Secret Spot Restaurante — Restaurant in Região Geográfica Imediata de Fortaleza

The place was very busy on Wednesday night — for many good reasons! The food, prepared by the owner, once again exceeded my expectations. I ordered the Mediterranean Tuna cooked medium, and it was served perfectly — easily the best tuna dish I’ve had in months.

The only downside was the way the wine was served. I ordered a Cabernet Sauvignon from the wine list, but it was brought already opened and served chilled. When I mentioned that red wine should be served around 18°C, not 5°C, the waitress replied that I should have asked for room temperature. I politely explained that red wine should be presented before opening, so customers can check the label and vintage. Thankfully, the bottle was replaced with one at the proper temperature, which I appreciated.

For dessert, I had the “Secret Spot Sweet” — absolutely amazing! The mango and coconut flavors were a perfect match and really impressed me.

When I received the bill, I noticed that no service charge was added — one of the few places in Brazil that doesn’t. No surprises, just honest pricing.

A big “well done” to the owner and chef for preparing such outstanding dishes! My only suggestion would be for the waiters to open the wine at the table rather...

Update Nov 2024: After many visits. Seems new chef arrived. Our visit the sirigada fish was not the same anymore.

I dont know why i didnt try secret spot until my last day. I kept thinking it was a club. 😅

A dear friend said best seafood in town so i tried.

Wow! The seafood is indeed amazing. Service was also great. Even the fired potato cubes side dish was very nice. The lime juice was just ok (Varanda has better). But thats not so important, right?

A little expensive for Cumbuco, but not the most expensive. Definitely fits a foreigner’s expense budget 😉

Great atmosphere as the retaurant is upstairs on a big deck. No mosquito problem (i was eaten alive by mosquitos at the restaurant down the street under the...

Ótima recepção pela dona do restaurante, a eslovena Sra. Sânia(assim mesmo, com "n") e o marido Bóris. Reclamei para eles por terem servido em pratos e copos furados(kkk) porque ficaram vazios. Excelente sabor, especializado na cozinha mediterrânea. Média de investimento em torno de U$ 25 por pessoa, incluídos sobremesa e garrafa de vinho(U$ 17 para 2 pessoas).

Great reception by the owner of the restaurant, the Slovenian Mrs. Sânia (just like that, with an "n") and her husband Boris. I complained to them for having served on plates and cups with holes (kkk) because they were empty. Excellent flavor, specializing in Mediterranean cuisine. Average investment around U$25 per person, including dessert and bottle of wine (U$17 for 2 people).

Super accueil par la propriétaire du restaurant, la Slovène Mme Sânia (juste comme ça, avec un "n") et son mari Boris. Je leur ai reproché d'avoir servi dans des assiettes et des tasses trouées (kkk) car elles étaient vides. Excellente saveur, spécialisée dans la cuisine méditerranéenne. Investissement moyen d'environ 25 U$ par personne, dessert et bouteille de vin compris (17 U$ pour 2 personnes).

Odličen sprejem lastnice restavracije, slovenske gospe Sânia (kar tako, z "n") in njenega moža Borisa. Pritožil sem se jim, da so postregli v krožnikih in skodelicah z luknjami (kkk), ker so bile prazne. Odličen okus, specializiran za sredozemsko kuhinjo. Povprečna naložba okoli 25 USD na osebo, vključno s sladico in steklenico vina (17 USD...
