Saveur Bistrot

"Excellent dinner. Small, cozy, intimate space for a romantic evening. We chose the samples by the chef. Eight or nine dishes brought one after the other. All small portions very elegantly platted. Excellent combination of flavors. The servers are the sweetest, super professional. Really made us feel cared for. Highly recommend this for a romantic dinner."

"Food: Best restaurant experience, food wise, so far in Brasilia. The first four course of the 5 plate menu were BY FAR the best combined meal I have had here. The 5th, dessert, was good too - however, the ice cream/semi-freddo had unpleasant icy crystals in it - the chef MUST taste before it goes out, every night. Espresso was decent for Brazil, but would suggest reducing the water by 1/3 to make it more intense. Nice selection of local Brasilia wines, which are - amazingly- quite good. Service: Great at the beginning when I arrived and the restaurant was almost empty. However, as the restaurant filled up, the service slowed down. Two servers on a Saturday night with 30+ client is simply not enough. Smaller details: my wine glass did not remain topped up; requested pepper mill did not come until I asked again. Bill/check took too long to come. Another sign of understaffing on the floor (unfortunately common in Brazil). Atmosphere/location: a gem hidden in a house in a gated community in a residential neighborhood. I like it! Overall: Easily the best restaurant so far in Brasilia. World class food, which is saying a lot. Will definitely come back several times to try more of the dishes. Luckily live in the neighborhood. VERY reasonable price flat R$199 for the five course menu. So close to being an amazing experience, let down by the dessert and the unacceptable slow down in the service as the restaurant filled up. Almost left with a big grin on my face, but due to the small issue I mentioned, only left with a smile. Edit: Ontem tivemos um jantar maravilhoso, a comida estava realmente deliciosa. Já jantei duas vezes no Saveur Bistrô, acho que é o melhor que encontrei em Brasília. Contudo, a experiência foi, infelizmente, gravemente agravada em ambas as ocasiões devido a atrasos excessivos. Chegamos às 19h. Eram 21h50 quando finalmente fomos finalizados. Sob nenhuma circunstância deve demorar 3 horas para um jantar de cinco pratos. Esperamos pelo menos 20, senão 30 minutos para os pratos principais chegarem. Isso, na minha humilde opinião, é algo que o restaurante deveria abordar. Se a entrega fosse mais rápida, o Bistro Saveur seria realmente um restaurante de classe mundial. Have gone twice more. Service has been much faster, and they gave me a voucher for the bad experience I mention above. The new 4 course menu is great. The risotto with sausage and shrimp needs some work. The sausage overwhelms and the shrimp were a bit too crusty. However, the brownie, chocolate mousse and salted caramel sauce is AMAZING! One of the best deserts I have probably ever had. Update: What an absolute shame they closed down the original unique and atmospheric location for a run-of-the-mill location in Asa Sul. :( I am yet for try it though."

"If not the best restaurant in Brasília, for sure it is in the top 5. delicious food, amazing, AMAZING service. Saveur has a unique interior that can be for a very romantic dinner but also a first date. Nice selection of wines and also a modern international menu. Not only delicious food, a good range of products but (hard to believe, I know), for a VERY good price. So, if you want to enjoy a REALLY good evening, with good food and wine for an honest price I DO recommend the Saveur for you. It is located at South Lake, inside a closed condo. Oh, BTW, you need to book your table in advance ok!?"

"I was impressed with the amazing cozy place. But even more impressive were the dishes... absolutely delicious"

"This place is amazing thank you so much for the wonderful food"
