After eating so much bad overpriced food throughout South America this was a pleasant change. The staff were friendly although not attentive which we have found with most restaurants over here. Make sure you go hungry cause the meals are gigantic!!! Everything is served with rice whether you like it or not!!! We ate here 2 nights, the first night... More

It is a local restaurant, not so fancy, but with great food, large portions and reasonable prices. We enjoyed the chef's fish robalo, with shrimps, squids, potatoes, rice and palm tree hearts. The service was nice and fast.

Huge portions at great prices. This is one of the few places in Paraty old town offering excellent value for money. No surprise that it's always busy and you see other local restaurant owners eating here!
