Food at Primitivo was great - I highy recommed the Nhoque de Banana da Terra.
Prices are not cheap, but it’s worth for the quality of the dishes.
Pasta was well served for one person. Good wine/veer options.
Just incredible, had the best Canelloni Ever, Primitivo is a very good Italian Restaurante right at the middle of Rua das Pedras, must go!!Do NOT MISS!!!

We skipped starters, had some diet drinks with a bottle of malbec with a pasta and pizza main course, total came to a good value £60GBP. Glad we didn't get starters, the mains were massive. Couldn't finish my pizza. So nearly did, but left 1...slice. Nice location, felt cosy/romantic, would go back.More

Hi Hans ! Primitivo is just a good Restaurant located in Búzios. I think there is no transportation from GIG till there provided. The trip takes about 3 hours (160 km distance).
