Banzeiro Restaurant
Banzeiro Restaurant is a dining establishment in Itaim Bibi that specializes in Amazonian cuisine. The interior combines rustic wooden elements and natural tones with contemporary design, accommodating around 111 guests in a welcoming space.
The restaurant opened in 2019 after chef Felipe Schaedler decided to bring flavors from his childhood in Manaus to São Paulo. As one of the first culinary school graduates from Manaus, his training shaped the kitchen's approach and menu.
Banzeiro represents a bridge between Manaus and São Paulo by bringing authentic Amazonian food to the city. The space reflects this cultural connection through decorative elements like carved canoes and photographs that show the people and nature of the forest.
The restaurant serves lunch and dinner service, with reservations recommended to secure a table. It offers wheelchair accessibility and allows guests to bring their own wines for a fee.
The restaurant sources all ingredients from suppliers in Manaus and nearby areas, having them airlifted to maintain freshness and authenticity. This costly sourcing process allows the kitchen to offer true forest products that are otherwise difficult to find in the city.
