5. Taurinus Brazilian Steakhouse
Taurinus Brazilian Steakhouse
The chefs here prepare local cuisine influenced by the flavors of Latin America, the American Southwest, and Asia. Although best known for their “Industrial Strength” margaritas and “Swirls” – margaritas mixed with fruit juices, vodka, Patron, or sangria – the food here is just as much of a draw. The dishes are prepared using organic and sustainable ingredients, like grass-fed bison. Aqui Cal-Mex operates without waiters and waitresses, letting diners order their food at the counter for a hassle-free experience. This allows patrons more time to enjoy the ambiance at their leisure.
