I loved the rock salt they put on the outside of the glass. The salmon tasted fresh and not fishy at all. We sat on the "patio" portion of the restaurant so we could people watch. Service was great and our waitress spoke english so that was helpful. If you are in the Ipanema area, its worth a stop in!

The feijoada is the best example I can give. There were absolutely no beans in the dish. Zero. It's like ordering red beans and rice but getting broth and rice. Thy somehow served a black bean stew without beans. It's pretty salty bordering on overly salted, and without the beans the texture was wrong. The sides were good but that's not why you order this dish. At least you can order feijoada for one. Explore a bit more and you'll find better food. Service is solid but doesn't speak much English. Indoor and outdoor seating is available though it's all relatively open to the outside.

Service was also very good, attentive and friendly, and the overall atmosphere was lively and pleasant. The buffet had a decent selection, though it was a bit hit or miss. Personally I skipped the sushi, as the fish looked a little darker than expected. But maybe that's the colour of raw salmon in Brazil. Cocktails were very good, though they did come with quite a bit of ice. Parking on the street is very challenging, but you mainly come here on walk, since this area is quite touristy and offers many stores nearby.

For starters the ambiance was great, and wait staff was very accommodating! We were greeted and seated right away! The salad bar was very appealing and was filled with a wide selection of choices.

When we sat down the staff started over with the different meats and all the ones I tried were sooooooo goooooood! I would highly recommend this place and will visit again, when I'm in town!

We were a a party of 14, and i know it's a lot to handle but from the start we were not attended correctly. Ordering food and drinks was a mess bc the server never asked for our drinks so we were all asking whoever passed by at different times since we had to be divided into 3 separate tables. Also we didnt receive everything that was promised with the feijoada rodicio. We were supposed to receive some sort of "shots" but we did not. Otherwise, the place itself is small but very pretty and romantic.

It's a fairly small restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the crowd seemed to be mostly locals--which is always a good sign. They're known for their traditional Feijoada (black bean stew), but I decided to go with the Filé Mignon com Catupiry (Filet Mignon with Catupiry cheese). I was a little skeptical at first--I'd never had filet with a cheese sauce before--but oh my god, it was delicious! The Catupiry cheese is seriously amazing. I definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. Next time, I think I'll finally try their famous Feijoada!

However, it is buttery and creamy. Very tender beef. I love every bite. If you want to go for healthier choice, I would go for Rotisserie chicken. Most of the dishes there I see are come with Rice and light fried seasoned potato cube. They are excellent to go with the sauce. It is a small diner with a bar center station, perfect if you go there alone and try to have some comfort food and the dessert place is just across the street for Gelato.

It's a ton of food so you can order one dish and split it and end up walking away with a solid meal for $4 each. Nothing fancy or anything close to it. I'm not sure it would pass inspection in the US but don't let that bother you because most other places in Rio wouldn't either. At least come for lunch and then once you do that it will enter the rotation for dinner.

And you honestly can't beat the location...right across from Ipanema Beach, which just adds to the whole vibe. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Rio. Highly recommend checking this place out!
