    Good old fashioned American comfort food breakfast and brunch! Their bacon is perfect--crisp and thick cut. The Bloody Mary is very nice. Don't bother with the bagels, though-wrong texture

    Great breakfast - you can go all in with waffles, hash browns, bacon or healthy with omelet, fruit salad. All good. And classic carrot cake - yum.

    EVERYTHING is GOOD here. True confort food. It’s not big so, come early if you don’t want to wait. Eggs benedict are a must

    American breakfast all day and it's amazing! There's lots of options but to me the best one is the country style breakfast dish, they also serve lunch.

    A bit expensive for breakfast food but they have things like root beer and cream soda floats and great American favorite cakes.

    Pros: small place in the heart of Ipanema. Nice place for breakfast. Cons: The rating here is not so high because it is expensive, service is slow. They don't show Bundesliga matches...

    Ordered bagel with lox and capers and two buttermilk pancakes for breakfast. Excellent choice!

    Pancakes with maple syrup were the best I had in Rio. Egg white omelette was good and service OK. The place is not cosy - wish it looked more like a typical American diner. Expensive for what you get.

    It's quite expensive for what you get. The place is cute, retro style. Very American. The best dessert is the chocolate pie.

    Perfect place to have an American style breakfast or a snack in the afternoon. Parfait pour un petit-déjeuner américain a Rio.

    the pancakes and waffles are great, as well as the service. The only issue it's a quite expensive and there's no air conditioning.

    American restaurant full of tourists (even more now during the World Cup). Really bad and slow service, they messed up the orders 3 times and took more than 40 mins. Food could be better for the price

    The eggs in my Benedict were almost hard boiled. Service was totally disorganized. There was nothing that would justify the high prices. Avoid.

    Carrot cake: sensacional! Belíssima surpresa. Em compensação, o Combinado Country vem numa quantidade lamentável, chega a ser constrangedor. Pedimos c/ linguiça, panqueca e french toast à parte.
