Tucanos was located in the Riverwood Shopping Center in Provo but moved to University Place in Orem a year ago. Fortunately, nothing has changed about the food and service--only more space in the new location. Meat is king here, but there are lots of other options, including an amazing salad bar. It costs $$$ but is worth every dollar!

I have been eating here for many years but only average 3-4 visits a year. The ceviche is fantastic and among some of the best I have ever had. It's consistently good. Only issues preventing 5 stars is service is slow at times, (Limited staff), and the bathroom was very unclean. That issue was severe and it even felt like watered down soap. I am an international traveler so can overlook these things but it was something that needs to be addressed. Chips are average, and the salsa is too watered down (Not chunky). 5 stars on the Ceviche and authenticity, friendly staff, 2-3 stars on atmosphere and 1 star on the bathroom issue (If I could give that a 0 I would). I still will visit for the food quality!

The manager, Carter, was so nice to work with. He made lots of calls (including to the owner) and accommodations for us. We ended up not having the party and he was very kind. Offered some recommendation for the future.

This restaurant is everything you would expect in South America. The bread and desserts are made authentic and fresh daily, the ingredients down to the beverages are the same lining the streets of Chile, Argentina, and Peru, and the environment is very friendly and warm. Even things like the hot dogs (completos) are a better breed than what you're used to.
