The whole evening is designed so you don't arrange transport, book a restaurant separately, or wonder what to eat — it's all decided, all included, all in one room in Rio.

The Experience

Most dinner shows in Rio feel like they're performing Brazil at you. The Roxy Dinner Show does something different — it lets you taste it first, then watch it unfold on stage. You sit down to an international menu where every dish pulls from a different region: tuna cured with goat cheese and Amazon pesto, mignon with jabuticaba sauce, caipira chicken from Minas Gerais, grilled fish in lemon-cravo, banana moqueca from the Northeast. Four main courses to choose from, three desserts. The kitchen isn't trying to be clever; it's trying to be honest about what Brazil tastes like across its own geography.

The show "Aquele Abraço" starts after you've eaten, and it's the part that justifies the whole evening. Music, dance, and cultural storytelling move through the room — not a Vegas revue, but something that feels rooted in actual Brazilian tradition. The venue itself sits in the heart of Rio's nightlife, and TIME magazine named it one of the best places in the world in 2025, which means the room has a certain energy the moment you walk in. Wheelchair accessible, service animals welcome, and they'll seat infants on an adult's lap if needed.

One practical thing: you can shoot photos and short videos on your phone for personal use, but professional cameras, tripods, GoPros and stabilizers aren't allowed — the team will ask you to stop if they see them. It's not a restriction that matters for most people, but it's worth knowing upfront. Vegan options exist across the menu if you need them, and public transportation gets you there without a car.

Is this one for you?Right for anyone who wants a full evening — dinner and live performance — without piecing together a restaurant reservation and a separate show, and who's curious about how Brazil's regional cooking actually tastes rather than how it photographs.
