I have come to this branch of italian food in Rio de Janeiro since I was a little girl. I have been…read moreto various locations and experienced different levels of service in each of the venues. Overall the servers are pretty ok and attentive. They try to carry the name as a more upscale dining experience and most of the time achieve that. They serve the meal with very awesome skill. The prices are in the fine dining range as well so if you come here be prepared to spend a little more than the usual. But it is definetly worth it. I used to eat the medallion a piamontese every time I came here and this is a filet mignon wrapped in bacon with a red wine reduction and a parmesan and mushroom. Sauce rice risotto and these two together are definetly some explosion of flavor. This last time we had the pizza rodizio with the unlimited pasta bar and it was amazing as well. This is hands down my favorite restaurant branch in brazil for life.

This is my favorite sit-down spot for pizza in Brazil (I say Brazil because they have locations…read morespread throughout major cities). As a local chain, there aren't an overwhelming number of outposts, and the pizza is good enough that I've seen lines at both this Rio and São Paulo location. The large restaurant can hold a number of people and it's nicer than a typical grab and go pizza place. You'll find locals making the queue to celebrate their birthdays and other special occasions. If there is a line and you don't feel like waiting, I recommend grabbing a table in the bar area and ordering your pizza to-go. While we waited, our trio enjoyed a few beers and by the time the pizza was ready, so was our table. We simply asked them to skip the to-go request and serve us at the table. The menu is chock full of different pizza options and you can't go wrong.

I have heard the pizzas from this restaurant are better than the Italian pizzas. I had to taste it…read moreand had to confirm. The service, the food, the location, the ambiance, the vibe, the atmosphere, the people there are first class. They seem to have a really good logistic and organization, because when I was there it was almost full. But the service manages everything and nobody waits too long. Good administration! I loved it. The pizzas are the highlight and the desserts are like heaven too! The restaurant per se is big, elegant, clean, simply and beautifully decorated and seem to be "in" in the moment. It is worth a visit/ or many visits. ------------------------------------- Das ist eine der besten Pizzas, die ich je gegessen habe. In Sao Paulo sind sie auch ganz berühmt und man sagt, die Pizzas von Braz, sind besser als in Italien. Ich kann das bestätigen. In diesem Restaurant sind die Atmosphäre, die Stimmung, das Essen, die Lage, die Bedienung herrlich. Sie haben eine gute Logistik, weil auch wenn es voll ist, wartet man nicht lange und alle werden gleich schnell bedient. Sehr gut!! Das Restaurant ist ziemlich "in" im Moment, habe ich gehört. Es ist groß, elegant, einfach und schön eingerichtet und ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert /oder mehrere, when ich die Chance habe, nach Rio zu gehen.
