Bar · Copacabana · 211 tips and reviews
EatMeDrinkMeNYC: It is difficult to explain the difference between a bar, a boteco, and an adega. This spot falls into the category of ultimate late-night eats. Try the pickled garlic and a buraco quente (hot hole)
EatMeDrinkMeNYC: Try the buraco quente (hot hole) but ignore the BBQ sauce they give with it. Get some pickled garlic as well. Don't worry, you'll still be able to smooch afterwards.
Carlota Fernandez: Comida portuguesa expendida barra x gramaje, preparaciones papas estilo calabrese, queso gorgonzola, aceitunas pretas sabrosas y camarones hechos minuta fritos c/ ajo; maridar cerveza pilsener chopp.

jessica m. hintermeister: spicy chicken w. garlic & pepper = 'the dog's television' + side of manioca (starch from cassava plant) - made w. farofa (toasted manioc flour) scrambled w. eggs -> wash down with shots of cachaça
Natalia G: Old casual restaurant with really good food. We had chicken, filet mignon sandwich and caldo verde. Everything was delicious!
jessica m. hintermeister: run by customers who went there for 15 years before they bought it from the original owners because they didn't want to see it close.

Mohamed Beshir: Great place to eat, make sure that you skip lunch if you are aiming to have dinner at this place. My favourite was the garlic filet minion and I had lots of it :)
Ralph vdP: This is an experience! Though a little expensive, you literally get bombarded with the best meats at your table (all you can eat). Definitely something to try when in Rio.
Pacelli Castro: A típical Brazilian barbecue with a big differential: gentle and treined crew. Try the Ancho's beef and the ribs... It's melts in the mouth! Amazing!!!

Francisco Farfán Vásquez: Excelente lasaña y pizza, no olvidar pedir pan con ajo 👌
Campari: Great lasagne, prosecco... yum :)
Hiro Protagonist: Oh dear. How did this place get a 9 rating ? Unattentive service, supermarket penne, carpaccio drowned in lime juice with "rucola"... The only saving grace was the Brazilian Cabernet and the tiramisu.

Luis R.: Awesome spot!- pick & pay for your eats in the back meat market. Take a seat and wait staff will come around to collect and take to the grill. Ask for appetizers like; pão de queijo or garlic bread.
Gabriela Jardim: Lugar incrível para esse tipo se restaurante. O esquema deles é maravilhoso. Você escolhe as carnes na loja, paga e o garçom já vem pegar para assar na churrasqueira. Maravilhoso!
Kaléo Vianna: Um pouco caro e demorado. Mas muito bom.
