Restaurante Zé Maria

Fernando de Noronha


Located inside the hotel of the same name, this high-end restaurant is famed Brazil-wide for its over-the-top, all-you-can-eat R$230 seafood buffet spectacle on Wednesday and Saturday evenings (reservations essential). Owner Zé Maria catches a good amount of the fish himself.

Most of the vegetables on the plates here – and indeed served in other restaurants around the island – come from the hotel's impressive hydroponic farm.
