Worst experience in brazil so far(after 2 months in the country). Menu did not at all describe the dishes correctly, service was very slow despite the place not being busy, main dish was meh (though not horrible), but the shrimps were *NOT* fresh or well made, place was noisy all the time. I will not come again.

This place acted outrageously. First having ordered my food I was asked to leave as I was on my own and it was very busy so they wanted to get more people in. This is their fault for only having 4 person tables. The second is they refused to acknowledge the combination deal for the bolinhos and pasteis.

I don't know how this place gets so many 5 star reviews. The only plus for a foreigner is that they had an English menu. Unfortunately, apart from the presence of the menu in English, none of the staff knew this language. Ok, I got used to it in Brazil.. But the food and the service? Failure. The historic center of the city, seating only outside, and chairs such that after 20 minutes you wish you could sit on something else. There were two of us and We only ordered 2 dishes, one per person, and overall the tables were less than 50% occupied - yet the dish was served for one person. The second person didn't get their dish until 15 minutes later when the first person was finishing their meal. If only the dishes were worth the wait, but no! We ordered Pirarucu fish - fried in one dish, in stew in the other. In both versions, the fish was dried to piece and without taste at all. It must have been frozen for a long time. It was absolutely not fresh fish, which I have already eaten in other places. I have no idea if they serve us such bad quality fish because they saw 'tourists' in us, or this is normal every day quality fish. I do NOT recommend.

This restaurant surprised me with its food and service! Right off the bat a server brings the menus out, in Portuguese and English (a big plus), asks if I'd like to drink something (because in Manaus is very hot and over 93% humidity), then promptly asks if this is my first time, and since I answered yes, it was brought caldinho de tambaqui (tambaqui fish broth) with spices and not spicy at all but very tasty and packed with flavor. I ordered grilled tambaqui fish for one, it came with baião de dois (Brazilian dirty rice with beans), farofa (roasted manioc flour), and pico de Gallo. This has been the best-grilled fish I ever had, I could taste the burnt fish skin which tasted much better than grilled chicken skin. If you happen to be in the Amazon region, please try grilled tambaqui and pirarucu fish and you'll thank me later. Oh! When I asked for chili, the server came up with fresh chilies and a small bottle with olive oil, and tucupi in it. He then asked how spicy I wanted, muddled the chilies, and mixed them with olive oil, tucupi, and salt, and bam! Despite Manaus' hot and humid I opeted to sit outside on the balcony, to my great surprise, it didn't bothered me at all because service was great and kept me hidrated and the view of the opera house was grand.

Tambaqui was fantastic, one of the best meals I’ve had in Brazil. Truly incredible!

You can tell the chef takes great pride in the food here prepares. It was amazing and served beautifully. Perfect location, had some wonderful music upstairs. Price was higher than street food or other restaurants, but it's worth it.

If you want traditional Amazonian food this the place to come! Amazing dishes like the pirarucu rolls or their signature dish Tambaqui, which is full of flavour and hardly any bones. A real treat of a place, price is still very affordable for foreigners!

The food was really great, exactly the experience we were looking for. Drinks, fish stew, banana rolls - all really really good. They also had ridiculously good looking, but not very well synchronized dancers. The only bad thing is that the performance (which was very loud - making conversation difficult - and not very good in terms of artistic/cultural value) is added to the cost of the food. You have to pay for the show, no matter if you want it or not.

An amazing meal. Food was delicious. Service was excellent. Who doesn’t love eating in an alley. We got a lot food and ate it all. I thought they made a mistake on the bill. This food would be amazing at any price.

I can promise you, if you wanna try best fishes around Manaus, this is the place. The only downside is: the staff doesn’t speak english at all. But it’s common in most places in Brazil. (they also have other meats)

Let me tell you…… This restaurant is located in a very cool and very alternative area. You have everything, yummy cocktails, music, good service and above all delicious food to enjoy, we loved it, we started with small bites and finished the night with a whole fish cooked in opened fire, the lovely Smokey flavours permeated the the air while it coming to our table, the rice and vinaigrette were out of this world. Thank you for this delicious dinner!!!!

Really nice food, great location directly at Teatro Amazonas, the place in front of the theatre/restaurant is full of life in the evening and the staff is lovely. Could handle everthing with them although we don't speak portugese. If one is willing, eventhing can be managed with a smile. Thanks!

I dined at Tambaqui de Banda twice, once for lunch and again for dinner on a Friday. Both times we were seated prompted and food was delivered quickly, hot and fresh. We had their famous grilled Tambaqui (local Amazonian vegetarian piranha), Pirarucu (giant freshwater fish), Pacu (related to Tambaqui/Piranha), Tacaca soup (shrimp and tucupi), and their garlic shrimp. Everything was phenomenal and very tasty. If you're in Manaus this is a must-visit restaurant. It is conveniently located in the Centro district adjacent to the historical opera house. The restaurant also provided dancing and live music as entertainment. Area is safe with local families and tourists having a good time.

This is a great option to have a beer, finger food, or an entire tambaqui for two to three people. The Teatro Amazonas is your view. The service is ok. If the day is warm (which is probably the rule in Manaus) go with light clothes as the tables outside can get quite warm. They have fans to alleviate the heat a bit, thought.

I recommend the famous Tambaqui, really nice grilled

Good fish. Some of the night fishes looked great but are for more people to share. Good location just outside of the theatre.

Decent food. Draft beer at happy hour prices (5.5R$)was definitely good!

(Translated by Google) 100% service (Original) Atede mento 100%

Beautiful Ambient to have dinner outdoor. Facing the Theater and Square. Good service. Good taste.

Appetizer was great. Salads were small and expensive. Shrimps were excellent but only 6 pieces of it. Fish was over-salted.

Excellent fish. I had the tambaqui. Opens at 12 noon only. Good service.

The Grilled Fish is amazing. Skip everything else because it can't compare to the Fish. Its the 1st thing on the menu.

This Tambaqui is the best fish in the world. I really appreciate it.

Very good place to eat for a fair price

Nice location for drinks and decent enough food (the choice is good but some of the items are hit and miss), quiet area with some nice views and people watching. However the service is not fast at all so not great if you want rapid food. At sunset this place gets pretty busy, and is a nice place to cool down with a caipirinha, or 5... Hic...

(Translated by Google) Attendance note 1,000. The food very well seasoned the amount is ideal. I've been living in Manaus for two years and I never visited the restaurant because I thought it was for tourists, with high prices. I was impressed with the quality and the good price. As we are still in lock down, we buy for travel. I am completely satisfied. I highly recommend it! (Original) Atendimento nota 1.000. A comida muito bem temperada a quantidade é ideal.

Como ainda estamos em lock down, compramos para viagem. Estou completamente satisfeito. Recomendo com muito empenho!

(Translated by Google) I'm very disappointed! I never buy anything at this restaurant again. I made a purchase through Ifood with delivery scheduled for 14:47 delayed more than 1 hour and a half no one answered or answered me to tell me what was going on. Around 17:00 they canceled my purchase. I had 2 children waiting for lunch. Nobody gave me an answer. They kept me waiting. Ridiculous! I don't buy Tambaqui de Banda anymore! No consideration for the customer. (Original) Estou muito decepcionada! Nunca mais compro nada nesse restaurante. Fiz uma compra pelo Ifood com previsão de entrega para 14:47 atrasou mais de 1hora e meia ninguém me atendia ou me respondia para me dizer o que estava acontecendo. Perto das 17:00 cancelaram a minha compra. Eu tinha 2 crianças esperando o almoço. Ninguém me deu uma resposta. Me deixaram esperando. Ridículo! Não compro mais do Tambaqui de Banda! Nenhuma consideração com cliente.

(Translated by Google) The tambaqui was great, the place offers a very attractive regional variety. However, in the middle of a pandemic and with only the option of dellivery, we ordered a drink to wait for our lunch to be ready and said that it could not be taken to the chairs where we were. However, another group of people was at the side waiting for food and were served where they were. In addition, we asked for water that was not served and we had to show the receipt to reaffirm that we bought the water. Well, we don't know what happened, but it was very unpleasant and left something to be desired in the service. (Original) O tambaqui estava otimo, o local oferece uma variedade regional bem atrativa. Contudo, em plena pandemia e apenas com a opção de dellivery, solicitamos uma bebida para esperar nosso almoço ficar pronto e falaram que não poderia ser levado ate as cadeiras onde estávamos. Entretanto, outro grupo de pessoas estava ao lado esperando comida e foram servidos onde estavam. Alem disso, pedimos uma água que não foi servida e tivemos que mostrar o recibo pra reafirmar que compramos a água. Bom, não sabemos o que houve, mas foi algo bem desagradável e que deixou a desejar no atendimento.
