Visit this eclectic and bohemian neighborhood of Santa Teresa (home of some great restaurants). There is a good restaurant called Mineiro. They have an amazing Feijoada (black beans stew with pork meat). Many of the bars around are full of locals, and have the best Caipirinhas you will find in Rio.
Our favorite meal is breakfast, and you will find a lot of places where you can ask for an expresso, fruits and a french toast with butter.
Another good local option is the restaurant Braseiro da Gavea, at Baixo Gavea neighborhood. They simply have the best Picanha cut you can find in Rio, full of locals and not expensive at all for the great food you will enjoy!

Flavors include a vast selection of tropical fruit delights, many of which contain pieces of real fruit. It's the typical Brazilian ice cream, it has nothing to do with the italian one. Do like the locals and order a "picolé" (popsicle).

It may be a little pricey but is worth the visit. The staff is very friendly, the owner is always around greeting everyone. And the food is really-really good. I've been there for breakfast, lunch and just coffee with friends and it has never disappointed me. If you want to eat at home you can just buy their bread, jam and cookies to take away!

Even if you've booked a Hotel with Breakfast included (the majority) or a B&B, it's worthy trying eating it here. Pick up an outside table and enjoy the baked goods while you watch the crowd at Leblon. It's definitely a place to see and to be seen.

It's a sweet spot for a relaxing breakfast. The owners are from Goiás so it's a kind of regional meal with simple and tasty food such as the cheese bread and the drip coffee. They also serve lunch and soups in the evening.

That's a typical business coffee place. It's very crowded right after lunch because the employees of all the companies around like to go here for a good cup of coffee. Sometimes, it's used for informal business meetings or by free-lancers.
