The newly minted outpost mirrors that of its former location, opened in 1979. The original owner's sons, Carlos & Victor Pedro, pay homage to their father's legacy by tapping into tradition, but with an upscale, elevated spin sure to wow all of your senses.
Sip on a Yemangin (floral infused gin, bourbon, raspberries, sparkling wine) & explore the sensation of flavors in the Ostra (oysters, acerola, heart of palm, green relish), as well as the Bitoque (NY Strip, Potato gratin, steak Diane, egg). The Bacalhau (fresh cured cod, bacon, cilantro, chickpeas, aquafaba) is another star.
Cap the night off with a Cumaru dessert comprised of cumaru cream, caramelized bananas, and bourbon sauce, and let your taste buds spark some major wanderlust...
If a quick trip to Brazil is out of the question, it doesn't get much closer than Ipanema - a Midtown jewel that serves up the most beautiful, authentic Brazilian & Portuguese cuisine owned & operated by a family who is truly passionate about sharing the bounties of their culture with hungry New Yorkers.
The space is luxe, filled with intimate touches like cozy banquettes, warm woods, and a hand-cut stone floor. While you admire the scene, Executive Chef Giancarlo Junyent (Tom Colicchio’s Temple Court, Berimbau) will execute a menu that is firmly rooted in the culinary crossover between both Brazil and Portugal.
The timeless history of Portuguese recipes merge with the zest and vibrancy of Brazilian cuisine - especially when you add in top-notch cocktails, wines, and beers. First, get your palate fired up with the velvety Patê made with chicken liver mousseline, passionfruit, and sourdough bread.
Next up, divine over the Porco - a behemoth country rib chop with feijao tropeiro, and cacau mole, in addition to the Arroz De Pato - that being crescent duck, rice, sausage, orange, and jus. Finally, the signature Moqueca is unmatched thanks to the combo of halibut, mussels, clams, shrimp, squid, dende oil, and coconut milk.
Let the sumptuous dessert finalize this exceptional evening - Rio de Janeiro has never tasted so close to home...

Ipanema whisks you away to an outstanding place, earning a stellar 4 Stars on Yelp from 1,395+ reviews including:
"Excellent food, ambiance and service. I'm Brazilian and I was there last night with two American friends, and we all loved it. We ordered pork belly, polvo, seafood moqueca and picanha and we were very happy with everything. Bartenders were also exceptional. The caipirinha with pineapple and cinnamon was out of this world! I've lived in America for a few years now, and this is by far the best Brazilian restaurant I've been to."
"Firstly, the restaurant is beautiful, with impeccable vibes all around. Secondly, the food is absolutely amazing. We got several dishes, the ceviche, the pork belly, the steak, and the duck. All were absolutely incredible - the steak was truly some of the best I've ever had. Third, the cocktails were delicious! All around, a 10/10 experience! Will most definitely be going back!"
"I so rarely feel compelled to leave a review, but our experience was SO delightful that I needed to take a moment to recommend Ipanema. The attention to detail, service, and food were exceptional. We are definitely returning again and again."
