The best - Edit
A great little place for our date night, and we loved the whole concept. Great food, amazing cocktails, lovely service. The music was also really great, and we were so happy to find a link to their playlist. Really hope to come back for another visit before leaving Rio, because I want to try more of the menu.
Read morePros: Lovely atmosphere , Amazing cocktails, and so many to choose from, The banoffee dessert! Omg.

Good food and friendly staff - Edit
We had a great experience here. People were friendly and the environment was nice. Has a nice atmosphere for couples. Food was good and creative (which I always consider a plus in vegan restaurants), but still some meals are a bit overpriced to Brazilian standards (no wonder there are many foreigners there).

A vegan gastro-pub slash hipster bistro - Edit
I would not call this place “upscale.” In fact, it’s very informal, much like a spot one would don’t in NYC’s East Village or Le Marais in Paris. It has great a atmosphere, super nice staff, and absolutely delicious plant-based food. Do go.
Read morePros: Varied, delicious dishes., Cool atmosphere, laid back and vibrant/relaxed., Lovely staff, friendly and efficient. Good price

Delicious! - Edit
Had the fried mushrooms which legit looked like KFC! Very very good. You must try this! The curry we had was lovely, but not as spicy as I would have liked, but that is personal preference. It was still really nice. I had koftas which were nice in themselves but felt they needed something else because there was not much else to the dish. But the selection of food was lovely and he venue was cute and romantic. Would def recommend!

Top-rated for a reason - Edit
The food is extraordinary. Starters and mains are well thought through and the desserts looked phenomenal as well. Staff go above and beyond to make your stay as enjoyable as possible and we didn't have to wait long for our food to arrive even though the place was rather packed.
Read moreMy personal favourites were the Peruvian parsnip fries and the seitan milanese.
Of course, prices are somewhat expensive for Brazil, but considering the location in Ipanema, and the extraordinary quality of the ingredients, the prices are more than justified.
This will not have been my last visit.
Pros: Amazing food
Cons: Rather expensive

Good food close to Ipanema beach - Edit
Atmosphere was reasonable, the mushroom burger I had was delicious. My Omni partner had some pasta dish and really enjoyed it. The chocolate cake dessert was not the greatest however, too much strong dark chocolate syrup, the ice cream that came with it was yum.

Best vegan restaurant in Rio! - Edit
Teva is my top choice if you're looking for an incredible gastronomical experience in Rio! When I spoke with the head chef, Daniel, he told me that their aim was not to be the 'best vegan restaurant in the city'. Rather, he sought to be the 'best restaurant in the city'. Its plant based ethic is subtle, and the menu is focused on using seasonal, local produce to create exquisite food, rather than to conform to the conventions of 'typical' healthy/vegan food. The menu is curated, with just a few options per course. This is intentional. Focusing on just a few dishes means that each one is artfully created, perfected in every aspect from taste to presentation. Even so, one will find it difficult to choose a dish, since all are so exquisite! I recommend going in a group and ordering family-style if possible, so that you may try a little of everything. I went on two occasions, both in the evening, so was unable to try their lunch menu (though I heard it's fantastic). I have posted a full review with pictures, recommendations & tips on my site: http://sorayabeheshti.com/blog/by-region/teva-vegan-restaurant-rio-de-janeiro

Good quality Ipanema vegan food - Edit

Incredible food - Edit
I had the homemade lasagne and my friend the burger with a side of potatoes (basically potato wedges with a sauce on top) - both tasted incredible and we were really satisfied. The staff were really polite and accommodating. It is expensive however; although on par with other venues in the vicinity.
