Restaurants in João Pessoa

1. Mangai

   • João Pessoa, Brazil
   • Restaurants › Other

   This spectacular regional buffet is worth the stop in João Pessoa alone. Nearly everything is labeled in English and there’s plenty for vegetarians. Save room for the decadent caramelized cashews smothered in doce de leite (creamy milk-and-sugar concoction) and chocolate.

2. Giramundo

   • João Pessoa, Brazil

   Overcooked picanha (choice beef cuts) shouldn’t stop you from having a good time at this wildly popular beach kiosk, a Swiss-Brazilian endeavor, notable not only for the usual suspects, but also for the out-of-place grilled bratwurst, currywurst, kalbsbratwurst and Eisenbahn microbrews – none of which are often seen north of Santa Catarina.

3. Empório Café

   • João Pessoa, Brazil
   • Restaurants › Other

   Early evening this retro-indie café/bar dishes up great value salads, sandwiches, quiches and soups – you name it, with loads of veggie options – to a beautiful crowd. As the evening wears on, it packs in more trend and beauty for cocktails and indie tunes (DJs on weekends after 11pm).

   This unassuming spot is the place for an afternoon/early evening bowl of Brazilian delight: açaí completo: overflowing with bananas, honey, raisons and cashews.

   This is an excellent self-serve lunch place in Tambaú; good for meats and fish, and great for salads and cheeses.
