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!

We had the trio cod appetizer which came with a sausage item that was absolutely delicious. The cod fritters/ball were fine but not amazing. We then ordered the pulpo & baked cod.

On our fifth and final night in Rio, we decided to have dinner at a Portuguese restaurant called…read moreMercearia da Praça. It's a beautiful store/restaurant that specializes in Portuguese wines and foods. The interior is modern and classy, and the service was hands down the best we experienced in all of Rio. I ordered the Portuguese-style Filet Mignon, while my partner went with the seafood skewers. We also shared a bottle of red wine. Everything was absolutely excellent. The filet came with a rich Portuguese-style sauce or gravy and a side of house-made fries--such a great combination. This place was a perfect way to end our trip, and I highly recommend visiting this wonderful spot if you're in Ipanema!

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!
