Sao Paulo offers a wide variety in cuisine choices. Italian seems to be one of the more popular, while many places still offer the traditional Brazilian specialties. From high-end dining to funky-eclectic, there is a place that will not only feed your cravings for food, but also your atmosphere desires.

Fine Dining
A Figueira Rubaiyat’s is a well-rated restaurant in Sao Paulo that serves a bit of everything. Despite being a high-end restaurant you get a large amount of food for your money and a dessert buffet is included. Many of the meats that are offered on the menu, including the chicken, beef and pork, are "homegrown" at the owners ranch. This almost guarantees a fresh, tender cut of meat with your meal. -
Moderate Dining
If you are in the mood for Italian cuisine, try Famiglia Mancini. There are over thirty different sauces you can choose from when picking your pasta. The plates serve at least two and sometimes three people, so bring your family or a hearty appetite! -
