Stopped by for a late afternoon coffee and ended up grabbing a loaf of their artisanal bread to go. The sweet and savory selection is solid, and the space is roomy enough that you don&#39;t feel rushed. Coffee was good, though I wish they had a better wine list to pair with the pastries. Staff kept it friendly and low-key.

The lighting in here is warm, kinda dim, the kind that makes you want to stay. Had the past&eacute;is and bolinho de feij&atilde;o, both were solid. Live samba and MPB playing, the musician really read the room. Felt like a proper Rio evening without trying too hard. Just wish the music was a touch louder, but honestly, it was a nice vibe.

Food was decent for what we paid. Nothing fancy but the flavors worked. Staff kept it moving, didn&#39;t have to wait around for anything. Place gets busy but they handle it fine. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and hungry.

Nice little spot with good food. I liked that you can pick the buffet or pay by weight, makes it easy depending on how hungry you are. Service was friendly too.

The buffet spread was decent, plenty of options and everything tasted fresh. Owners were friendly too, kept checking if things were stocked. But honestly, for the price we paid, I expected a bit more variety on the hot dishes. It&#39;s fine if you&#39;re really hungry and want to try a little of everything, just don&#39;t expect anything fancy.

The seafood platter for two was generous and tasty, with fresh sides like rice and fries. Service was friendly and efficient, making it a solid choice for a casual meal.

Loved the lobster here &mdash; super fresh and the view from the table was gorgeous. Staff were nice too. Just wish they had more dessert options. 🦞

Service was good and the food tasted fine. Nothing fancy, but you get what you pay for. Portion size was decent for the price, so I left satisfied.

Stopped by for dinner on Avenida Atl&acirc;ntica and honestly wasn&rsquo;t expecting much. Ended up really liking the food &mdash; got a dish that easily fed two of us. Menu&rsquo;s pretty big too. Staff were chill and didn&rsquo;t rush us. Only thing is it got a bit busy later, but fine for a casual meal.

Buffet had good variety, sushi was fresh and not too much rice. Just a heads up, kids under 9 pay adult price. Kinda unexpected but the food made up for it.

The guava cake with cheese here is the one. Sweet and salty in the right way, not too heavy. I grabbed a slice to go and it held up fine. Pastel de goiabada with cheese, that&#39;s what I keep coming back for. Just wish the slice was a bit bigger for the price.

Sushi was fresh, service on point. Got the festival deal and honestly the food looked better than most spots around. Went back for seconds twice 😅 good for the price.

The oysters were fresh and the carabineiro prawns with socarrat really stood out. Cozy spot, good for a solo lunch. Just wish the portions were a bit bigger.

The cheese bread here is homemade and honestly the best I&#39;ve tried. Got a natural juice too, made fresh. Prices are fair for what you get. Solid spot for a quick snack.

Been a regular here for years, mostly for the seafood. The grilled octopus was spot on, and I paired it with a nice glass of Sauvignon Blanc that cut through the garlic butter perfectly. Service was steady, nothing fancy, but they know what they&#39;re doing. Only thing is the place gets loud on weekends, but that&#39;s part of the charm I guess.

The set lunch here is honestly a solid deal. You get an appetizer, a main, and dessert for one fixed price. The plating looks fancier than what you&#39;d expect for that cost. Portion size was decent too, not huge but enough. I left full without feeling ripped off. That&#39;s rare for this area.
