I wouldn't recommend the couvert. It's $18 for goat cheese + bacalhau + chicken liver pate (similar to foie gras) in Port wine. The whole assortment was interesting, but they have a single type of french bread which was bland. Appetizers * Cheese Salad (Salada ao queijo St Marcelin Empanado com nozes) was good, but I wouldn't get it again. The fried cheese was very interesting touch * Tartines were very good, I'd recommend. They had a thin crunchy toast base, and the toppings were lively and tasty. Dessert * Excellent place for dessert, everything we had was outstanding * The Tarte tatin was very good. The apples had a balance between firmness and softness that was extremely good. The tarte crust was thin and soft. * Café gourmand - comes with a creme brulee, chocolate mousse and a macaroon. Probably the best chocolate mousse I've ever had. The texture is amazing. They said the mousse was the main house dessert based off an 80 year old recipe.

This restaurant just goes to show that even French food can be dull and disappointing in São Paulo…read more I had gnocchi and cordeiro (lamb) here and the meal was a sorry excuse for real French (or Italian) food. The gnocchi tasted like basically nothing...just soft dough (irrespective of the fact that it had some sort of bland cheese sauce on top). Before ordering this meal I asked the chef if I could have pesto sauce on the gnocchi because I had a feeling the food might be lackluster in the flavor department. He reassured me that he would add it, however, there was no pesto to be found on the plate. I ordered the gnocchi based on his assurances, all for naught because he forgot to deliver what he promised. The lamb was okay... though it's kinda hard to mess up lamb unless you overcook it, so this is not some kind of accomplishment. Even the dessert options seemed lackluster here, and I'm a HUGE fan of sweets. My advice: skip this place and opt instead for Due Cuochi one block down.

While I've yet to be blown away, this evening's visit to Le Jazz - a French bistro that features all the trimmings you'd expect at a cozy franco café - was perfectly solid. The wall is dotted with a mix of vintage concert posters from blues and jazz greats to black and white images of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday and their cohorts. We found a solid wine and cocktail menu (we went with a garrafa -- 375ml bottle -- of Chilean Carménère) and a really terrific food menu. The Le Jazz salad was fantastic. Slices of pear punctuated by crumbles of gorgonzola and matched with crisp lettuce and bits of bacon. It was the first salad I've had that made me feel like home. The large size was big enough to split between 2 people and that's just what we did. The next (and final) dish was L'Entrecôte (a rib eye cut of steak paired with hand-cut fries and a small salad). The server never asked how I'd like it prepared (medium-rare), but the steak came cooked just that way. After 8:30pm, the rest of the neighborhood stops by and you're likely to catch a minimal wait time. Next time, I'll have to try the dessert.

Since then, the region has exploded with great lunch and dinner spots to service the growth in traffic at the nearby metro. Despite the increased competition Le Jazz is still going strong. On my most recent visit I came with a small group that had a craving for Duck A L'Orange. The tangerine twist of Le Jazz' Magret Canard did not disappoint and came with a delicious side of creamy potatoes to maximize the use of that delicious duck sauce. Also on deck and enjoyed by all were classic tartines, onion soup and creme brûlée. The Entrecôte was voted best dish of the night, and the mussels, while a bit on the heavy side (way too much cream) for my taste, were happily devoured to the last dip of a fry in oniony sauce. I still recommend this place heartily for a fun night of traditional French fare. Great for small groups with options for vegetarians as well (vegans beware the cream and cheese abounds, yum).

Their menu is impressive. Lots of good options…read more Had the Itaim pale ale. Not the best I've ever had. Ordered costela de tambaqui. A bit disappointed that it was fried not grilled. The portion was huge. Enough to share. It doesn't come with any sides and so I ordered some rice to complement it Wish they had other hot sauce options different from Tabasco. I'll certainly come back to try a different meal from their large food menu. I also had one of their burgers and it was pretty tasty. There are a lot of restaurants and bars that close on Mondays and this is one of the few that stay open all week long. Great atmosphere. The end.

The food was very good. For appetizer, we asked for "Bolinho de risoto" which was ok. For the real deal, I asked for "Medalhão ao molho mostarda", while my girlfriend asked for salmon. Both were very tasty and delicious. We asked for some soft drinks. I asked for "Soft rouge" and my girlfriend for "Soft Lychia". Both were very good. At the end, we decided not to have dessert because we were pretty satisfied, but I was surprised that they cooked a dessert with a candle on top of it, without even asking for.

I loved just about everything about La Tartine. The area where it resides, off Rua Augusta (a…read morestreet as legendary as Haight), is bustling with action. Fashionable young punks pour out of neighboring bars and restaurants - those who can't score a table sit with friends against the building façade with a shared bottle of beer between them. Just around the corner from the main street action, we found the quaint spot, La Tartine: a true bistro with café tables assembled with just enough room to squeeze as many hungry, savvy diners in its 2-story villa. When we arrived, the lady informed us there'd be a 30 minute wait. It became clear this is a frequent occurrence after she waved us to the upstairs waiting room where we could order a cocktail. Caipirinhas, beers, wine - you'll find a stocked bar offering mostly the essentials. 30 minutes ended up being much shorter and before we even got our cocktails, we were escorted to our downstairs table. The menu (all in French) is utterly petite. There were 3 specials (steak, chicken, salmon), a handful of salad choices, and a number of different quiches. Surely I went with the steak and found it cooked perfectly. The quiches stole the show however. Admittedly, quiche is the last thing I want for dinner (or perhaps at any point in the day), but I really loved their version (specifically the one with onions). Budget-friendly, happily busy, and located around lots to do, I'll certainly be back to La Tartine.

The most important thing to know is that it's good to get there early - say 8:00/8:30 - after which the waiting list for a table builds up. Provided you go straight there after watching a 6 p.m. movie, it's a great place to talk about the film over a bottle of wine while you wait for your food.
