Very nice restaurant in a nicely appointed setting. A very large selection of Pastas and an extensive wine list. Not sure what you want? The waiters are happy to recommend both food and drink...and they recommended perfectly.

"A restaurant with such a price tag should definitely be serving masterchef style food or at least present a menu totally out of the ordinary. Nevertheless, Margutta presents a familiar style of food very similar to popular restaurants from Brazil, more especially Rio de Janeiro, such as Degrau, for instance. Servings are very big, quality is definitely there, I cannot say I was unhappy with the food all the times I've been there, what I can say is, for what you pay here you can find very unusual and groundbreaking culinary experiences elsewhere." Above you can find my previous review, which I update with the recommendation of the main course king prawn with champagne sauce. You can choose what you want to eat together with this delicious serving, I chose roasted potatoes. Absolutely delicious. Mind blowing. I also recommend the desert called triads which includes a cheese ice-cream with guava jelly (typical Minas desert called Romeo and Juliet here in Brazil), brigadeiro and tiramisu. It's very tasty. I have uploaded pictures of both suggestions now. Updating my previous review, I find it OK nowadays on the price tag side, since everything has been so expensive here in Rio de Janeiro. Enjoy!

Nice Italian restaurant with a selection of meat, fish and pasta dishes. Delicious tiramisu too! Revisited here after a few years to find not much has changed, the food is still as good as it was. In particular, the Uruguayan lamb ribs with mushroom risotto was absolutely sensational. Well worth every centavo.

An exquisite, delicious, mouth melting lunch with my sister and level 10 years niece, Ana Carolina, a true foody that has an educated pallet. We started with pizza branco which was super thin, crispy pizza dough topped with parmesan cheese. Mozzarella di Milanese, crusted cheese smothered in a light tomato sauce. My sister and I split polenta al funghi and spaghetti ao vongole. The polenta creamy and rich, with a drizzle of truffle oil. We finished with two desserts, tiramisu (very good, all time favorite is at Le Segrete in Rome) and brigadeiro ao chocolate, chocolate truffle in a spoon!! You must go to Margutta for lunch or dinner when in Rio de Janeiro!!
