This always-packed, partly open-air seafood stop does a commendable job with local fish at the Praia dos Molhes end of town, with panoramic Rio Mampituba views. The crab in its own shell (siri na casca; R$19.50) is wildly popular and the pineapple stabbed with skewers of shrimp (camarão à Grega; R$135) is just wild.
