Mirante do Gavião Amazon Lodge

Top choice in Amazonas


This classy restaurant in the lodge of the same name has an extensive menu, focusing on local ingredients with a few innovative riffs; the iconic pirarucú fish is grilled with sweet potatoes, coconut milk, lemon and ginger. It's open to nonguests, but you'll need to call ahead to make a reservation. There are plenty of vegetarian options too.

The riverside setting is lovely.
