Considered by many to be the best Brazilian restaurant in all of New York City, Ipanema offers a relaxed and contemporary atmosphere complemented by the authentic cuisine cultivated over the past 30 years. While the name Ipanema refers to the famous beach in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil the menu is firmly rooted in the culinary crossover between both Brazil and Portugal. Ipanema’s menu combines the timeless history of Portuguese recipes with the zest and vibrancy of Brazilian cuisine, resulting in a one-of-a-kind dining experience. Zagat says, “under the radar in the middle of Little Brazil, this friendly West 40s stalwart has been churning out tasty Brazilian-Portuguese dishes for more than a quarter-century.” 4 stars on Yelp, 4.5 on Tripadvisor, this is a sure winner for those looking to experience a non-traditional meal.
