The coconut pastry is to die for! Not too much food, perfect for vegans and omnivores alike. Best meal I've had in all Brasil and I feel great afterwards (not bloated like after a churrascuria) : ) Plus they give you a little ginger juice drink before they see you off, Amazing!

This place gets busy during the lunch rush, but service is quick and so is finding a table. There's nothing nice about the ambiance here, but despite the appearance, the salad bar features fresh veggies ready for your plate and after you finish eating that, the server will come by and drop off your entree (whatever's on the menu for that day). The R$24 price tag also includes dessert, so overall, it's a steal for home-cooked vegetarian food.

This is a per kilo restaurant (buffet and they weigh your plate). There was some great options and we came at the end of lunch time. Extremely varied, local vegan dishes and the nicest falafels and bean patties! Highly recommended for a good and discreet meal!

Por causa do local, tinha muito mosquito, mais e só pedir um spray que eles tem no bar-problema resolvido rapidinho. A comida foi maravilhosa! Minha tia pediu um acarajé e a couve-flor crocante como entradas para dividir enquanto esperávamos o resto do nosso grupo. Os dois pratos foram muito bom. Como meu prato eu pedir o nhoque de aipim- foi muito bom, mais bem diferente do que eu esperava. Não sei si chamaria esse prato de nhoque, mais foi muito saboroso. Também foi um prato bem grande então levei um nhoque entero pra casa pra comer mas tarde (e ainda estava uma delícia no próximo dia). Minha prima e vários outros pediram o steak de berinjela com risoto de limão. Muito muito bom também. Com certeza voltaria aqui si tivesse mas tempo no Rio...voltarei na próxima viagem.

We also tried all three of their juices (red fruit, passion fruit/mint, lemon/ginger), which were great. Our two kids also enjoyed the food. Only issue is that the address in Yelp and Uber is incorrect. They moved from their original location. This restaurant is very close to the Botanical Gardens at 37 R.
