Chef Rafa Costa e Silva's Lasai holds two Michelin stars and consistently ranks among Latin America's best restaurants, offering a hyper-seasonal tasting menu built around the chef's own farm produce. The food is ingredient-obsessed, vegetable-forward, and quietly stunning without being showy. The converted house setting in Botafogo is warm and unpretentious for the price point. Reservations open months ahead and disappear fast.
