    I would say 4.3 :) Perfect location, clean, nice decorations, well organized menus, good service, nice staffs, no long waiting time, fair price setting (maybe a bit more expensive than other places in the neighborhood/centro but no complaint) My carrot cake with chocolate was amazing! A slice was big and the cake itself was surprisingly very moist and yummy! Not super sweet but just tasty !!! I could eat five more slices🤣 My cappuccino came with a cute little dog art on it😘 very lovely to see it ! Just one thing to say..... On the button of the cup, there was still powder left, i needed to blend a bit. Nothing more. I def come back ! Next time i will try their red velvet cookies, which looked very good 😊

    Tasteful cakes and good service. The interior is really special.

    Located near the São Bento Monastery and Paulistano Mercado Municipal, Café Girondino references São Paulo’s European heritage with a broad range of Food and Beverage amidst spacious confines renovated in 1998 but dating back decades prior. Covering three stories in its current iteration, the ground floor open by 07h30 on weekdays and 08h00 on weekends to serve guests a collection of Coffees, Sweets and Snacks, it is above that diners will find antiques and photographs from days prior flanking tables arranged for lunch or dinner. A bustling space popular amongst locals as well as tourists, this diner’s lack of Portuguese-fluency surmounted by menus translated to English, it was after perusing display cases that an order was placed, the larger-than-average Cheese Bread soft and gooey like a Gougere while Café Girondino’s Bolinho de Bacalhau was unfortunately far too greasy around the otherwise enjoyable center of Potatoes, Herbs and Fish. Saving Coffee for Dessert, the “BRAVO” Espresso still piping hot but a bit too bitter without Sugar, it would be difficult to say whether any Carrot can be tasted in Orange Cake covered in Chocolate Frosting while Banana Cake better matches preconceived notions, though both were plenty moist and fairly priced.

    Lovely place. It's a cafe, bar and restaurant in the old part of the city. Seeped in class and tradition. Well worth a visit. The steak was amazing. The caipirinhas were to die for!

    Earsplitting loud and unpleasant rock music being played in the street a few meters from an entrance to the cafeteria, and they won’t close the door. This was not permitted at Guantanamo under George W Bush.

  • 5/5 Fabio T. 10 months ago on Google • 48 reviews
    It's a nice, almost century old, São Paulo (Paulistano) old downtown style traditional restaurant. You will feel like transported to the early 20th century. Tables are dressed with good quality clean towels, silky fabric napkins, fine cutlery. The dishes are well server and deliciously prepared... But don't expect exotic or "gourmet" style... Only good old traditional "Paulistano" food carefully made, and served by well dressed on white jackets, polite and formal waiters. It's really a nice experience well fitted to the very traditional place where it's located... In the heart of old downtown of Sao Paulo.

    Had a proper pot of tea and the slice of lemon cheesecake was wonderful

  • 4/5 William P. 3 years ago on Google • 36 reviews
    Great place to lunch or take a coffee and dessert. It is a little expensive, but worth every penny. Good point, during the COVID19 pandemic, they are taking care measurements. Bad point, menu has been shrinked given client deduction. Excellent service. Sparkling clean.

    Nice place in São Paulo downtown to fast breakfast, beers and food. Very old and traditional place.

  • 5/5 Alexandre L. 8 years ago on Google • 14 reviews
    It's a nice vintage place to have dessert or coffee. If you want to stay for a while, they do serve breakfast and lunch.

  • 5/5 Danny J. 7 years ago on Google
    Great location. Elegant cafe with reasonably priced options. Great sandwiches, salgados and coffee. One of my favorite cafes in the center of São Paulo

  • 5/5 Norberto A. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Incredible restaurant, the service is excellent, the Minas Gerais cheese snack is the cheese bread, going with the family is very good. (Original) Restaurante incrível, o atendimento é excelente, o lanche de queijo mineiro muito é o pão de queijo, ir com a família é muito bom.

  • 5/5 Nathália D. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Practically a São Paulo heritage. Go there if only to have a cup of coffee. But if you want more, have lunch, dinner, desserts and more! (Original) Um patrimônio paulistano praticamente. Vá lá nem que seja apenas para tomar um cafezinho. Mas se quiser mais, tem almoço, jantar, sobremesas e muito mais!

  • 4/5 Celina C. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It's worth the visit. Despite having a restaurant on the first floor, we chose to stay on the ground floor, where we drink beer and eat patty and coxinha. Everything was very good. From the menu, we see that there is a very wide variety of dishes and snacks with average prices. The place is really cool, a journey through time, with its antique furniture, pink marble countertops and decor with pieces that remind us of the last century. Friendly service and, as we visited on a Sunday, there were several free tables. Unfortunately, this downtown area is very degraded ... (Original) Vale a pena a visita. Apesar de contar com restaurante no primeiro andar, optamos por ficar no térreo, onde tomamos chopp e comemos empada e coxinha. Estava tudo muito bom. Pelo cardápio, observamos que há uma variedade muito grande de pratos e lanches com preços médios. O local é bem legal, uma viagem no tempo, com seu mobiliário antigo, bancadas de mármore rosa e decoração com peças que nos remetem ao século passado. Atendimento cordial e, como visitamos em um domingo, havia várias mesas livres. Infelizmente, essa região do centro está bem degradada...

    (Translated by Google) I thought the coffee was good, but it was not "perfect"; the espresso crema was flawed and sparse. For the reputation of the house, he expected perfection in the café. I will be back to confirm or modify this first impression. (Original) Achei o café bom, mas não estava "perfeito"; a crema do expresso era falha e rala. Pela reputação da casa, esperava a perfeição no café. Voltarei para confirmar ou modificar esta primeira impressão.

  • 4/5 aline b. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The food is very good. The however is for the price that is quite "salty" and for the lack of accompaniment of the dishes ... a meat can be accompanied by salad OR fries. In my opinion for the amount charged, having a rice or vinaigrette would support and compose the dish more adequately. The service is great. (Original) A comida é muito boa. O porém fica para o preço que é bastante "salgado" e para a falta de acompanhamento dos pratos... uma carne pode ser acompanhada de salada OU fritas. Na minha opinião pelo valor cobrado, ter um arroz ou vinagrete já sustentaria e comporia mais adequadamente o prato. O atendimento é ótimo.

    (Translated by Google) Expensive coffee, rude waiter. The manager and the other girls are polite. Only go if you want to spend money and take the fancy of rich. The atmosphere is cool, reminiscent of times gone by, a time travel for tourists. I have no plans to return, I do not recommend it. (Original) Café caro, garçom mal educado. O gerente e as outras meninas são educadas. Só vá se quiser gastar dinheiro e leve a fantasia de rico. O ambiente é legal, remete à tempos passados, uma viagem no tempo para turistas.

    O atendimento é excelente e o lugar agradável. Pedimos 2 doces: uma banofe e um brownie. A banoffe estava boa porém o brownie estava mãos para uma torta de chocolate bem massuda/farinheira. O preço é alto e só a banoffe fez juz ao preço. Apesar disso a experiência foi positiva e voltaria!

  • 4/5 FERNANDO ANTONIO DE C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Impeccable service. The palm heart or chicken tart has one of the best pastas I have ever tasted and, along with the coffee, it is not easy. The Swit pie, I think it is, to finish off is unforgettable. (Original) Atendimento impecável. A tortinha palmito ou frango tem uma das melhores massas que já provei e junto com o cafezinho não é mole não. A torta Swit pie, acho que é assim, pra arrematar é inesquecível.

😐 The place looks cool, the decoration is very nice, the live music upstairs was good and the service was impeccable. Unfortunately the food wasn't too good compared to the other coco bambu I've been. Pasta was delicious but the rice with shrimp was cold and the potatoes all stuck together. I ordered...
