Love having breakfast here! It’s about 91 Reais per person, buffet all you can eat with great selection of Brazilian food, breads, fruits, juices coffee yoghurt, and sweets. They also make tapioca and omelets as you wish on the spot! Beautiful view of rio and birds come to visit if you give them bread :)
I didn’t eat there, but sometimes I go for a drink and the view. I take the light rail from downtown all the way to the airport, it’s very easy to get to despite being in an airport.
Eu gostei muito do ambiente. O valor do Buffet é R$129,00 se não me engano + 10%, você pode comer a vontade. O dia que fui era feijoada, eu acho que pelo valor poderá ter mais opção. No buffet. O ambiente e o atendimento é maravilhoso.
World-beating views across to the sugar loaf. Stunning location and delicious drinks. Great for a sundowner cocktail. Lovely staff and decor. Highly highly recommended.
Wonderful! Fantastic! Outstanding! M a r a v i l h o s o !
Fantastic view of Rio de Janeiro and a excellent food and service!
Suco de laranja delicioso!!! (hoje em dia é difícil achar um bom) Que ambiente bom. A comida estava muito boa e o gnocchi super no ponto. Vale a pena experimentar essas croquetes também!!! Não é um restaurante muito conhecido o que torna tudo melhor, não tem muito barulho e é ótimo pra quem tem sensibilidade neste aspecto. Vista linda e o atendimento foi SURREAL de bom! O adriano é um querido!
We stopped by for a Caipirinha and both the lady in reception and the person that served us were very nice! The delixe Caipirinha is amazing...with sicilian lemon and persian lime and Leblon Cachaça!! Nhaaaami n voto em comida pk não comi!
