Outdoor seating today though was a definite plus, granted you're on a secondary road behind the main drag on Copacabana beach. We had picanha ao braseiro which is a kidney shaped steak with some fat - no complaints. It was a perfect medium with salt crystals that occasionally explodes in your mouth for that extra flavor. For 162 Brazilian Real(currency) for two people, it's a good deal. It came with diced tomatoe and onions a perfect offset. Happy I came here. Apologies for the pics - wasn't expecting to review the place.

They didn't really speak English but it wasn't difficult to order. We got the steak and chicken. They came with some kind of vinegar infused veggies, rice, powdered stuff, and fries. The guy helping us scooped food onto our plates. It was an odd but interesting experience. Overall we loved the meat here, and the service was also great! Not to mention it was super affordable! Highly recommend this place!

The hosts, Marcelo and Bebeto, made me feel so welcome. Yes, it is super pet-friendly so when my Firoozeh and I showed up, by Uber, we were greeted by their dogs as well. It is an incredible vibe because it is unexpected that so much elegance and sophistication would exist in such spot. The food is superb. The kitchen crew is amazing and stylish. Such elegant dishes and professional demeanor from all staff surprised me. I have enjoyed my visit and my wonderful meal so much. I suggest the beef ribs, the quindim ice-cream, and the salads. I'd like to comment that the place is sparkling clean and beautiful. Congrats to Lá Bistrô and all staff. My best wishes for health and success. Thank you so much!

The caldinho de feijão, essentially a cup of black bean "soup", was served with chicharrones and was so flavorful, I could have had a whole bowl of it. The highlight for me was definitely the empada de palmito, like a mini pot pie of palm hearts, it was so creamy, smooth and the pastry melts in your mouth. Of course can't pass on a caipirinha de maracujá (passion fruit), this one was probably the freshest of the whole trip!
