Arrived at 9pm. I had to rush to order as the kitchen was closing (closing time displayed is 10pm), other restaurants in front were still busy. Meat was ok, average. Should come with a hot plate to keep the warm.
This is s great restaurant to grab a steak. The meat is really well cooked and seasoned, and the the sides are exquisite. Parking is easy to find. The restaurant is pricier, but it is worth it. I do recommend it.

My husband and I have been Pobre Juan customers for years, we first dined in Fashion Mall in São Conrado Rio and then Village Mall in Barra da Tijuca. Recently on our trip in Recife we decided to go to Pobre Juan. Unfortunately when we arrived the host was lounging on the couch like a customer, he was busy looking at his phone. When we sat at the table, I ordered a glass of red wine and was served Alamos wine which you can buy at any grocery store in Rio, not a very sophisticated glass of wine.
A good chain restaurant should maintain consistency throughout all of their restaurants. The Recife restaurant was not as well decorated as the other Pobre Juan’s. We were planning to order our usual food items but considering how bad our initial reaction was to the host, the bad wine, the dirty menus and the wrinkled and old table top advertising, we decided to order less than usual. In the end the steak and salad were good but this Pobre Juan is not the same caliber as the Rio restaurant. What a pity, the corporate office needs to improve this branch.

You can eat better in cheaper places.
