Review: The food is totally delicious, wish I could try everything they sell. But it is excessively expensive and cares just about the health benefits of vegan diet. The place is kinda new agey. The juices are called things like Yellow Chakra or Light of Uranus which is something that I personally dislike. Anyway, it is a great gourmet vegan place. I highly recommend it if you can afford it.

Two specific things I highly recommend:
The white chakra juice
The brownie with banana cream

 
Pros: vegan * fantastic food * organic
Cons: expensive * new agey * hippie chic

Review: But sells chicken, so it isn't a vegan restaurant. Anyway, I heard that the food is really great! But it is so expensive that I never went there.

Review: I and two friends spent a few days in Rio and discovered this wonderful place thanks to Happy Cow on our second day. Situated in close proximity to another vegetarian place, this outdoes it in every respect. Extensive menu, fabulous food presented beautifully. Staff are friendly and helpful even though they spoke limited english when we visited in November 2008. a little pricey compared to other places, bit worth it for the taste! Situated at the back of an arts centre, there's a lively buzz in the evenings. The lasagne was amazing, full of flavour. We loved a dish with cashew cream, shame I can't remember it's name! Make sure you try the delicious refreshing juices - we loved the award winning Sunlight juice. Desserts are delightful in their flavours. The choice of drinks and dishes is impressive. We enjoyed several meals here, all of which are unforgettable. In our opinion, it's the best place for vegetarians/vegans in Rio.
I'd like to see it open for a little longer in the evening, to 10.30pm.

 
Pros: delicious attractive food * good portion sizes * friendly staff
Cons: * *

Cons: low key * *
