Mr. Ôpi, Rio de Janeiro

Well-attended restaurant located in an old house, Mr. Ôpi excels for the creativity of its menu, freshness of the ingredients and novelty of its approach. The customer may be surprised by typical baianas offering their delicacies at the restaurant's entrance. Right at the entrance, you will also find a coffee bar with a few tables, the daily menu written on glass plaques hanging on wall and a courteous checkroom service. Two parallel counters offer the daily specials: different salads, hot and cold dishes, mousses, quiches, desserts and beverages. The place is ample (410 seats), but it usually gets crowded at lunchtime.
