Pineapple was blended in front of me, can't get any fresher then that. Outside patio is also a plus. Not to mention their taste of music was great

More to it than meets the eye. When you first walk in, it's…read morea teeny tiny place. Then you walk around the corner and your suddenly up on a balcony with a huge floor (with its own bar in there). We went there with low expectations. The place turned out to be great. They had a superb 80s band playing some great hits for the night. The waitresses were also in top of their game and keep the caprinhas flowing. Their 'system' was a bit weird. When you enter they require to see your ID. They then enter you into a system and assign you a swipe card. You need the swipe card to buy things. No cash is exchanged until you are leaving the bar. At that point you go to a cashier. Everyone must hand I their card and pay the fee (pro tip: if you are a couple, put some drinks on each card, as otherwise you will be stuck with an admission fee on the zero balance card), then you get a token to leave, which is carefully examined by the bouncers. Strange, but pleasantly surprised by the night.

This is a great spot to watch a soccer match and grab some higher end bar food. I had the chefs…read moreburger and it was delicious - the cheese gooey so it fell apart pretty quickly.

They offer five or six artisan burgers which are all reasonably priced (~$8-9 USD)--I'd also suggest getting two burgers and sharing. We were there during the low season so not crowded at all. The lone negative experience was the entertainment fee added to our bill for a cover song singer (it's apparently standard in Brasil to charge an entertainment fee when there is live music). That charge in addition to the 10% tip they arbitrarily added made it a little more expensive than we anticipated. Overall, great experience and reasonably priced food. Would recommend if you'll be there for 4-5 nights. Also offers a reprieve from the rice and beans that you are endlessly bombarded with at every restaurant.
