The best Italian pizzerias and restaurants Brazil

For who hungry pizza or pasta, a restaurant well, but without a lot of culinary imagination. On the other hand, the place - an old, charming local manor - is a picturesque building, musical animation is of good quality and dining very frequented by female gente, especially on Sunday evening. You can try the fondue.

Good Italian restaurant.

In 2010 Chief Leandro Ricardo came to rework the menu that now offers new Italian dishes with original scents. Located in a beautiful home of one of the most turbulent avenues in Recife, it is impossible to miss it. The restaurant is deemed by its servie served on Saturdays.

The decor is Bavarian, but the kitchen is Italian. In the midst of ancient objects you can eat excellent pasta, pizza and meat. This award has been continuously acclaimed since its opening. Certainly a good address.

Since 1979, the Luigi family has been serving fine Italian cuisine in its two restaurants, Massas and Pizzas. The Luigi Massas, located in an attractive building, serves homemade pasta of the highest quality. There's an extensive buffet offering all kinds of salads (as well as quiches and cheeses). Pasta lovers will be delighted. The atmosphere is more modern in the adjoining Luigi Pizzas restaurant. On Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday evenings, pizza rodizio. On the 29th of each month, we offer gnocchi of fortune, as in Argentina.

Its blend of French, Italian and Brazilian cuisines and its creativity make it one of the best restaurants in the city. Good wine card.

Viva Bella is a beautiful establishment, ideally located. It is a bar-restaurant on the quayside, on the banks of the Rio Paraguay. The view is superb. It offers refined Italian cuisine and some local dishes (good fish). You can enjoy some cocktails while admiring the sunset on the Rio Paraguay. On Saturday or Sunday, it is often samba and feijoada. The fish moqueca is also worth trying. You can listen to good music bands on some evenings. It is the "chic" bar of the promenade and thus a little expensive.

An Italian restaurant open since 1978 and appreciated by the locals. Numerous gastronomic magazines have named Cantina Romana the best Italian restaurant in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul. You can find good pizzas cooked on a wood fire and of course a wide range of fresh pasta in a modern and rustic decor. From Monday to Friday, at lunchtime, in addition to the a la carte dishes, you can eat at the good executive buffet with meats, pastas, salads and antipasti. A sure value.

Very good Italian restaurant. A pretty chic atmosphere.

Good Italian cuisine.

The Famiglia Manzoli is a restaurant that honours the cuisine of the boot, as its name suggests. It must be said that the Manzolis are cooks from father to son, since the grandfather Tuscan, and the father, passed by the Fasano, among others. It offers a good Italian cuisine, which pasta lovers (ravioli are particularly recommended) will appreciate. The pasta is made on the spot and the veal ravioli with butter and sage sauce definitely seems to be the attraction of the place. The grilled fish is also excellent.

In this beautiful historic house in the heart of Curitiba, you can enjoy excellent gourmet pizzas and pastas to the sound of a piano playing jazz or barcarolles. Fine dough, noble ingredients, wood-fired cooking... The pizzaiolos work hard to make pizzas the Italian way... or the paulista way. The buffet of salads, antipasti and pasta at lunchtime on weekdays really honours the cuisine of the boot. You can find grilled meat (filet mignon), fish (salmon à la mode du chef). A good address.

It's not only in Sete that the idea of macaroni was imported. It was in 1979 that an Italian chef chose to tackle the culinary traditions of the Azores. It's clear that the daring wager has been won. The Macarronada is now one of the most famous restaurants in the area. This Italian cuisine is prepared with fresh ingredients chosen for their taste qualities. Fresh homemade pasta, pizzas cooked over a wood fire and carefully prepared Italian-style fish, all with a view of the sea.

Chief Pedro Pedro has been in the piano of his Italian restaurant for 18 years in a slightly rustic setting. The thematic map (Arabic, Japanese, Italian) varies daily. Live music on weekends. Good and cheap. You can even take cooking courses there.

Still in the series "a transalpine culinary presence is a guarantee of quality", Piazzale Italia will not belie this maxim. The former "Mama Italia", under the direction of the renowned chef Thiago Gomes, is a very nice and good Italian house that offers a large number of Italian dishes. On the menu are pizzas, pastas (including vongole), risottos, fish dishes and more. Veja magazine has awarded the restaurant several times as the best Italian restaurant in the city and chef Gomes as chef of the year. A pleasant address

Originally a beach restaurant, the Maremonti group, which as its name suggests promotes fine Italian cuisine, has set up one of its restaurants in the Brooklin neighborhood. The offer is varied and of high quality. Neapolitan pizzas, of course, handmade and certified by the Italian association of pizzaiolos, and a few variations (with brie, etc.), but also more sophisticated dishes (truffle risotto). Homemade pasta is not to be outdone (gnocchi, spaghetti, lasagne), including osso buco ragu . A fine address.

Housed in red-and-green Italian-style walls, just inside the tourist district of Boa Viagem, the "La Tratoria" restaurant offers fine transalpine cuisine. The classics of Italian cuisine, land and sea, are offered on a good menu, complete without being excessive. Fettucini with shrimp, gnocchi, ragù with sausage, vitarela with mushrooms. In short, fans of Mediterranean cuisine or those looking for a break from Brazilian cuisine are sure to find what they're looking for. An interesting wine list.

The Vila Bistrô, restaurant of the hotel Vila Serrana, offers a good Italian cuisine in a pleasant setting. The setting is pleasant, from the moment you enter, the team shows great professionalism. It is of course the menu that justifies a stop at this beautiful restaurant in Sete Lagoas. Mushroom risotto and filet mignon, fish moqueca which allowed the chef to reach the final of the "Chef revelation" competition, crunchy Saint-Pierre with braised vegetables, "carne do sol" risotto and chestnuts... The wine list is not to be outdone.

Galeto Di Paolo began its culinary adventure in 1994, when Giuseppe Posto Per Mangiare was opened in Garibaldi, named after the Italian grandfather. Served at the table at will, the galeto (a patty) is accompanied by fried polenta, salads, homemade pasta of choice and the famous cappelletti soup. A dessert is also included in the price. It is one of the most famous galeterias in Rio Grande do Sul, but the price is still a bit high. A reputation of excellence in the whole region.

This restaurant is an attraction in itself and can accommodate up to 4,600 people! It is the largest restaurant in Latin America. Its reputation is not only linked to its size. For the past 30 years, Mrs. Madalosso has always been in charge of the stoves of her eponymous restaurant, fortunately not alone. Her cuisine honours the Italy of her origins! All the customers are entitled to the same dishes served at the table in rodizio: fried polenta, chicken, risotto, salads, gnocchi, lasagne, rondeli, etc. A place not to be missed in Curitiba.

A casual Resto-pizzeria attended mainly by a gay clientele. You can enjoy a beer or a caipirinha while admiring the beach. 

Originally from São Paulo, the other pizza capital of the world, Pizzaria Bráz is one of the best in Rio. In this traditional setting in the Jardim Botânico district, the great Italian classics are the basis of the menu, but many variations are offered, from the classic award-winning caprese to the basic Neapolitan... or theimigrante. The wine list allows to highlight the flavours of the place. For dessert, the traditional panettone and tiramisus will satisfy the specialists.

Good Italian restaurant, card without surprises.

As you may have guessed, Leonardo da Vinci is entirely dedicated to transalpine cuisine. For many people, guests and food critics alike, it is "the" Italian restaurant in Jeri. The decor matches the menu. We have left the simple happiness of rusticity for a more cozy dimension. A part of the transalpine finesse blends here with the Brazilian generosity. Pasta and meats are in the spotlight on the main street of the village. The pizzas are among the best in Jeri. Service on the terrace. A sure value.

Live music on Thursday evening. MPB (Brazilian Popular Music), wander and jazz.

This restaurant, led by Chef Pichi, former of Emiliano and of the ancient Café, offers both a pleasant framework and a careful kitchen, which ranges from oak to robalo on its lit rice bed. Very good spaghetti with seafood. Desserts are not in rest (fruit salad with basil sherbet) The addition is not too salty. Some clients complained about the slowness of the service.

Small and inexpensive Italian restaurant. A pleasant address in a neighborhood that is no less. Good pasta and pizza, but also a whole range of Italian dishes. Zucchini stuffed at 17 réais, gnocchi at 22 réais. Open Tuesday to Sunday from 12 a. m. to 15 p. m. and from 19 p. m. to midnight.

Although the restaurant has changed address, the table is still as famous in Mariana. Dom Siverio has been serving excellent wood-fired pizzas for almost a quarter of a century! The pizzas and calzones come in a variety of options (tuna, cod, Californian). You can also eat a good dish for nothing. The lasagne or the filet parmiggiana are not bad either. The more adventurous can try the sweet pizzas (mozzarella, banana, cinnamon). The owners will give you a warm welcome.

As in Rio, the Manjericao is an excellent pizzeria that has been delighting fans of this Neapolitan dish for more than 10 years now. This pizzeria has the secret of excellent pizzas with extra-fine dough and original ingredients (taste the house specialty, pizza with basil, nuts, garlic, parmesan and catupiry). Vegetarians will not be outdone. The environment itself is very pleasant. The restaurant is well designed and warm and the team is super professional and pleasant. A sure value in Teresopolis at the right price.

In a small pink house, this restaurant, with a little retro inspiration, has become a reference to Foz de Iguaçu. It offers quality Italian cuisine, with of course pizzas and pasta, gnocchi, lasagne. The typical dessert is sagu with cream, imported to southern Brazil by Italian immigrants. We often speak of "canteen", but here we must find a noble meaning. It is indeed a place where you come to eat frequently, and at a fair price. Cachaca is offered for digestion.

In the upper town, girded in the red and green colors of Italy, the Don Francesco Trattoria is an address that honors transalpine cuisine. Close to the "Quatro Cantos", where all the Olinda carnival lines gather, don Francesco is undoubtedly one of the best Italian restaurants in the region. Spaghetti carbonara, ricotta ravioli, risotto, gnocchi... the classic and the not-so-classic are all on the menu, to the delight of gourmets. Quite good value for money.

Giuseppe Mar is a restaurant in Barra's Village Mall, dedicated entirely to seafood. The restaurant's trademark is a display case filled with ice, fish and seafood brought in daily by the teams of divers and fishermen. Depending on the day's arrivals, guests can choose from grouper, whiting or sea bass for their dishes. The prices are high but the menu, very well prepared, will certainly justify exceeding the budget.

You won't necessarily appreciate its location, in a shopping center, especially the one in Barra, far from the center and south of Rio, where tourists are usually to be found. However, once you're there, it's clear that the Gabbiano is a fine Italian restaurant, well worth "relocating" to this remote area for an evening. In fact, everything is done to make you love the place. The restaurant was designed by the architect Bel Castro, the waiters are super pro and the food very good. L'ospitalità italiana!

The Quatro Amici pizzeria is a cosy place in this lively and quiet area of Barra, a few meters from the Farol beach. It is a pizzeria with a chic restaurant service (valet parking at the entrance). The façade and the interior show a real aesthetic research. The alternation of bricks, which gives a vintage aspect, with the wood of the ceiling and the bright white walls, gives a cosy and pleasant aspect. The pizzas and Italian dishes are of good quality. The food and wine lists are rich and of high quality.
