    Unless you are training for a food eating competition, you will feel like you didn't get your…read moremoney's worth. The concept is clear by reading other reviews, it's an all you can eat buffet. The place may look sketchy from the outside as there's no "store front"; it's on the second floor of a building and it's in downtown SP, which as a native, I can attest isn't the best area and can feel a bit unsafe. So dont't go exploring at 10pm. ;) The food is great and fresh, service was also excellent in terms of kindness and attentiveness. The manager, Maria, was very sweet and hands-on, taking drink orders and making sure we were happy. At the end, in typical brazilian style, she gave us hugs and invited us to come back. The reason I'm not giving it 5-stars is because 1) staff could use further training as far as communicating and explaining that for instance, we could order miso soups, or temakis (handrolls); and 2) at $124 reais per person plus drinks, it feels expensive, despite the good quality and wide variety of options. Therefore, unless you feel like eating until you pass out, I would perhaps consider other options at this price.

    I had Sushi from the back ally in Japan and also in the US. However I was very disappointed with…read morethe Sushi I had so far in Sao Paulo. First of all, the sushi here has a very limited selection. Everything tasted like soy sauce and sesame. There are quite a few dishes I am pretty sure it was Indo/Chinese rather than Japanese. I can't say it is bad, but I definitely had better. I think every country or culture has its own interpretation of ethnic food. For me, this place was over priced R$ 80 and was not satisfying.

    Capim Santo offers lunch buffet and I'm so glad I tried it. It isn't cheap. You are looking at…read more$25-30 with a drink but it was worth it. The interior is beautiful and just looking at how the buffet is set up, I was so excited. The vegetable station was so colorful and delicious. The main table had bread, made to order pasta, stew and fish. There was no dessert at buffet tables unfortunately, but you can order for an extra charge. The service was great too especially by those male waiters and hosts. Major credit cards accepted. If you are not familiar with Brazilian food and want to try out everything, this lunch buffet is a great place to start!

    We stopped by Capim Santo for lunch though it was quite the journey getting there. This Brazilian…read morerestaurant, with a celebrated chef, used to be located in a different location. One which still shows up on Google. We Ubered to the old location and spent a while trying to find a restaurant that is no longer more. My Brazil guidebook touched on their lunch buffet. That is no more at the new location either. The current location is inside a museum. You have to pay admission to the museum to dine at the restaurant. Even if you have no interest in checking out the museum. Safe to say, we were off to a rocky start. Things did turn around magically, however. Admission to the museum pays to help preserve the Amazon. At least our money was going to a good cause. Sustainability is a theme here as you see sustainable materials being used throughout the restaurant. We were seated on the lovely patio which is made to recreate the Amazon with a lot of greenery and trees. I started off with a fresh juice as I looked over the menu. I ordered the pork cutlet with tomato risotto. It may have been my favorite dish on my Brazil trip. The pork was succulent and flavorful. The risotto mirrored it as the fresh tomatoes and combination of ingredients made it arguably the best risotto I've ever had. Service was good. Capim Santo is not cheap. And we ran into a couple of frustrating roadblocks. But with that being said, I can't fail to applaud the restaurant for the quality of its food and the lovely surroundings.
