The entrance is unassuming, but once you are in there, it's a big restaurant with tons of tables in the back. They have huge portions, great traditional dishes (think large steaks) and some fun twist (huge plate of spicy chicken wings). If you are in the area, come by this spot and you won't be disappointing!

We found this place from Tam Airline lounge, rated topped and was opened back in the 1800. When we…read morearrived, the entrance looked like a very small informal coffee shop, but when we decided to walk in, the back was a humongous restaurant packed with locals, the portions were large and we had their prime filet Mignon, almost the size of your plate, everything was excellent. The server seemed like they've been working there all their lives, service was superb. You should try their delicia lamas desert, it's surprisingly good with their natural matte drinks. I highly recommend

This area in Santa Teresa has shops, street art, restaurants and bars.

There's a balcony where you can peacefully e joy the views of the city including Sugarloaf Mountain. It's a great place to take pictures.

We ordered the brasil fried chicken and we grabbed some steak. So so delicious. The rice we had with the bean sauce. I usually have black bean sauce to accompany my rice but they had Peruvian beans in their sauce and it was like crack. Mayocoba is the official name of the bean if you're curious. Definitely a recommended place to visit after you've seen the famous Brazilian steps nearby. It was hard to find this place though on Google maps. It's not too far from the gas station next to Bob's burgers. Enjoy!
