluated...I reserve the right to give a particularly well run Wendy's a higher score than a particularly crumby Ruth's Chris without saying burgers are better than steak! read more

Came here for work and my hotel suggested i go here, the service was GREAT!!! I recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

On a damp, gloomy Friday in January, we had an enjoyable experience at Tucanos. The dining room is elegant, with big windows, warm wood trim and splashes of bright, tropical colors. Service was friendly and professional, and the food was delicious. I especially enjoyed the sushi from the salad bar, the barbecued chicken thigh, the garlic steak, and the beef brisket--very tender, with a mildly spicy flavor. The grilled pineapple made a nice finish to the meal. One of our party also ordered a creme brûlée. He said it was better than his mom's. The only meat I didn't care for was the tri-tip, which I found a bit tough. My only other criticism is that service was a tad slow, compared to other Brazilian steakhouses we've been to. The place was packed to the gills, and it was very noisy. Still, the mostly college age staff handled the crowds quite well. The restaurant is also surprisingly kid-friendly. The children seemed to enjoy the food and the lively atmosphere. Maybe they'd all worked up an appetite at the nearby Provo Beach activity center. Tucanos is located in the Riverwoods pedestrian mall. Strung with sparkling lights, dotted with heat lamps and flickering braziers, it's a nice place to walk on a cold winter night. read more

We love Tucanos! The best part was one server, Matt C. He had only been there a week but his professionalism was outstanding and he made us feel very welcome. Thanks Matt! read more

The food is a bit inconsistent but several of the meat options are really good. The ambience is fun, the Brazilian Lemonade is crazy good. And Thomas is the man. If you get him as your server, he will take good care of you. read more

Although Tucanos Brazilian Grill is a little pricey, they offer an amazing salad bar with hot entrées and of course freshly cooked meats of all types. I particularly love their bacon wrapped turkey and pepper steak. Add a tropical smoothie and Tucanos serves up one of the best lunches or dinners you could ask for. read more

i'm kind of a snob with my meat and usually don't like all you can eat type places. for brazilian grills i do love fogo de chao and haven't found anything that is as good here in utah. this place was surprisingly pretty impressive. not quite up to par as fogo de chao, but it's like half the cost so not bad at all. i tried a few of their limeades and my favorite was the strawberry. their salad bar is huge and i love that they have the gluten free items marked. i was obsessed with their mashed potatoes since it had that nice melted cheese on top. if you went to this part of the buffet back over the summer and wondered why half the cheese was gone, i'm sorry, that was probably me. i also enjoyed their marinated mushrooms. i was disappointed that their pao de queijo (brazilian cheese bread) wasn't gluten free, but that's okay as it gave my stomach more room for the meats. i let our server know that i had an allergy and he let me know the only meats that had gluten in them were the pulled pork (comes by in a silver tray) and the breaded fish. i tried most of the meats and my favorite was the picalho (garlic parmesan beef) and the alcotra com bacon (center cut sirloin wrapped in bacon). everyone seemed to love the picanha (top sirloin), but i found my piece to be very salty. i must have just gotten a bad piece. i thought the honey glazed ham was a bit too sweet, but really loved the brown sugar glazed pineapple. i think our group ate a whole pineapple by ourselves - it was so good! service was excellent and our large party was taken care of. i thought it was cool to find out this was the original and first location of tuscanos! our table never wanted for anything and meat was consistently coming by. if you wanted more of something, the staff would communicate with each other, and voila you'd have your requested item at your side within minutes! read more

Tucanos Brazilian Grill - Orem - Allergy list - Brazilian Near Me - Orem, Utah

See all

This place is amazing and would recommend to everyone that's looking for a great date night place. It's a fun experience to have them bring you out all the different types of food that you just peel off of their big old skewers of meat. Be sure to ask for their grilled pineapple with cinnamon sugar. It's a secret menu item that not too many people know about. Also try the guava lemonade. It's pretty amazing. read more

I can't get enough of this place. The food is wonderful. (except the chicken hearts and gizzards , :) ) A few times they over salted the meat, but they quickly replace it for you. You get a wonderful salad bar which is stocked with wonderful fare including soups, salads, fruit, snacks, cheeses, sandwich meats, pastas, and more. That alone is a meal. When you sit down to eat after getting your salad items, you turn over the little wooden thingy to green and the servers start bringing the meats. They will bug you, in a good way, asking if you want the next selection of meat. Accept and they slice off a bit and you grab it with tongs, or if something like a chicken wing, they place one on your plate. This continues all night until you turn the little wooden thingy to red. I love the roasted pineapple and the beef brisket. The sirloin tip and Carne Marinada are great too. The meats you have a selection of are: *FAV means I really like it. Beef: Picanha (Pea-CON-ya) Top Sirloin Fraldinha (Frow-JING-ya) Beef Tenderloin *FAV Picalho (Pea-CAL-yo) Garlic Parmesan Beef Assado (Ah-SAH-do) Marinated Beef Brisket Carne Marinada (Car-NEY Mar-in-NAH-da) *FAV Maminha (Ma-MING-ya) Sirloin Tip Pork: Linguiça (Ling-GWEE-sah) Brazilian Sausage Presunto (Pre-ZUN-toe) Brown Sugar-glazed Ham *FAV Lombo (LOAM-bow) Pork Loin Birds: Peru (Peh-ROO) Turkey wrapped in Bacon Contra Coxa (CONE-trah CO-shah) Coração de Frango (Cor-ah-SWON de FRAHN-go Seafood and Veggies Frutos du Mar (FRU-toes du Mar) Seafood Selection Legumes (Leh-GOOM-ees) Grilled Vegetables Abacaxi (Ah-bah-kuh-SHEE) Grilled Pineapple * FAV The downside to all this wonderful food is that there is usually no tummy room for desert. They have wonderful deserts too! DESERTS: *FAV - I LOVE THEM ALL!! Créme Brûlée: A time-honored favorite. Pudim de Leite: Our Brazilian Flan, richer and creamier than a traditional flan. Fruit Creams: A smooth blend of any of our fresh fruit purees & vanilla ice cream. Torre Chocolate: A decadent tower of chocolate cake. read more

This is the best of the best for Brazilian Grill. Now if you like salids, you will fill up with the increadable selection and tastes here. But most people come for the meat. The selection is perfect. You will see youre favorite cuts come by on a regular basis. It is all you may eat and we have found the flavor is better than the rest. Personal favorites outside of the meats are: grilled pinapple, cheese stuffed bread poppers, and the bannanas. So good. If by chance you are superman, the desserts are good. I recomend the lemonaid. Come Hungry! read more

I love their fried banana, chicken heart and collard green. If you want to stuff yourself with lots of protein this is a good place.

I love Tucanos. It's a great place to bring your friends. Their salad bar has a big variety, and their meats are usually super delicious. They do have bad days sometimes when the meats are average. It is pretty loud in the restaurant especially with all the birthday song singing going on all the time. But if you're not looking for a quiet place, this is a great option. read more

Tucanos is a great place to eat. We have been coming here with our family for years. BRADEN IS THE BEST MEAT SERVER WE HAVE EVER HAD!!! He was quick and cheerful. Truly the best!! read more

We had a great experience. Of course, the food is wonderful (it's why we went), but we enjoyed ourselves because of the service. Between Ryan and Connor, who had us either laughing our heads off or stuffed full of delicious grilled foods, to Skylear who made sure we were taken care of and that we had everything we needed and was kind and friendly and provided excellent service, we had a thoroughly enjoyable night. It was awesome. And we're not even getting paid for this review, so tucanos, you can contact us later if you're looking for a spokesperson. Thank you Connor, Ryan, and Skylear! read more

If you do not mind very loud eating establishments where they are constantly banging on drums and singing birthday wishes to other patrons while you are trying to talk then add another star to my rating. If you do not mind waiters being car salesmen trying to up-sell you to add a shrimp skewer or $4 lemonade to a giant buffet and unlimited meat dinner then add another star to my review. The food was good and as expected, lots of variety. Compared to my other experiences at Fogo in Atlanta, and a family owned place like this in the Kennesaw/Marietta area I was not as impressed with the food. It was more Americanized and lost some of its charm. read more

Tucanos is like a Fantasy Island for carnivores and a Mardi Gras for salad bar lovers. Simply put, Tucanos is a Brazilian BBQ experience that can only be experienced, not described (but I will try my best). First you start with an incredible salad bar appropriately named the "Unlimited Salad Festival." They have a vast variety of traditional salad items, fruits, veggies, meats, cheeses, and many unique and exotic international salads, many featuring seafood. The hot food station has familiar items like pasta, mashed potatoes, and rice, with many sauce options. They were featuring a new dish, "Risotto Catarinense," which is an incredible mixture of rice, bacon, and a creamed lobster sauce--wow, just wow. WARNING: You must resist the temptation to load up on the salad options ... the best is yet to come. The main event is the many meat selections ("Churrasco") offered and carved by attentive waiters. To get started, you have a wooden cylinder with a green side and a red side. Green means "bring it on" and red means "let me catch my breath" or "stop, I'm stuffed." Once you turn the green side up the servers start to bring you an almost constant parade of tasty meat selections, sizzling hot from the pit. There are so many great options, but my favorites include the garlic parmesean beef, sirloin tips, turkey wrapped in bacon, and the Brazilian sausage. And then there's the grilled pineapple--hot and indescribably delicious. It refreshes you mouth and almost magically restores your appetite. I always end with the pineapple, but I hit it hard several times in the middle too. They have many exotic fruit drinks. The Brazilian lemonade is good and you get unlimited refills for only $3.95. Tucanos also offers many delicious looking dessert options, but to be honest, in the many times I've eaten there I've just never had room for dessert. The tropical ambiance is fun and convivial. The place is a bit pricey--$20.95 for the full salad bar and churrasco meal--but you definitely get your money's worth. If you are hungry, or want to celebrate, this is the place for your feast. read more

I wish Tucanos was located everywhere. Fabulous service and great food. Must try the Brazilian lemonade. It has more lime taste then lemon and very sweet. There is a huge assortment of items at the salad bar. When I went, there were 13 different "meat" circulating through with the servers. So this is how Tucanos work. There is a little wooden device with one end colored red and the other green. If you leave the green portion exposed, the meat servers will stop by your table and offer you some goodies. If you want them to leave you alone, you expose the red portion. Green means "gimme more meat," Red means "leave me alone and let me digest." Tip on etiquette: use your tongs to grab the meat from the server and do not eat from it. It helps maintain sanitation. Every time I am in the Orem/Provo area, this is definitely a place I will visit. read more
