The menu is diverse and caters to different tastes. Stand out dishes: I enjoyed the lavender lemonade. Seitan baits with korean sauce had perfect crunch and it was my first time trying out seitan. Tofu with sesame crust with black rice. It was my first time having black rice but it paired really well with smoky tofu. The texture was great! Compared to the above dishes, i felt aromatic Burmese rice didn't stand out as much. Same with the batata rustica. These classic dishes were good however the menu has so many other interesting choices that might be fun to explore and taste great!

At the second floor of a very famous hotel in a glamorous neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro, this…read morerestaurant is a compulsory stop for residents and visitors. 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.

The food is wonderful. The filler mignon was perfectly cooked. The gnocchi was perfectly cooked. Every sauce was decadent. Even the seemingly simple falafel and humus plate was nearly next level. You'd be hard pressed to find food this good at this price. The drinks are also good, but there needs to be coordination in flavor between the kitchen and bar. The drinks and food don't compliment one another, but individually they're great. If they can bridge the gap they're a next level establishment. Until then they're "only" great. Service staff is attentive and helpful. They do speak English and accept credit card. You don't need reservations if you arrive as they open or shortly after.

Fuimos en familia porque siempre buscamos un buen sitio donde comer comida española en Río. El…read morerestaurante tiene buen ambiente y está ubicado en una casa antigua de estilo tradicional del barrio. Pedimos una sangría de cava que estaba buenísima y dos paellas. Como las paellas tardan en hacerse pedimos unas "tapas" (que eran más como pequeños entrantes). Empezamos con típicos "Gazpachos andaluzes". No estaban malos, pero no eran gazpachos, sino salmorejos. Los pas amb tomàquet eran en realidad algo más parecido con bruschettas italianas que con el tradicional pan catalán. Como al terminar nos dijeron que todavía tardarían 20 minutos en preparar las paellas pedimos unos calamares a la plancha. Estaban ricos y la salsa de aceite verde es muy buena. Después de una gran espera, llegaron las paellas que no eran paellas, sino risottos con el arroz pasado. Realmente muy decepcionante. Los postres fueran: dos cremas catalanas que eran una papilla gorda amarilla (estas sí estaban malas), una tarta de Santiago que era un pastel común, seco y muy malo y dos mousses de chocolate que son el postre más genérico que puedes imaginar. Al pedir la cuenta tuvimos otra sorpresa desagradable: las paellas, que constan en la carta como "para dos personas" se cobran individualmente. Es decir, el precio en la carta es 50 reales, pero en realidad cada paella cuesta 100. La comida no es mala, pero es demasiado cara para lo que es y no se parece en nada a la típica comida española. No merece la pena.
