When you're considered the 11th best pizza in the world and number one in Latin America, the…read moreexpectations are sky high. Did Leggera Pizza Napoletana live up to the hype? Not even close. Don't get me wrong... their pizza is pretty good. But "pretty good" is a far cry from exceptional. We ordered six pies - their award-winning Margherita Verace, the Carciofini, Signorina Iamm'Ia, Carpricciosa, La Divina Commedia, and their version of the four-cheese pizza, called Quatro Formaggi Alle Erbe. In typical Neapolitan fashion, they serve 12-inch pizzas with thin and crispy crusts and well-balanced toppings. It was all standard fare; nice but far from memorable. Nothing to write home about. We also tried many of their desserts, including the Tiramisu, Cannoli, and Semifreddo. It was all average at best. On the bright side, the dinner was fairly inexpensive; we spent 740 Reais for dinner for six (6 pizzas, 4 desserts, no alcohol). In summary, Leggera Pizza Napoletana is NOT the 11th best pizza in the world. Nor are they the best in Latin America. We expected to be dazzled, so it was all a big letdown.

Here is the breakdown: PIZZA- one star I have had multiple flavors and not even one disappointed me. I even ate the crust, did not feel heavy and it is prepared at the right temperature giving that correct burn on the texture needed for the pizza. SERVICE- one star Very friendly and attentive staff. With great sense of urgency DECOR/ AMBIaNCE- one star Very classy casual spot to come with friends and family. Very nice feel to it. But definitely make reservations. It gets busy very fast. WOW FACTOR- one star Best pizza in Brasil in my opinion. Nicely prepared and always that fresh feel to it. OVERALL- one star Had a great time there. A must every time I'm there

But coming here for the bday dinner before drunkenly Karaoke'ing in Liberdade was one (or two) of the best decisions during this trip. The language barrier was not too overbearing, but we had been in the country a few days at this point, so we knew a few key words to get us going, also the guy that greeted us at the front (whom was very well dressed might I add) was super nice and helpful in ensuring we had everything we needed for an amazing dining experience. The Caprisi salad: Delicious. The Bruschetta: Awesome. The Pizzas: Phenominal! I had no idea Brazil was so big on pizza, they're everywhere! Something this pizza-lover was very happy to find out. Aside from the exquisitely delectable food offerings, the decor was one of the coolest restaurants I've ever been in. There is this exotic, outdoorsy - garden feel to it (it IS an indoor joint tho) truly a beautiful space. I dream of returning to Brazil one day and hopefully this amazing restaurant will still be around to help me relive that beautiful, culinary smorgasbord we experienced the first time around.

Combine that with positive Yelp reviews and we were set. We Ubered over in the late evening. I was expecting your typical, casual pizza joint and I was surprised to see that Carlos Pizza is a lot more elegant than that. There's dim lighting, sophistication . . . it's the type of place that makes for a good date spot. We sat out on their front patio. After ordering a Brazilian beer, I decided to go with the Margherita pizza. Basic I know, especially since Carlos Pizza has a large selection of specialty pies. We're talking 20 or so. But hey, Margherita pizza is a classic. The san marzano tomatoes, the buffalo mozzarella, Marzano, and the basil . . . simple yet a match made in heaven. And Carlos Pizza does it well. I have been to Italy and the pizza here is in line with authentic Italian pizza. Service was standard. I'd return!

Live piano and bass player add to the ambience. Noise level low Food- was able to get a large 1/2 and 1/2 pizza with eggplant and mushroom. Disclaimer - Americans like bold flavors so this pizza may be the best in São Paulo but the dough lacked salt and toppings lacked flavor for my American taste buds. For example, shiitake mushrooms were added as-is rather than a sautee with herbs and a bit of carmelization. Two options with crust: thin or traditional (meaning 1" thick! as shown by waiter). Still, 8/10 for pizza.

Originally opened in 2017, additional locations sporting Italian ovens capable of maintaining consistent internal temperatures of 480 degrees Celsius (896 Fahrenheit) soon to follow, it is along Rua dos Pinheiros that guests can find Pies built on slowly fermented Dough with toppings ranging from Italian Tomatoes and Buffalo Mozzarella to local Linguica. Built to be hip, a torrential downpour on Sunday afternoon finding two stories of concrete and graffiti largely empty, it was after perusing the options that Pizza, Dessert and Water were chosen, the entire order tallying under $10USD and ready in less than five minutes. Using all natural Ingredients and cold fermentation, the latter yielding Crust that crackles to the tooth but offers a bit of stretch, it is on Bráz's eponymous Pie that diners will find Sauce, Mozz, Garlic and Zucchini, a flavor not unlike Margherita coming through early but then dissipating with a hint of smoke. Easily finishing a whole Pie, and holding off on another to save room for lunch after, it was into a small cup of Pudding that spoon was plunged next, the lack of Booze made up for by bitter Espresso that finds its foil in Cream and Cocoa as Ladyfingers are virtually nonexistent.

Talvez ele estivesse chateado por não ter tido a chance de me vender uma sobremesa? Sei lá... mas dizer "Conta, conta, conta!" (numa paródia do meu inglês?) em voz alta e rir com os outros garçons... Eu entendo. A maioria dos seus clientes também é velha como você e não tem nada para fazer a não ser ficar sentada a noite toda se achando chique, mas tinha mosquito demais no seu restaurante e eu estava cansada de ser picada. (Muitos insetos, sério mesmo) Honestamente, os funcionários da La Braciera são muito simpáticos e genuínos, e a pizza é mais criativa, mais saborosa e mais barata. E eles não zombam dos clientes lá, o que também é um ponto positivo.
