GRÃO FINO * ITAIM BIBI/SP
Grão Fino, a mix of "restaurant and bakery", is a true refuge for those seeking healthy, tasty food and those with dietary restrictions in the heart of the city of São Paulo.
It stands out for being one of the pioneering establishments in offering gluten-free and lactose-free products in the city, which makes it a paradise for celiacs, lactose intolerants and those following specific diets.
Located in Itaim Bibi, Grão Fino surprises with its charming and welcoming atmosphere. Although it is a bakery, it also operates as a café and small restaurant, with different spaces.
There is a counter with benches at the entrance, tables inside and a delightful winter garden in the back, which is pet-friendly. This space is ideal for work meetings, get-togethers with friends and to enjoy a quiet moment with your pet.
The great difference of the place is its elaborate and diverse menu, which proves that functional food can be incredibly tasty. Everything is prepared with fresh, preferably seasonal ingredients, and the restaurant values gluten-free, lactose-free and preservative-free recipes, with several vegan and low-carb options.
Products such as breads, jams, functional pastas, peanut butters, vegan cheeses and granolas can be found at the restaurant.
Grão Fino offers a complete gastronomic experience that pleases all palates, even with dietary restrictions. In fact, it is highly recommended for those seeking a healthy and conscious diet, without sacrificing flavor and variety.

First, the opening hours are wrong. Instagram says one time and Google says another. Second, we arrived around noon and it wasn't open yet. A guy said it would open around 1:00 p.m. We returned at 1:30 p.m. and it was just us in the restaurant. Then about 6 people arrived and ordered dishes. They didn't wait for the dish to be ready and left, due to the delay in service. Our fondue was served after 2:00 p.m. and each refill took an average of 20 minutes to arrive, even though we were alone. The waiter didn't stay in the dining room, which made the service even slower. We left the restaurant at 3:40 p.m. The service and the wait were very bad. I imagine that when the restaurant is full, it must take more than 5 hours to get lunch! It's very complicated. I have celiac disease and I planned the trip and lunch at the restaurant. I'm against complaints, since it's already difficult to find safe gluten-free options, but I had to leave my comment about the terrible service provided!
I went to the burger joint without knowing it was gluten-free. I was really surprised because the flavor is better than most other burger joints. It really lives up to the good rating.
I love going to this place, the food is wonderful, the service is excellent, fast and efficient! The place is cozy, perfect for any occasion! And it's also pet friendly 🥰.
The best thing is that it's safe for celiacs ❤️

The place is not gluten-free. The gluten-free options are not for celiacs. The information is wrong and makes anyone looking for something for celiacs waste time and money.
Terrible service. I gave up and left.
I went there last Monday, June 30th, with my boyfriend, and honestly, it was the last straw. I always went to the restaurant because of the gluten-free options, but the service, which was already bad, keeps getting worse.
The waitresses are always unfriendly, without a smile on their faces, with an unfriendly expression, as if they were doing me a favor by serving me. In addition, their slovenliness in their appearance draws attention: messy hair, unkempt clothes, an expression of someone who seems to not want to be there.
This time, I wasn't even served. I went in with my umbrella (dry, by the way, since it was just drizzling), stood in front of the counter and the waitress, a short girl, who I've seen working there for a long time, just looked me up and down, paying more attention to the umbrella than to me. She didn't even say "good afternoon", didn't ask if I needed help, absolutely nothing.
I felt so bad about that cold reception and those dirty looks that I gave up on eating anything and left. And the most unbelievable thing: she saw us leaving and didn't even ask if there was a problem or if I needed anything.
It's sad, because it was the only place in Santos where I could find some gluten-free options, but I'm not going to spend my money in a place where I'm not treated well. On top of everything, the waitresses don't even have badges or identification, which makes communication and direct feedback even more difficult.
I work in employee training and development and I think it's unacceptable for a company to allow this type of service to happen. Either the company provides adequate training for these waitresses or, if there's no improvement, the right thing to do would be to replace them. Customer service is the calling card of any business and, in this case, it's terrible.
Unfortunately, as long as these people remain in the service, my boyfriend and I won't be going back. Never again.
I was there today and loved the menu, the number of options and the service! I went with my boyfriend who is celiac, I am not and even so it did not disappoint in any way, the pizza was well served and very tasty, the mini-churros were also very tasty.
I would like to highlight the great service of the attendant who works at the checkout and also when delivering the dishes, unfortunately I do not know her name, but we went in the evening and she was there.
The atmosphere is calm and clean, it is suitable for all types of groups from friends, couples and large families.
Success!
Good service, excellent vegan options. There are gluten-free options.
Pleasant space, well decorated and with plants.
They could include more dishes made from plants, and reduce the ones made from animal products over time.
They accept VR meals.
We came in April 2025 with my in-laws who are Celiac and we loved that they had a menu for them!
The really excellent girls, the incredible attention ❤️✨
The place is lovely. There are a variety of delicious options for those with gluten and lactose restrictions. We bought several products from the shop, including French bread and frozen cheese bread. At the café in the outdoor area, we tried the grilled bread and the cheese bread, which didn't even taste like it didn't have cheese. I highly recommend it. Just be prepared to pay, because everything is salty.
Excellent location and atmosphere. 10 out of 10 for the food and service above all else. The waitress, Sonia, was very friendly. The gluten-free menu was perfect.
Also the interactive paper games and drawings for children.
The food is delicious! Lots of variety of nutritious food and, even better, gluten-free. I'm not vegan, but I can't eat gluten, and I love eating there.

Tasty, gluten-free food suitable for celiac patients. Simple and friendly space. Excellent service. Location a little out of the center, but worth the trip.
Excellent. Delicious food. Safe for people with dietary restrictions (gluten and milk). Even safe for celiacs. I highly recommend it. I took family and friends. Everyone loved it.

My daughter and I are gluten sensitive and everything I buy from this bakery is a huge hit here at home!
I'm also a nutritionist and I recommend it to my patients with all my heart! Everyone loves it!
Always friendly and kind! Great salad and vegetable options. I miss vegan proteins like burgers, tofu, tempeh and recipes with legumes. I love the dessert options, which are mostly gluten-free!
Gluten-free restaurant. An oasis for those with dietary restrictions. We went for lunch and they offer a sophisticated menu with plenty of options, including seafood. The paella risotto is divine. They also offer desserts, pizzas and sandwiches.
I was excited to try this place as it was gluten free and I am celiac, as well as it had good reviews. First we went and they said they were not serving people but only take out or delivery. So we said we wanted to put in an order for takeout. They said they would not take our order unless we downloaded the delivery app. We tried but because we don't have a Brazilian phone number we couldn't use the app. So they said we couldn't order. Thankfully one of the delivery boys was kind enough to let us use his phone and ask the owner to make an exception. The woman taking the order was extremely rude. Actually seemed angry and was not kind at all. The pizza itself was okay. I have had many gluten-free pizzas around the world and this was not a pizza. This was more like a flat wrap with different types of toppings. ⁰ there was no crispness to it, It folded, like a wrap. There was almost no cheese on it. There was no sauce on it and in fact they gave us ketchup, which I thought was strange at first , but now after having eaten it I understand why. Because without the ketchup there is very little taste. I don't live in Rio, so I will never go back. Even if I lived in Rio, I would not go back.
Dishes with quality ingredients and both the delivery and the restaurant have great service. They are ethical and kind. I always order the pizza with gluten-free dough.
We ordered a stuffed tapioca, it was a great meal, well served, with delicious filling. We also ordered a gluten-free and lactose-free dessert to take home, which was delicious. I haven't found anything like it in my city yet.
The service was excellent too! It's definitely a place we'll go back to on our next visit to Itapema.
I loved the place and the gluten-free options. There are many and they are all delicious. I tried the delicious lunch and a nut and dried fruit pie, which I loved. I went back the next day to try the gluten-free chicken pie, which was simply wonderful. I highly recommend it.

I recommend this place 100%, excellent service and food. They have pasta suitable for celiacs (gluten-free), which is not abundant on Ilha Grande. I ordered them and they were very good!
The only thing I leave as a suggestion is that, like the rest, they can offer a complimentary gluten-free entree as well.
Simply the best place!!! Wonderful atmosphere with all types of food. It almost feels like we are in heaven with so many options, my girlfriend is CELIAC and we had no idea about this place. It's been our TOP 1 since we tried the first burger (which by the way, I've eaten all types of burgers and several famous places and this one, even gluten-free, was the best of all) I highly recommend it!!
Very tasty fondue and variety of sauces and accompaniments. Highlight for the sweet, truffled nest, we've never had anything like it. Perfect! Warm, cozy atmosphere. The negative points: parking, although private and without valet, is paid; the 10% fee charged at the end is calculated on top of the contracted decoration service ($40) and also parking; We understand that these are separate services, and that they should not be added to that of the waiter (great service). Anyway, even on sale, a couple who didn't even drink wine spent more than $400 (buffets, 1 beer and 1 juice). They have an option for celiac patients.
I have been a customer of Grão Real Food for at least 2 years and I am simply delighted every time I return! The restaurant has a clean, cozy atmosphere and very good service! The menu is very diverse, but with a focus on healthy eating and with many options gluten free and dairy free (protein), there are also vegetarian and vegan options and all the dishes have a presentation worthy of a Michelin star! As I am gluten intolerant and allergic to APLV, this place is perfect for me! They also serve gluten free burgers and pizza . It has a wine and sparkling wine list. I highly recommend it!
The chef and owner Daniel is a lovely person. He was very attentive to our requests for a large gluten-free dinner. He notified the kitchen in advance, and they prepared everything to avoid cross-contamination. The vegan acarajé was a huge hit! The waitress was also very friendly and always kept an eye on our table. Thank you very much Teva and Daniel team!
I looked for a pleasant environment and food free of gluten, lactose, etc. And I found everything. I had a shrimp risotto which was excellent and a wonderful chocolate cake. I loved the decoration and one or two details that aren't perfect (as a review here says) just give the place more personality. My friends, who ate without restrictions, were also satisfied.
The service is attentive, just needs a little more adjustment.
I will definitely be back.
Terrible. It was a holiday, the store was very quiet, however, everything was bad, the fries arrived a little warm, the burgers were cold, tasteless, and we also had a problem with the gluten-free bread that must have been frozen and they didn't have the decency to heat it up properly. Oh, and by the way, they charged for everything and at 13%. Never again.
The food is delicious, all options are gluten free. The coffee there is also very good and there are many sweet options, all gluten-free and some sugar-free.
On my first visit, I received excellent service from an employee whose name I unfortunately don't remember. On my second visit, I had other employees and the service was mediocre, and I had to go to the counter to get the menu and place my order.
The place is very comfortable, despite being small, and beautiful.
The food is tasty and within the gluten-free price range. However, I missed more savory options (only cheese bread and chicken coxinha).

I was treated exceptionally well (I believe it was by the owner of the bakery), he introduced me to all the products because I have just started on this gluten and lactose free diet. I bought a brigadeiro honey bread and I'm already a fan!!!!!!!!!!! The TB brownie, delicious... the oat bread, he gave me tips on how to stock up and what to eat with! I'll be back every week with ctz! Lol Success to the Functional Bakery!
