Grado

The story

Crafted with passion, served with love

A Recognized Table in Jardim Botânico

Grado sits on Rua Visconde de Carandaí, in the leafy Jardim Botânico quarter of Rio de Janeiro — a neighborhood known for its calm streets and considered dining culture. The restaurant earned 2 Forks from Gambero Rosso in 2025, a recognition that places it among a select group of addresses worth seeking out in Brazil's most celebrated city.

Beyond that accolade, Grado keeps a deliberately low profile, letting the experience speak for itself rather than courting attention. For diners who trust the guidance of an internationally respected food guide, that restraint is often a promising sign.

Worth the Visit

Gambero Rosso's Fork rating focuses on the overall dining experience — service, setting, and the coherence of what arrives at the table. Two Forks signals a restaurant operating at a genuinely high level, not merely a neighborhood favorite but a destination with standards that hold up to scrutiny.

Jardim Botânico provides an apt backdrop: unhurried, residential, and a little removed from the louder circuits of the city. Grado fits that character well.
