I can't find any complaints with this place other than it is very very busy! It takes over 15…read moreminutes to get somebody to pay attention to you, despite there being a buzzer on your table, which apparently means nothing! Haha. It's like being in a bustling diner/ deli/ market, the black and white checkered floors reminiscent of an 80's diner! The food is largely Italian style and the pasta tastes fresh and local made. Mainly tagliatelle, which is my preferred pasta, so I am very biased there! The people are very warm and friendly as I have found people in São Paulo and in Argentina to be! I just wish I could take the Latin America warmth and friendliness and sprinkle a lot of it in Connecticut, liberally!!!

American... First time in Brasil. 3 minute walk from our ABnB.... The food is coming out fresh all…read moreday long. Nothing disappointed. Tarts were top notch, pastry similar to kolaches were amazing. Pizza looked perfect. Loved the new experience of serving. Every person who enters the door has to take a plastic item with a bar code and QR code on it. I asked for an item and an employee would get the item I asked for and scan it to my bar code issued at the door. Every item gets tallied up and you pay as you exit. After paying the plastic item with a bar code and QR code is used to let you out the exit. The atmosphere is welcoming and they were kind to my wife and I who speak no Portuguese. BONUS: they have lockers in the seating area that can be programmed with a personal code. Inside the locker is a signal USB port for charging your phone. It's a great way for Americans to let go of their phones long enough to build relationships with the Brazilians from the community. Falling in love with São Paulo and this Bakery has made it easy. Pro tip: Breakfast buffet on Sunday Mornings

Monday, I gave her a piece of toast and the little thump that was Santa, it was crunchy on the outside, creamy on the inside and divinely "DELICIOUS!" "I have not been!"

Just watching the staff prepare the pork is worth the price of admission... My only regret... *only* regret, is that I didn't know how to ask for more pork skin on my sandwich...

Just grab a seat and someone will bring you a menu, order and the food will arrive quickly. I visited a couple times because it was close to where I was staying. I only tried the Lanches Pernil, once with the queijo Minas and once plain. One thing I want to highlight is the homemade hot sauce. It takes the sandwiches to the next level.
