Roberta Ciasca´s first venue offers up an exciting dinning experience. The food is simple yet inovative, one could say it´s good and honest comfort food. Don´t miss out on the deserts, specially the dulce de leite churros. The dinning area is clad in retro-vintage furniture giving the space a nice laid back feel. Worth a visit on your next trip...

Not many places in Rio are so funky and polished. Great food all around in a superb setting. The caipirinhas were the best I had in Rio on this trip

Isolated, far from the buzz of the the restaurant quarters, Miam Miam is a great place to meet friends. The drinks are quite original and delicious, the food is tasty, and a retro furniture gives the place a distinctive look. No formalities, a relaxed enviornment that is just like Rio.

Set in an old colonial house, very close to Copacabana but in an area that is not exactly a gastronomic paradise in the city, this restaurant exceeded all our expectations right from the beginning. We didn't have a reservation and despite the fact the place was already crowded, we were welcomed by a very warm and friendly staff (believe: that... More

I live in Rio and I often go to Miam Miam. The ambience is perfect - tiny but big enough to make you feel comfortable - and the food is great. Tastes good and looks simple. You should make a reservation or arrive early.

Loved this place, nice vintage environment, great service, delicious food, small and intimate, and excelent price quality relationship, what I call a good value proposition. A nice place to go just outside of the Leblon-Ipanema-Lagoa area.

The ambience is very pleasant but chilly due to strong aircondition (take a cardigan or a shawl with you!). Nice decoration with exposed brick walls. Helpful and nice staff, though not speaking much English. Now the food: excellent appetisers and desserts! The main course was also fine. Good price - quality ratio.

This restaurant is good in all aspects that matter: nice service, high quality food with excellent seasoning (but not too fancy) and very good drinks. The starters are terrific, but everything is good. If you are hungry, you should share one starter before the main course, as main courses are not huge. The working hours are weird, so check the...
