The gluten free spaghetti with meatballs (porpetas) is so delicious. And the fries and mandioquinha appetizers are amazing. The second time I came here, the food took a really long time to come out, but it was well worth the wait. Adorei esse restaurante vegano. Tem muitas opções sem glúten também. A batata rústica é uma delicia, e eu já voltei duas vezes pra comer o spaghetti com porpetas. A comida demorou pra sair a segunda vez que eu comi aqui, mas valeu a espera.

They have many vegan options (not all marked as such, so ask to double check your options). I like their coffee as well. I had to stop here twice during my very short stay in São Paulo. Prices are also ok. Uma excelente opção para quem está com pressa e também para quem não está. O atendimento é rápido e os lanches são muito gostosos e eles muitas opções veganas. Nem todas as opções veganas estão marcadas como tal, então fica a dica, pois isso tornaria a decisão mais fácil e rápida. O café é gostoso também. Adorei a visita ao Mate Por Favor e acabei indo duas vezes aí durante a minha curta estadia em São Paulo. Preços tbm são ok.

Excellent mate and coffee drinks, acai drinks and bowls, and a variety of traditional Brazilian snacks and desserts. The acai here was the best I had during my time in Brazil-not overly sweet, and perfect creamy texture. While I liked some of the fried snacks more than others, everything was tasty, filling, and very affordable. I also recommend the vegan truffles and cakes-excellent! All credit cards accepted. Friendly staff, and nice outdoor seating. Highly recommended!

Everything was clean and it was really empty when I went but I imagine it fills up with people during certain peak hours. The shimeji mushrooms were really good and the chick peas were seasoned really well. It would be nice if there were little labels on the foods that have gluten. I avoided anything that looked breaded or fried and didn't get sick, but it would be easier if the foods were better labeled. Comida vegana simples e gostosa! O almoço é estilo buffet e eu imagino que geralmente você paga por peso, mas esse mês estão tendo uma promoção onde você paga o quanto que você quiser. O lugar estava bem limpo e não tinham muitas pessoas comendo lá quando eu fui. Adorei o shimeji e o tempero do grão de bico. Ia ser bom se os pratos feito com glúten tivessem marcados. Eu não peguei nada que parecia que foi feito com farinha e não passei mal, mas ia ser melhor se estivesse marcado certinho para não ter que arriscar.

Perfect environment to get some work done or meet up with friends to chat over a cup of coffee. The menu is a large page front and back with a variety of food and drinks to choose from. I struggled a little because they only had menus in Portuguese (at least I think). I forgot the name of the sandwich I ordered but I believe any food on the menu is a safe choice. The servers were really nice and patient when taking our order especially since we didn't speak Portuguese. Food and drinks came in a timely manner.

Hooray for dragging your group to an all vegan restaurant!…read more Well, I wasn't THAT evil since 3 out of the of us were veg*n, so it worked out okay. Maoz is a falafel paradise! Buy a pita pocket, it gets filled up with warm falafel, and then you make your way down the line and top it with as much veggies and sauces as you can physically cram into that warm carb blanket. I bought the combo, which comes with a large falafel pita pocket, side of fries, and a drink-all for $27R. It ended up being so much food I couldn't finish it! If you want the combo, go for the junior size, which is 3 falafels, instead of 5. Or, just skip the fries since the pita is filling enough as is. You can also try it as a salad, which looked like a lot of food! The toppings bar has everything you would want with your falafel. From savory, to pickled, to spicy, to creamy toppings, they have it all. Try all the sauces as well! Just get it all! I tried the watermelon juice and it was refreshing and delicious. We never get enough fresh squeezed juice in the USA. It's not even an option. Maoz is located in a very crowded neighborhood brimming with shops and restaurants. So after we ate, we were able to explore a little bit. What a great find!

This was our favourite meal of the trip and we had some amazing ones. We were famished and so…read moreordered a lot of food, which was much more than we could handle. We ordered: -Guacamole with banana chips: this was a nice appy to start the meal, coming with very nicely seasoned guac and dehydrated banana chips. Great way to start the meal. Large portion. -Two different types of vegan quiche that were both decadent, rich and well-spiced. Great creamy texture and quite filling -Black risotto - one of the best risottos I've ever had. Very creamy, with lots of vegan mozzarella, mushrooms, pumpkin seeds, and plenty of microgreens on top. Absolutely divine. -Baião de dois (vegan). I hadn't tried one of these before, and man was it incredible. The main dish was a rice-based dish with vegan sausage, firm tofu, and veggies with a very complex flavour and wonderful textures. On the side was an incredible garlic-sauteed kale, fried banana, and a sort of polenta-like mash with hearts of palm/jackfruit(? - look up) that was sensational. Our server spoke no English, so we communicated via Google Translate. He was so kind, hospitable and friendly--told us he loved serving us at the end. Can't say enough good things about this place. You must try out Banana Verde.

Honestly, this place would be 5 stars if it wasn't for the SERVICE. I absolutely hate to identify…read morepeople but the older bald man who was our server was so nonchalant and absolutely rude. Not like outwardly aggressive type of rude but the kind of rude where he interacts like he couldn't give a damn about the table, the order, or his guests. I do not speak Portuguese but I try. I try so hard to speak Portuguese to a basic level, enough to order. He wouldn't even try to help me out. I know he didn't speak English (not his problem at all) but usually, I even asked for "agua" and he acted as if he couldn't understand me. I resorted to just pointing to items on the menu (which is fine as well) but then he acted like he could barely lean over to see/read which item I was pointing to or like having to come closer to read what I was pointing at was annoying for him. Honestly, we were so excited to come there and he just lets the air out of the room with his demeanor. One thing that wasn't his fault, the restaurant did not have NUMEROUS items that was on the menu. We ordered various items and multiple people had to select their second and third choices. Sounds small but again, when you don't speak the language (but trying your best), having to pick two and three times on the fly is not a nice experience.
