A must stop for a dining experience in São Paulo!!!…read more If you enjoy Italian cuisine this is the place to be. Famiglia Mancini is a family owned corner that offers about 5 themed restaurants where you may dine in indoors or outdoors depending on your preference. You will be able to get pizza, pasta, seafood, full course meals and even burgers. I would definitely recommend a reservation to be safe as all the restaurants are busy during peak hours and it may be difficult to get a table. They sell wine by the bottle (even have a tiny bottle with a one glass serving). Service is good, they're friendly and help with suggestions, just be sure to be ready for at least a 30min wait for food. A must go! I had the Alfredo spaghetti with shrimp and bacon and i would love to have it again.

MUST GO at least once…read more We stayed at the bar area (which has a R$35 fee per person) for the sunset. It was gorgeous, definitely the best view in São Paulo. WORTH IT. Everything is overpriced but as long as you know where you're getting yourself into it, you're fine! I had a soda, my fiancé had a beer and we shared an appetizer and it was around R$140,00.

Excellent service. Great view. Romantic setting. A nice place to experience a view of São Paulo!…read moreMost of the food was good. I was unable to eat my order which was linguine with Sicilian lemon sauce and shrimp. I found it a very strange dish, especially for the price. There was a huge bowl of pasta and that with the sauce tasted fine. But the shrimp is what really ruined the dish for me. I did not understand the arrangement which was kind of messy considering where we were, and there was only one large shrimp with tail on and several tiny shrimp that were so over cooked and dry it was not pleasing at all. The staff noticed I could not eat the food and asked me so I told them the problem. They offered to make me another plate but the rest of the party had already finished. They offered me a dessert of my own voice so I did take that and ordered a cappuccino. Everyone else chose a dessert as well and was enjoyed by all and I really enjoyed my cappuccino. They did not charge the meal for me and gave me the dessert complimentary also. My recommendation is it is very worth going for the experience. My dish was the only disappointing one. I would definitely go back. Also, don't expect extremely fast service. This is a romantic setting and I feel you should take your time and enjoy the wait with those you are enjoying a meal with.

Our group of 14 made a reservation for a Thursday night around 8pm but we trickled in slowly until…read more8:15 without a problem. We ordered four of their massive pasta plates - meat ravioli with tomato sauce, a stuffed cheese pasta that I didn't recognize with tomato sauce, penne parisienne, and tagliatelle bolognese. Bread basket was nothing to write home about but came with two interesting spreads - both anchovy/sardine based. Tasty if you're into that but otherwise stick to the butter. Ordering was easy and our pasta was served quickly. Everything was family style but our waiter portioned the pastas onto each plate (which spared us splattering sauces all over the table and ourselves; much appreciated!). The ravioli were a little bit of a miss - too thick with too little filling but still tasty. Bolognese was meaty and well balanced while the tagliatelle was al dente. Penne parisienne was not to my tastes (very creamy/cheesy with brasilian sliced ham and peas) but it was loved by all my brasilian friends. My surprise favorite was the stuffed envelope type pasta that I couldn't get the name of. I'm not sure where it ranks on the Italian food scale for Brasil/São Paulo (tasted like 3 stars to me) but the service was efficient and accommodating of our large group. They split the bill 14 ways without a problem and we all had our fill for about 35R$ including tax/gratuity. Atmosphere was classy but the clientele was mixed - families with young children, young couples, and older folks on a date night.

You can see Pasquale usually around at night roaming his restaurant and sitting randomly with clients which is a good thing. I had the lentil with meet soup but is more like a stew but is good.

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.

Oh holy sweet goodness that is every bit of this place, thank you for existing!…read more Celebrating my 30th birthday in Brazil during the 2014 World Cup was a thing in itself (jealous?) 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.
