one of the most famous sushi restaurant in rio is the multi-award-winner sushi leblon, where diners get some fantastic sushi and more often than not get to peek at some local celebrities - a very classy sushi restaurant with prices that reflect its food quality and reputation,  located in the affluent district of leblon.

there is usually a long wait for a table, especially on friday and saturday nights, in which the wait can be up to one hour.  the restaurant is small and becomes very crowded, so to get the best dining experience, it is best to make reservations beforehand.

the interior is classy and glamorous to match the clientele, and the food is served to perfection - most guests start with the edamame beans and the salmon sashimi, which is very popular.
