    I came here on the recommendation of the tour guide and when I arrived there was no one there. They…read morehave various dining areas, and I picked a table in the enclosed outside area so I could people watch. They are located right across the Paraguay embassy. This is a very family-friendly place, they have a separate area for the kids to play and dine in. The staff was super welcoming, and despite my limited Portuguese, I was able to communicate mostly in Spanish. Douglas was my server, and he was awesome. He really went out of his way to explain everything on the menu and answered all of my questions. I ordered the traditional lime Caipirinha along with the fried chicken salad. The salad was huge, but I was a bit surprised that the chicken was just chicken nuggets. I got a small side of fried yuca that was really good. For dessert, I went with the fried churros since they made them in house. The churros were delicious, definitely recommend! They have an extensive menu with meats and seafood options. If I had more time in this city, I would return and try out more of the menu. The prices were reasonable considering this is a tourist area.

    Group of 14, exploring Brazil. This was the highlight restaurant of our trip…read more Food was great/awesome/perfection/anything else? Let's just say.. no left overs whatsoever on any plate! There was also a live one man band jiving music we could sing along to. Some oldies rock and pop. We had the most fun here. Not sure I will be back.. 13 hours total flying. 3 stops. But it's a memory to treasure for a lifetime. Cheers to our waiter we nicknames Freaky Zeekie!! Love ya! Great service!!

    This is a charming restaurant that has an Italian country feel. I really liked the decor. It looks…read morelike they took their time to create a beautiful ambiance and really paid attention to the details. They have a number of large tables that can accommodate large groups. There were a number of families dining in along with smaller tables with couples. They have an extensive wine menu, and the food is mostly Italian with a variety of pizzas, meats, and salads. We were a group of 6 and ordered several pizzas, salad, and pasta along with 2 bottles of wine. I was not very hungry, so I only tried a piece of the filet mignon pizza. The pizza was extremely salty. The main reason was that the pieces of filet mignon were very salty and overly seasoned, in addition to the cheese. It just made it even more salty. Everyone else said their food was very good, so this filet mignon pizza was the exception. The service was friendly and attentive, and the prices were reasonable considering this is a tourist area.

    We originally planned to go to Vo Bertila across the street. That restaurant was closed, but we are…read moreso happy we found Vo Luis instead! The food was all delicious, the atmosphere was amazing and so peaceful. The wait staff were all polite and friendly. Prices in general were really good for Foz do Iguaçu, and for Brazil generally. For Italian food of this quality in Brazil, this was a very competitive price. And the menu was very comprehensive, with lots of great options - so many things we wanted to try! There were plenty of vegetarian options and options for lactose-free and gluten-free diets, so something for everyone. We wound up eating at this restaurant twice during our stay in For do Iguaçu. They bring complementary bread to the table right when you sit down, which was delicious and something that isn't too common in Brazil. The first time we tried the calzone de frango. It is supposed to serve four, but it serves two very hungry people just as well, with space for dessert. The desserts are so delicious. The creme brûlée was heavenly. And the apple crumble was just the right balance of sweet and tangy, with perfect homemade ice cream on top. Our second night we ordered three entrees. The pumpkin tortellini (listed on menu as tortellini, but more resembled ravioli in my opinion) was savory and delightful, a mix of flavors that I hadn't seen before. The vegetable gnocchi was pretty good, with species and vegetables that tasted refreshing and not overly intense or rich. Not the best gnocchi I've had in Brazil, but certainly satisfying. The tortellini was a smaller dish, more of a light dinner. The gnocchi was larger, better if you have a bigger appetite. The third entree was a pizza with marguerite on half and frango com catupiry on the other half. The marguerite was lovely, but the frango com catupiry's taste was too strong. We would have preferred a whole pizza marguerite because it was a soft flavor, not too much, perfectly satisfying. The frango was too rich. Overall, we're very happy that we dined at this restaurant twice. If we were in town longer, we definitely would have gone again. If we lived in Foz, this would be a regular place for us to eat. We definitely recommend this restaurant. Whether you are here for a couple of days, or longer, it's worth stopping here for a nice dinner. You won't regret it.
