The first thing that strikes you about Jardim is the setting of the outdoor dining courtyard, sunken amidst several decaying colonial buildings, eerily lit, with vines and tropical plants all around. It's cool; it feels like something out of Disneyland, except for the fact that its authentic. A very good Brazilian singer with a guitar unobtrusively accompanied our meal. The... More

I've read good comments about Jardim das delícias and went there to have dinner with my boyfriend. We were extremely disappointed with the food and the high prices charged for it. He asked a shrimp specialty and it only tasted pineapple ! The shrimp came inside a pineapple, the sauce was made of pineapple and the rice was full of...pineapple... More

During our trip around Brasil, me and my friends decided to treat ourselves with a nice restaurant. After checking our guidebooks, we went to Jardim Das Delicias. A couple of hours after our dinner, I had the worse food poisoning and had to go to the nearest hospital to get treatment. The place looks nice (patio, dining room etc.) but... More

Great food, great service, and lovely atmosphere in the back outdoor patio with nightly entertainment. Worth dining here. Menu is large enough to accommodate most tastes.

We went there as a TA supporter recommended it as somewhere we could enjoy local music. The music was fine. The inedible Brazillian filet steak was the let down and I had to send the whole portion back as my teeth made no impression on it. My wife had the fish cooked in coconut which was good and we ended... More

I had a good picanha in this nicely placed restaurant in bahia. Not too expensive but not cheap as well. Espresso is not available. They only accept cash or Mastercard (they are very clear about this before you start ordering).

A block from the central Pelourinho square, this is the best restaurant in the area and one of the best kitchens in Salvador itself. It specializes in Bahia cuisine, but also serves international dishes. We were there for dinner and had a table in the garden, very pleasant. The “Bobó de Camarão” was delicious. A French lady played the guitar... More

After several days of Carne do Sol , heavy cheese sauces, and pizza it was good to walk into a restaurant that had made an effort to build a different menu. The only downside to the meal (which was on day 4 of carnaval) was that they couldn't offer any coffee and only fresh fruit available on the sweet menu.... More

If in Salvador, make a beeline for this place. The moqueca is the best I have ever eaten, and the candelit patio garden area at the back is a delight in the warm summer nights.
