Comida muito boa num ambiente bem decorado, porém tem que ter muita paciência com o atendimento que é muito moroso ... é para frequentar sem pressa ...

Highly Recommend! The wait staff have a performance, with a musical number during dinner; Definitely a fun place for a birthday/outing with friends! Food& Happy hour Promos are different each day of the week, worth keeping up with social media. They have traditional Moqueca Capixaba sets, Crabs and mostly seafood delights 🦀

Very good family restaurant, specialized in sea food. Huge kids area, where children from all age can play under guard. Food is very good, we had Pastel variation and different main plates to share. Very big portions. Service is good and attentive.

This restaurant is great, it's a chain, but a cool experience. The moqueca was delicious, and the graviola and maracujá batidinhas were very good. I ordered the Morena capibaixa, also very good
