L'Atelier du Cuisinier

My new favorite Frenchie downtown. It is NOT expensive for what they serve. Hors-d’œuvre are perfect, and desert is awesome. The main dish is always a surprise, with some hits and misses, in my opinion.

I arrived at this establishment accompanied by a few companions. The staff demonstrated remarkable attention to our needs and provided exceptional customer service. The ambiance and atmosphere of the venue were truly captivating, exuding an intimate and convivial aura. The cuisine served was genuinely authentic, characterized by freshness and delectable flavors. My taste buds are now yearning for further epicurean delights that this establishment undoubtedly possesses. I wholeheartedly endorse it as a highly recommended dining experience.

The food is delicious, spectacular to say the least. You need to make reservations. Menu is about choices of the Chef or you can choose what you want on an assembled course. Price is in par with the place with 2 choices (89 reais + 10% service) or the full Chef Menu for 129 reais + 10% service) drinks excluded. Definitely a nice gourmet experience.

The food is wonderful! It was one of my best meals of all time. It is not cheap but totally worth it. Make sure to make a reservation before you go.

This is absolutelly the best restaurant in downtown Rio, and better very affordable. The 3 course Menu cost less than U$ 25,00. Near the Praça Mauá (2 blocks) subway and VLT station. Unusual for Rio: reservation is usually needed. Don´t miss

The best restaurant in the region, the chef cooks in an open kitchen and is very attentive, the service is very good and the food is delicious and very well served

A little piece of France in downtown Rio. You'll eat great food, have a great service and probably meet the Cheff. Don't miss.

The menues are excellent, would have wished for an a la carte menu for more variety.
