Reviews from Google
This place has many excellent reviews so decided to try it. Unfortunately the food was really below average and most items did not taste good at all. If you are wondering about the halal status. They aren’t. Avoid anything vegetarian stuffed as they use a very bad tasting cabbage. The only thing (non meat) worth getting was cheese esfiha. The place was very dirty with bits of old food everywhere. Service was decent. Overpriced for the quality of food.
Very few foods resist the time passing challenge. Not here! I have been systematically eating here for more than 45 years (OMG I’m getting old) and all the products here don’t change. Not even the owner Mr Arlindo (I have to ask him about his anti aging habits! LOL), The sfihas, kaftas and kebe are absolutely amazing for decades amd counting.
There are 2 locations, one is the smaller original and the other newer and larger with lots of seating, both located on the first floor inside the Galeria Condor shopping center. There are 4 esfihas here, ground beef, cheese, chicken, and veggies. The ground beef esfihas is definitely the best and tastiest. The fruit juice here is also excellent quality not watered down like other places. I love the mango here. My gf loves the soursop (graviola) I enjoyed the Matte tea it’s strong! And the 3 different desserts they offer. I loved everything I ordered. I also enjoyed people watching here. People either sit at the counter or they grab a quick bite standing by the counter. This is clearly a very popular place with the locals with constant lines but it moves very quickly. They accept credit card and cash.
The only place with tasty food that I found nearby. Although the hummus was not perfect, all the other dishes I tried were very tasty. If you can't eat flour food anymore, you should give this place a chance.
Every time I go to Rio, that's my "must go" place. Definitely my favorite esfiha with my favorite mate tea. Don't miss the oportunity to explore the menu too.
