Stylish rooftop spot for ultra-thin pizzas, pastas, and cocktails with vegetarian and vegan breadth; service can be slow and pizzas divide opinion on thinness.
Why it gets a B+ for overall quality
Vícios à Mesa delivers solid neighborhood dining with exceptional rooftop-courtyard ambiance and strong food quality anchored by ultra-thin pizzas and house-made tiramisu. However, variable seasoning in pastas and occasional service lapses prevent grade A territory. The hidden-gem location and loyal following make it worth seeking out, though expect occasional inconsistency at peak times.
Restaurant Summary
Hidden above the bustle near the Coliseu, the room feels retro and stylish with a courtyard rooftop vibe. Guests talk about paper-thin pizzas and a chill soundtrack, though waits can stretch. One diner shared, "The server fixed a mix-up with grace," while others noted slow pacing at peak times. The cooking leans Italian-inspired comfort with playful twists—think ultra-thin crust pies, house ricotta, pastas, and a well-loved tiramisu. Seasoning is generally balanced, but a few reviews found vegan lasagna or pasta a touch bland. If you like cracker-crisp bases and creative toppings, this is your sweet spot. For families, pizzas, simple spaghetti, pancakes, and scrambled eggs make it workable. There is no explicit kids menu, but choices are kid-friendly by nature. Portions run light due to the thin bases, so consider starters or dessert if sharing with little ones.
