Rubaiyat Faria Lima — Restaurant in Região Imediata de São Paulo

First of all, the meats tastes really well. But I don’t see the restaurant is really that high end (e.g. service, ambience) compared to other steakhouses but here charges you the most. You will even pay more than usual rodízios. Nobody told me about parking but was charged 25 reais on my final bill. (And even this was subjected to 13% gratuity) It took long to get the main dish even there was not a lot of people. And the most disappointing thing is about the confusion the restaurant made. Rubaiyat in Paulista area was rodízio but closed right now so me and my friends decided to come here in Faria Lima. It was because on the web page of Rubaiyat Paulista we read ‘we are closed but you can go to other Rubaiyat branches.’ However, this one was a la carte not rodízio and we didn’t expect this.

Bathroom smell terrible, flies around the kitchen and a damp ambiance. Avoid...

This is an extremely classy place, hence book in advance. Has amazing steak and excellent wine options. Preferred by gringos here cause of the steak. Do call for an expresso they serve you with a whole bunch of biscuits and sweets. Will definitely suggest this to anyone with no issue with budget. Good place for a date as well. Location is excellent too, right in the heart of Faria Lima. I am definitely going...
