Ré Restaurante Dona Suzana

While we enjoyed the food, it wasn't the best moqueca we had during the trip, and we believe that the quality has declined due to the rise in popularity following the Netflix Street Food feature. To get there, you need to walk through the neighborhood and follow the signs. This was a truly interesting experience, as there are many other restaurants, bars, and shops alongside people's homes.

don’t waste your time here and go somewhere else! I was in a group of 3 guys and after waiting 30 minutes to take our order (this is typical, didn’t mind the wait), we waited another 45 minutes until we started noticing that other parties that has arrived after us were being served. After waiting a total of ~80 minutes, we decided to pay for our water bottles and leave. When we tried to exit, the owner stopped us and demanded we paid for food that never came?! it was ridiculous! after explaining to her that our food never came, she told us that she can remake our order, but at this point it was sundown and this area is NOT SAFE for foreigners due to its location in the favela. dona susana never even apologized for her accusations nor treatment - only came here because of the netflix recommendation, but deeply regret doing so. DO NOT COME HERE.

Best moqueca in Salvador for sure ! Extremely tasty, fresh ingredients, nice and friendly staff also. Must visit in Salvador. Great views while you enjoy excellent food

Delicious food and spectacular location! The moqueca can actually feed two people and the mixed one three. Best spot to try local fresh fish and enjoy the sea

Crazy way to get there! Thanks to all recommendations online we made and it was absolutely worth it! The best food and spectacular view!

Incredible restaurant. Friendly family atmosphere and easily the best food we've had on the entire trip.

Place is beautiful, service is attentive and sweet. Dona Suzana was by the entrance and was so lovely to us. But I can't lie, the moqueca was really not tasty, it lacked salt, pepper, lime juice, coriander and was too runny, needed more time cooking to reduce a bit and get more taste. Maybe it was just a bad day... Beer was very cold at least.

This place is more than just a restaurant, more than just a nice seaside fish tavern, and more than just Bahia regional food. It is love, a welcome hug and local tradition all wrapped in one. Think locals who live there (Including the adorable Dona Suzana & her Husband), locally caught fish, and the most incredible Moqueca one could hope to try. A fish stew with coriander, onion, garlic, coconut milk & dendé (Palm oil), giving it a nutty, umami and toasted taste. Balanced, light yet full of flavour, with a top quality fish, paired with delicious pirão, farofa, rice, amazing black eyed beans (best in Brazil!), and a lovely calming view of the sea - full of resting boats and excited local kids fishing for fun in their little boat. The grandson of the owner and his friends. It has so much vibe - not the pretentious or overhyped type, but the real. The authentic. This is the real deal, set in a local neighbourhood which is full of street art, bananas, & flowers. Locals who greet you with "Boa tarde" as they see you walking. The service can be a bit slow, but this experience was very special, authentic, and I can't wait to return next time I'm in Salvador to be bed and looked after by Dona Suzana.
