Batuva is one of the few restaurants in town that has a decent and consistent service. It specializes in Uruguayan style grill - parrilla. The menu includes more traditional grilled meat (picanha, entrecot, filet) and the house specialties where meat is served in sauce. The filet in cream sauce is the one to order. Fish is in the menu as well. The house has a good selection of wines - mostly Chilean and Argentinian. The obvious fault is not having a wine refrigerator. In summer, wine is not an option here. All in all, one of the best options for eating out in Pelotas.

Amor Amora is a great idea - a restaurant where love is the main theme. The menu varies by season, trying to make the best use of products available. The house also borrows from the slow food movement, and the idea is to enjoy a full meal, no hurry. Usually the menu includes many options, ranging from delicate to spicier dishes and combining local and international cuisine. A fixed price menu includes a basket of artisanal breads & dips, a starter and a main dish. So far, so very good. The problem is that the dishes are not consistently good, and some days you will eat much better than others. Also, timing may be a problem. Despite the slow food idea, sometimes it may be too slow. Also, I miss a larger wine selection and a wine fridge to keep the bottles. In summer, it may impossible to enjoy a bottle of ambient-temperature red. On the other hand, the selection of Deserts is excellent - don't miss the banana pie - all made in house. Despite the gripes, the place deserves a visit, and most likely you'll enjoy a delicious meal. Note that all this refers to dinner. For lunch the house offers a self-sevice table, by the kilo.

The historical Brazilian town of Pelotas, gateway to the Pampa plains, has one more reason to be proud of: Chu! A branché restaurant, with delicious food, great wine cellar, lovely service and cosmopolitan atmosphere. Its architectural project is a prized one: an old building, totally renovated, creating spaces that are functional, warm and charming, very charming indeed! The fireplace and the herbs garden should be visited. Chef Chu is not afraid of showing his modern kitchen and his admired skills: a glass window reveals the secrets of a special scene. You look inside and there he is, tireless, present at all moments, creating an unforgettable moment for us. It was a pleasure having the opportunity to get to know Chu Restaurant, a delicious and wonderful surprise in Pelotas. Noisy? Yes, as most restaurants in Brazil are and this fact won't spoil your evening. The high ceiling is probably the reason for increasing the noise. Chu is a place for meeting friends, for family dinners and specially, a place for celebrations, where children are welcome. So, please, enjoy the Chu experience!

5. Churrascaria Lobao

Churrasqueria Lobao is a nice restaurant located on one of the main avenues of Pelotas. And you can eat oh so very good meat. In the middle of the restaurant you have a bar that has all the non-meats, aka fresh vegetables, salads, rice, these thinly cut potatoes that serve as a side dish here in Pelotas, fruits (for desert) and so on. So you choose a table, ask for soemthing to drink (remember that the "normal" beer size in Pelotas is 600+ ml, so if you don't want that much beer ask for half a beer, wich are the 300+ ml bottles), take the plate on your table and serve yourself all the non-meat you want. And then, please do sit down so the servers can come to your table with different cuts, sizzling hot, and ask you if you want a piece. And you can eat all sorts of meat, mostly beef but also pork ribs, lamb and I think those were little chicken (I guess) hearts. And you can't resist when the guy comes and asks you if you want picanha, oh yes I do! And you must also try this cut that they prepare next to you with yogurt and morango (strawberry) jam oooooh. Everything was so goooood. A must in Pelotas.

Large variety of burgers with fair price!
The best option would be the Cheese Bebum! The meat of this burger is marinated in wine making the meat very soft and tasty. Also, their homemade mayonnaise is also a must, when you eat here!
The burger size is great and one is enough for each person!
Bare in mind that during the weekend it gets really, really busy!
Highly recommended!
