Irajá Gastrô - Rio de Janeiro

Amazing food. Wow how amazing and tender was the lobster. And cassava dessert and special drink Gin da Yara was amazing!

Awesome, quaint restaurant in Botafogo. Chef uses simple Brazilian ingredients and enhances them to create unique flavors. Restaurant is small and lively. The chocolate cake for dessert is amazing.

Amazing. Clockwise in picture, Beef Carpaccio, Scallops and Octopus. Perfectly cooked

Place is cozy with good food. Prices are a tiny bit high, but worth it. Service is excellent and wine selection is pretty good. It was a great surprise. Worth the visit. More options without lactose would have been a plus.

The quality for the price grants a 5 star for this one. I went to few others that offer menus double the price and there is not a big gap in quality. Therefore, 5! Lets start for the minus. Definitely the complementary bread. It was so tough and hard i asked to change, clearly they got another one, gave a straw with water and oven for few extra minutes and was equally bad. A big shame for this kind of restaurant. But since the rest was great i will give forget this ridiculous event. Consider to pay around 380 reais per person if you go for middle menu and couple of drinks, it is more than enough food for a hungry person. Everything was really delicious only thing that was so so ish was the palmito mille-feuilles. Also they should forget the complimentary cheese donuts stuff... their complementary service is really taking away from the main things... Going back for sure.
