Taurinus Brazilian Steakhouse

It was a little different from other places in it's organization, which was interesting. The place is beautiful. Staff were courteous, knowledgeable, and professional. Prices are in line with what you would expect for this type of dining in the Bay Area. The meats were well prepared and of good quality. They also had a pineapple, which I think is a must, but other more known places do not.

Oh man, so good! And this visit was perfect timing, because the beef rib came around 5 minutes after being seated! It does not come around very often, trust me. It's the best meat they offer. Second best is the top sirloin, which was also very nice. They didn't have a rare piece this time, however, but that's ok. Chicken wings and pork ribs are delicious! Shrimp is the next best. Garlicky and well-cooked. Kind of messy since you peel it at the table. Pineapple is usually very sweet, this time slightly sour, but not their fault. Other items good, but not as good: parmesan pork, Brazilian sausage, ribeye. Oh, and can't forget about the multiple servings of cheese bread (pao de queijo). Hard to stop at one! Didn't even have room for dessert this time. Or salad. July 2023 update. This time wasn’t quite as good as the past. Maybe it’s because we had reservations when they first opened and they didn’t cook enough meat yet. But the selection of meats coming around was small. It was still very tasty though. And they (added?) some seafood to the salad bar: mussels and some type of fish. Either that or I never noticed. Try the bbq’d pineapple. It’s a nice change of pace. Service was excellent. The servers work really hard. Nice cozy atmosphere.

I just visited Taurinus Brazilian steakhouse for the first time. I'm not sure how I've missed it for so many years. We were part of a group of 10 people that was accommodated efficiently and quickly. Their prix fixe menu makes group events simple and budget friendly. I enjoyed all their various meats, especially the beef ribs. The salad bar is outstanding and could be a meal in itself. They serve some amazingly flavorful appetizers; it would be too easy to fill up on them before the meat courses. In short, I love the place and would be very happy to go back again soon.

First time to Taurinus Brazilian and it did not disappoint! We were seated at a beautiful corner table on a Saturday night, and had a wonderful date night Brazilian dinner! All the cuts of meat were excellent! And the staff was superb! Not once did we have to flag someone down for any more meat. Everyone was so eager help. We will definitely come back next time we are in town.

In A Nutshell: -Taurinus Brazilian Steakhouse is a top-notch restaurant. -You will enjoy all of the premium meats: sirloin, flap, ribeye, beef ribs (my fave), bacon wrapped chicken, shrimp, lamb, sausage + more. -The chocolate lava cake is especially delish for dessert, its very rich & big enough to share. -I like the ambiance & cozy size, not too big or small. -The salad bar is good too which balances out the yummy meats. Overall, the staff is very kind & food was mouth-watering!

We were early birds, first to arrive when they opened. Staff were very welcoming and attentive. Crowd started to come in around 6-6:30pm. Selection of meats were exquisite and generous. I did not take advantage of their excellent salad bar and side dishes because I wanted to enjoy the meat. Definitely the best Brazilian restaurant in town❤
