The restaurant is in Copacabana. Forgot the name. As you enter Copacabana from Botofogo, turn LEFT when the main street ends... the restaurant is on the left at the very end of that street.

There's a meat rodizio, and then to the left of it is the same restaurant but a seafood rodizio.

That's Marius. It's in Leme, not Copacabana.

I have to warn you though. There is nothing special about eating seafood in Rio.
