CHURRASCO BRAZILIAN STEAKHOUSE
Churrasco (pronounced "shoo-rhas-ko") Brazilian Steakhouse is a complete sensory experience. It begins at the side bar with appetizers, vegetables, salads, fruits, and Brazilian specialties. The meats are skewered and cooked over and open flame, and brought directly to your table for you to enjoy. They give you a special stop/go card to signify whether you want them to continue bringing meats to your table. Of course you'll choose the cut of meat as well as the doneness from rare to well-done. Don't forget to try their Brazilian flan and homemade papaya cream! (Coffees and desserts are extra.)

OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE
Outback Steakhouse, though a chain restaurant, gets a mention here because we love their private booths and delicious meats and entrees. Their prime rib and chops are absolutely out of this world, and of course a group outing isn't complete if you don't share a bloomin' onion! A taste of Australia right in your own backyard!
