The Miso soup was the worst. I've tasted anywhere in the world. The service was terrible. The girls…read morewere watching a soap opera. The only thing good was the yakisoba, but I would never go back here again sorry that's just my opinion.

How did we end up here: we planed to have lunch at Emile. Google shows it opens 24/7 but when we…read moregot there at 2:50 - spent too much time at the top - Sugarloaf and Praia Vermelha. They said come back at 7. So we walked toward south a few steps and saw a Spanish and Chinese restaurants. We picked the Spanish, oh how I would love to have paella. But the young maid said to me in a low voice: "just you know this is a Spanish, the Chinese is next door." So here we're, the unwanted guests -:) The location is excellent, on the second floor, looking out to the Copacabana Beach. A silver of Hotel Emile can be spotted from the windows. The decor is 1972, the year they started in business. The service is good, other than messed up order - my best guess is language barrier - me not speaking Portuguese. Does Irene speak anything at all? Not really We've pickled cucumbers, mapo tofu 麻婆豆腐and eggs with tomato 番茄炒鸡蛋. They totally forgot the cucumber and eggs tomatoes became eggs and ham. Their food is so much better than Canton. And this is the only meal that we finished everything, a small feast. They're kind enough to charge our phone - thank you.

so yummy in my tummy i love chinese food in rio this spot was fire and i would go there againread more

Ok, Mr Lam....you are back in good standing with me. I must have gotten them on an off night last…read moreyear but tonight's dinner was the Mr Lam I had enjoyed and been accustomed to in the past. Enjoyed the Frango Nazar which had an exceptional sauce served with bell peppers, onions and black pepper. Truly a delightful dish that I enjoyed with the shrimp fried rice and a Stella Artois (odd they do not offer any Chinese beer). Nice ambiance and reasonably priced considering the high quality (not to be confused with a cheap takeout restaurant). One of the best Chinese meals I've had in Brazil or Miami.

Went in with high expectations given the Michelin recognition, and unfortunately left underwhelmed…read more We ordered the president shrimp, crispy beef, duck spring rolls, emperor prawns, and fried rice -- and across the board, the execution felt off. Nearly everything was fried, and the dishes mostly differentiated themselves by sauce alone rather than technique. The sauces themselves tasted surprisingly flat, almost cafeteria-grade, which isn't what I'd expect at this level. To be fair, it's possible we caught them on an off night -- every kitchen has one. And credit where it's due: the service was attentive and the ambience was lovely, which kept the evening from being a total loss. But at these prices, I'd expect the food itself to be the highlight, not just the room and the staff. This was our first time feeling let down at a Michelin-listed restaurant. We may give it another shot down the line to see if it was a fluke, but for now, hard to recommend based on this visit.

I hate to report that in my opinion, this place was not great. The place is nice and looks like an…read moreauthentic Chinese restaurant. The food was not good.... At all. There was not one thing I enjoyed. We order a lot of different dishes and some were too salty or lacked flavor. The service was okay. It was hard to communicate with our service due to language barrier (my fault for not knowing Portuguese). I could tell our server was getting frustrated, even when I tried broken Portuguese. I wish I could give it more star but it would not be an honest review.

Been wanting Chinese food all week so dropped in for a snack around 7pm as we had a formal dinner…read moreat 9. The food was familiar yet different. We ordered a bowl of noodles and were surprised that the noodles were curly ramen noodles rather than the expected straight long noodles. The soup base also was not what we were expecting. The thing that really annoyed me was that I wanted to pay with a Master Card, and the waitress insisted they only accept Visa. We ended up paying cash and got out of there quickly. we won't be back.
