Esther Rooftop

Esther Rooftop is a French restaurant on the eleventh floor of a modernist building overlooking São Paulo's downtown skyline and Republic Square. Large windows frame views across the city while the open kitchen gives diners a view of the chef's work.

The restaurant opened in 2016 inside the Esther Building, which was São Paulo's first modernist structure when it was completed. This building has shaped the city's skyline for generations and remains central to understanding how the city's architecture developed.

Chef Benoit Mathurin's menu brings together French bistro cooking with Brazilian and Asian flavors, reflecting how São Paulo's dining scene draws from many cultures.

The restaurant sits at the top of the building and is only accessible by elevator, which stays pleasantly cool during the hotter months. Guests should plan for a full dining experience and come prepared for a relaxed evening.

The wine list features only Brazilian wines from small local producers, giving the region's wine culture a spotlight often overlooked elsewhere. Exploring these selections during your meal reveals sides of Brazilian winemaking that most restaurants ignore.
