On Thursday April 5, 2012 Tucano's opened their 5th restaurant. The others are in ID, 2 in UT and 1 in Albuquerque, NM. A few days before there was a blurb on the morning news and I was excited to have a new and different restaurant that is not like the normal chain eaterys here.
I didn't know what to expect when we entered but was pleasantly surprised. The concept is a huge salad / pasta etc bar and meats / fish / veggies & pineapple served at the table, some carved from the spit it was roasted on.

| 3 sided salad bar with the freshest, well stocked bowls. Everything has elegant, printed labels which is some cases are very important identifying each goodie, like the Edamame salad! |
 |
| Hard to see - sorry but the meat rods are on the bottom and the pineapple on the top right. |
 | |
| Top sirloin hunks. I had an outside piece and it was fantastic. |
 |
| Each place setting has a pair of tongs that helps the server remove the items from the skewers |
 |
| Chicken hearts!! |
The meal is sorta pricey for just a lunch - almost $14.00 per person so with ice tea and coffee and tip it was about $43.00. For us that is alot for lunch for no special occasion.
