Felice cafe was a really nice spot close to Ipanema beach. We came there for dinner and the next day for lunch again. Food is good, atmosphere and service great and nicely gay minded.

Very cozy environment, a really complete menu with a lot of options. We tried the Risotto and different kinds of steaks which were amazing. Also, very good Apple Martini.

The food in Felice is great! It is very tasty. The service is excellent also and there is a wide variety of dishes to choose from. One flaw is that the "pastel" portion is too big for only two or three people, and there is no smaller sized portion.

We got in there by chance an evening during our last days in Rio in January. The food was lovely, perfectly prepared beef. The waiter who served us was very friendly. The only issue we had was the air conditioning which was far too cold. Air conditioning is needed during the hot months in Rio but freezing is not a... More

This popular icecream parlor and restaurant offers up simple and basic food. It´s pretty correct, some dishes are special like the Moroccan couscous with shrimp. But don´t go out of your way to have dinner at this restaurant. It can be nice to visit after a long day at Ipanema beach.

After being sat we were stuck for an unusually long time with out menus and without someone taking our drink order. Finally we got... More

Had a wonderful steak and amazing caiprinhas for lunch. Everything was very well priced for rio. The service was great and the waitress even split the check three ways for me and my friends. We decided to go back for breakfast a couple days later and had an awful time. We sat outside and our food took forever and when... More

Felice Cafe is now my favorite restaurant and gelateria in Ipanema. Try the sea food or the ice cream cocktails.

Called in here for some dinner smack back in the middle of a bloco party during carnaval, was pleased to get a table despite no reservation. Food was of a much higher standard than many restaurants in rio, English menu available with a wide selection of meat & fish which we didn't see much of in rio. I had spiced... More
