What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Boteco Da Matriz is celebrated for its cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and authentic local dishes, particularly the seafood moqueca and Bobo de Camarão. While prices are considered reasonable for Paraty, some reviews mention a desire for more umami or spice. One reviewer reported a negative experience with food poisoning, suggesting caution with fish dishes, although this is an isolated report.
"Good food and good service! Little pricy but no more than all the other places in Paraty it’s definitely one of the best spots we went to but you won’t be disappointed"

"Nice place for local food. We shared the fish stew which was lovely, perhaps missing a little extra umami or hint of spice but fish was really fresh and a generous portion! Shrimp bobo was better than elsewhere I've tried in the town. We also tried some kind of jerky beef starter that we all enjoyed! Definitely give it a try if you want to try some of the local Paraty dishes."
Katie Fletcher
"Great good in a nice environment. I recommend you to try some starters offered at this place, as I didn't see those in other restaurants. I also liked my main dish with prawns, so maybe another dish to consider."

Onde Comer em Paraty (e onde não comer!): 16 Dicas de Restaurantes
Esse bar é meio um restaurante na verdade e fica num rua calma perto da Igreja da Matriz. Serve petiscos, lanches e até pratos de pescados deliciosos. A gente recomenda por lá os drinks com cachaça Gabriela, típica da cidade, o peixe grelhado e os bolinhos de bacalhau.
