While the decoration of the restaurant and the songs plaid on the electric piano is very 80ies, the quality of the food is quite good and reasonably priced. When I went there there was no a la carte option, only the buffet. But it offered great choices and also the very nice deserts were included in the flat rate.

Wonderfull local food...but if you are alone be prepared to ask for more food then you will eat! The truth is 80% of the menu is prepared for serving 2 or 3 people so If you are alone you will have to find something in the 20% of the menu or.....waste food!

A smart restaurant in historic Centro, apparently part of a culinary school - chefs and waiters training on you! Very good food - excellent buffet the day we went. And one place that you can actually get a bottle of white wine!

This is a school restaurant that offers different types of Brazilian cuisine everyday. The service is very courteous but one needs to be aware that everyone in the restaurant is in training. Highly recommend for lunches...

Although service is not fast, waiters are courteous (this is a school restaurant) and very good food and fresh vegetables.

We arrived after 1430hrs and the food was already missing and they didnt add to the buffet additional food , so meat and other stuff were missing. might be one of the best options at the centre but if you go for lunch then ensure you dont arrive after 14hrs .

The buffet lunch was very delicious with so many options of starters, main dishes and deserts; the place is very charming and the staff was very sympathetic and efficient. A "must" visit in Old Sao Luis
