Rufino's — Restaurant in Região Imediata de São Paulo

Good option for seafood in São Paulo. However, I will definitely try other restaurants before coming back a second time

The couvert was very good if you like sardines. The fried sea mix was well done and not greasy, shrimps lacked more taste. We ordered the whole fish for 3 people but we were disappointed to be served pieces of fish instead of the whole thing. It was good meal but the fish was a little overcooked and the side potatoes lacked flavor. The green beans were fresh and the fish skin (our choice to order it with) were hilights. The beer selection was a major disappointment, no craft beer and therefore no one to pair beer types with the food they serve. No oisters on Monday but at least they were honest about it when I asked about it. The ambiance is pretty good with dimmed lights...

Rufino's is one of the best, if not the best, sea food restaurant in São Paulo. Frequented by stars, politicians and celebrities alike, it has a rich history of delicious food and great service.

Amongst other great dishes, the "Peixe à Rufino" stands out. Cooked with the fresh fish of the day, it's accompanied by sliced potatoes, bell peppers, onions and tomatoes, all with a rich olive oil based sauce. It's sure to please even the pickiest eaters.

Rufino's also has one of the best oyster bars in São Paulo. The oysters are fresh, plump and well prepared, for a reasonable price.

All in all, if Fish and Seafood is what you crave, you can't go wrong in Rufino's. Just make sure you are ready for the bill, which is proportional to the quality...
