Will dream of this place for years to come

Maybe my favorite meal I had in Rio! The staff were SO kind and spoke a bit of English. Food was abundant and delicious. The restaurant is a little off the beaten path from my perspective as a tourist but I’ve found the best vegan spots are in the weirdest places ☺️ Would definitely recommend stopping here! Even my omnivorous picky family loved it and had full plates.

A vegan option in Downtown Rio

Good food. Self Service. The day they have Bahian food (if I'm not mistaken it's on the last Tuesday or Wednesday of the month, something like that) is spectacular. All the dishes at lunch are vegan. The service is good, especially after you go to the restaurant more often. The price is not that expensive.

Boa comida. Comida no quilo. O dia que tem comida baiana (se não me engano é na última terça ou quarta feita do mês, algo assim) é espetacular. Todos os pratos no almoço são veganos. O atendimento é bom, e vai melhorando à medida que você vai frequentando o restaurante com mais frequência. O preço não é tão caro.

The guy drinks a lot of Brahma! Every day I went this year, he has three or four empty cans at his desk by 2pm. He seems rather sad. Maybe someone who speaks Portuguese could see if he's OK.

Bom e barrato!

Visitei várias vezes pois não fica tão longe da estação de barcas para Niterói. É um buffet bastante batato. A comida é muito variada, e de forma geral, boa. Gostei particularmente do gratinado de milho, dos crepes, da quiche, da comida baiana e da torta de limão.

Variedade

Buffet a quilo com ampla variedade. Fiquei satisfeita com a comida, com o preço justo e com a boa estrutura do salão (local com aparência higiênica e ar-condicionado que funciona bem no verão).
Comprei um pão caseiro que conquistou pela textura muito fofinha.

É possível pedir um prato montado com preço fixo pelo app do ifood.

Buffet por kilo todo vegano!

Uma delícia de restaurante bem no centro da cidade. Todas as quartas feiras ele fazem um menu especial de alguma culinária diferente (japonesa, baiana…). Tudo vegano e o preço é ok para a cidade. Quando fui estava 69 reais o kilo. Tem sobremesas também bem gostosas! Vale a visita!

Best kilo restaurant

This is hands down my favourite kilo restaurant we’ve been too whilst in Brazil. An abundance of choice, both salads and hot food, some dishes were perhaps slightly over salted but all in all would rate. Great sweet options too.

The place was very clean including the bathrooms and there were no flies around the food which is always a bonus.

Bonus was that there was aircon too which is much needed when escaping the Rio heat.

Pros: Lots of choice, Taste good.

Excelente buffet

El buffet es muy variable, no puedes probar todo. Todo es vegano!
Por casi 500 gr pagué 32 reais. Um buen precio. Me gustó todo. También tienen chutney y una salsa picante para completar. El café es gratis y puedes elegir entre varios postres.

Pros: La variedad , Salsa picante, Relación precio/ calidad

Cons: Postres están en empaques de plástico

Best buffet in Rio

STOP PRESS: it's now fully vegan! Well, it's not really stop press - it's been fully vegan since they replaced the honey in the dressings with molasses four years ago. Confirmed with the owner via the WhatsApp link on their website.

I've been coming here for 15 years whenever I visit Rio. Here's my first review from 2008:

"I visited five of Rio's Happycow-listed buffets during my recent stay in the city, and this was the best of the lot. Fully vegetarian, probably fully vegan, with a good variety of tasty items at a decent price."

Fifteen years later, I've been seven times in two weeks, and it's still very good. Unusual items like seitan and curried cauliflower, and with the usual staples and excellent salads too - everything always delicious. There's a day-by-day menu published on their website each week if there's something specific you wanted. Don't worry if the menu says fish - it's vegan tofu and seaweed not the real thing.

It's open weekday lunchtimes (except holidays) and at these times it's not dangerous at all - it's in the middle of a busy shopping area which is perfectly safe during shopping hours. It's a skip and a jump from Tiradentes tram stop and still an easy walk from Saara/Presidente Vargas metro.

Vegan buffet

The day we went everything there was vegan. The staff was very friendly and there were a lot of food choices. It tasted fresh and there were some really creative salads and sauces to choose from. You pay by weight of your plate.

Localizado no meio do Saara no centro do Rio de Janeiro, oferece uma boa opção de comida vegetariana por peso. Comida caseira, sem muita complexidade de sabor.

Cons: Não descreve pratos (sem glúten; vegano)

Tudo é totalmente vegano desde 2019. O site especifica o que é sem glúten - mais de 95% é.

Le repas était bon. Il y avait un plat avec de seitan que j'ai apprécié. Je vous conseille d'aller au 1er étage, la salle est plus sympa.
