Gostei muito daqui, fica dentro de um condomínio de condomínios haha. Os pratos executivos são bem servidos e têm valores acessíveis, ainda mais sendo Barra da Tijuca. Durante à noite, servem pizzas com uma massa bem fininha. (R$ 50). Vale a pena! Pertinho da orla da praia, estávamos nas barracas e caminhamos até lá na hora do almoço.
Ambiente simples sem luxo ou requinte. O ar condicionado não estava funcionando. Não tem banheiros próprio, o banheiro é coletivo para o pequeno Centro Comercial, sem comodidade. Os preços são bem honestos, tendo um ou outro item fora da realidade. As pizzas são boas, assim como os omeletes. O filé executivo é muito bom.
Excelente menú. Muy sabrosa la comida y la calidad. Lo recomiendo!
Nice everyday option for food and snacks. Staff is friendly, food is served quickly, the menu has a lot of options and the price is fair, especially considering is convenient location. My favourites are the Açai and the Quase Light.
Confort food at affordable prices at Barra. This restaurant is part of the little cluster of shops in the middle of the residential area. More affordable. Abobrinhas have the Executive menu (lunch menu). Good coffee and delicious smoothies. The plates comes with a variety of side dishes, but they can accommodate the mix match if you ask. It tends to delay a bit when busy, try to wait or they might bring double orders of you ask another bar girl. Free WiFi (just ask as sometimes not turned on). I don't remember seeing alcoholic drinks, only soft drinks and juices, but worth asking. Meals around the R$25-45 bracket, much cheaper than the kiosks at the seafront or the cluster of posh restaurants, also by the sea. They do takeaway, just ask when ordering.
Delicious food and friendly staff. 100% recommended .
This was a very nice surprise! A large menu and good food. Not overpriced. The staff was so nice!! I was burning up in the sun. Before I had said anything they asked if I wanted to move into the shade.
Cute little restaurant with friendly staff. Food delicious and great price
