For those of you who are not current or former gauchos who roam the prairies of Brazil, you might need an explanation of our style of service. At the end on a long day of work tending to cattle and stock, Brazilian cowboys (Gauchos) and their families would prepare great feasts. They would skewer various meats, roast them over a fire pit and bring them to the table for carving. There would be a bounty of seasonal vegetables, stews and salads using fresh ingredients from the fruits of their labor.

    Very upscale, clean and contemporary. Our waiter was very friendly and kind and brought us a handful of wine samples for his recommendations. You can get samples of any wine there while you are dining. Will definitely go back. HIGHLY recommend the Calamari on the menu. Food came fast and the wine pours are generous :)

    It was ok. Catfish was the best. Both rare steaks we ordered was given to us medium. Old fashioned was passable.

    Lucille never disappoints. My partner and I go regularly, and the staff is always incredibly thoughtful and accommodating of my hearing loss—seating us in spots where I can comfortably engage in conversation. Ally, the GM, even reached out before our last reservation to let me know about a planned special event and the expected increase in noise. I was aware of it and am grateful for the care she gave. As expected, everything turned out great. It’s also heartening to see them support good causes. And as always, the food is excellent - I’m a fiend for the steel pan pizza. Great food, great people, great atmosphere.
