This is the best and cheapest place to get your fixed. On a few occasions, I decided to try other açaí/ cheese bread place and immediately regretted it - far more expensive and mediocre cheese bread. Side note: apparently this place is the best kept secret, but not so secret, to get cheese bread.

I like asking tour guides because they have the ins and outs and of course what's good in the local scene. And couldn't go wrong with this place! It was divine!! There's a bit of a language barrier but they really tried to work with me to get my order right. I kept saying Acai Especial but I think that was something you take to-go or at home to share :) so he began showing me the bowls and I opted for the the bigger one. For R $27 I had a heaping bowl of açaí and then gave me 2 containers for toppings - 1 granola then the other some white tapioca that looked like torn styrofoam. This place is sit-down "diner" looking type and takes only cash. So make sure you have some local currency before you go!! I am so happy I was able to try some authentic açaí while in Brazil.

The acai was sweet but not overly sweet. I got mango, pineapple and strawberries with it. I loved how they didn't just put the fruit on top but they layered it like a parfait. The sweetness of the acai with the tart of the fruit was such a delicious balance. We had it for lunch one day and as an after lunch snack another day. The people don't speak English but that's mostly all over Rio, you can just use google translate or point to what you want. They have bowls as well as different sized cups. It's a really nice place inside, clean too. But you can miss it if you're walking too fast.

The juices were also really great, the fruits aren't usually available in the US (like the soursop and the cupaucu). I tend not to repeat restaurants on trips that aren't super long, but I have a feeling we'll be back for a snack! Oh yeah, they take debit but not credit card. So bring that cash!

It is a hole in the wall with a few outside tables and a bar inside with counter seating. An English menu with pictures is available, and they do accept cards. The acai bowl was super clean. Just pure acai puree served with table sugar and tapioca puffs on the side. The small bowl for about $6 was plenty for an afternoon snack. If time permits I may be back for some of their other sweet bowls, like the cupuacu.

I ordered a small bowl and it was a big portion. Toppings are an extra charge, individually priced, and come on the side. I chose bananas, toasted coconut, and honey. The acai bowl is sweet enough on its own, so honey isn't necessary, but the toasted coconut added a great texture. This is a great restaurant. There is plenty of indoor and covered outdoor seating, a colorful atmosphere, and I was attended to quickly.
