O Caranguejo

The shrimp pastes here were the best I had eaten in Brazil during my 2.5 months. They were fantastic, with the seafood in New Orleans. This is the only dish in Brazil I recommend. The shrimps and crab pastes and crackles are cheap, although the rest of the menu is super expensive. I would recommend 2-3 pastries and a beer at the counter. The risoles are also good. It is the same filling, depends only on your taste in pastry dish. The crab was also good, but imo not as fantastic as the shrimps. Your house hot sauce is also good. Service is nice and fast. Good atmosphere. In total, a large pastry counter.

Casual place with seafood, where the waiters seem long time employees and know their métier . Sopa Leão Veloso is amazing. Also Casquinhas de siri e caranguejo.

Amazing food. I inly had $BR300 on me and the meal was over $400BR. Was going to go back to the hotel and come back to pay. I was suprosed when they told me theh had Samsung pay. Used my phone and all was well. Great food! Great waiter. Great experiance!

This is the place to go for great Brazilian seafood. It’s not a fancy place but the food is beautifully presented by a super attentive and professional staff. Don’t worry about the language issue, there’s an English menu, and the crew includes Chad from Indiana to give you the inside scoop. Go for the magnificent lobster and the moqueca. Pro tip: portions are huge, one dish is usually enough for two.

They offer several unique Brazilian plates. We had her frog. It was delicious. They offer large portions. We ordered a plate that was for 2 people and fed 4. Your price was reasonable for seafood in Copacabana. We recommend to try it only once.
