Sep 26, 2026"Great galeto (rotisserie chicken) , great picanha filet and French fries n farofa. The service is a bit slow and sometimes the place is packed so you have to wait even longer. However the food is really good and the dishes are large enough to split with 2"

The locale is gorgeous, remains as-is since it opened and the service couldn't be better. They were great, and always kept an eye on us - the place was a bit empty as we arrived around 3.30pm though. We ordered Picanha, Franco and half a portion of batatas. More than enough to share between 2. Id recommend getting half the portion of picanha as they are huge. Table next to us ordered the chicken hearts which looked amazing, a pitty we didn't get to try them (you should!). Total was approx 160 R$/pax, so it's mildly expensive."

Aug 19, 2026"This place is amazing. Personally, both the Copacabana and Botafogo restaurants are on par. The service and remarkable taste of the dishes leave a lasting impression. I’ve had pichana in different parts of the world, but by far the way the chefs BBQ it at Galeto Sats is second to none. Word to the wise: if you want a sit-down meal and less wait times, then Botafogo is the way to go. If you’re looking for something quick and want to meet people in a bar setting, then the Copacabana branch is recommended. Don’t forget to order the garlic bread."

All though the wait for this famous spot is a bit much, you are instantly greeted with a relaxing area to order small bites and drinks prior. After an hour of waiting and probably 4 beers each, we were seated. Food came out pretty quick, and was absolutely delicious. The simplicity in the fries, zing in the rice, and tenderness of the steak with a mid day drunk was all I could ever wish for. I ate this, satisfied, went home directly after at 5pm, and slept. I think Anthony Bourdain would have been proud. Will be back!"
