Fresh seafood, large portions, great service, and amazing ocean views! This is a great spot for a nice sit-down dinner! It seems to be in a nice area, with multiple restaurants nearby, outdoor swings/chairs, and sooo many cute cats just hanging out! My one of the best restaurants in Salvador Bahia. Great food, enough space with comfortable seats, very good service, chill Brazilian music and a beautiful marina view all this together creates an amazing atmosphere. I don't understand the high reviews. The tables were chipped, the chairs filthy, the menu tacky, and the restaurant felt unclean. I left. Customers seem to come here for bragging rights. But when I pay top dollar, I'm expecting cleanliness and a certain decor in return. Five stars for the hostess, but this restaurant wasn't it for me.
