100% recommended. O caranguejo is a great and strange restaurant. Forget instagrammable and boogie places. That’s not it. O caranguejo is about high quality ingredients, amazingly sized portions, and the best you can get in terms of sea food in Copacabana. Has been recommended to me by many locals and I just visited.
It’s located far from the beach, the menu isn’t affordable but the portions can feed 2 to 3.
For someone visiting alone, look no further, and order some bolinho de bacalhau (cod) and a escondidinho de camarão (shrimp thick stew). In my opinion, this hidden and inconspicuous place is worth your visit and all its 5 stars (maybe 4 on atmosphere as discussed).

This restaurant is well known for the locals and is hidden a few blocks from thr main strip. If you LOVE seafood this is the place to GO. They are well known for the “pastel de camarones” its a fried shrimp empanada that its delicious. We order the Lobster Belle Meuniere and feed 3. It was soooo good! Natan and Sousa were our servers and it felt that they wre our personal butler’s. They make sure the wine glasses were top off, re-filled the plate with lobster, potatoes, and garnished them. It was a great experience.

I found the restaurant before I arrived in Rio, and upon arrival it turned out to be right next to our hotel. We ate dinner there every day and every day with a different fish. I ate the best fish of my life here. Everything fresh, aromatic, topped off with wine and a Rio vibe! A great place worth a visit! There is also a bar next to the restaurant where you can eat empanadas to take away. Highly recommended!

Restaurante O Caranguejo was an interesting dining experience. Be prepared to be in the open. As a foreigner, you may stick out like a sore thumb, especially if you dine on the sidewalk. It’s a good place to interact with passersby, if your given mood calls for it. I was approached roughly 6 times during the course of my visit and meal.

The entree, Camarão Médio (shrimp spaghetti), was a bit bland, and I was apparently charged double…I don’t see 310 Reais on the menu for any given item, but hey.

Service was nice. He kept a peculiar constant vigil on my table, as well as shoo away vagrants at the super busy traffic intersection. Careful accepting pop-up pastry offers…everything comes with a price.

Overall, it’s worth trying for a new place to visit just to say you have. Admittedly, I haven’t tried their seafood dishes, so I may go again for it. This time I’ll request seating inside, despite its population density.

if you are not a giant from game of thrones please do not order full plate of shrimps with rice or pasta because the half plate is more than enough for 2 people.

Amazing taste and total value for money.

The BEST Seafood Paella you will ever eat!
The dish was flavourful and moist with an amazing variety of seafood including squid, octopus, muscles, prawns, and 2 crayfish on top. Every bite included rice and seafood.

While it might seem pricy, the portions are generous. The seafood paella is enough food to comfortably feed 4 adults.

On my recent trip to Rio, I read some reviews online about this place. It truly is a hidden gem with fresh seafood and other options. The service is really fast as well. It is a must try in Copacabana beach.

They offer several unique Brazilian plates.
We had their frog. It was tasty. They offer large portions. We ordered a plate that was for 2 people and fed 4. Their price was reasonable for seafood In Copacabana. We highly recommend to try it just once.
