Lasai

Modern Cuisine, Innovative · ★★ Michelin

$$$$

Dining at this restaurant with just 10 seats is like attending a show, but with the best seats in the house! Although it starts out quietly, the kitchen comes to life as the chefs embark on the task in hand, with interesting interaction between chef Rafa Costa e Silva and his guests. The surprise tasting menu begins with a variety of appetisers in which vegetables take centre stage – displayed on a wooden tray illuminated by a spotlight on the counter – and served in different forms and textures. These are organically grown in line with the seasons and are mainly sourced from the chef’s garden

Brota

Vegetarian · Bib

Brota occupies a charming mansion in Botafogo and is surrounded by a well-maintained garden. Inside, the elegant ambience features a contrast between striking red mouldings on the doors and large windows, a wood-inspired decor, an impressive bar, and leafy plants that add a touch of freshness to the setting. The kitchen is run by chef Roberta Ciasca from the renowned Miam Miam. The cuisine here is based around innovative vegan and vegetarian dishes designed for sharing. The menu includes classics such as the superb “brotinha” rice balls filled with tomato, pesto and olives or wasabi cream with

Térèze

Modern Cuisine

$$$

Térèze is the perfect choice if you’re on the lookout for a quiet setting for a romantic supper. It is part of the Santa Teresa Mgalley hotel, a delightful historic property built in 1850 with a sophisticated atmosphere and breathtaking views. The menu is based around a contemporary theme that uses seasonal ingredients, plus a mix of Brazilian and international recipes. Chefs Jérôme Dardillac and Luanna Malheiros conjure up surprising combinations such as octopus with roasted tomatoes, served on a bell pepper coulis, garlic cream, fresh basil, and caper popcorn. After lunch or dinner, why not

Brazilian

$$$

Aprazível is a must for those who love a combination of delicious cuisine and nature. This family-run restaurant is located in hills surrounding the city in the Santa Teresa district, with its narrow winding streets and breathtaking views. Here, chef Ana Castilho conjures up a menu featuring organic and biodynamic ingredients from different regions around Brazil, yet without neglecting either creativity or a delicate touch. We can highly recommend the ceviche in a tucupi sauce with plantain chips, plus the delicious free-range “galinhada caipira” chicken, served with sausage from Minas Gerais,

Lilia

Creative

A few metres from the conical Catedral de São Sebastião building, there is a singular restaurant with an unassuming façade that can easily go unnoticed among Lapa’s historic townhouses. Climbing a long, narrow staircase, you will discover a two‑storey establishment with brick walls that lend an industrial, pared‑back and spacious feel. Here, chef Yan Ramos runs a kitchen marked by his creativity, updated daily according to ingredient availability. At lunchtime, a fixed menu composed of three courses is served, while at dinner there is an eleven‑step tasting menu. Do not miss the unmissable Roa

$$$

The name of this restaurant is a reference to the famous Argentinian tango “A Media Luz”, while the number 348 corresponds to the number of the street where the first of the brand’s ventures opened in Greater São Paulo. It overlooks the Marina da Glória, hence the spectacular views from tables on the terrace, and features several spacious dining rooms and an extensive glass-fronted wine cellar. The culinary focus is of course on Argentina and choice cuts of meats cooked on the grill, including specialities such as ribeye, centre cut ribeye, filet mignon with garlic, chorizo sausage and top sir
