  1. CARNAL

    Mexican

    A Mexican gastrobar in Bairro Alto where the guacamole comes with larvae and crickets if you're feeling adventurous, and straightforward tacos al pastor if you're not. The menu runs through antojitos, tostadas, and gringas in a room that's casual enough that no one's taking notes. Tequila cocktails are the move. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a place that draws a crowd without trying too hard.
