Ceviche RJ

Rio de Janeiro


This simple Peruvian-run restaurant serves arguably the best ceviche in Rio. Although there is some seating inside the restaurant, most diners sit outside in what is essentially a car park. The sublime ceviche is the compulsory order, but a few other classic Peruvian dishes are available, alongside a selection of decent craft beers and a handful of wines.
