Esperava bem mais desse restaurante. Sempre que minha mãe está na cidade levo ela em restaurantes bem conceituados do Rio, e esse deixou muito a desejar. Pelo custo dos pratos(numa faixa de R$ 80 a R$ 100) a comida deveria estar impecável e muito bem executada, o que não aconteceu. Nem o ponto do meu filé eles acertaram. Enfim, foram três pratos diferentes na mesa, sendo que nenhum de nós saiu satisfeito muito menos encantado com a culinária. No meu ponto de vista um restaurante que cobra esse preço tem que te entregar uma experiência, e no mínimo, surpreender um pouco, o que não aconteceu. Eu nem voltaria para tentar de novo…

Came here for a drink while waiting for a table at Sushi Leblon. The drinks were tasty maybe a bit on the expensive side but in line with the area. We didn’t try any food so cannot comment on that but I would recommend coming here if you are in the area.

This restaurant is located right next door to the famous Zuka which doesn’t take reservation after 8pm. We decided to try it because we didn’t want to wait and they seated us right away. We got the round table in the front of the restaurant, it was perfect. The service was hors pair. The food was incredible, my coup de coeur was the tuna crudo on chips, OMG!!! We actually ordered 3 times that night! LOL The drinks was fantastic but the bartender was the most non smiley server I have seen. :( The food was exquisite, I will go back! I also liked the white décor of this place. very clean looking. It is also very well air conditioned. The manager treated us like we were superstars.

Esperava mais do Brigite’s. Experimentei um peixe com crostas de batata e risoto de alho poró, que não fizeram jus ao preço(84 reais). O peixe estava sem sal, o risoto razoável. Meu marido comeu uma paleta de cordeiro, que na sua avaliação estava muito boa. Em relação às bebidas, solicitamos duas caipiroskas com vodka nacional(Smirnoff) Estavam ótimas, mas fomos cobrados pela vodka Absolut, pois não trabalham com Smirnoff. Só que não avisaram previamente. Pelo valor que pagamos por 4 caipiroskas, teria sido melhor beber uma garrafa de um bom vinho. Acho que não voltaria lá.

This place had great atmosphere and service. One of my best meals while in Rio! The food was tasty and great cocktails and wine too.

I’ll give it a one star because I have to give a rating. My husband and I went to this restaurant which is next door to Zuka because we didn’t want to wait 45 minutes for a table there. When we were eating our appetizer, a cockroach made its appearance on our booth and almost landed on my husband’s arm. The staff’s reaction was to laugh about the incident. It was a horrific experience, I can’t believe it happened to us in what is supposed to be a nice restaurant. Please go somewhere CLEAN!

Had a very nice pasta here a few times, offers mostly italian food, or a contemporary reinterpretation of it. The interior design is really lovely(I would say European/French bistro) and the prices, of course, very Leblon-y(120 Reais upwards for a dinner with a drink). Very crowded during the weekend.

Very underwhelming performance by what appears to be a gourmet restaurant in the heart of Leblon. First off we show up for our reservation at 815 on time and we wait for our table until 9:00. After being seated and placing our order we have to wait 30 mins before asking for our order of bread to be brought as we are starving. The food was a mixed bag. The burratta appetizer was sublime, very high quality ingredients and flavor pairing. The eggplant parmesan was also a must order item. Soft, creamy, warm and full bodied tomato sauce flavor undertones abound! Those 2 are must orders, please get them if you do come to this place. The steak was terribly underwhelming… small portion and we ordered it medium rare… it was 100% rare. Almost completely pink on the inside. Also devoid of any flavor or seasoning. Like they just put a piece of meat on a grill without giving it any flavor, not very good. The fish of the day was also incredibly disappointing. Needed some lime/lemon or some flavoring in general. Small portion as well and really had a rubbery taste to it. The dessert helped salvage the meal as we ordered the cinnamon ice cream crumble and the crème brûlée. The crème brûlée was average but the crumble was a nice finish to the meal that was very disappointing AND very expensive. Service was average, for the most part and the wait at the beginning was a bit uncalled for especially for a restaurant of this ilk. I wouldn’t stop by here again in RJ; other options in the neighborhood such as Verducci and Sushi Leblon are much better in a similar price range.

Dernier né des créateurs de Zuka et Sushi Leblon(on aura presque tout testé dans la rua Dias Ferreira qui est un marathon culinaire à elle toute seule). Déco super sympa de murs blancs lumineux et carte appétissante. Le marathon culinaire ayant des effets néfastes sur nos cuisses, on s’est contentées d’une salade au chèvre«brulé «qui était bonne bien qu’ encore une fois servie sans pain. Que les Français sont malheureux dans ce pays ! On a vu passer quelques burgers qui avaient l’air fameux. Le couver estt pas mal mais pas très copieux: deux tranches de focaccia en plus et deux olives chacune, ça aurait été un plus. Vrai bémol: il fait un froid polaire même après que le serveur est baissé la clim !
