This place is a must visit if you like quality, professional and great tasting food.

We were highly recommended by our Gate1Travel tour guide. Best suggestion.

Location a street behind Windsor Leme hotel and also not far from Hilton hotel as well. – walkable

It is a small, quaint restaurant with not very many tables and very busy! People line up to get in. The service is very professional for a place like this even though in the beginning when being seated, it may not appear.
Food presentation and garnishing is great and our food main items were presented and waited for approval before going to be cooked. Meals are large so don’t be afraid to share the meal.
When it arrived at our table, the waiter were well versed in delivery and presentation. Quality checks were not done but wasn’t necessary.
What was ordered?
Salmon with rice- absolutely the best we have had.
Fried Octopus for appetizer which was also very good.
Seafood Paella which was also very delicious with lots of shrimps and one large shrimp.
Would we come back- Absolutely, and lots of our friends came there as well and had the same experience

Went for dinner here and had octopus and it was lovely. The waiter came to show us the octopus before sending it to the chef to cook. The quality of the octopus was great, thick meaty tentacles. The portions were generous i couldnt finish it all.

Meal came with a bread basket and some lovely chilli oil.

Staff were great and service was good too.

The octopus was amazingly tender. Superb. Seafood Paella was good but didn’t have the crunchy rice base. Service was great with older staff which made you feel well looked after. This is a popular place so best to book

Do make sure you are hungry when you visit. Fabulous restaurant with attentive friendly staff. Used by locals and lucky tourists like myself. Being Scottish I had to try their Haddock Escocesa. It was a tasty plate of food influenced by Cullen skink. Returned the following evening to try steak this was melt in the mouth good. Highly recommended.

We went here based on reviews. Staff were very professional and attentive We found the food did not meet reviews/expectations, sardines larger than other restaurants and full of small bones despite filleting. The octopus was good but the paella was basic, mass produced rice without a good safrita.

These are the places to be cherished whenever you travel. These are the kinds of experiences I will always remember on my travels. A short cab ride from Copacabana we were seated right away despite a bustling crowd. Outside friends laughed and shared hugs and inside wine was flowing and seafood was being prepared. We ordered a bottle of Portuguese red wine and the Valenciana paella. It was delicious and savory with shrimp, pork, sausage, squid and veggies! But on par with food was the service. Old school. Proper etiquette yet not stuffy. Classy, classic male waiters bring out delicious hot food and bottles of wine. This is a must stop. For dessert try the crema do Papaya. A bottle of Portuguese wine, paella for two and dessert for about $79. A wonderful restaurant and great people!

Food: hot bread was served with butter. We ordered a few dishes on New Year’s Day including lobster, steak, mixed seafood rice, some kind of local fish. Took about 45’-1 hour for food to come out. My teenagers got impatience so we did not enjoy the food much. We went in around 12:30 so the restaurant was not busy yet. But the restaurant becomes very busy.
Food was somewhat salty for us. Octopus was not good. Lobster was overcooked in our opinion. Steak was good and large portions.
Wine: red wine did not serve cold.
Service: exceptional by an older gentleman. Very professional and he worked with a passion. We gave him extra tips afterwards. Service charge was added to the bill.
Total bill for lunch: about $170ish for 4 of us. We had a lot of left over to bring back to our hotel. Price was reasonable for food quality.

Good local seafood restaurant with great service.

The salmon in honey sauce was excellent and the rice was also quite interesting. The rest of the food (potatoes, sole fish, and vegetables) was fairly standard and unimpressive.

Given the billing and the presentation of the wait staff (who did an excellent job, by the way!), I was expecting the food to be more outstanding than it was. The pricing is fair and the fact that the restaurant is a Leme local spot is nice though.

I’ll be back!
