This restaurant has two strengths. The first is its location. Located on Doca Station, it offers a unique view of the river. Dispenses the walls and the entire view is through a glass wall. The other strong point is the food. Maybe a little more expensive than other restaurants, but the final quality is what matters. Try regional dishes like... More

Located right on the river in Belem in the beautiful estacao das docas mall, this restaurant has a nice menu of authentic traditional local foods. The dishes are very modern in their style and presentation however. I had the filhote croquettes with manioc flour and Jambu rice which is an herb that numbs your tongue as you eat. The fish... More

The restaurant is well located at the Docas with an open air terrace and a great view. The menue has all the typical reginal fish and vegetables anf fruit and you can try a degustation menue that will give you all typical fish from Amazone. Prices are acceptable but the final quality gives the impression that the effort is not... More

The docas are a a wonderful place to walk admiring the ancient yellow cranes and the fine restored warehouses that now house restaurants, shops, a theater, some history of the city and ATM's that will actually recognize your bank card. La em Casa is one of a couple of restaurants offering an extensive, if somewhat pricey lunchtime buffet of traditional... More

De acordo com o website o slogan deles é: "Gostoso como sempre", bom eu não sei qual a definição de gostoso para essa bandas do país.... De qualquer forma, o serviço não é bom, o Buffet é super limitado, principalmente não tem muitas opções de frios ou saladas. Sem dizer que o aspecto parecia ser velho ou de resto de... More

Good regional food (but also other), the fish-dishes are really worth to try. They have also a buffet, with a big range of choices.

This is the first restaurant in Belém to introduce regional food (açai, tucupi, pirarucu fish, spices ) in a top level cousine headed by former chef Paulo Martins and inspired top chefs like Alex Atala to use it in theirs restaurants.

Considered the greatest propagator of gastronomy from Para. Be sure to try the "corridinho de peixe". To dessert the "mix Paraense" brings small samples of cupuaçu sweet, bacuri cream and acai with tapioca flour.

A good place to try the different specialities from Pará. Maniçoba, Tacacá, Carurú, pato ao tucupi, etc... Have a nice Cintra and for desert go to Cairu for a nice ice-cream!
