I went there many times... for breakfast, lunch and also a wedding!!! Really amazing restaurant with fantastic food and drinks. This restaurant is a traditional place to local people. Go there!!! You won't be dissapointed!!!

We had lunch in this restaurant, after choosing different type of pastels and cakes in the front. The atmosphere is comparable to Angelina cafe downtown Paris, with XIXth century furniture, mirrors and painted ceilings. We also drank the best Caipirinha we had during our 10 days trip in Brazil. You cannot leave Rio de Janeiro without visiting this restaurant and... More

This cafe is beautiful - well worth the visit just to look at the giant, framed mirrors and stained glass. However, I would avoid eating anything here. When my mother and I came to town for a visit in mid-March 2013, we decided to visit the Confeitaria Colombo as it had been highly recommended to us. We visited the Rua... More

This is a classic place and great for coffees and waffles. The upstairs lunch menu is pricey at 69 reais. While you may enjoy the surroundings the lunch buffet is tasteless, un-creative and totally average. Horribly overpriced and less than por-kilo quality. Bland and boring. Still worth the experience. Just be prepared.

This is a lovely restaurant at the Forte - the tables outside look forward to Sugar Loaf and back to Cococabana and as the sun sets and the lights come on, it is very romantic. The food is very good and reasonably priced for the location and quality of food

Wauw. Living in Rio, I keep coming back. First of all it is a place where you can enjoy the classic architecture - it is almost art deco style. You feel like you are in Paris or Hungary. And you can get traditional portuguese bakery sweets like "pastel de belem". If you are dying for a rest on a sight-seeing,... More

The BEST place to eat on the surface of the PLANET EARTH. The best view of the world. Food is excellent. Ask for salads and share the dish. Too much (excellent) food. Have coffee, have sweets. And regret you must leave the place.

Not 5 stars because of the price (little expensive) but you have to go when visiting the centre. try the "pastel de nata".

If you like an environment with a refined atmosphere, then you'll enjoy the Confeitaria Colombo. Since 1894, with its original mirrors and Belgian frames, Carrara marble, stained glass, they may need to restore some things, but ultimately well worth knowing. On the ground floor with the most delicious "salgados e doces" typical Brazilian and Portuguese. The antique elevator also leads... More
