The food was amazing, the quality is perfect in terms of test. We order the meat balls with potatoes and they were amazing! The dish with shrimps, octopus and vegetables is highly recommended. The reason I put 4 instead of 5 is because of its price. It was a bit over priced compared to other good restaurants we tried in the area. I highly recommend the place if you are ready to pay for it but it is really a good quality restaurant! If you’re in Barra and don’t come to try this place you’re missing out big time! ✅ Decoration on point, so welcoming, cozy and beautiful 📍 Perfect location, quiet but right next to the busy area by the beach 🥇 Great and friendly service, plus everyone is just so beautiful 💴 Around 32 euro per person, for what we got is very good including drinks, starter and main course 🥘 The food?! We loved everything, literally every single dish served was 10/10. Here is my top picks for you to try: - Moqueca de peixe - vatapá (yuuuuuuuum) - every single side dish that came with the main course A huge thanks to the owner Alberto, you really know your business and coming to the tables to talk after our meals show that you prefer quality over quantity, it’s perfect! Our dear waitress Alanis, thanks for everything, alongside the other staff. Compliments to the chef, the queen in the kitchen made everyone very happy. ✨ I highly recommend it Overall, it was a great experience. The staff was warm, welcoming, and very accommodating, which made us feel right at home. As for the food, it was just okay. We ordered a moqueca and a couple of appetizers. The moqueca was traditional but lacked a bit of flavor and salt for our taste. On the other hand, the appetizers — especially the fried yuca and steak bites — were quite good. A nice spot overall, but the food could use a little more seasoning to really stand out.

Durning my stay in Salvador, we visited this restaurant twice, and both times it was an amazing experience. We had feijoada on the first visiting, was completely perfect, amazing flavours and quality, and the portion pretty decent. On the second I had the cassava leaf stew which was a surprise never had a something like that before, I did become a fan of the dish myself, and my girlfriend had the carne de sol, which was amazing as well, specially the cuscus. The service really amazing, special mention to sr Jorge and his other colleague( don’t remember the name) who serve us on the second time, both really welcoming and helpful people, with a eye for the hospitality, and a passion for what they are doing. Really worth a try
