| - Came here for my Birthday on the 20th having seen that the place was open when I went to the Jack Astors a few weeks back to watch them get eliminated. I was planning on going to Copacabana, but decided to try this place out since it was so much closer to my home.
Its strange how my family's experience with the food/meat at Touro differed so much. We actually greatly preferred the meat at Touro, feeling that it was very well seasoned, not nearly as deathly salty as it was at Copacabana. Ill agree with him though that there were a couple cuts that were a little overdone and a bit on the dry side (leg of lamb/lamb chops) but really everything else was amazing. Delicious, tender, well seasoned meat. Friendly staff that were willing to explain anything to you, whether it was the cocktail menu, wine menu, the food at the appetizer buffet, anything!
I had a capririnha, which I had never tried before and boy does this thing pack a punch haha.
The "special" appetizers that were brought to the table ahead of time were a little underwhelming but for us it was something different to try. We loved the fried banana.
The decor at this place was really nice, I loved the cool light fixtures they had, as well as the open view into the kitchen, we were able to see the meat getting grilled as the night went on!
My family definately wants to come back, and I know that me and my friends really want to come back sooner rather than later!
