We booked this restaurant as it seemed to be the best in town for seafood, and we wanted a very nice place to commemorate a wedding. And we couldn’t have chosen better than Coco Bambu! The localization is very nice, near by the lake with view, the restaurant is huge but we stayed on the terrace which size is more... More

We had a very pleasant time here. The venue is lake front and it was a beautiful day so we were able to sit outside. The food was great, the atmosphere was fun and the service was on point! I would go back for sure!

Sat on the outdoor terrace overlooking the lake. The fishermen's net dish for 4 was well prepared, tasty and large portions with saffron rice on the side. I only wish I could have stayed longer and enjoyed the beautiful lakefront view.

Much like the other reviews we have also found this restaurant is always busy, but when you do get a table (ideally outside in the sun with a view over the lake) the food and drinks are brilliant. Be aware that the portions are large and dishes are for sharing so if you have fussy friends you may have to... More

I have been twice to this restaurant, the first time eating shrimps, which were great, and the second I ate pizza, and it was good. The decoration is very modern nd beautiful too. Strongly recommended in Brasilia.

Some of the best seafood dishes can be found in this restaurant. Same can be said for the drinks. But there is a wait, and service is rather slow, because the restaurant is packed. I guess because its food and drinks are so good!

Ok, food is nice and value for money is also good. However, be prepared to wait at least 1h30, being optimistic, for a table. Don't expect a fancy sea food dish, although they are tasty, it is a high turnover restaurant, so everything is pretty standardized and served fast...

Delicious food! Excellent prices and a beautiful view of the lake. The "caipivodka" here is excellent! I recomend the "Camarão à Beira Mar".

Not so special as expected. When we arrived we saw lots of people outside though the restaurant was huge, with nice outside esplanade. Reservations lady said the wait could take at least 1 hour, but we were ok to wait after the great reviews. As we walked in, we saw few empty tables at the end with high chairs, and... More
