Restaurante Ritz

Restaurante Ritz São Paulo presents a dish-led opening centered on its legendary bolinhos de arroz, which have defined the city’s comfort food landscape for decades. These rice croquettes are a technical marvel, featuring a dry, golden-fried exterior that shatters to reveal a moist, herb-flecked interior with a subtle lactic tang. The Ritz Burger further emphasizes the kitchen’s precision, with a custom beef blend seared to a perfect medium, topped with crispy pancetta and sharp cheddar. Aromas of grilled meat and toasted brioche define the bustling, cosmopolitan atmosphere. The linguine with shrimp and zucchini showcases a lighter touch, where the crustaceans are poached to a translucent snap in a delicate cream sauce aerated with lemon zest. Each plate balances nostalgic flavors with a modern, professional execution, ensuring that the textures—from the crunch of onion rings to the silkiness of a chocolate gateau—are consistently refined and technically sound.
