• Brazilian Steakhouse • Madison

Booked 36 times today

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.

We had the most delightful evening at Buck and Honey’s. The menu had some interesting choices. We had the Brussels out and cauliflower appetizer which was quite tasty. Service was excellent. And there was live music - not too loud just perfect. We stayed longer just to listen to the performer!
