Stay outside in the pier where you can enjoy the clear waters under the deck and the magnificent view of the marina. Choose some wine and allow yourself into a gastronomical indulgence.

I was recommended this restaurant as a " special occasion " restaurant and it surpassed my ( usually demanding ) expectations. I made the reservation myself - ie as a non local - and was nevertheless shown to a perfect water-side table on the deck. I ate at 8 ( most locals arrived around 9 ). Lovely combination of a... More

Great atmosphere, very romantic, overlooking the marina. Superb decor and polite and attentive service. On first glance the menu looks reasonable but the restaurant is very clever and bumps up the bill with hidden extras such as cover charges and expensive water. It's a pity because if the charging was honest the restaurant would be first class.

We chose this place as our last diner in Salvador The decor is jaw-dropping gorgeous. It is more like a floating restaurant near the water. At the time we dined, the place was still empty so we were the only people dining by the water. With the sunset behind us, we had our most intimate diner while in town. I... More

The spot itself is worth the journey. You may add some good dining experience. Make sure your reservation is on the deck, to really have the best for the night. The owner also runs a nice restaurant at Camburi beach, in between Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, also with a special location and fair quality food. It should not... More

In a nice setting, this restaurant prides itself serving frozen and microwaved foods, while offering the same menu for the last three years. Boring and unimaginative food creations, not that different from the usual business class servings on your favorite airline.

The place is very beautiful, the service is realy nice, but I was not happy with the food. It was good, but far from wonderful. There are some others contemporary food restaurants with a better food and not so expensive. Amado is a great restaurant for a special petit comitet event with clients or familiars. But to eat great food...... More

Friendly service, perfect timing, wonderful food! And reasonable prices too! The atmosphere is very intimist, even if it is a place where people go to be seen. The amazing view of Bahia de Todos os Santos completes the experience!

Fancy good place to eat contemporary food, with a beautiful view to Bahia de Todos os Santos. Be prepared because it is expensive.
