Gateway to the stunning beaches of Rio Grande do Norte, the city of Natal is perched on Brazil's Atlantic coast, at the mouth of the Potengi River. Escape the bustle at secluded Pipa and Pirangi beaches or live it up at Genipabu and Tibau do Sul. The city is surrounded by Dune State Park. Go on a buggy ride over 30-foot sand dunes or tour the dunes on a dromedary tour. The city is home to the cleanest air on the continent, according to NASA, and also to the world's largest cashew tree.

10. Pizza Pazza

Pizza Pazza is the best choice for an informal evening out in Natal. Suitable for couples, business casual, and families with little kids. The restaurant is nothing fancy (open air along a major avenue), but it embodies everything you might expect from a popular local restaurant in Italy. The wine is cheap and the food is hearty and fresh. The pizza is thin crust Italian rather than doughy Brazilian or American style (thank God). The owner is an Italian long resident in Natal; luckily he has remained faithful to his origins. Unlike southern Brazil, authentic Italian food is hard to come by in the Northeast. Stick with Pizza Pazza and you won't feel too deprived for too long. Highly recommended.

I popped by with two friends for lunch, and was happily surprised to see new additions to the menu. Bacalhao al forno was really good, cheese pastel fantastic, and shrimps my friends had were the best we tried in Natal. Staff is very friendly, service is fast. I really liked this place! Parents with kids might like to know Mazzano has a small playground!

Well located at a major avenue at Ponta Negra, this self-service restaurant offers quite a variety of meals, including sushi. A choice between Brazilian cuisine and Japanese. Although full, one does not have to wait long.

7. Pizzaria Cipo Brasil

My husband's family lives in Natal and we visit every-other-year or so from Seattle, USA. Every time we come to Cipo Brasil to enjoy the delicious Brazilian-style pizza, fun pinga-based cocktails, and delicious crepes. Yes, this place is touristy, but I also know lots of Natal natives who eat here regularly.The pizzas are thin-crusted, many options come with a sprinkling of sesame seeds. Our favorites are the Margarita, the Chicken with Caitupiry (I think this is called Chicken with Cream Cheese in English), and the pepperoni (which is not like an American pepperoni pizza, as it comes with grilled onions, green olives, and a pepperoni that is a bit different than what we're used to). The best of the dessert pizzas or crepes is the Cartola, a delicious mixture of grilled bananas, chocolate, cinnamon and cheese. As for drinks, we love, love, love the strawberry-passionfruit caipi-fruta served in a touristy-but-cute coconut glass with little umbrellas and parrot-stir-sticks. Service is friendly and efficient-for-Natal/Brazil-standards.I agree with other reviewers, however, that the restaurant can get quite warm and a little buggy. Spray on some OFF! before heading here.

We were a group for dinner and the menu offered had a choice between shrimps, steak and fish. All the dishes showed up with the same risotto loaded with cheese, so heavy that everyone complained. I had the fish with this heavy-handed risotto, and the combination was not at all successful. Having been coming back to Natal for 10 years I have the feeling that cooking here deteriorated in time, tending to become ever the top, not light, not fresh and not what you expect from a place with ready access to the ocean and its fresh sea food and fish. The service was also horrible slow, some visitors fell asleep while waiting. Not recommended.

This place offers a huge variety of local cuisine specialties in a buffet style and you pay by the weight of your food. Local cuisine can sometimes be challenging for first timers, but is definitely tasty and different for Europeans and North Americans. Even if you dont want to try goat stomach, or local herbs, the place also offers more traditional plates. Worth the visit. Don't be shy.Olá! Tudo bem?

Fabio approached us at the beach of Ponta Negra with advertisement of his restaurant. I have glutenallergy and it is difficult to find good options of alternative food here, but Siciliana had a lot! And the quality of the food was excellent! We got a private chauffer from the Hotel and to the restaurant 10 minutes away. For no cost. Also for the return included. The quality of the food and the preparations of it, was exeptionally good. To be recommended â¤ï¸
