    Quartier Latin.
    Camille M.

    Went here after walking the rounds at the Botanical Gardens. It's a such a cute little cafe. I love it! They have indoor and outdoor seating. Even if it is raining (like it was today) - the windows are open and it's such a pretty view. For a Sunday afternoon - it wasn't too busy. We seated ourselves & a waiter dropped off a menu. I ordered their Lemonade Juice - not sweetened. So i added some organic sugar - made it better. I ordered the Quartier Latin on a Baguette - which is a sandwich with Buffalo mozzarella, dried tomatoes and arugula. This was an actual good-sized sandwich that filled me up - and it was delicious. We had to request the check but that is something not out of the ordinary. I'd recommend it!

    Absolutely love this place! It's a piece of paradise with simple impeccable French cafe food. Nothing overly complicated - mostly sandwiches, eggs and croque monsieur, cakes but everything is done so well and with such good taste - it's hard to resist. The staff are smart and accommodating which is extremely rare in Rio. They make their own bread. Sitting outside in the courtyard is wonderful. And after lunch you can walk around the gardens. Not to be missed!

    This place is like pain quotidien if you are familiar with it! Hard to go wrong! Fast service, smiling waiter, good European style breakfast (croissants, bread with butter/marmelade, smoked salmon and eggs). It is simple but it does the trick. The granola and fresh fruits were specifically good. Only negative points, there is no a/c in the inside so it is pretty hot. Some of the bread slices were not fresh, just a couple, not a big deal because we had too much anyway.

    A hidden gem! Amazing bakery and coffee house just outside of the botanical gardens. Try breakfast, sandwiches or desserts, there's no going wrong with the quality of this small place. Prices are decent, atmosphere is casual, there is free wifi and the quality if their products is outstanding. A very pleasant surprise worth writing about.

    3.7 kmCopacabana

    We had lunch today at 18 do Forte de Copacabana, and it was an amazing experience from start to…read morefinish. The wait time was very short -- only about five minutes -- but it was a Wednesday and not a holiday, so I imagine weekends can get much busier. I'd definitely recommend arriving early or making a reservation if you plan to visit on a Saturday or Sunday. The food was excellent. We ordered the Pesto e Burrata, which was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. We also tried the Picadinho Tapajós, and it was one of the highlights: the beans were perfectly cooked, the farofa mix was amazing, and it came with a beautifully prepared egg and fried banana. Such a comforting and authentic Brazilian combination that I'm sure everyone will enjoy. For drinks, the strawberry caipirinha was spot on -- refreshing and perfectly balanced in sweetness. The passion fruit caipirinha also tasted great, although it could have had just a touch more sugar. We also tried the Limoncello Spritz, which wasn't really our favorite, but it may appeal to a different taste. The real star of this place is the view. It's absolutely impeccable -- honestly, there are very few places in Rio (or even in the world) with a setting this beautiful. Having lunch with a direct view of Sugarloaf Mountain feels priceless. Prices were a bit above average, but considering the location, atmosphere, and unforgettable scenery, it was 100% worth it. Highly recommend!

We didn't stay long because I wanted to do the paddle boarding - which I did. The red wine came with corks and they poured me another glass. They were also very kind to lent me the charging box to refuel my phone. Thanks.
