The place is small but so homely and they have a great choice of soups, salads and sandwiches everyday. That being said, this place is one of the few places in Rio where I had a good cappuccino. Two thumbs up!

Desde então, por um tempo ficou funcionando apenas como o famoso "cachorro quente de um real" da Voluntarios da Pátria. Isso lá pra 2009, e mantém até hoje o mesmo preço. Tempos depois, abriram novamente um bar no local, o atual Durango's, nome que só veio recentemente em 2014. Apesar de realmente oferecer cerveja mais barata, nacional ou importada, a falta de calçada para colocar as mesas e os banheiros sujos não compensam pelo preço. Nem mesmo as mesas no andar superior do bar são melhores. Recomendo apenas para um esquenta barato antes da balada ou para ir ao cachorro quente pós balada sem gastar muito dinheiro.

A longtime establishment, you are greated by white coated waiters and seated a cloth covered tables, an upscale experience. The sardines were excellent. Being fresh prepared, they do not have the same oily/fishiness that many Americans expect. I can't say enough for the garlic butter sauce the fish was prepared in. Definitely one you want to savor. Presentation of the food is supurb, they pull the meat straight from the display, cook it and then bring it back to your table. I didn't get any but the prawns are huge, order sparingly. If there is a downside, they are one of the more expensive places I ate in Rio. However, you get the full dining experience here and it is much more affordable than the states.
