The Boua Kitchen Bar

Cool place, with a good variety of beer. Good burgers, but if I could I would ask more rare. Too much cooked for me. Better ask for a table inside the bar.

The place is fancy and cozy! Nice Bar, two floors and outdoors area with huge screen, perfect for watching sport matches. The drinks, beers, and foods are really tasty and served. The homemade tea and BBq ribs are amazing. Its clean and has restrooms for customers. Prices are fair but it's not cheap (good cost-benefit). Service is ok.

Decentish beer, really bad salmon, but good local dishes. I went here a few times, but I recommend staying away because of the high prices and the terrible service. They aired the super bowl final, but kicked everyone out and shut off the tv 10 min before the end of the game. That's sacrilege. Great way to piss off customers. They don't deserve your patronage, so go to any other bar in the same street.

A nice bar/restaurant, good beers on tap, their Picanha is very good. My wife had a few questions about their menu and they were very friendly in answering them. It's usually very crowded at night so arrive early.

Very bad service, expensive food, expensive beer. Good offer of beers. Must improve staff training once is located in Nelson Mandela street, a focal point of bohemian life of Botafogo neighborhood. Otherwise, higher level of competitors will kill their business.

Great lunch time and happy hour spot in Botafogo. Some of the rotating taps can be a bit dodgy, if unsure, ask for a taste before you fully commit.

Never mind burgers, this place has the best food by far of anywhere I've yet visited on this trip. The cod balls and shrimp risotto with lime were sublime. Highly recommend.

Botafogo's heart is here. The service is what makes this place special. Nothing else is special nor outstandig: standard (and brazilian-cold) beer, std food, and std prices. Perfect to hang out with friends or on a unpretentious Saturday night.
