The story
Tiara is the contemporary restaurant at the heart of D’PRAÇA, a new gathering place installed in a historic house in the center of Ipanema, Rio de Janeiro. The space is a careful restoration where original architecture and thoughtful design create an atmosphere that is both welcoming and vibrant. The restaurant’s philosophy centers on freedom—the freedom to create your own experience, move between different environments, and savor each moment at your own pace.
The house itself connects to several distinct atmospheres: two bars spread across the ground and second floors, dining rooms that breathe the history of the building, and a terrace open to the square, where Ipanema reveals its most light, beautiful, and lively side. On the iconic sidewalk of the address, the neighborhood’s energy blends into the D’PRAÇA experience.
The gastronomy at Tiara is a curated expression of the BFW Group, combining repertoire, sensitivity, and precise execution. The focus is on contemporary, light, and flavorful dishes—created to receive guests with affection and naturalness. While the menu changes with the seasons, the approach remains consistent: a dialogue between the house’s rich history and a modern, liberated approach to dining.
The beverage program is equally considered, featuring premium beers, well-executed classics, and a generous curation of more than 400 Grand Cru labels, ready to toast moments at the table.
Tiara has earned a Michelin Recommended award, a testament to its quality and the refined yet relaxed experience it offers. The restaurant’s true luxury, as the team describes it, lies in the freedom to craft your own evening—whether that means a quiet dinner in a historic salon, a cocktail at the bar, or a meal on the terrace overlooking the lively square. It is a place that welcomes, connects, and tells stories, all through the lens of contemporary Brazilian cuisine.
