Visiting the Michelin-starred Loup Restaurant in São Paulo

🎂 Celebrating My Bestie’s Birthday at São Paulo’s Top 35 Restaurant Thanks to my best friend’s birthday dinner, we finally visited this restaurant ranked among São Paulo’s top 35! The ambiance and decor are incredibly charming—perfect for dates and photo ops 📸✨. The elegant interior is divided into two zones, each creating a distinct atmosphere with thoughtful design details: Glass Ceiling Section: Features soaring ceilings, intimate candlelight, and a sophisticated vibe, ideal for cozy conversations under a soft glow 🍷. Vertical Green Wall Section: A stunning backdrop of lush greenery, paired with a sleek glass wine cabinet illuminated by staggered lighting. It’s like dining in a stylish urban jungle 🌿. 🍴 A Fusion of Italian, Spanish, and Brazilian Flavors The menu highlights Italian, Spanish, and Brazilian cuisines. The appetizers were a hit—we ordered blindly and loved every bite: think crispy empanadas stuffed with Brazilian-style beef, and zesty ceviche with a drizzle of Spanish olive oil 🥟🍋. For mains, it was a mix of wins and misses: Highlight: The Brazilian seafood paella was explosive—generous portions of shrimp, mussels, and perfectly seasoned rice, plenty for two to share 🍤🥘. Miss: The truffle risotto fell flat—creamy but under-seasoned, a letdown compared to the hype 😕. Pro tip: Stick to the Latin-inspired dishes for the best experience! 💰 Cost Breakdown: Ambiance vs. Affordability Service charge: 15% (standard for upscale dining here) Parking fee: 25 BRL per car (pricey, but typical for secure parking in the area) Per person: 200+ BRL (without drinks—add more for cocktails or wine). ⏰ Late-Night Fun with Friends The restaurant usually closes at 23:00, but on Saturdays, it stays open until 00:00! As a mom who spends 24/7 with kids, having this rare girls’ night—chatting, taking photos, and getting home late—was pure bliss. Knowing my two little ones were safe and sound with their dad, sleeping peacefully, made the night even more heartwarming. Life should be filled with these gentle, beautiful moments 💖. #SaoPauloDining #BirthdayCelebration #GirlsNightOut #TopRestaurants #BrazilianCuisine
