What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Búzios is celebrated for its incredibly fresh seafood and the unique experience of cooking steak on hot stones at the table. While many praise the quality of dishes like shrimp curry and fish soup, and appreciate the extensive wine selection, some diners have noted occasional slow service and inconsistent English proficiency from staff. The atmosphere is generally welcoming, though some find it a bit formal, and minor service issues can arise.
"I went to this restaurant many years ago, after many years I can visit it and it doesn't disappoint, the food was excellent. shrimp curry was delicious. There is a huge variety of seafood and fish."
Hugo Moreira
"1. The service is rude and doesn’t speak proper English even tho they present as they do
2. The food was somewhat okay…octopus was covered in oil so you could taste oil much more than the actual octopus, grouper was too salty, but potatoes were good and the oysters were quite good too.
3. They brought starters without even asking - this is rude. We then said we don’t need them.
4. We asked for grouper and salad and the waiter brought fish with salad and potatoes which we didn’t order..
5. Too long until came to take the order even tho the waiters were casually walking around.. without even looking at us.
have no clue what are those good reviews, probably they are nice to you if you are local only. Do not recommend this place."
Alona Ostrenska
"Very fresh seafood and great steak combined with an excellent selection of wines and first-class service. Also, the deserts were just amazing!
They showed a lot of care for my son and did even let him hold some of the life lobsters.
Thanks for a great evening!"

It’s not the most affordable option in the area, but it indeed serves very good quality food.
