Tio Armenio is the sort of restaurant we like to go on Sundays with our family or friends. Good food at reasonable prices, very good service and excellent locations, since it is located at both of our main shopping malls.

One of the bests untill the last 3 visits in the last months. The food is still good but not excellent anymore, dont know where the magic touch was lost but the last three times didn’t left a good impression. Don’t get me wrong the burger are still ok, but look elsewhere for top quality sandwiches. Meat wasn’t top notch as in past days and the point wasn’t impeccable. I think its time to myburger get back on track and shine again.Thanks for your precious minutes. With tihis attitude, specially after 3 visits, you help us to improve our burgers. We work every day to keep our high level of quality and our reputation on market.Obrigado por seu preciso tempo.

Have been there many times with friends. Nice environment and service with a modern/queer tone. Reasonable price. Good food. The menu offers from basics to creative alternatives - it is usually worth to try the more adventurous ones and the waiters usually have good suggestions. My favourite recent discovery is the coconut mousse with guava. Also, the restaurant is located in a nice shopping gallery with some independent labels.

Goat meat is the specialty of this restaurant, and it comes in all variants: ribs, sausage, filets etc. With local cuisine side dishes. Great choices of wine, very friendly and effective service. The restaurant also serves sushi. The interior has a very nice ambience and the type of guests is mixed: people in their twenties, thirties, couples, groups, older peoples, families, also very good to eat out with colleagues or groups. All dressed up, but informal wear as well. It is obvious that people pick this restaurant to really go out, enjoy company and conversation, they dress up for it. good vibes at this place!Hello, how happy we were to be able to read your evaluation and all your recognition. Looking forward to your next visit !!

The restaurant is on the first floor at the main entrance.The restaurant is very elegant. The waiters were helpful and they showed us a very nice piece of meat for 2 people. As we were not so hungry, we had to decline and ordered a traditional ojo de bife which was perfectly grilled. There is a large variety of side dishes. We also had the burger which was also perfectly grilled and with cheese and arugola salad in a wonderful bun. The burger comes with fries and a divine guava ketchup - very delicious!They have a large selection of wine and beer.

Reviewed By Wes B

We had our supper during the "happy hour" time. Ordered fried shrimps and risotto for 2, plus 4 drafted beers, which complimented our meal. We took a picture of our dish and compared to the same posted on their menu. That's why we didn't give 5*. We paid R$120.00 with a tip included.We were very happy when we received reviews like this! Come back to Camarada forever! :)
