About this place

Alameda is a Brazilian restaurant hidden away down a side street off Sanlitun’s Bar Street. The restaurant is well worth finding, especially for their lunch special, which is only 60 yuan for a starter and main dish. The lunch menu changes daily and there is usually a meat, fish or vegetarian option for both the starter and the main. The menu may be a bit limited, but the food is healthy, very fresh, and beautifully presented, which more than makes up for the lack of selection.
 
The glass walls make the restaurant feel light and summery. However, customers may experience a bit of noise fatigue when it gets busy as the sound seems to reverberate (rumour has it they are moving to new premises in the future so check back here for an update). 
 
Alameda is nestled amongst a number of interesting clothing shops (in the Nali Mall), which makes for fun shopping or browsing after lunch.
 
Making a reservation in advance is recommended, especially for lunch.
