The dining room&#39;s got plenty of space, not one of those cramped places where you&#39;re bumping elbows. AC was cranking, which made it real easy to sit back and take my time with lunch. Nothing fancy, but comfortable enough that I didn&#39;t feel rushed. Solid spot if you just wanna eat without the noise.

Nice DJ sets the vibe at night. Good spot for a drink with the sea view. Just gets a bit hot in the uncovered part during the day.

The pizza was solid &mdash; thin crust, good ingredients. Got it on the daily promo, so the price felt right. Place had a nice vibe too.

Came in on a quiet Friday, got a table right away. Had the regional plate with sun-dried beef, rice, beans, and cassava. Beef was a bit tough but the flavor was solid. The cashew juice on the side was a good call. Fair price for what you get.

The vintage decor caught my eye right away, really cozy vibe. We got the three-person platter and honestly, portions felt a bit tight for three people. Price is steep, but the atmosphere makes up for it.

The sun-dried beef here is legit, best I&#39;ve had in Natal. Price is a bit steep but the quality shows. Worth it if you&#39;re craving that.

The vibe is what got me&mdash;artsy, full of books and little exhibitions. Prices are all over the place, but the service makes up for it. Just watch your step walking there after dark, the street lighting is pretty bad. I&#39;d go back for the atmosphere alone, just not on foot at night.

Decent spot for a quick lunch. Buffet had a good mix of salads and BBQ, plus desserts. Pay per kilo, so it adds up if you load your plate. A bit pricey but the place is spacious and comfortable. Fine for a regular stop when you&#39;re hungry and in a hurry.

The place has a really cool vibe&mdash;art on the walls, good music playing. We ordered a few mains and they were decent, nicely plated and flavorful. A couple of them came out a bit inconsistent though, one was better than the other. Still, pretty good for a casual dinner out.

The burger was seriously good &mdash; juicy and well-seasoned, the bun held it all together nicely. Got a hot roll too, pretty solid. Outdoor seating made it a chill spot.

Came for the buffet, left impressed. Chef actually walked me through every dish to check for my food intolerance, that was a nice touch. Vegan options were solid, not just a sad salad bowl. Beachfront spot, music playing, decent price for what you get. Only thing, it got a bit busy around 7pm.

Stopped by for pizza with some friends. Crust was decent, toppings fresh enough. Service was actually pretty quick for a busy night. Place gets loud but that&#39;s kinda expected. Fine if you just want a casual slice and not overthink it.

The live cello music really set a nice mood in there. I went for the three-course menu and everything tasted fresh, plates came out looking great too. Only thing is service got a bit slow once the place filled up. Still, I&#39;d come back for that starter alone 🎵

The grilled shrimp with that Greek seasoning was solid, and the rapadura pudding hit the spot. I grabbed a caipirinha to go with it, which worked out better than I expected. We stop here each time we&#39;re in Natal, and it&#39;s stayed consistent. Service was fine, nothing to complain about. Maybe a touch busy, but that&#39;s it.

The ribs were huge but honestly kinda dry, mostly bone. Place was packed so I think they pre-grilled them to keep up. Sides were okay. Would&#39;ve rather waited a bit longer for something juicier. That&#39;s about it.

The tasting menu came out nicely paced, and the staff let us take our time between courses. I went with a glass of the house red instead of a cocktail &mdash; paired surprisingly well with the lamb course. Cozy spot, though the tables are a bit close together. Still, a solid choice for a date night.

The wine list is solid and the sommelier actually knows how to pair. Pricey for the area, sure, but that view with a good glass makes it worth it.

Solid spot in Ponta Negra for a quick lunch. R$22 plate plus a R$12 juice pitcher is a fair deal. Cassava was a bit dry though.
