Le Petit
Affable owners Sapo and Miriam launched their business a generation ago as a place for locals to sip beer while waiting to use the town’s lone public phone. Over 20 years later, it’s still popular as much for its unhurried, convivial atmosphere as for its inspired treatments of the valley’s favorite fish; try the trout in sake sauce with coconut farofa (sautéed manioc flour).

Uai Tchê!
This cozy hole-in-the-wall with cachaça bottles lining the shelves serves a mean feijão tropeiro (a classic concoction of rice, beans, sausage and kale) and an even meaner caipirinha to wash it down. The inspired range of artisanal sausages includes truta (made with local trout) and Jamaica (made with chicken, cinnamon, cloves, oranges and honey).

Rosmarinus Officinalis
Beautifully set amid gardens, with smoke pouring out its chimney in chilly weather and candlelight reflecting off the windows at night, this restaurant looks like a fairy-tale house, but the food is strictly gourmet. The menu of locally influenced Italian dishes, such as risotto with grilled trout, has earned it a reputation as one of Mauá’s finest restaurants.
