The surprise starts right at the restaurant's facade, which was inspired by Japanese architecture. Icons of Japanese culture are integrated into the McDonald's logo, and an "Instagram-worthy" lamp combines the network emblem with traditional oriental lanterns, warmly welcoming guests visitors.

The interior decoration was carefully planned to ensure the comfort of customers, with soft sofas and pleasant lighting.
For those who prefer to enjoy their meals outdoors, there is a charming Japanese garden with a small cherry tree, a symbol of love, renewal, hope and happiness. In addition, graffiti depicts cultural elements such as lanterns and the Torii, a traditional Japanese gateway.
In addition to the surrounding environment, the new unit also brings technological innovations in service. Customers will be able to choose from several options, such as self-service screens with a digital menu, a mobile application to place an order and collect it later, or direct service at the counter.
Ricardo Guedes, Vice President of Operations for the Brazil Division of Arcos Dorados, the largest company associated with McDonalds in the world and responsible for the new restaurant, highlighted the importance of honoring Japanese culture and establishing a genuine connection with the neighborhood of Freedom.
He pointed out that now residents and regulars of Liberdade will be able to count on McDonald’s at different times of the day, from breakfast to dinner.
