Lovely atmosphere - food great BUT we asked for our drinks bill - we had paid for food - we were then offered a brandy (the inference being it was complimentary), we asked again for the bill and found the Brandys were 26 per glass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Avoid this place!
By bill m, 07/10/08
Three seafood meals, seven drinks - R$650 (about $400US). Based on other comparable places in Rio, about 3x what it ought to be. Ridiculous. Unfortunately, this rating system will not let me give Marius zero stars for overall experience or value. I'd give them a negative number if I could.

Tourist Trap & Thieves
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 07/01/08
A cab driver convinced us to go here instead of Porcow, likely due to a kickback. This was the worst restaurant I've ever been to and grossly over priced. The food was mediocre at best, the seafood looked and smelled horribly stale. Largest bill I had the entire trip for such a disappointing trap.
And they had the decency to steal my ...

"Only for tourists"
By Ken, 05/07/08
The salad/hors d'oeuvres/sushi bar offered little variety.
The meat, nearly all roast beef, was gristly. (I spat most of it into napkins.)
On my flight back to the US, my seat-mate, a Carioca, responded to my description of my Marius meal by saying "It's only for tourists now. All the big hotels send them there."

Very unique ambiance that is hard to describe. Ship Galley meets semi precious stone quarry. Ya that ought to confuse you. My wife had the meat lovers delight, I had the seafood.
Think super well prepared fare in salad bar format. Salad means oysters, sushi, olives, etc.
Then main course. Roving staff with cutting boards and knives ...

Try the men's loo too
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 12/14/07
A superb atmosphere. The meat was on the whole succulent and there was no limit on how much you could eat. The waiters were attentive and fun. An experience not to be missed. The bizarre men's loo was an unusual in the extreme. We even showed it to the ladies in our party.

Awesome
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 11/03/07
Marius is located right off the main strip of downtown Rio. The food is outstanding and the view is breathe taking. While I was living in Brazil and had friends and family visiting, I would take them to have dinner at Marius. They fell in love with the decor and left satisfied. Marius isn't just for people who love meat, they had a wonderful assortment of vegetables.

best place ever of all Churrascarias!
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 10/26/07
I have been to MANY Churrascarias and this is by far the best. They have an excellent salad bar as well as the usual meats. They also have excellent sea food, which is not common for all churrascarias. You will especially enjoy the patio!

Taste of delight
By Donnie W, 10/25/07
My trips to Brazil are not complete unless I dine at Marius once or twice during my stay. The arrival experience is outstanding; very friendly staff, decor, food presentation and an outstanding wine list. A day on the beach, shopping and dinner at Marius....You will not find a better restuarant than Marius on the cost line....Obrigado.
