My friend and I sat outside and ordered sandwiches--what they specialize in. The service was the fasted we received so far. Staff was friendly. I ordered the filet sandwich and a shrimp pastry similar to an empanada. Both were delicious--what stood out was the bread. Definitely check out this little spot if you are in the Copacabana area of Rio!

Service was fast, the drinks kept flowing, and the staff was amazing--they even happily strengthened my husband's drink on request. As an African-American traveler, Brazil can sometimes feel unwelcoming, but the staff here made us feel completely at ease and at home. The next day, our server even recognized us, waved, smiled, and greeted us on the sidewalk. Absolutely wonderful. Highly recommend.

The views and the location could not be beat. You buy the ticket from the counter and then head on inside to take the cable car which takes you up first to Morro de Urca and then Pao de Azuca (Sugarloaf mountain). You literally can choose to spend however much time you want at either spot although i think most people stay at Urca longer because the view is clearer and its more spacious. The first stop lets you take in the beautiful city views and the second stop is literally in the skies so you will see the misty skies and take in the whole city from the top while admiring nature at its best. I also had the best chocolate churro here so that added to the sweetness of the spot. My favorite spot in Rio and i cant wait to go back one day.

They will make this line go thru a 'photo opportunity' and they will present you with prints to buy at the departure point up top. Boarding is a little chaotic, it is high season, so it is very busy, so be prepared to stand in throngs of people to get yourself on the train and up to the top. Once you are up top you have two options you can either climb the 210 steps up to the top or you can take one of three elevators that they monitor. Restrooms are available at the train arrival/departure area. If you take the steps, they're actually done quite nicely so you climb some steps and then you have a bit of a break as you walk around the corner and such. There are also a couple benches throughout and they're actually working on a brand new addition that will have a resting contemplation area so that will be really nice when it's completed. When you get to the top, it is very crowded so bring your patience with you as you try to get the perfect shots because that's what everyone else is trying to do, lol There is a small chapel (in the pedestal) at the top as well and it is apparently a very popular thing to have your child baptized here The views are incredible!!

The caldinho de feijão, essentially a cup of black bean "soup", was served with chicharrones and was so flavorful, I could have had a whole bowl of it. The highlight for me was definitely the empada de palmito, like a mini pot pie of palm hearts, it was so creamy, smooth and the pastry melts in your mouth. Of course can't pass on a caipirinha de maracujá (passion fruit), this one was probably the freshest of the whole trip!
