View is of the beach and there are windows across the entire restaurant to enjoy the beautiful view. The restaurant is on the slower side, probably because it's a bit hidden to find, but the food turned out to be great! Lots of pasta options to pick from and risotto. Highly recommend the ravioli. Service for drinks is slower, so keep that in mind.

I am thinking the food options may have changed since someone reviewed this place last. We ended up…read moreeating a buffet. They did not have a la carte options. The buffet as ok. It wasn't impressive. Some of the food, especially in the salad section, looked like it had been sitting around for a while. I am not sure if this was due to it almost being dinnertime. The buffet included soups, fish, meat, rice. They also had something that resembled a quesadilla/ empanada. That was probably one of my favorites. At 6:30pm, the staff began coming around with different pizza selections that were included in the buffet. I tried their cheese pizza. The crust was average, but the cheese used was really good. We then also noticed that they had set out new food items in their cold/ salad section. The best part of the new items was the mango and watermelon. I gave it four stars because once the dinner options started coming out, the food quality improved. For drinks, they have water, tea, beer, soft drinks and mixed drinks. The buffet did not have dessert. For the buffet and two teas, I paid around $13 USD. Not too bad. The waiters did not speak English or Spanish, but we were able to communicate our needs with each other.

This century-old café is full of history, and having coffee here with a breathtaking view of Ipanema Beach and Sugarloaf Mountain is simply unforgettable. The ocean breeze makes everything feel extra special, and the service was excellent from start to finish. After eating, it's the perfect spot to continue your day with a walk along Copacabana or a visit to the fort museum right next door. I came with my family and had the chance to try several dishes. The cappuccino was outstanding, with the perfect balance of sweetness and a warm touch of cinnamon. The American toast with jam was delicious, and we also tried the pistachio éclair, which was very good, although it tasted more like a creamy filling than a strong pistachio flavor. The pastel de nata was small but really tasty as well. My favorite, though, was the "Queijo do Forte," a breaded brie that was absolutely incredible. The Assado de Gorgonzola was also perfectly prepared, full of rich flavor, and the meat was cooked just right. As a final highlight, I loved being able to enjoy a truly fresh natural orange juice with lunch -- something I really miss when I'm abroad. A perfect mix of food, tradition, and one of the best views in Rio.
