Mocellin Mar — Restaurant in Região Geográfica Imediata do Rio de Janeiro

I celebrated my birthday at this restaurant, and it was hands down the best dining experience I had while visiting Rio—truly unforgettable. The food was absolutely delicious, easily the best city dining I’ve ever had in my life. Every dish was prepared fresh, and the portion sizes were generous, especially considering how affordable the prices were.

The views are stunning, which added to the overall experience. I made a reservation to dine outside, and it was honored with perfect seating—private, comfortable, and intimate. The atmosphere is ideal whether you’re celebrating something special or just looking to enjoy a peaceful, high-quality meal.

The drinks were great, and the staff were incredibly courteous and welcoming. Even though I’m not bilingual, I had no issues with communication whatsoever.

One of the things I appreciated most was the ability to walk around the area before or after dining—it’s a lovely neighborhood to explore. From start to finish, the experience was flawless, and the team truly made my birthday feel special.

Highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Rio. It’s a must-visit for anyone looking for amazing food, beautiful views, and...

Our experience at this seafood restaurant was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we walked in, we were treated like VIPs. The staff’s attention to detail and genuine care made every part of the evening unforgettable.

The highlight of the night was being personally invited into the kitchen for a behind-the-scenes tour. It was incredible to see the passion and precision that goes into every dish. You could feel how much pride they take in their work.

Every course we were served was an absolute masterpiece — fresh, perfectly cooked, and presented with such thoughtfulness. Each plate felt like it was made just for us, and the staff took the time to explain every detail with such warmth and enthusiasm.

This was more than just a meal; it was an experience we’ll be talking about for a long time. If you’re looking for exceptional seafood, outstanding hospitality, and a truly personal touch, this is the place. We cannot recommend it...

Absolutely spectacular! It is hard to say if the service or the food was the best as both were phenomenal. So many types of fish, sea bass, grouper, salmon, conger eel, and Japanese style Nigri, not to mention several different types/preparations of shrimp, and lobster tail. Keep in mind this is all-you-can-eat, served to your table as you ask, for less than $50USD per person.

There is a nice selection of drinks and deserts available for an additional charge. The tip is included in the price and is around 15%, but was too low in my opinion for the high quality of the service. Special shout-out for Miguel and Wilson! Gratidão demais!!

Directly outside the restaurant is a jetty style pier that has a beautiful view of Praia do Pepê and the Barra da...
