"Italian food like the traditional one found in Italy. Pizzas are not the best you can find in Rio. Good offer of wines. Great service. Intimistic space for dates. Not easy to park - small street and no vallet service."

"Luigi's served up the best meal I had during a 2 day stop over in Rio de Janeiro! All the food was amazing, from salads to pizza and pasta to dessert. They also had a great wine and local craft beer selection in bottles."

"One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to, not just in Rio de Janeiro, and that’s saying something! We had the fish in Aluminium foil and the filetto di manzo, beringela with mozzarella di bufala and bruschetta for starters, the food was nothing short of incredible, I highly recommend, you will not be disappointed."

"Neighborhood Italian restaurant with decent food, moderate prices and nice service. We had the antipasto with crunchy bread, plus a nice bolognese lasagna. Wifey had a VERY fresh pasta, elastic as it should be. No more place left for dessert, will try it next time."
