I ordered a small bowl and it was a big portion. Toppings are an extra charge, individually priced, and come on the side. I chose bananas, toasted coconut, and honey. The acai bowl is sweet enough on its own, so honey isn't necessary, but the toasted coconut added a great texture. This is a great restaurant. There is plenty of indoor and covered outdoor seating, a colorful atmosphere, and I was attended to quickly.

Should get 40$R back but when we asked for it after around 10 Minutes waiting, they gave us only 10$R and claimed we had paid with a 20$R bill. That was simply not true! After long unpleasant discussions and a unrecognizable survailance video on a smartphone (way too small to see anything) we left 40 minutes later WITHOUT our money. Outrageous how they deal with customers!!! The most expensive Cappuccino we ever had was also really bad. It says McCafe but has nothing to do with their quality brand! It is made from powder and hot water. :( AVOID THIS PLACE UNDER EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE!

The wait time was very short -- only about five minutes -- but it was a Wednesday and not a holiday, so I imagine weekends can get much busier. I'd definitely recommend arriving early or making a reservation if you plan to visit on a Saturday or Sunday. The food was excellent. We ordered the Pesto e Burrata, which was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. We also tried the Picadinho Tapajós, and it was one of the highlights: the beans were perfectly cooked, the farofa mix was amazing, and it came with a beautifully prepared egg and fried banana. Such a comforting and authentic Brazilian combination that I'm sure everyone will enjoy. For drinks, the strawberry caipirinha was spot on -- refreshing and perfectly balanced in sweetness. The passion fruit caipirinha also tasted great, although it could have had just a touch more sugar. We also tried the Limoncello Spritz, which wasn't really our favorite, but it may appeal to a different taste. The real star of this place is the view. It's absolutely impeccable -- honestly, there are very few places in Rio (or even in the world) with a setting this beautiful. Having lunch with a direct view of Sugarloaf Mountain feels priceless. Prices were a bit above average, but considering the location, atmosphere, and unforgettable scenery, it was 100% worth it. Highly recommend!

So that's quantity, let's talk about quality. Bottom line, it's a decent burger. Worth being charged insane prices, even as a Carioca myself??? No, not at all. The fries are standard. If you are drunk and want a GOOD greasy fat burger, this is not the place. It will underwhelm and make you sad you spent so much. If you are just in the mood for a nice good old burger to dig into, even sober, this will be a better taste for you but again make you wonder why you spent so much.

Service is relatively fast at least in this location (I tried a different one and it wasn't as good).

I find that it's pretty hard to find good bacon in South America, this one is very crunchy.

Perfect scenario to people watch and enjoy the views. The mini pizzas as I call them were actually yummy BUT I just felt like they didn't taste right out of the overnight hot. I say this only because they were only warm. So they could use a better system to push out food and keep that customer service part high. Especially since this is a popular beach so I know service is always busy. Just some food for thought. The caipirinha was yummy nonetheless and don't get my wrong the food was good BUT I need my meals to be HOT ! Otherwise I'm going to assume you had it sitting out and that's a no go for me.

What kept me coming back was the Bodybuilder Breakfast, packed with chicken breast, egg whites, and fruit. When many breakfast options around town lean heavily toward bread and carbs, it was refreshing to find a protein focused meal that fit my routine. The location is another big plus. It's within walking distance of the beach, several shopping areas, and a large open air market where you can browse everything from fresh seafood and produce to clothing, souvenirs, and household goods. Service can be a little relaxed, but the food is consistent, the atmosphere is friendly, and it's an easy place to start your day before heading out to explore Rio.
