The best

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.

Pros: Lovely atmosphere , Amazing cocktails, and so many to choose from, The banoffee dessert! Omg.

Good food and friendly staff

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).

Pros: Creativity, Staff, Atmosphere

Cons: Price

A vegan gastro-pub slash hipster bistro

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.

Pros: Varied, delicious dishes., Cool atmosphere, laid back and vibrant/relaxed., Lovely staff, friendly and efficient. Good price

Delicious!

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!

Pros: Lots of options , Nice ambiance

Cons: Expensive (a little), Not highly flavourful

Top-rated for a reason

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.
My 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

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.

Pros: All vegan, Good location , Delicious mushroom burger

Cons: Cake was not good, Music a little loud , Menu not in English

Best vegan restaurant in Rio!

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

Pros: Incredible, gourmet food, Constantly changing menu, Trendy vibe - great for date night

Cons: Expensive

Good quality Ipanema vegan food

Very yummy food in a top location near ipanema beach, however I did find it a little pricy considering the portion size (or maybe I just ordered the wrong thing) . The menu has a few options designed for sharing and a couple of daily specials too.

Pros: Good location , Good quality

Cons: Portion size

Incredible food

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.
