This much-loved establishment is famous for its flawless rendering of Portuguese classics. Elegant, without excessive formalism it is appreciated by the carioca high society and especially by middle-aged couples. The decor is typically Portuguese, with authentic antique furniture and an antiques dealer on the mezzanine.A recommended dish is the cozido, a stew with onions, yams, carrots, pumpkin, cabbage, bananas, and more. The cataplana, a seafood stew with rice, is also marvelous, and the perna de cordeiro (leg of lamb) is the most requested dish on the menu. The wine list impresses even Portuguese gourmands who flock here in droves.
