PARIS 6 - Matriz Classique — Restaurant in Região Imediata de São Paulo

• DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE!!! * The place LOOKS nice, but I would never go back there for their food. EVER. This is the biggest scam ever. I am visiting Brazil after 2 years and I just wanted to enjoy good food, but all my girlfriend and I got was mediocre food at best. The salad was disgusting, the leaves and veggies were old and soggy. The salmon was overcooked and very dry, with a pathetic "mostard sauce" on top... clearly not home made and very unprofessional. The risotto was tasteless, and the aligot's consistency was completely wrong. Then let's move on to the worst part - the COQ AU VIN. This is a very traditional french recipe where chicken is cooked in wine. We asked if they could make it without bacon, waiter said yes. He brings a completely dry and sauce-less chicken, with the wine sauce ON THE SIDE, and tells us he "removed the bacon" by removing the sauce entirely. WHAT??? So this means they don't actually cook the chicken in wine... they just drip that horrible sauce on top AFTER they cook it!!!! This is...

We came to this restaurant on Sunday, February 20-2022 for lunch. As we had a stop over in São Paulo

The atmosphere was nice 👍

We were received well 👍

Our waiter ( Anderson ) , he seems to know a little English , very good server 👍

There were 4 of us for lunch, everyone’s order came and my order came with a sauce ( I ordered it without sauce ). It was returned and came back very quickly corrected. 👍 The presentation of the food is good. 👍

The orders take awhile to receive , especially when you order desert. As a tourist you have to be careful when ordering a desert. I’m a German Canadian and ordered the Black Forest cake. I received a chocolate cake , smothered in milk chocolate with two cherries on top. This is not Blackforest cake.👎🏻

I have attached a picture of what a German Blackforest Cake looks like.

The washrooms are clean 👍

We will definitely come back when we have another stop over in São Paulo. To see how there dinner...

Did I go to the same place? Mother of god this was disappointing. No privacy to talk-tables are so close you could sit on a strangers lap. Waiters had no allergen information and didn't even offer to find out from the kitchen (fair few of them didn't seem to even want to be there.) We weren't given a drinks menu and were told the only coeliac friendly option was gluten free risotto. When we asked if any of the steaks could come without a sauce so we could eat them we were told no. PARIS 6 is it really that hard to not add a sauce? Or spread the tables out a bit more? (And before anyone asks yes, we all spoke Portuguese.) The problem wasn't a language barrier. Maybe we caught them on a bad night but still. P.S We'd rather get sick from contamination than eat the coeliac friendly option....
