Great fishes and seafood. My wife and I tried the shrimp mayonnaise salad and it was great! Also, the "bobó de camarão" (stewed shrimp with coconut milk, dende oil and manioc cream) is amazing, and the portions are well sized. The service is very good also. But prepare your credit card. It is not cheap!! More

Bargaço is a local restaurant known for the good quality of their seafood dishes. The ambience is confortable, service ok, prices a little bit overrated for this city. More

Since I don't eat seafood and that's what they specialize in, I chose their salada mista. I thought for R$ 17,00 that it should be a good sized salad with a large variety of vegetables. Not! It was not very large and just some lettuce, tomatoes and palmito. Very disappointd with the salad and the price More

As we had been many times in Bargaço /Salvador (and we love it), we've decided to try the same restaurant in Recife and we also loved it. The only thing is that the restaurant was overcrowded in Wednesday, 1:00 p.m.. So, it's a good advice, to get there before this time, in order to choose a good table. "Casquinho de... More

Despite changing address from seaview to river view, Bargaço restaurant remains the best (quite expensive) option for seafood in Recife, Brazil. Like most of good restaurants it is quite full during Sundays' lunch time. Despite that, I strongly recommend it. More

My partner and I recently returned from a trip to Recife including lunch at Bargaco. This restaurant was recommended to us by a lady we sat next to on the flight down to Brazil. We found out that this is a high-end Brazilian seafood chain restaurant frequented by high-brow Recifites. The only way to reach this restaurant is by car... More
