The drinks were fantastic, the bartender was superb and the vibe was super warm. If I lived in Rio I think I would be a regular coming to this car. If I ever come back to Rio I will definitely come to this bar.

Located in a great spot in the middle of Copacabana beach, in front of the Copacabana palace hotel,…read morethis restaurant has a large menu to offer. Of course due to its location and cool vibe the prices are going to be much higher rather than going somewhere more inland. Nevertheless, this place is an amazing place to people watch and enjoy some food and drinks. I got the shrimp empanada and the beef one and it was delicious and came out super fast!

Best cocktail bar we've visited in Rio…read more All the cocktails we had were really good. TLV2 was our favorite if you want a more fruity acidic drink with a nice foam. Trans-siberian express was the best if you're looking for a creamy chocolatey drink. Waiter spoke flawless English and they had English menus. No AC. They have an outside area in the shade. It's actually a pretty good spot. There might be mosquitoes at night, but they offer repellent.

Dare I say it?... The pulpo was better here than Madrid (my top for several years). We came by our…read morefirst night in rio because I love octopus and iberico ham. The service and food were on point!And the cocktails were out of this world. I had a tangerine cocktail with ginger foam and little red pepper balls. I don't know what magic happened during the creation of this drink, but it was amazing. We also had steak tartare, yum! Everything was great and we may even come back while we are still here.

Besides great food and drinks, you can get a seat in with a direct view to the sea, from Leblon beach. Arrive early to guarantee those tables. They have one with a nice comfortable sofa with a sea view as well. I have lost count of the amount of times I have been there. The main courses and desserts are always delicious, regardless of the choice. There is one starter though that I just dream about and cannot resist in all my Sunday nights (if you are a chefsclub member you get 50% discount in main courses and even starters). Scallops with cashew puree and cashew sauce. This is the most delicious starter, and a must have for all yelpers.

Good friends who are from Rio met us for dinner and drinks at this spot in Leblon overlooking the…read morebeach. We were a bit concerned about the price, since we had been trying to keep our dinners a bit more modest in price, but we figured we deserved a nice meal for a change. The cocktails menu is extremely interesting, with a large range of special drinks with evocative names (I opted for the "Public Enemy #1", which came in a small bottle (like for a 7oz soda) wrapped in a sort of newsprint with Al Capone's image on it. It was delicious, as were the cocktails my friends ordered. When we ordered dinner, there was a lot to tempt us, and while I might have wished to spare the budget by not ordering a starter, it had a dish that sounded so good to me, I could not pass it up--grilled octopus with açaí sauce. I had seen it on another table, and it looked great, so I had that, while one of my friends had a sort of salad with lentils and seafood (and the rest did without a starter). I have to say, my octopus was a bit lacking in flavour; even a bit more salt would have helped it out a bit, but it looked great and the texture of the octopus was excellent. For our mains, I had a dish of rice with duck (duck is one of those things I almost always order when I see it on a menu), while one friend had lamb ribs with polenta. Again, my dish was a bit lacking in flavour and it was actually a bit dry. When it came to desserts, our Carioca friends told us that they cannot go to this place without having dessert, and one in particular they order just about every time they visit. I took that as a good sign, so I ordered one of my favourites, a lime quindim with coconut ice cream. Happily for me, this was deserving of the praise our friends bestowed on it, and the one that they ordered, a sort of tres leites cake, was even better. All in all, given the pricing I cannot give it more than three stars, though if you went for just cocktails and dessert it might deserve four.
