Sushi Leblon has been Rio's benchmark Japanese restaurant for decades, offering high-quality sushi and sashimi in a sleek, buzzy room that attracts a fashionable local crowd. The fish quality is consistently excellent and the omakase option is the best way to experience the kitchen. It is not cheap and the scene can feel more social than gastronomic, but the food genuinely delivers. Book ahead for weekend evenings.
