There are more great restaurants in Brasilia than anybody can ever try in one visit. The best thing about restaurants in Brasilia is that there is something to accommodate anyone's taste, from all you can eat meat buffets, to vegetarian cuisine and fine French dining. This is a guide to the most popular restaurants in Brasilia.

Pig Out At Porcao!

Porcao is a chain restaurant in Brazil, and there's one in Brasilia as well, near Pier 21. It has a huge picture of a pig on the sign, and you'll find out why once you go inside. At Porcao, you can eat as much as you want. You have a sign on your table with a stop sign on one side, and a green "go" sign on the other. Once you turn the sign to go, waiters will come around with plates of food (mostly meat, although there is salad and sushi as well) about as quickly as you can eat it. They won't stop until you turn it to "stop." At Porcao, the beef and pork are especially delicious. You'll be sure to get enough to eat there!

Where To Eat For Vegetarians

If you're not interested in stuffing yourself with meat, Brasilia has some excellent vegetarian choices. Brazil is a country that is known for its meat-eating, but restaurants like Real International Vegetarian Cuisine, located on the top floor of the Conjunto Nacional shopping mall, serves a variety of fresh, delicious vegetarian and vegan dishes. They are known for their salads and vinaigrettes, and also serves some fish dishes. The food is cheap, and they have live samba music in the evenings. The music and view of the city from the top floor make it a unique dining experience.

For An Upscale Dining Experience, Try Alice

Alice is located in a nice mansion in the heart of the city. The ambience is exquisite, and the food is wonderful. Alice serves French food and vintage wines from France, Argentina and Chile. Not only is the food good, it's home cooked. All meals are cooked by Alice Mesquita herself. There is no sign for Alice, but tell your taxi driver, and he's know exactly where to go. This is one of the best-rated restaurants in Brasilia.
