With so many restaurants in the area offering Mediterranean food, it can be confusing to know where…read moreto eat. I'd read about Baruk on prior trips to Sao Paulo, but always ended up deciding to eat other places. I wish I'd been here earlier! My co-worker and I went twice during my business trip, and I almost never go to the same restaurant twice during a trip! We ordered the rodizio, which included small plates of many of the dishes they offer. It was a great chance to try a lot of different things and only get refills on the items you like best. Of course, I wanted refills on almost everything! :) They have an English menu, so it made ordering easier despite the staff speaking very little English. They were patient with us and we were able to communicate without any issues, so if you don't speak Portuguese you can still enjoy this restaurant. Everything was fresh, seasoned well, and incredibly tasty. We enjoyed it so much that we both agreed we wanted Baruk to be the restaurant we visited on our last night in Sao Paulo. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to the area so I can go back!

The bread comes out hot and is so fresh! I ordered tabouli, chicken kabob, and grape leaves and was very pleased.

French is widely spoken, across many countries in the world. But, how would I (or you?) ever figure…read moreout that this french-named restaurant is a lebanese oasis? Widespread in Brazil as arabic food, lebanese food is even tastier in this restaurant that also offers an all-you-can-eat version. A friend of mine was impressed to see how much the recipes there look like the ones he uses to have back at his home country. I'm a big fan of starters, and I could probably make my way through the meal here only with them (as I've done a couple of times), so that's my suggestion. Grab at least one puff pastry sfiha (on the warm side) and some raw kibbeh (if you're into it). If you'd prefer to take the usual step ahead, go for the kafta.

My husband and I load up on those with sides of hummus, and we are happy campers for the night. There have been many Sundays that we stayed in dedicating to watching football (NFL) that was catered sole by Arabie. The food always arrived in under 45 minutes, and it was always fresh and hot. Any time my husband asks me if I want takeout, this is my go-to.

The salad was fresh but full of raw onion which is not my thing but the dressing was tasty as was the crumbly white cheese. No one was in the restaurant and the owner actually asked us just to do takeout. He said they only really serve lunch in their small space and at night they mostly deliver. With all of the Turkish/Arabic restaurants in the area, this one doesn't do much to stand out.

Merhaba! The lunch…read morebuffet has some of the finest examples of Turkish cuisine. Succulent, deeply marinated chicken kebab. Moist kofta. Delicious kibbe and falafel. Then there is cig kofte--a Turkish spin on steak tartare, and some of the most delectable dolma I have ever tasted. The staples of babaganoush, hummus, tabouleh and salads were spot on. As were the roasted vegetables. The Pulau (rice) was spot on. Baklava and other instagrammable pastries were on show. The stuffed peppers were yummy. The entree that I could not get enough of was the moussaka. Whereas the Greek version is often mild and homogeneous, this Turkish version is much louder in flavors and punchier. Did not get to all of the items on the spread--too many mind blowing options! Get a plate and pay by weight. Or go for the buffet if you can't restrain yourself...like me. Teşekkür ederim.

Tried the salmon kibe cru and capir-sake da romã : really tasty although the former is only a weekend special. The warm pita bread that accompanies the kibe is nice. It's not a cheap place so definitely use Grubster to get your booking done ! P.S. - Valet parking is available but pricey at R$ 25

The deserts are also delicious People that work there is attentive , knowledgeable and . I don't give 5 stars because the place needs a serious revamp, specially the toilets, that one should actually avoid.
