Mr. Lam - Rio de Janeiro

Mr. Lam is unbelievable! As a fan of Chicken Satay I was excited and curious to try her and was not disappointed! I also order fried rice as a side with not much expectations as it was just to add the main dish, but also that was so delicious! I had to control myself not to eat everything because I saved space for her dessert, and thank God I did that! I had her famous cocada, which looks like a fried egg (can't remember the actual plate name now) and it was spirit blowing! Their drinks are also impressive, but there was one that had a very strong spicy taste, although they had promised that they did not use red pepper... In any case, I had an amazing time and experience with Mr Lam and will definitely go back when I visit Rio!

Beautiful restaurant with unique presentations of the finest food. Excellent!

By far the best restaurant in Rio for service and food. We had a fantastic company dinner there with the menu options, the drinks were very generous and the food kept full for days. The waiters understood good English, the management has set us up with a private area above. The entire experience was 5 stars from beginning to end. Especially the duck loved not to miss.

Positive: The location’s style is beautiful and the waiter are very helpful and know how to treat a customer. The crispy duck salad is super delicious and comes with a nice show for the preparation. The Squab Lettuce as a starter is amazing and super delicious as well. Negative: Unfortunately the cocktails (which are also pricy) are really not good and taste like syrup. The fried rice was a bit too less spiced for my taste and the shrimps en croûte in a sweet sour sauce are okay, but the pasty crust and the sauce are both not very tasty. Résumé: Fancy restaurant and definitely a nice place to take a girl out, but for a really high class restaurant there is still some room for improvement.

Given the price tag I would expect more. It does serve delicious food, but a restaurant that denies blending mango slices for a baby to drink a juice looses respect. Another criticism goes to the meat plate that is supposed to have the best sauce that you will never forget. I was not impress at all. The meat was also overcooked. Noodles taste very good with sea food, but 120 reais for that? What impressed me more was the desert and the fried crispy cabbage. That one does have a seasoning that is completely out of the ordinary.
