I went to this restaurant while in Rio about a year and a half ago (2007), really enjoyed the food, met the lovely owners (friends of the locals I was visiting) and then promptly forgot the name of the place to write a review.
I heartily recommend this restaurant - one of the best in Rio (in Botofogo) but also one of the most laid-back and, having just looked on their website, it seems to be winning lots of foodie prizes.

This is a fantastic north African teahouse right in the middle of the old town. Not particularly French or Nicois, it's a great location to escape the madness of the promenade on a Sunday or old dears carrying their minuscule dogs (most days).
You sit on cushions in one of the dimly-lit rooms and choose from a huge selection of teas and juices.
Love this place...
