I've been staying in Florianópolis for over a month now (from New York) and Mar Massas is BY FAR…read morethe best meal I've had (twice now... I couldn't resist). I recognise the place is not cheap (over 1000 Reis for two, both times), however I think it is more than worth it for such incredible food, expansive wine list, delightful ambiance, and welcoming hosts. Personally, coming from NYC the prices seemed an absolute steal for the quality, but I understand Mar Massas is an outlier in the area in terms of cost (and quality). The food is absolutely to die for. I highly recommend the Octopus (Polpo Oro) starter - one of the best preparations I've ever had - and give one of the bruschetta's a shot, you can't go wrong. The pastas are excellent, frankly some of the best I've had outside of Italy. I had the Spaghetti Montechiaro (both times), with two steak filet medallions, perfectly cooked to my taste topped with melted burata (it simply does not get better than that), while my girlfriend had one of the seafood pastas the first time, and the Tagliatelle do Tio Blasco the second - which was probably the best dish we've had there thus far. To top things off Mar Massas has one of the more extensive wine lists I've ever seen, with a superb and diverse collection including some true rarities. Most shocking, to me, was the discovery that the lovely host, Ana Rita, is both co-owner and one of the chefs. Our first visit she was performing all three roles, with the aide of only one waiter - truly incredible! I can't speak highly enough of this place: If you're in Floripa and want to experience the best food the island has to offer, you must make the trip. You won't regret it.

Well why not, is my current view. I can't confirm that it is actually the very best, but it's right up there amongst some of the best I've had anywhere. My only beef isn't about the beef at all, but rather the bun, which though crispy and delicious, falls apart too easily. The fries were perfectly crispy outside and soft in the middle. And the happy hour till 8pm gives 50% off drinks and a bit off of food.

The buffet is ok but could be so much better, many things missing including but not limited to some nice salsas. The meat is good and keeps coming until you tell then to stop. It is a good place to try different cuts and the meat is generally of good quality and well seasoned.
