• Brazilian Steakhouse • Madison

Booked 26 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.

The Beef Wellington was to die for -- awesome! The Statehouse is a lovely location overlooking the lake, and surrounded by Christmas lights this time of year. A great place to celebrate a special event.
