"Jorge Amado sabia das coisas ao frequentar o Caxixi! Experimentei o famoso "Malassado" e foi uma experiência apaixonante. O tempero, a textura e a qualidade dos ingredientes mostram o verdadeiro sabor da comida raiz, feita com carinho e tradição. O atendimento também merece destaque: desde a recepção até o final da refeição, fui tratado com muita atenção e simpatia. Recomendo sem hesitar para quem busca comida de verdade, com alma e história!"

"Uma experiência gastronômica excelente no centro de Salvador. Boa opção para quem quiser viver uma atmosfera do entorno popular, típica do Largo 2 de Julho, saboreando uma cerveja gelada e os excelentes pratos ou sanduíches. Ja experimentei os dois e recomendo. Desculpem pelo pudim. Estava muito bom e.nem deu tempo de fotografar."

"Um restaurante simples e histórico. Equipe simpática e solícita, a começar pelo dono, que foi quem nos recepcionou. Pedimos o malassado. Apesar de não gostarmos muito de comida cozida, nos surpreendeu. Os pedaços de torresmo dão um gosto a mais e o feijão é, simplesmente, muito gostoso e fresquinho. O pudim é farto e bem gostoso. A cerveja é gelada e muito barata (comparado a outros restaurantes de Salvador). Ruim achar vaga para estacionar próximo."

"The bar is ok. I just found one of the staff a bit rude. He wasn't in the mood to serve us. But in general the other staff was very friendly and very helpful."

"Gosta de boteco? Esse é o lugar. Balcão maravilhoso. Cerveja gelada e diversidade de cachaças e aperitivos. O sanduíche de pernil com queijo Reino e o malassado são obrigatórios. Funciona também como restaurante. Tudo é muito bom."

"Com certeza será mais um restaurante onde farei minhas refeições. Um bar/restaurante que te transporta para o universo dos botecos cariocas e paulistas, porém sem sair de Salvador. Impossível não sentar no balcão e pedir uma cachaça ou cerveja e um petisco. E o mais importante é saborear as delícias do cardápio. A comida não demora para sair, vem na temperatura certa e muito saborosa. Muitas porções do cardápio são para duas pessoas, porém tem pratos que 3 ou 4 pessoas conseguem comer, como por exemplo a moqueca de peixe. Em relação ao ambiente acho que deveria tem uma ventilação melhor. Os preços são acessíveis, nada de absurdo! Um lugar que vale muito conhecer."
