We ordered two pizzas for delivery and they were really disappointing. They use really weird dough, cheap cheese and the pizzas were saturated in oil. We couldn’t eat them. Definately not recommended if you like Italian style pizzas.

Ambiente pequeno, mas, muito acolhedor. Fomos até o local comer uns salgados. O atendimento das meninas foi muito bom (educadas e de boa conversa). Os salgados tem uma massa muito saborosa, leve e com recheio espetacular (comemos de carne seca, frango com catupiry e calabresa). Com certeza voltaremos para provar as pizzas (o cheiro é delicioso).

O joelho deles é simplesmente o melhor joelho que já comi na minha vida toda. A atendente também é muito maneira!

Pedi uma pizza gigante meia portuguesa meia mussarela. Quando recebi a caixa veio bem leve parecia que não tinha nada dentro. Muito pouco recheio. Pizza ruim. Aliás para um belo apreciador de pizza, horrível. Não recomendo .

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!

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.

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.

Charming old establishment with proper waiters in proper waiter’s uniforms. Very efficient and professional service, everything as expected. The fish was really very good, not a cheap meal, but a memorable one. The house shrimp pasties are certainly good, and a had a few with some beers here last week after the football, but the menu in the restaurant is very good as well. Bobo and Moqueca both good and the prawn and lobster brochette was worth visiting for. This restaurant is nearly as old as me and I imagine will be here serving great food for years to come. Great work, guys! 😎

Sou cliente a mais de 10 anos e sempre fui muito bem tratada. As funcionárias sempre dispostas a ajudar, a Isa que é uma das mais antigas sempre foi uma querida, a Viviane é a que mais me ajuda, sempre que preciso com urgência ela me ajuda🙏🏻 e agora temos também a Victoria que é um amor de menina. Produtos importareis e nacionais, com preços ótimos. Na zona sul do Rio é a melhor loja para se comprar produtos de confeitaria.

Buffet restaurant with an majority of vegan and vegetarian options, but also chicken and salmon and other meat options. Simple place, but food is good! You weigh your good and pay accordingly. Staff if helpful when English is not working. As always with buffet, I ate too much so no room for deserts, but they some cakes to choose from, some of which are vegan.
Johan Böhlin - 6 months ago

Just to confirm all, this isn't a fully vegan place but a place with a lot of vegan options. Having said that, the food is great. Its buffet based system where you pick what you like and charged by weight

Delicious food! Not quite "al dente", but not Chef Bouardee either. I found the toppings enjoyable and they have variety on the menu. Only complaint is for lunch, I struggled to order my food speaking in English. Yet, I returned the same day for dinner only to learn they have an English menu (?!) I had tipped the lunch lady helping me with my English lunch order. Now I feel like I may have gotten scammed. Be advised.

Not bad nor great. Unique idea and pretty seamless to order, but good lacked flavour or texture in truth. If receiving at a proper restaurant, would have been greatly disappointed. Good for a quick stop for food, not the place to look forward to though.

We've gone there many times, it's a mixture of fast food and quality at the same time, all the ingredients seems, tastes and smells new, they got a promotion for 300gr of pasta that is enough for me that eat alot.
Raul Enrique Zeron - 2 years ago

Good decent pasta for (not so) affordable prices. Good if you’re on a budget, a hurry, all-carbs diet and don’t all the annoying noisy people who often goes there. Service is ok. I mean, they do their best given the poor conditions provided by their bosses.

We came here for a late-night pizza slice. As it was a rather famous pizza place we were hoping to find Rio’s best pizza. The slices are rather big. We paid our order at the payment desk (opposite to the bar, left from the main entrance) and then we could get our orders from the bar. We had some take-away slices as the seating area was all packed. The service was super friendly and quick. We had a caprese and a pepperoni/salame slice. The pizza is rather hefty and greasy, not a classical Napoli or Roman style pizza. The crust was filled with cheese as well and in the end it felt like a lot of cheese and bread. We liked the experience and it is great that they have 24h service. For a long night with booze it seems a perfect place to come by afterwards. Enjoy!

The best pizza I had in my life. This place scores down all places in Rio minus one star. They speak English more than any other places, and that is a big plus. Nice small clean toilet. Nice sweets and desserts. Nothing to complain, I truly hope I will be back.

I'm giving this 5 stars only because I know how hard it is to run a business and don't want to harm them but the food was not good at all. I had two slices of pizza and it was probably the worst pizza I've had in my life. It had no tomato sauce on it, WAY too much cheese and the the dough was super soft and had no crunch. Eating it was like eating a big gooey slop. I saw other reviews saying the pizza was great, these reviews are without a doubt fake or they're written by people who have never had a good slice in their life. The staff was nice and it's cool that it's open 24/7 and the table next to me had a plate of meat which looked good but I definitely can't recommend the pizza.

This is a 24x7 place and many party goers will drop-by after partying into the late hours in a Sunday morning. I was there at about 6.30am in a Sunday morning and the crowd was noisy and rowdy but no drunkards around. They have pizzas, burgers and mains for food and a variety of drinks including hot beverages. Food was great in the sense that they are not salty like those few restaurants I been to in São Paulo and Rio over the last few days. Salt was provided in packets when the fries was served. Portion is still big to me. Must try their desserts though I cannot remember the names. Service staff was friendly and helpful though they do not speak much English. A nice place to catch up with friends over pizzas and fries.

The place is very good for the price, sometimes the hot water or the bathroom light did not work, and in terms of security you should not worry about the favela, just be careful. (the area is not pretty at all)
