The lunch buffet is fabulous. They have a great variety and the food is delicious. I was most impressed by the Salmon Tartar, grilled peppers, seared tuna and the small pizza slices, but everything else was just as good, but more or less not my taste. The pasta buffet also was divine. The Ravioli were the best pasta i've ever... More

Good food, variety, quantity (pasta, meat, cheeses, salads, etc), however, very expensive. It is good for dinner or for a weekend. During the lunch time on the week, too much expensive to few time. Restaurants located in the South of São Paulo. Self service, unpersonnel.

A must for food people.... lots of food, GET THE BUFFET for best value about US$28. This is an Italian restaurant with an amazing salad buffet, followed by your choice of lasana and pasta. Great choice for vegetarian people.

Located in what seems to be an old warehouse of some kind, rascal offers a great sunday brunch full of italian fare. One has to be in time (they open at noon) because by 12.30 the place is packed. vegetarians will also find enough to their liking, which is not so common in Brazil. The atmosphere is relaxed and the... More

That's all. If your visiting São Paulo don't waste your time with it. But if you are looking for something nothing special, fast and more then a sandwich this can be an option.

In the middle of the financial heart of São Paulo, Ráscal has a cool atmosphere to put the stress down and relax having a glass of wine during lunchtime or in the evening eating at a very large salad bar, slices of pizza or a pasta dish made just for you! Business or family or even to impress your couple...... More

If you have the chance - do go here. Located 3 blocks from Paulista Avenue, this restaurant is easy to walk to from the metro and easy to find. The offer a buffet for $R58 and it was one of my best meals during an 11 day stay in the country. I will go back to this restaurant!
