Lá em Casa
A little-known fact is that this Belém institution is in fact two restaurants side by side, neither of them called Lá em Casa. That's the old name, but the owners haven't bothered to take down the sign, and besides, you'll only get funny looks asking for the real names: ‘Vero-o-Pesinho' (per kilo R$29; open for lunch, closed Saturday) has a tasty self-serve spread in a casual bistro-like setting, while ‘O Outro' (mains R$16 to R$50; open for lunch Sunday only) is a formal glass-walled restaurant with international fare and expert service.

Boteco das Onze
Part of Casa das Onze Janelas gallery, this classy joint is one of the city’s best restaurant-bars for lunch, dinner and beyond. You can sit in either the dining room with modern art on the walls, or on the breezy back patio overlooking the river. Meals include moqueca de filhote, a tasty stew prepared with catfish, shrimp and lobster. There’s live music virtually every night (cover R$6 to R$10), and plenty of good beer and drinks to choose from.

Cosanostra Caffé
The dim lighting and unmarked entrance lend a certain Goodfellas ambience, and Frank Sinatra happened to be playing when we visited, but the beefy guys at the bar are mostly businesspeople on a break. Lunch specials include a main dish, side dish and soda for R$10, or order larger plates off the menu. The bar is open late, and there’s live music after 11pm.

K’Delícias IV
One of the few eateries open on Sunday, its extensive and smartly displayed spread makes this one of the center’s best per-kilo spots, and with air-con blasting, one of the most comfortable too. The original K’Delícias I (lunch Monday to Saturday) is smaller but better located, on Rua 28 de Setembro 276 just off Av Presidente Vargas.

Restaurante Belo Centro
This friendly, airy restaurant cooks up tasty self-serve, with plenty of options for vegetarians and carnivores. It can be hard to find – look for a sandwich-board sign and narrow stairway at the back of an eyeglasses store.
