Restaurante Os Esquilos

The perfect place to end our wonderful day in Tijuca National Park. Great people, good quality food and a tranquile atmosphere. Definitely we recommend this place. Do not miss!

The restaurant itself is a piece of history in Rio. Amazing place, scenery and the construction itself (dated from the 1800s). The food is very well done on a great assortment from the Menu. Atmosphere of the place is charming and perfect for a Getaway here in Rio. Definitely one of the must visit places in Rio. After só many years living here... I finally got discover this place today. Awesome and will surely be back with friends to show them around.

Great place to eat and relax, there isn't internet connectivity there because it's in the middle of forest. Great food, I enjoyed the experience there.

Couldn't get signal to call a taxi and staff didn't let me connect to WiFi.

Good place to eat and drink after hiking at Tijuca.

Great food and service. Reasonably priced. A wonderful setting. Worth seeking out. Lovely owner.

We had lunch here on a Saturday afternoon when they served a delicious classic feijoada (only available on the weekend). The place is beautiful and located in the Tijuca forest. One feels in a time warp, back to the fifties. Wonderful old decor, great music and friendly welcoming staff. We will be back.

The restaurant is a converted plantation house from the 16th century which is located in one of the oldest parks in Rio de Janeiro. The surrounding area is sufficient enough a reason with beautiful waterfalls and rock climbing areas that those things alone are worth the trip but in addition the food was outstanding and the atmosphere very old fashioned with modern and traditional flavors in every dish. Definately recommended for nature lovers and foodies who want to do something in Rio that is not on the normal tourist path.
