It was entirely by chance that I found Canastra, and I'm VERY glad I did! It turned out to be an…read moreentirely delightful venue :-) The wine list is compact, with some exceptionally priced, very nice bottles on it. They even have several good by-the-glass options. Their menu is tapas-style, with a number of small sharing plates; it contains dishes like goats cheese with onion marmalade, marinated octopus, paté de campagne, and burrata of buffalo mozzarella. All the dishes on the menu are accompanied by delicious warm baguette, and the prices are all extremely reasonable ((R$19 - R$25 each). Our server was very friendly and attentive; we left quite satisfied and very full :-) Tip: If you're a fan of oysters, then Tuesday is a great night to come to Canastra! On Tuesdays they have reasonable priced raw oysters that you can order by the half dozen :-)

We came here in a rainy night, we did not have any reservations and we were looking to have some…read morebeer and some food. Parking around here is street parking, but I would tell you not to drive here as the city has a "dry law" where not a drop of alcohol can be found in your breathalyzer so just UBER here. next door to this spot they sell the corn cachaca very worth the try, so do walk next door and get some, they at this bar have no problem with you bringing the cachaca as long as you are also spending money at their spot. they here have some great food items as well as drinks. our friends int for the traditional beer, they had a good amount of them. I am not a big beer drinker so I went for the caipirinhas. - PASSIONFRUIT CAIPIRINHA - this one is pretty good if you like the sour taste of the passionfruit. - STRAWBERRY CAIPIRINHA - I went for this one as I am a sweetie at heart and only sweet drinks can come my way to make me happy. for the food we had a very eclectic mix of stuff. - FEIJOADA CAKES- they make this deep fried feijoada cakes with everything you find in a feijoada even the greens. this was impressively tasty, I was not expecting this appetizer to be this good. - PIZZA: PORTUGUESA- has a mix of many different veggies and meats with some scrambled egg on top, it is a pretty good pizza. - FRANGO COM CATUPIRY - i love the catupiry cheese and the chicken gives the saltiness making the flavor complete. the pizza here is cut as shares making it easy to eat as a finger food and perfect to share, we were 4 people and it was plenty for all of us, we had the two flavors half and half of the pizza, it was perfect. overall we had a great time, service was good and the staff was friendly. this was a good experience. I will come back here on my next trip to Brazil.

I read about this place from other yelpers but never had a chance to venture out this way. Jardim…read moreBotânico neighborhood seems to have some very hip restaurants and bars that I would like to explore aside from the few Michelin rated ones we've tried. I love the atmosphere of this place, high on the second floor, after ascending a bright red welcoming staircase, it opens to a rooftop terrace with clear roofing in case it rains. The view is awesome and on clear day you can apparently see Cristo. The ceiling or open air above is strung with soft outdoor bulbs and the whole place seems like another world. We saw plenty of romantic couples and also large groups of friends, so it's accommodating to both types. The drinks were fantastic, made with good creativity. I tried a whiskey based drink with strawberry and lime and it was easy to drink but packed a lot of punch. The Pisco sour was also made with a delicate egg white foamed on the top, though not as good as the ones in Peru or Chile. The honey jack had just a touch of truffle oil which made it sweet and savory. The burger with Gorgonzola was quite good as well, and came with a side of crispy potato wedges. The teriyaki seared salmon was beautifully presented on a slate and had dollops of a creamy wasabi that paired fantastically with the sweet teriyaki. Lastly I tried the cheesecake which I was surprised to find deconstructed. It came on a plate as a melted mound of cheese cake mush with a strip of strawberry jelly and topped with a sprinkle of graham cracker crust. The flavor was quite good but I would have preferred a more solid cheesecake with a lot more crust. Overall, the food was fairly good, the atmosphere was dynamic and the sky was perfect. Good for a night out with friends or on a date. Just plan it for a non-rainy day!

It kind of feels like you are outside since there is just a transparent tent over the top. I think during the summer, they take the tent down so you actually are inside/outside. You can see the Christ through the little cutouts in the wall. They've got cute hanging lights and it is very colorful and bright. The service was also really great. They were very patient with my group of gringos who asked for many substitutions and other funny things that Americans do, haha. I ordered the salmon with wasabi mayo and pineapple teriyaki with ginger chips. The price was very fair at about R$26. I wasn't very hungry so that was enough. If you are hungry, you will need more food. I also got a whiskey sour, which was good! The only difficult part was that each person had to remember what they ordered and they tallied it up in the end. It would have been easier if each person could have gotten a number.

You'll find many imports from Belgium, Germany, and the US along with some Brazilian brews. Don't get too excited before ordering.

Instead, the waiter served us a glass of beer. We assumed they didn't have samplers until we saw the same waiter serving someone else a small sample in a disposable cup. Not only did they sell less beer, but they proved discriminatory based on appearances, lost two customers and earned this one star review. "Artisanal" comes from US microbreweries where clientele is earned through communal bonds, trust and friendship. This place is a rude caricature of this original movement. Portuguese: Atendentes preconceituosos fazendo distinção de classes com clientes. Pedimos para "provar" um IPA antes de escolher um litro. Nos foi servido um chope de 220ml invés de um uma prova. Momentos depois, outro cliente pediu uma prova e recebeu a prova em copinho descartável. Não só venderam menos cerveja, mas foram desonestos e preconceituosos. Ganharam menos dois clientes e este review.
