Ilha Grande does not have a vast selection of restaurants, in fact they are about as sparse as anywhere you can go in Brazil. That being said you will be able to find some great authentic Brazilian cooking here and many Ilha Grande Hostels have close by restaurants or their own food. Enjoy the experience!
