The burgers are pretty good, and that's coming from a meat eater! You order a burger based on a menu of toppings but then get to pick what kind of patty you'd like. There are four to pick from with the soy bacon being my favorite over the also good Indian one. When I visited they were out of many items on the menu which isn't a good look but that didn't stop me from getting what I hoped to order. Prices are a steal for what you get. Credit cards accepted and the owner speaks English. I'd visit again but try something else. There are better veggie burgers, but it's still a good choice if you're craving one.

Fantastic experience here! While traveling with my vegetarian coworker, we struggled to find…read morevegetarian options in Rio. A Google search pulled up this restaurant and I am so glad we trusted the reviews. We spoke with the owner, Alexandre, who informed us that he and his business partners are vegans. He gave us some awesome suggestions from the menu, and it turned out to be the best meal we had. As a meat eater, the vegan burgers could give some of my favorite non-veg burger places a run for their money. The fries were shoestring, my favorite kind. Service was fast and great. I will absolutely return on my next trip to Rio!

The food is excellent, the beer is COLD, and the servers are so nice. I give this restaurant my highest review!

I was happily surprised that my waitress spoke English. She was very friendly and gave us their only English menu. My wife and I ordered 2 - 163 angus burgers with fries and coke. The burgers were delicious and the caramelized onions gave it that extra yumminess. The fries tasted great as well. I highly recommend this place! My only complaint is that I wish they served milk shakes.

The not so good... all orders must be placed at the kiosk which is time consuming. At one visit my order was incorrect due to a misrepresentation by an employee. Although they don't change orders, the manager allowed it "this one time". Other than that, all meals were good. The only thing I did not like - it's literally wide open to the street (no doors) and every bum seems to hang out nearby.

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.

Pros: big patty, fresh, someone speaks English Cons: Disappointing, over-salted, soggy…read more Let me explain. This place has a reputation of being the best burger in Brazil because of some associated chef's legacy and three different meats put into their signature patty. It didn't feel that gourmet to me, just a typical pub burger. I made my own burger medium with the signature patty, lettuce, tomato, Brazilian cheese, and pickles on a sweet potato bun. As well as fries. The burger came to me wrapped up in a bag with my fries; I was perplexed to find the bun already soggy, as I ate it in the restaurant a minute after they made it. The toppings were fine, nothing special except the cheese, but the burger was definitely rare and very over-seasoned. I'm not sure if this is a Brazilian thing, the under-doneness, but eating raw meat in a country you aren't from isn't the best idea. However, the fries were done properly-hard to mess those up. The tables had a couple of sauces; a ketchup that tasted like bbq sauce and a sweet chili sauce. Very random. Would I come here again? Most likely not. The price of the burger is a bit high and it just wasn't that memorable.

It was a bit pricier than most other places we ate during our stay and the burger was very underwhelming.
