Our Local Experts say:

Though vegetarian restaurants are not especially common in Rio, there are many dishes offered in the Buffet restaurants that will appeal to Vegetarians. Many of the other specialty restaurants also offer dishes that are free from meat products.

Interestingly, the selection of dishes available on the buffet at Rio’s Churrascarias offers some of the most varied and broadest offerings for vegetarian patrons. Most restaurants in Rio typically have something to offer everyone – both imaginative and innovative – as they tempt the taste buds of those who don't eat meat and those who do.
