We were reluctant to try CT as we heard there is always a long wait, but we decided to go early. Good move! We were there by 7:45 pm and had our pick of seats. It was a lovely night so we had a great table outside. It felt like a sidewalk cafe in Paris. Service was prompt, wine was... More

Place recommended to us by local friends. We visited the restaurant for an informal business dinner and were all really satisfied. The personell arranged a table outside on the terrace and the service was great all through the visit. Great meat dishes but two of our party had fish and that was good too. Not the cheapest place around but... More

This restaurant is the best a must visit when you are in Rio. Food is excellant. Best duck I ever had. Not greasy, very tasty. My husband had the steak which was equally good. The desserts were so so good and not to sweet. They give you more then enough food to eat and they come around continually with side... More

CT stands for Claude Troisgros - he is a self-indulgent french TV chef with a heavy accent that came to Brazil in the 80s and cooked his way to the stars. His latest "resto" is about classic country cooking - french of course - and hence great, simple food. The meats are top end and the "rodizio de acompanhamentos" is... More

My husband discovered this superb little restaurant in Leblon, Rio. It sounded good so we went. We had no idea about the celebrity status of the executive chefs before we went. The restaurant is small and intimate. There is outdoor and indoor seating. We opted for indoor and air conditioning as it was hot and humid in Rio. In a... More

I had the luck to go to this for my last night in Rio, and I was blown away by how amazing it is. The best beef in the whole city, and every single extra was mind blowing. I recommend the T-Bone, Chateaubriand, duck and the Sirloin steaks. Mind blowingly good. The staff are also amazing, welcoming and unpretentious. The... More

Of all of Claude Troisgros restaurants in Rio this is by far my favorite. Love the concept, you order a protean and the side dishes are served “rodizio” style. It´s an all you can eat smorgasbord. I´m crazy about the chayote with cheese gratin … chayote never tasted better. I usually order the tall chateaubriand, always cooked to my liking.... More

Great location, atmosphere, design and fabulous service. Excellent food, meat, vegetables & mousse au chocolat! A wonderful experience.

We had to wait about an hour before we could sit down at a small table, but once our dishes came, we forgot all about that. The meat was wonderful and the veggies just kept on coming! Definitely a must do
