Fantastic Bahian fine-dining. Be sure you come hungry, it’s a long but rewarding multi-course meal. Unusually, each dish was better than the last, and the mains were better than the appetizers (normally appetizers are more interesting and creative). I absolutely loved the goat and the meat dishes. Great job guys. This is a very nice fine dining experience with like 13 dishes of food to try. I like the main dishes the most, particularly the scallops and the sea bass. The service was also attentive but not overwhelming. They have English speaking staff too. The price for the tasting menu is very reasonable given the food and the experience. We finished dinner in 4 hours of tasting! Great experience. Good service with delicious food. We loved everything, including the care of waitress and the approach for each dish and how they were elaborated (both veggie and regular options). It is also kids friendly as our 7 years old kid had a great experience with her dish and could try ours. The only suggestion is try to make the circuits shorter and less waiting time between that “acts”. I think we stayed 3 hours, but 2 hours would have been better. Anyway, we had a great time and will definitely come back when we are in Salvador. - some photos of our favorites.

Wonderful experience with an amazing tasting menu. It definitely deserves its spot on the list of latin americas best restaurants. Great wines as well. We really enjoyed the little treats that came together with the espresso at the end of the journey.

An absolutely amazing dining experience. The thirteen course tasting menu highlighted various regions of Brazil. Each course was well-explained by the server and tasted incredible. Fresh and high-quality ingredients were represented in each course. I don’t eat beef or pork and the beef dishes were substituted with octopus. The price of 320 reales was more than reasonable for an experience of this magnitude.
