The chef was very nice and presented us with the complimentary dish which I believe was the Torresmo. The drinks are amazing and that smoke meat platter was pork and onions which was super tender and juicy. The recommendations from the server to try are the "Baião-De-Dois which is composed of rice beans. Update the food is inspired from NE Brazil which has an amazing presentation. The food is made with love and has a very home feel. The medium dish serves 3-4 people with ease. A definite must try if you are in São Paolo. Eu originalmente pensei que este era um tipo de restaurante mexicano pela decoração, mas não há pratos que sugeriria que a equipe é de pessoas amigáveis, mas não fala muito inglês. O chef foi muito legal e nos apresentou o prato de cortesia que acredito ser o Torresmo. As bebidas são incríveis e aquele prato de carne defumada era carne de porco e cebola, que estava super macia e suculenta. As recomendações do servidor para experimentar são o "Baião-De-Dois, que é composto de feijão de arroz. Atualize a comida é inspirada no NE Brasil, que tem uma apresentação incrível. A comida é feita com amor e tem uma sensação muito caseira. O prato médio serve 3-4 pessoas com facilidade. Definitivamente deve tentar se você estiver em São Paolo.

Somewhere on a dimly-lit street is a door that opens into this wonderful cocktail bar. This bar had…read morealways been highly recommended by my 2 contain-experts - Fabio S. & Rodrigo R. - so when Yelp organised a cocktail night there, I was game for it and oh boy ! the place doesn't disappoint when it comes to the quality of cocktails and the price they charge for it - when it comes to cocktails São Paulo has a lot of of varying qualities - Boca excels at what they serve and for the price they charge for it. The drinks at Boca are well prepared, with good quality alcohol (not top shelf but quite good) - they have a good classic cocktail list but what stands out is this drink called "macunaima" served in small glass, costing R$ 8.00, made with a mix of Brazilian Cachaça, Fernet-Branca liquor & Lime - its a great drink and certainly one of the fastest ways to tipsy land...lol ! The other classics at Boca like Negroni, Martini, Manhattan etc are all worth a try. Most of these drinks are in the R$ 21.00 - R$ 24.00 price range and, once again, very well made. The ambient at Boca is very laid back - they have 3 people at the bar (2 of them are co-owners) and a decently functioning kitchen for the snacks - they are apparently very popular for their Bulova (haven't tired it) but whatever other snacks I have eaten, from the very balanced spicy 'acelga', to the sweet potato fries and the crispy pork rinds - it all works very well, and once again, good value for money. The place is quite busy, they have 2 floors, with a free pool table on the top floor - the service is okay but the decor and charm of the place really make it once of the best places in São Paulo for cocktails...it's not there at the level of Frank Bar but its certainly among my top 5 places to get a drink. There are definitely going to be several more visits to Boca de Ouro !

Awesome bar tucked away in a quiet street of Vila Madelana. Serving killer cocktails and a wide…read moreselection of beer you can't go wrong. They are famous for their crumbed eggs but I would go out for the pork rinds. And to top it off there's free pool! But get there early as the seats go fast.
