Fodor's Review:

Exotic and delicious dishes are served at this restaurant, one of the few places that go beyond traditional African-Brazilian cuisine. Try the Afro menu, a selection of contemporary West African dishes. Service can be slow, but you are well rewarded for the wait. The piripiri (a spicy rice with ginger, coconut milk, and shrimp) is worth the price of R$65 for two.
