Simply wow!! - Edit
We got there late on Friday night and it was full. They quickly accommodated us with some new tables outside ...we were a group of 5. We shared appetizers and mains and deserts as well. The spicy Tofu, the mushroom carpaccio and and and ...the apple pie at the end. It was all extremely delicious. The service and friendliness is also five stars. When in Rio, this is a must.

Worth every cent!! - Edit
We absolutely loved Teva! They were super accommodating, setting up a table for us outside, because it was full inside! The owner/chef (I’m not too sure) came over to our table and had a chat and recommended a few dishes. Everything we tried was delicious, would definitely come again!!

One of Rio’s Overall Best - Edit
SO. F-ING. GOOD. Eat here even if you’re not veg/vegan. I’m a spoiled New Yorker with access to some of the best vegan restaurants in the world. Honestly, Matthew Kenny could learn something from the plant-based restaurateurs of Rio; Teva being THE one. The food here just worked. Everything was fresh. Everything was flavorful. Nothing left me hoping for more. And, it’s accessible / affordable / comfortable. I would give six stars if the app allowed it.
Read morePros: Everything is delicious., Inexpensive., Excellent service.
Cons: Difficult to choose just one thing. , You won’t want to eat anywhere else. , Very filling.

Best vegan meal - Edit
Without a doubt the best vegan meal we have had during our trip to Brazil! The food was exciting and delicious. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the food and gave great recommendations to us and guided us through the menu as we don’t speak Portuguese. Definitely recommend and can’t wait to go back at the end of our trip!

Our food highlight of Rio - Edit
We had an incredibly good meal at Teva. The all vegan menu was perfect, and the clearly marked dietary restrictions (specifically gluten-free) was very useful. Jackfruit tacos were especially delicious, but it was all impressively good. Great atmosphere and service. The food highlight of our trip to Rio.

I’m sold - Edit
After my second visit to Teva, I had to update my previous lukewarm review. As on the previous visit the staff were superb and the ambience beautiful, but this time the food was also second-to-none. After starting with caipirinhas (R$26 each), we ordered the fondue (R$32), the mushroom carpaccio (R$42) and the bean cakes (R$30). I already knew the bean cakes were delicious from the São Paulo restaurant. The fondue was absolutely amazing, with the only criticism I‘d make being that perhaps there should be more than just bread for dipping: some vegetables would be good. However, the carpaccio was what sold me. This beautifully prepared and intensely flavoured dish was a classy vegan rendition that didn’t leave me feeling like I was missing out on taste. Excellent vegan fine dining.

Impossível não sair de lá sorrindo - Edit
O Teva é o melhor restaurante que eu já fui, e quando digo melhor, não digo melhor vegano, digo melhor de todos. A batata com queijo de tremoços e o Tiramisu são surreais, e o risotto caprese também. Porém, como é sazonal, pode ser que saiam do cardápio (o que é uma coisa boa, porque dá pra escolher as opções do cardápio de olhos fechados). Não é super barato, mas é mais barato do que se espera um restaurante com a filosofia e qualidade que o Teva tem. Qualquer pessoa que paga por um Balada Mix ou Outback poderiai pagar pelo Teva (e sair mais feliz)

So so good - Edit
The food was amazing! I got there right when it opened and I’m glad I did it got so busy! I ordered the vegan Wellington and the brownie and both were super tasty! (And they didn’t take too long to prepare) They also provide “house water” so you don’t have to buy a water bottle and can save the plastic! (Something not a lot of restaurants do) would 100% recommend for a nice lunch/dinner. But it is a rather pricy place to eat. Including tip I spent $90 real
