Empanadas of all sorts, Chilean to be exact. Vegetarian or not, you'll find something for your…read moreliking. Service is okay, it remind me of those Asian restaurants which service are notorious bad, so they'd install a bell on tables so the server can see who needs their attention. Yep, that's what that button on the napkin dispenser is. It's a personal preference, but I like my empanadas to be flakier and more buttery. Here, the empanadas are well stuffed but the dough itself is dry and bit tough.

Delicious Chilean empanadas with interesting filling options make for a quick and affordable meal…read moreoption. This new outpost of the popular Villa Madalena bar and restaurant has the same great selection of grab and go mini meals in a dough wrapper including some nice vegetarian options. They also serve fresh juices and have a decently stocked bar. Thus far this spot is a lot quieter than the other restaurant, would be a great option for after party snacks but they close pretty early.

Went to Copas Terraço Bar as a part of the cocktail nights event on the occasion of World Gin Day,…read more2016. I did not know the place but then World Gin Day & Cocktail Nights along with a group of yelper friends, no thinking required, I was there. To get to the place by public transport after dark is kinda dicey as the streets are dark, I recommend that you Uber it or come with friends. The place is quite cool - lots of bean bags, sofas in a ample space upstairs. They do have space downstairs along with a barber shop but I did not get to explore this area. On a chilly day, it tends to get cold here so they place small blankets all around which is a great detail. The overall ambience is quite cool. As it was World Gin Day, I had a Gin & Tonic of the house - they used Bulldog Gin and with a tea infusion and a dash of Campari - quite an interesting mix. Once I had the drink, I saw that their bar menu was, strangely, quite limited. On reading other yelp reviews saying the same thing, I saw comments from the business that states that they over 30 options of G&T - I am yet to see this menu because the menu I saw had like a handful of options, so much so that I repeated the same drink. As for food options, I saw that there was a small kiosk of mercian food - nachos were at R$ 30 which I think were too expensive for what they served. The place has a cool vibe but the service is ordinary and cocktail menu is seriously limited. Also I was told that we had a reservation for our group but when we got there, they had hardly separated sufficient space for us. Maybe we got there a bit too early, maybe this place becomes more interesting later on, maybe they will find the menu with 30 G&T's - I don't really plan on returning to Copas.
